Chapter 43: SysDi 43: Willpower, Intellect and Perseverance 5
When Evan came to, it felt like he was floating on top of the water. He blinked his eyes slowly, his vision dark. He couldn’t see anything in every direction.
He couldn’t move nor could he speak. All he knew was that he is on the water, lying on his back and then... Nothing.
Then, he remembered what had happened a while ago. The heavy steps he took while he walked in the dark corridor. There was the way he forcibly and stubbornly continued even if it was hurting him.
The only thing that made him continue was his Willpower.
He persevered forward even though it hurts.
The forked paths made him use the three things the corridors mentioned they were.
Slowly, his left arm rose up, attempting to reach the ceiling. At having successfully raised his hand, he clenched his fist.
Then, he woke up.
Blinking his eyes as he woke up, Evan gasps a little. He coughed at the sudden intake of air be had to take.
The ground was dusty and he had been laying on it for who knows how long?
Evan sits up slowly, feeling as if his entire body is on fire. There is a soreness in every muscle of his, especially his lower limbs. Thankfully, his knees doesn’t hurt as much, but that’s not the same story as his thighs and his legs.
