Chapter 265
A murmur of agreement rippled through the crowd. The robed gargoyle’s words had ignited a spark of rebellion in their hearts.
"News of the two gods will soon spread across the abyss. Every resident will seek them out. Madness, blood, and flesh feasts will descend upon this layer. This is an opportunity for growth, for fame, for power. And we must ensure we grab our share of this colossal prize."
He raised his arms, as if embracing the chaos to come. "We will not wait idly by. We will seize the moment. Our ambition will carve a new path in the abyss, and we will rise above the rest."
The assembly roared in approval, their voices blending into a unified chant of rebellion. Phantom, who was among them, joined the chant but at the same time he was terrified, from the gargoyle words they are not the only one thinking the same thing and to confirm his words.
From a distance away from the gargoyle group, a three headed dog is also barking and howling with the hell hounds around it joining in to do the same.
Back in the safe house, Ikenga and keles no longer had their relaxed demeanor. Ikenga looked at his hand to find it shaking, confusion and excitement flashed in his eyes "Am i scared?" He thought to himself.
"Brother" He heard Keles call out from beside him, bringing him out of his thoughts.
Both siblings’ eyes met, at the same time widened as they both began chuckling. "We truly are a lot more similar than I thought" Keles said to Ikenga who nodded.
Ikenga’s eyes were filled with a strange, almost feverish excitement. The pandemonium around him stirred a profound, unsettling eagerness within him. He craved to immerse himself in the chaos, to actively participate and influence the course of events. It was as if the turbulence of the situation was a forbidden knowledge he longed to grasp fully.
