Chapter 412: Eighty-Ninth Floor, Demigod (5)
Kireing murmured in the darkness, unable to see even a single step ahead. Just to top things off, his sense of direction had begun to fade as well.
The only thing protecting the hundred or so resistance members was the blue-gold domain Kwon Su-Hyeok had created. Within it, the ground and buildings could still be seen.
Just beyond the edge of that domain, thousands of tiny devils stood, clearly poised to attack.
The tension born from their hostile intent was palpable. Thankfully, they couldn’t cross the domain’s threshold. The space inside remained calm and peaceful, thanks to that, albeit only by a narrow margin.
Should I be laughing or crying?
Kireing had marched here boldly to resist the controllers and reclaim their rights, yet found himself utterly powerless. It made him want to cry.
Kwon Su-Hyeok was here, though, so there was still hope. That alone was a relief, but he wasn’t sure if he even deserved to feel relieved.
Sounds of battle echoed faintly through the darkness. Small bursts of metal clashing rang out repeatedly.
Though he couldn’t see it, Kireing imagined Kwon Su-Hyeok fighting. All he had was a dagger. It was, at the very least, an appropriate weapon for dealing with miniatures.
Every now and then, a flash of lightning would flare in the distance, revealing his position.
Kireing prayed that Kwon Su-Hyeok would win.
Damn it.
