Demon City Shinjuku: the Complete Edition
“Murmurs arose here and there in the crowd, expressions of surprise.
“This guy is something else,” Kyoya said, in honest admiration.
This was the kind of edifice built in ancient times by absolute monarchs. The stone pillars rose up like a forest of trees. Beyond the “trees,” water sparkled in a man-made lake. In the lake floated a small, swan-like boat, against a background of endless green and a deep blue sky.
The columns, the floor, the great statues of ancient gods found here and... there—all were carved with extraordinary artistry and skill. The effect was truly as if they had stumbled into an enchanted castle. What kept it from descending into a child’s fairy tale was the ghostly aura that ruled the hall.
“Look at the ceiling. From the outside, it’s no more than thirty feet high. From this perspective, it goes on forever.”
