Chapter 404 Retribution

Natalie stood still, refusing to turn back.

A chilling aura emanated from her, and she said in a voice colder than before, “I’ve said it before. Whatever suffering you all endure is your own retribution!”

Having said that, Natalie continued walking without waiting for Cedric’s response. Cedric remained where he stood, enveloped in an icy coldness.

Natalie’s words echoed relentlessly in his mind, threatening to tear apart his sanity once more.

“Retribution…” He murmured softly, a suffocating feeling gripping his heart.
