"I hate this," a man muttered in a dark alley, his soft voice filled with pain. The alley was murky, with pools of water scattered around. Dirty sewage flowed through, and rodents drank from it. When they sensed a presence, they looked up and saw a small figure. They quickly scattered, screeching. "Shut up."
Apollo sighed, letting his body slump against the wall. He raised his hand, noticing parts of it were burnt and red.
"This is frustrating," he said with a bitter smile. His once somewhat decent dark robe was now gone, turned to ashes, leaving him in just his inner clothes and pants, both riddled with holes and tears. Burn marks were visible on several parts of his body, not just his hands.
He pulled up his Status Screen and saw that his Alm points had decreased.
Alm Points: 37
