Chapter 19 - Chapter 19: Pool and Plan

While on the boy's side, Jiro and Ril also saw the entrance to the underground room, they both went in and agreed to separate to look for anything useful, Jiro went to the same route Clarisse took while Ril went to the route Lilian took. Jiro kept walking straight on that route and saw many rooms swarming with spider webs, after a while, he found an opened door and saw Claire talking to an old man in fear, he eavesdrop on them, "I finished what you asked...now...can you please... please take the antidote?" Claire talked while being scared, Jiro couldn't understand anything they said but he kept listening to it

"Then...let me test my one last experiment on you, you will obey your father's orders right Claire?" The old man replied while smiling maliciously while Claire trembled in fear, she agreed by nodding her head while having a pale face, now Jiro knows Claire's current situation, he wanted to go into the room to take Claire but someone stopped him and put their hands on his mouth so that he wouldn't make any sounds, it was actually Clarisse holding him back, "Don't act too rashly" she whispered, Jiro's eyes widened and was surprised by Clarisse.

He took her hands off him and said "What am I gonna do? Just sit here and watch her get experimented by her own father?" His tone was angry and worried at the same time, Clarisse closed her eyes and sighed, she opened it again and said "Let's wait for a perfect moment to attack, I already have a plan in mind"

While on the room Lilian went, a corrupted human suddenly appeared and it startled her, it was going to attack her but luckily, she avoided it. But still, the sides of the pool are too narrow, if she makes one mistake while fighting the corrupted human, there's a probability that she will fall on the pool and drown so she was anxious the whole time, suddenly, so many corrupted humans started piling up from the pool. Now she has no choice but to forget all her fears and seriously fight them without thinking about the pool, she summoned her spear weapon while the looks of her eyes changed and let out a very powerful aura. She resonated her weapon with her manipulation of gravity and duplicated her spear into 7, then she closed her eyes and crossed her arms in front of her chest, she slowly breathed in.....and breathed out, she opened her eyes while looking so fierce and her 7 spears charged an attack the the corrupted humans. While the spear was charging an attack to her enemies, she quickly went near them and pointed her right hand toward them that was resonated with her powers and tightened the grip of her hands grouping all the corrupted humans, by the time they grouped, all her spears stucked to them and finished them quickly.

After the fight, she breathe in relief and made her spear disappear but her only problem is that she's on the other side of the pool and the fact that the sides are narrow, she had to be careful on her every step because her foot might slip anytime, until, she heard someone trying to open the door, she became wary of it and her hands was on position preparing to fight, then suddenly, the door opened and she saw a familiar face, it was Ril. Ril also saw Lilian and stated her name "Lilian!"

Lilian felt relieved that she wasn't alone anymore and she also stated his name "Ril-" but her words cut off because her foot slipped on the side of the pool making her fall into the deep pool,

"LILIAN!!!" Ril shouted her name while she slowly fell into the pool, the moment Lilian fell into the pool, she was scared, she can't swim and she was struggling underwater, and it was very dark, she can't see anything on the water. Little did she know something already injured a part of her legs and she felt it, her legs started hurting and it will hurt more if she keep moving her legs, she was trembling in cold and fear while letting out tears from her eyes and she thought to herself 'Someone... please...help...I.....I can't.... breathe....." She cried while pointing her right arm above.
