The candles was lit creating creepy shadows at the walls. The path was getting narrower, as the steps get bumpier. The youth sitting at the wheelchair inhaled a breath.
This can't go on. The farther they walk, the more they felt suffocated. He felt Claustrophobic, the place was truly enclosed so only a little Air can pass through. He can even feel Astrophel's heavy breathing.
' 0017. Give me something that can make us breath freely. I felt like dying. '
The system heard it's owner's urgent voice making him anxious and hurriedly gave the skill towards it's Host.
[ Host This ' Air Oxygen ' skill can only be used once a day. It has a long period of cooldown, but it should be enough. ]
The youth thanked him before activating the skill. He felt a fresh breeze pass through them, as it continued to circulate. He finally released a sigh of relief after seeing Astrophel's comfortable appearance.
After who knows when they finally saw an enclosed door. It was already rusty and old, probably due to being exposed for such a long time. It didn't even need a key, since anyone can just kick it open.
The door opened with a loud thud as the thick dust rolled. Zenith gazed inside, it was a room fully furnished. The room was spotlessly clean as if it was new. Time didn't seem to Leave traces inside this room.
A bed wide enough to fit three person was placed indifferently, showcasing the owners cold and elegant taste. The books was neatly placed towards the bookshelves. In the bedside table was a picture of a young handsome man.
Zenith took the picture and observed the man inside the photo. The man's profile was simply handsome. Unfortunately, his cold and indifferent eyes made the entire picture gloomy enough to scare a four year old child.
The youth squinted his eyes while thinking. This man really looked familiar. Where have he seen him? Suddenly an idea seemed to stuck him. No way! He suddenly remembered the man inside the painting. Isn't it him? So this man was actually the former owner of this house?
He suddenly had a very bad premonition. It seems like the mysteries had something to do with the man!
" This man is weird. "
A voice suddenly sounded behind him making his heart jump. Thankfully, it was just Astrophel. This guy! He's scaring him too much.
Hah-
" Yeah, he's the former owner of this house. "
Astrophel quietly glanced at the youth. He doesn't want to alarm the youth but he and the man does seems to be 90% alike. They had the same eye color, the same height, the same stature. If it weren't for their different hair colors, you would think he and the man was the same person.
Fortunately, the youth was dazedly gazing at the picture.
