For a while, Haruto's vision was swallowed by an impregnable darkness. Strangely, it felt… nostalgic.

Once again, the power of sight had been stolen from him. Although not visibly, he tried to grit his teeth in annoyance.

Soon enough, his vision began to clear, and his eyes adjusted to the familiar pale, dull light provided by a cluster of logs brought together and licked slowly by a small flame.

Ting!

[You have discovered the Hollow Spire]

Haruto's breath hitched.

‘Eh?’

‘Where am I?’

The pale light was nearly enough to see the four faces ahead of him and in front of the fire, like he was.

The fire cast shadows over their faces. But it was just enough to know what they looked like. They all surrounded the fire — including Haruto.

As far as gender was concerned, all three were men. Well, except the one directly opposite him. He had pale blonde hair, short hands, short legs, short body, slightly oversized head that made his grey eyes loo

    “What do the chitin walls look like?” Haruto, making a taciturn expression, looked ahead into the smoke and bones. The dwarf dropped his book. “It was built by the spire lord himself, it's made of countless nightmare meat and bones. Haruto shivered. ‘How ruthless’ He couldn't imagine how harrowing the walls would look. Shifting ever so lightly, he turned to look at the darkness behind them, then back at the space ahead. Then, he dusted a bit of ashen sand of his tunic, then he said: “Think we'll make it?” The dwarf looked ahead into the smoke too and shook his head in doubt. “Probably” After a moment or two, he added: “If we don't encounter an Undead Commander we might just make it.” Haruto furrowed his brows. “Undead Commander?” The dwarf shifted, as if uncomfortable in his current position. Then, he explained: “In the Hollow Spire, Undead creatures had ranks, the first one were Graveborns. They were always found outsi

  • Chapter 30: Quantum Malevolence

    The thousand piercing punctures was a passive skill. It demanded piercing objects which would be used to pierce the victim at specific locations on the body. And guiding essence…or mana in Haruto's case through the piercing objects, one could circulate that mana through the orifices to wherever the victim was affected in the body and heal it. The only hindrance to this rule was the quality of objects used, one could not just use any. But something like a relic, one injected with essence or any other supernatural element. Which in Haruto's case, was mana. Normally, people who mastered this skill, according to Haruto's guess, would have to carry something like needles around every time. But, wouldn't it be stressful to carry needles around all the time? That was what Haruto thought. More so, the thought of being stabbed by the needles in the pocket wasn't a pleasant one. So, one had to improvise. ‘Not that I even have pockets now’ Unlike other sentinels, he had t

  • Chapter 29: A Mad God's Painting

    Now that Haruto was severely wounded, walking that was so hard already, in the unending darkness of the harrowing shore suddenly felt much harder. The dwarf would've helped but the damn creature was just too short. Besides, crouching was the last thing he wanted to do right now. For fear of breaking his already aching back. After all, this body was weak and couldn't withstand so much as he had done in one night. He could've stopped to rest. But that only meant death for the both of them. It was a huge gamble, but they just kept going north in hopes of getting so far away from the reaches of the black sea before the songs began. Gods! They could've been going sideways. But, trying was better than sitting down and doing nothing. Turns out their gamble was right. The dwarf smiled excitedly: “Look! Light” Sure enough, as they moved, the darkness started to dissipate, and dissipate, and dissipate. Until it was no more. Then there was light. A l

  • Chapter 28: A Short Battle With The Night

    Even wild beasts needed rest after running for hours. They were soon surrounded by pitch black, eerie darkness again. Haruto could see just fine, but the dwarf had lost his ability to see again. Both of them stood panting heavily with dry raspy gasps. They were out of breath, their stamina reserves had run dry. Of course that was to be expected, since they'd run for…who actually knew how long? Haruto's guess was 20 minutes. But… ‘Curses’ Stopping. They couldn't stop, they just couldn't. The sea would sing soon. Even at this distance, after seeing the sea himself, he felt like he was never going to get out of its reach. ‘Damn it!’ Swallowing hard, Haruto looked at the dwarf and said lowly: “We can't stop” The dwarf nodded. They wanted to continue running, as they'd before they stopped. But something halted them. The shadows suddenly moved. Jagged spikes, miry obsidian filled empty sockets in place of eyeballs, and four long limbs that ended with

  • Chapter 27: A Crazy Plan Begets A Befitting Reward

    They were silent, and shivering, consumed by fear. Both Haruto and the dwarf. Staring back at the deep black night, immensely tenebrous, miry of deep obsidian. It eclipsed their vision, the dwarf the most. All they could do was stare back at the unwavering gaze of the night. The dwarf was holding a piece of properly tied grass in his hands, with all the might he had left in his joints. Turning his head ever so lightly and robotically, not daring to shift his gaze from the night. Haruto wanted to ask, but he thought better of it and stared back ahead. “Rowan Twig” The dwarf whispered. Haruto twisted his head again, and said, almost silently. “What?” “The women from our village, fetish as they are, say it invokes the spirit of the Rowan god. Chases away evil spirits. They swore to it.” Said the dwarf with a shaky voice. Haruto turned sharply, receiving a corresponding jolt of pain from his hind leg as a result. He groaned in pain. “Shh, keep it l

  • Chapter 26: A Creature Made From Darkness.

    Consumed by terror, Haruto silently crouched behind a stone statue. The darkness was so thick, he was literally ignorant of anything going on. For a while, there was silence. Then, he heard sounds of clashing steel. It made him wonder was whatever horror had shown up made from steel?. Then suddenly, a loud, pained wail disturbed the silence of the eerie darkness. That was the voice of the knight. Haruto gritted his teeth. ‘Being a girl sucks!’ He couldn't exactly tell the whereabouts of the dwarf or the gargoyle. Their group had suddenly scattered immediately the dwarf gave the call. Haruto touched his chest. His heart was beating madly, like a caged beast struggling to break free. His pulses slammed against his ribs. ‘Am I going to die?’ The question hit him and he reminisced. Surely, the system wouldn't want him to die. It had said so on the first day. Right?. There had to be a way. If he was going to kill the spire lord, was
