Chapter 116: Desire to Slaughter
Under the pale, ghastly glow of the Illumination spell, the surrounding environment looked skeletal.
Ansu maintained one Illumination spell after another, his eyes fixed on the distant darkness as he took on the role of the sentry.
The cult pursuers and the monsters in the dark had yet to appear, and the team had been resting in the corridor for quite a while. Ansu took this opportunity to discuss the previous topic with Celia.
"What did it feel like just now?"
"I wanted to kill. I really wanted to kill someone," Celia said, leaning lazily against Ansu's chest while uttering terrifying words. "I even wanted to kill all of you."
She looked up into Ansu's eyes and continued her explanation.
"Ever since we reached this floor, I've felt like shadows were flickering before my eyes. Those things are persistent; they keep mocking me and trying to provoke me. If you hadn't woken me up in time... I'm afraid something truly terrible would have happened."

"What about now?" Ansu curiously waved his hand in front of her eyes. "Can you still see them?"
