It was also because of the smell that might appear next.
More importantly, he had to go inside.
As for letting Roslor stay behind while he led the way?
He had already tried that, but with the narrow confines of the ventilation duct, he couldn't move properly, and with just his arm strength, he couldn't pull Roslor at all.
So, he had no choice but to stay behind.
Then...
What would he encounter?
The despair on Pers' face became increasingly evident.
At that moment, he even entertained the thought of just dying.
But in the end, he still crawled into the ventilation duct.
In the following time, Roslor led the way, and Pers followed behind, inching closer to their destination.
Of course.
It was accompanied by a rather prolonged noise.
When they finally reached their goal, Pers was nearly suffocating.
"Sorry, sorry."
Roslor looked apologetically at the oxygen-deprived Pers.
Pers shook his head, without speaking.
