Chapter 82: Secret Path
We walked through the narrow path behind the fake waterfall. The tunnel was so tight that only one person could pass at a time. Beltimore led the way, followed by Bob, then me, with Alice bringing up the rear.
My heart pounded faster with each step.
The illusion covering the waterfall meant someone had intentionally hidden this path. That alone raised more questions than answers.
According to Beltimore’s deduction, if this illusion was truly the work of someone, then whoever cast it might be waiting in the chamber up ahead.
Was it just a person who wanted some me time, away from people?
Or was it someone dangerous?
If it was the first, then we could just leave them be.
But if it was the second... then another battle was waiting for us.
Despite everything I had faced so far, my stomach still growled before every battle. It seemed my body had not yet gotten used to the battlefield.
After several minutes of walking, Beltimore suddenly stopped.
His abrupt halt made me bump into Bob’s fat body, which earned me an annoyed grunt.
