I struggled to open my eyes, feeling a heaviness in my head and I felt like my hands were strangely fixed to something.
When my vision cleared, the sight in front of me startled me. The sound of chains echoed, and I realized my hands were chained to the wall.
I found myself amid a ruined building, with barrels on fire and a couch in the center. There was only the structure of the building, and darkness enveloped everything. Faint voices reached my ears.
This is a nightmare. I should have seen it coming. So, the two shadows I saw that night were Ara, but how? There must be someone who knows my identity and deliberately brought her to see me that night.
I never thought that child would seek revenge against me in such a way. In the first place, how did she know about the Malevolent Marauders? How did she know that I was their number one enemy?
There was something that didn't add up, something missing.
