Chapter 93
Before Alex stood a humanoid figure, rigid and lifeless, sitting at a table. Overwhelmed by shock and fear, Alex cautiously scanned the eerie presence with his divine senses. After a few attempts, he confirmed the figure's lifelessness; there was no heartbeat or any sign of activity within the body.
With a sigh of relief, Alex examined the emaciated figure before him. The body appeared desiccated, as though its blood and flesh had been drained, leaving behind a skeletal frame. The skin was ghostly pale, resembling porcelain, and the figure's white hair framed a calm yet troubled face. Alex found himself unable to decipher the emotions the person had experienced in their final moments.
