As he touched the dark dagger, Vicente felt as if part of his soul had been sucked into the blade of the underworld.
But an instant later, when Rex called out to him, he found himself once again in the place where the phenomenon of the opening of the Gates of Hell was rapidly passing.
"Has something happened, master?" Prisiche left her form and became the female version he normally saw her as.
"That creature marked me, or rather, gave me a soul invitation. His dagger has connected to my soul and may give me access to something."
"Something?" Bert asked from his knees, still trying to breathe properly. "What?"
"I'm not sure..." Vicente broke out in a cold sweat, imagining something. 'The Gates of Hell? Did he invite me to hell?'
The idea itself made him shudder, wondering what would happen if he went to such a dimension. Would he die? Would he go body and soul? Or perhaps only his soul would pass through the Gates of Hell?
