Chapter 676: The Cursed Vaults - The Vault of Ice!
Kai had been putting the search, and later destruction, of the Cursed Vaults on hold so thoroughly that he hadn't even begun looking for their locations.
So, when he found himself standing in a corridor on the 5th floor, Kai at least learned the location of one of them.
Standing tall, Kai's short, white hair stirred without wind.
He was wearing a white greatcoat over white pants and shoes, his hands clasped behind his back. His reptilian, hazel eyes donned purple demonic rings, making even the darkness itself shudder as he examined his surroundings.
Kai frowned.
Almost all students had gone on holidays; a challenging task to accomplish in these dark times.
However, the ministry, on Madam Villanelle and others' expert opinions, had found it reasonable to give students' mental health preferences, too. Letting them catch up with family was only one of the submitted tips.
So, the silence in the corridor wasn't surprising to Kai.
It was the chill.
Moreover, the Ad Infinitum had already generated the identity of the Hogwarts' intruder with accompanying theories about the said person's presence.
Among the three of them, Kai thought, stepping forward, only Meg is experienced enough to leave the Bounded Field and infiltrate the castle to look for clues.
