Who's That Guy?!
Darkness came after light.
Although the top of the place was brightly lit, even giving them a sense of warmth, the hole that they jumped into was filled with pitch-black darkness.
It was an inky-black darkness that lingered, filling their vision.
It was strange, seeing how the light up above didn't spill into the darkness below.
Yet, even though all they did was land at the bottom, they could feel the power that washed over their bodies, bathing them in a subtle glow that came from the inside. It was a magic that wasn't intrusive, but it was obviously probing them to make sure that they weren't a threat.
They couldn't help but feel it was more automatic instead of being anything conscious. Just as the magic above had been.
It quickly disappeared after scanning them, and they frowned.
That should be Harou's master, right?
But they couldn't see anything in the pitch-black darkness.
