The Nian Beast, seeing Sol's furrowed brows, stared at him with a hint of amusement in its eyes as it said.
"I didn't kill those kids in Peace Lake Village; they were already dead. I simply took their appearance and pretended to be them, but when the parents found out they spun this fantasy that I'm some hideous creature that was stealing their children in the middle of the night, when in fact their children died from their negligence to keep them away from the nearby forest infested with wild animals."
"If you're telling the truth and this isn't some trick to get me feeling sorry for you, then why did Su Jin go to Peace Lake Village?"
The Nian Beast moved away from Sol's face and then went back to his chest to lie down.
"I might as well tell you the true story since you don't have long left to live. Consider it my parting gift as it's not every day that geniuses like you are born into this world."
However, as casual as the Nian Beast was, his arms were still holding Sol down.
