"Arf! Arf! Arf!..."
The woman struggled to distance herself from the house and reach a place where she wouldn't feel that immense weight. But even after crawling a few steps away, she couldn't free herself from that damned pressure—a pressure that made her entire body feel as if it were being crushed against the floor, or as though she were being trampled by a being who, in every respect, was infinitely larger and superior to her.
Despite all that pressure, she continued crawling slowly until she finally reached the end of the stairs. 'I wonder if he managed to get to the room...?' she thought, fearful of moving any further away.
She turned her head slightly to catch a glimpse of the house, and after a few seconds, she closed her eyes, then turned her head back to continue forward, thinking, 'It's not as if I could be of any use in this situation...'
However, before she could start crawling again, the woman heard a deafening, piercing squawk coming from inside the house, echoing in her ears. At the sound, her instinct was to immediately turn to look at the house. But before that could happen, she found herself paralyzed, overcome with fear.
Although she had struggled so hard to keep moving, suddenly she couldn't move at all. Not even a finger budged; she could barely breathe. Even though she was in the fourth stage of Foundation Establishment—which naturally made her body countless times more resilient than that of an ordinary person—it seemed as though her resistance was burning from within and becoming utterly obsolete.
'What is this...?!' she thought.
'What kind of being could possibly create such pressure?!'
Her thoughts, growing slower and slower, ceased completely in mere moments, and along with them, her vision darkened as her eyes began to close slowly.

Even from outside the office, the guards could clearly hear Arthur's shouts as he addressed the elders.
"What are you doing here, old men? My decision will not be changed!" he declared. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
"...We've already said that we are the elders of this family, so you have no right to treat us this way," replied the old man.
