Chapter 75: Who Do You Do This With?
Charles sank through the water with Kaira, his heart pounding faster by the second—th-thump-th-thump.
’How can this lake be so damn deep!?’ he thought, feeling his air slipping away.
Despite his instincts screaming to swim upward, the truth was Charles couldn’t swim.
’Are we gonna die like this!?’ he shouted in his mind. ’Hey, do something!’
But seeing Kaira just letting herself be carried, doing nothing—’Crap.’
Charles fought to stay calm, reminding himself panic would only make things worse.
’Gotta think fast!’ he urged himself.
Swimming wasn’t an option, and apparently, relying on Kaira wasn’t either.
’Best bet is to hit the bottom and push off to jump up...’
It was a risky plan, but the most viable one he had. Plus, it’d let him test his powers more.
As they descended, Charles prayed they wouldn’t run into some monster in the deep.
