Tommy did not understand...
He only heard what the pretty young man with the silver hair say about the darkness...
It was invading, devouring, controlling...
What exactly did he mean.
"Wait... I don't get it?"
Tommy tried to ask but the pretty man only released a small smile.
"You have till daybreak... The moment you figure it out, your success should be certain! All I can say is... The darkness will guide you."
Tommy took in that last sentence, but almost immediately his face twisted with more confusion. Something that is invading and devouring— shouldn't that be harmful?
Why on earth will it guide him?!
However, before he could ask another question, the Ascended body turned illusory.
He was gone.
Tommy took a deep breath and then, he decided to trust the man... Since he said that the darkness would guide him there was absolutely no refuting him.
Slowly, he stepped into the billowing darkness and it surged terrifyingly at first contact.
Tommy suddenly felt as if, something was awakening and then creeping through his skin and looking for a way in, almost in the same way as a bloodsucker.
It really is invading...
Tommy released all pent up breath. He did say that I should lock my self up... the darkness is invading...
Tommy Instantly denied the darkness access and it became as hard as steel only releasing white sparks when rubbed by the darkness.
Suddenly—
You Dare Lock Me Out? We Would See Who Laugh Last!!
Tommy froze... did the darkness just, speak to him?
Tommy used a second to scan his vision around the darkness only to realize that it churned like a restless sea.
Did I hallucinate?
Tommy wondered. However, he did not.
A split second later, a colossal giant made up of the true, darkness emerged from the heart of this same darkness– revolting and magnanimous.
A shiver suddenly crawled down Tommy's spine.
I Will Make Sure You Willingly Let Me In!!!
Tommy felt his blood suddenly run cold as this massive colossus raised a fist, packed with terrifying power and then... Slamming it down, causing the darkness to part like paper.
Oh no... Fear!
Tommy immediately realized again that with every strand of fear that ensued him, his steel defense that locked out the darkness weakened.
In the end, this powerful fist did not slam into him- instead, the fist turned into a terrifying surge Instantly breaching his defenses and invading his body.
That moment, Tommy remembered that the Silver haired man asked him to seal his soul the moment the darkness invaded his body.
Invading his body– and then... His soul is the next target which would eventually deceive him.
But his soul immediately grew cold... the darkness was really invading faster than before and that's because, the fear from the last encounter was still fresh in his mind.
Taking another deep breath, he Instantly concealed his soul and the darkness surged like a raging storm– almost as if it was angered.
You Dare Conceal Your Soul? Feel The Wrath Of My Double Edged Scythe!!!
Tommy's eyes twitched and Instantly, all of the darkness converged and, formed a harrowing scythe.
The universe of darkness glitched and then, ferociously, an insane pressure descended like a bad omen...
The scythe incensed his fear and when this scythe landed, it instantly invaded his soul... devoured and consumed him.
Tommy's eyes suddenly turned listless.
