"Kh...Huuu...huuu..."
My chest burned with every breath I took. The pain was unbearable. It almost felt as though I was breathing fire, but...
"Keep breathing."
The familiar voice and hand pressing against my back prompted me to keep breathing in the same manner as before.
It was hard.
Very hard.
In the process of dropping the boulders into the hole, I almost passed out from overexertion.
It would have been catastrophic if Han Yufei hadn't dragged me away and hidden me in a corner to help me. Fortunately, as this seemed to be a common scene, none of the demons took particular notice of me.
"...You're almost there."
Han Yufei's voice echoed out once more. Clenching my teeth, sweat dripped down from the side of my face as it sizzled on the steaming hot ground.
"Ugh."
