Chapter 35
"Ugh...!"
Darkness filled everything around me.
In that darkness, I felt something cold and squishy slither up my ankle.
Something thick, coiling around my leg like a snake, climbing upward — it was definitely the black tentacle-like thing I had seen just before being dragged in.
A chill ran down my spine.
In the pitch-black darkness where not even a speck of light shone, I struggled to tear it off, but instead of freeing myself, I found both my arms pinned down by something too.
Whether it was another tentacle or something else, I couldn’t tell — I couldn’t see a thing.
'Why can’t I break free?'
If it were my normal body, maybe.
But right now, I was in an S-rank state after using a Hidden Skill.
And yet, whatever this was, it was completely restraining me.
Even if the darkness filling the office was someone’s skill, and even if the opponent was an S-rank, restraining me this completely should have been impossible.
