Chapter 987: Abyss itself

The world turned dark for Karyk. 

When he opened his eyes again, he was looking at the world from a completely different perspective. 

He found himself in the embrace of the thief who had carried him out of the puddle of blood. 

Despite being in the body of a child, Karyk could still feel his connection to the Abyss. It was as if he was being torn away from his true home while still being connected to his home. 

The thief left the hidden realm and appeared inside the Palace. Along the way, he observed his surroundings, searching for any sign of guards. To his surprise, he found the path completely empty.

Not a single guard was present. It was as if everyone had simply disappeared into nothingness. He went upstairs and still couldn't find anyone. 

Even when he left the Palace, there was no one to be found. All the Guards that were standing outside the Palace had disappeared.
