Rather than saying that it is a shadow, it is better to say that it is a body of water, or vines, or tentacles... In short, it is those things that are entangled and full of fluidity.
It was a thick black color, circling under the young man's feet, extending its tentacle-like limbs to climb up along the stool legs and the young man's trouser legs, and spreading to below the young man's knees.
The shadow seemed so thin that the young man didn't notice it at all. All his attention was focused on the mobile phone screen on the table. The shadows on the ground also seemed to be cautious. They lingered in a range that was neither too big nor too small, and it seemed that entanglement with the young man's calves was enough to satisfy them.
Is this a living thing?
The woman thought so subconsciously, and then she immediately corrected her idea... For monsters like them, whether something is alive or not is the most meaningless thing. They should ask whether that thing has independent consciousness.
That rose was the most terrifying and desirable thing in the world. The woman could still recall the excruciating pain she felt when she drank the rose water. And the rose was actually eaten entirely by one person. This sounded incredible enough.
Perhaps the appearance of this handsome young man is just an appearance? Perhaps a concept far more terrifying than that shadow is hiding under this thin skin.
Could such a person be their high priest? Paradise and the flower garden had been destroyed, and they only had the Ark and Heaven left. If he went mad... The woman thought of the monster created by Rose and shuddered slightly.
The woman had been staring at the shadow under the young man's feet, and she was fascinated by it without realizing it, as if she was standing on a bottomless trench, filled with sticky liquid, and she was sinking...sinking...sinking into the depths of darkness...
“Oh—woo—”
At this moment, the long cry of seabirds was heard in the distance, which indicated that the ship was approaching the land. It was thanks to this sound that the woman behind the flowers suddenly woke up!
Cold sweat soaked her back, and she suddenly realized that she was almost doomed. The woman immediately turned her head away, and she retreated silently, no longer having any curiosity.
She felt her heart, which had been silent for many years, beat a little. She didn't expect that it almost broke this time. What kind of monster could eat that rose? How could she be so conceited that she could observe calmly?
Half the lights on the deck had gone out.
Only then did people realize that the sky in the distance was already turning pale, and morning had arrived unknowingly.
Soon, the rippled sea surface was gradually dotted with light. When these tiny lights accumulated into thousands of feet of golden light, a red sun jumped out of the boundary between the ocean and the sky.
Morning came, and they were about to arrive in "Heaven".

In the mobile game, the final act of "Luxury" grandly unfolds.
Since it is the climax of the drama, the stage setting after the curtain opens will certainly not disappoint. It is a huge crimson palace with snow-white jasmine flowers piled in every corner, and under the jasmine flowers is coagulated blood.
In the center of the picture is the tyrannical and extravagant lord, who burst out with terrifying power, and all the guests participating in the banquet turned into corpses.
The only one who could still stand in front of the lord was the protagonist. Jasmine had fallen into madness and rage, and there seemed to be blood in her smoky gray eyes.
The tone of the music was also changing. More and more orchestral instruments were playing together, pushing the music to a climax. Su Yun could actually distinguish the timbre of the organ from this grand ensemble.
In the game, the protagonist subdued Jasmine, and blood gushed out from both of their bodies. The protagonist's blood dyed Jasmine's white and gold dress red, and the layers of gorgeous clothes were dirty, but all this made her face more noble and beautiful, until... the blood splattered on Jasmine's face.
The mist in those smoky gray eyes finally cleared, and the shadow of the protagonist was clearly reflected.
At this point, the third group of protagonists was successfully captured by the protagonist.
"Luxury" ended, the magnificent melody slowly calmed down, those harmonious instruments stopped playing one by one, and in the end only one instrument was left... that was the organ.
This holy behemoth is telling a sad and sweet story with its deep resonance.
Su Yun seemed to have returned to the evening when Jasmine revealed her true form. There was a strong scent of jasmine in the church built by the devil.
On the screen, as the curtain fell, the music gradually faded out, and the third chapter ended completely. However, this did not mean that the game ended here, because immediately afterwards, the prelude to the fourth chapter sounded faintly.
The overture of this chapter is also composed of string music, but it is mixed with the sound of gentle bells. The overall sound is cheerful and gentle, reminiscent of frivolous laughter.
