Angor's mind became more agitated as the sound of footsteps got louder.
The owner of the steps did not enter the study. He went into another room first.
Angor considered and decided to go check it out on his own. If it was a monster, Angor could escape better in the living room, which had more space.
With that in mind, Angor stood up quickly.
The chair he was sitting on was pushed backward by his legs along with his action. It knocked into the wall and created a "bam".
The small noise sounded loud and clear in the absolute silence. Even Angor himself was startled by the sudden sound.
"Who is it?" A low, raucous voice came from the neighboring room.
The familiar voice reminded Angor of Sunders' image immediately. Unlike the younger Sunders' voice, this one carried less immaturity and more calmness.
Is it really Sunders?
"Is that Angor?" The man left the next room and walked toward Angor's position.
