As he took a step, the others followed closely behind, afraid of falling behind.
The image of the human head lanterns had left a deep impression on them; it was truly a case of dying if they didn't keep up for even a single step.
In an instant, everyone left. During this time, no one spoke a word to the young woman. She stood at the pinnacle of morality, yet she seemed to be isolated by everyone.
The young woman stared blankly at the departing crowd, a look of resentment on her face. She couldn't understand why, when she was clearly in the right, these people chose to stand on the wrong side.
