Kono Ko ja Nai! Manhua

Title: Not This Child! In a serene village, a mother named Akari had her world turned upside down when her missing child, Yuki, was found wandering back home. Though relief washed over her at first, it quickly dissipated as strange occurrences began to unfold. Yuki's demeanor grew eerie, her once bright eyes now hollow and distant. A restless night jolted Akari awake to find Yuki ominously standing by her bedside, a chilling presence lingering in the room. Determined to uncover the truth, Akari shadowed Yuki the next day, leading her deep into the forbidding forest. What she stumbled upon was a nightmare incarnate. A secret clearing revealed cloaked figures engaged in a mystic ritual, with Yuki at the center exuding an unearthly aura. As fear clutched her heart, Akari's attempts to flee were thwarted, the cloaked figures closing in menacingly. In a desperate bid for salvation, Akari clutched a long-forgotten amulet, invoking its dormant powers. A blinding radiance erupted from the amulet, banishing the malevolent figures into oblivion. Yuki collapsed, her eyes returning to their familiar innocence. Tear-streaked and contrite, she sought solace in her mother's embrace, plagued by remorse for the darkness that had bewitched her. As dawn painted the sky in hues of hope, Akari and Yuki emerged from the forest, their bond reforged by trials unforeseen. Armed with love and resilience, they embarked on a new chapter, ready to confront any adversity that dared cross their path. The legend of Akari and Yuki resonated across generations, a testament to the indestructible fortitude of a mother's love and a daughter's redemption in the face of malevolence.
