As the final bell rang, signaling the end of the school day, Ahmet gathered his belongings with a sigh of relief. The lesson had been a blur, his mind still preoccupied with the enigmatic interface and the strange notifications it had been sending him.
Dragging his feet as he made his way out of the classroom, Ahmet couldn't shake the feeling of lethargy that weighed him down. All he wanted was to go home, to retreat to the safety of his own room and try to make sense of the chaos swirling around him.
But as he walked down the deserted hallway, a prickling sensation crept up the back of his neck, sending a shiver down his spine. Glancing over his shoulder, Ahmet's heart skipped a beat as he caught sight of a shadowy figure lurking in the shadows.
For a moment, Ahmet froze, his mind racing with fear and uncertainty. Who was this person, and what did they want with him? But before he could gather the courage to confront them, a warning flashed across the interface in front of him.
System Warning: Murderous intent near the player
Ahmet's breath caught in his throat as he read the message, his pulse quickening with a surge of adrenaline. But instead of heeding the warning, he dismissed it as a glitch, a figment of his overactive imagination.
Shaking his head to clear away the lingering sense of unease, Ahmet continued on his way, his footsteps echoing in the empty corridor. But no matter how hard he tried to convince himself that everything was fine, a nagging doubt lingered in the back of his mind, whispering of danger lurking just out of sight.
And as he stepped out into the fading light of the evening, Ahmet couldn't shake the feeling that he was being watched, that someone, or something, was following him with eyes full of malice.
But try as he might to ignore it, the truth remained: danger was closing in, and Ahmet was completely unprepared to face it.
