Cannot be Underestimated

The room I was in was covered in a faint, foggy pink light. It was almost hypnotic, making my vision turn a bit blurry, as if I were unable to focus on what was before me.

The room itself was also a mystery. It wasn't the same style as the one we're staying in, with glass walls around. Rather, this one looked more like a motel style, one that I was more familiar with.

"Welcome, Will."

"...!"

At that moment, a voice called to me. I turned to the source, and from within the pink fog, a figure appeared. It was...

"Queen Tala!"

I quickly tried to stand up, but weirdly, I couldn't put strength into my limbs. By reflex, I even tried to activate [Lifeblood], but it was useless. I can't move!

"Fufu,"

As she approached the struggling me, she let out a soft, seductive laugh.

"Don't worry, Will. We're not here to harm you, but rather the opposite."

"... We?"
