¡¡¡¡¡Check out my second book! Villain: Herald of Shadows!!!! ****** Shrouded in a veil of mystery and darkness, a sinister threat lurks among the shadows, weaving its plan from the depths of a forgotten past. The emergence of this voracious darkness threatens to devour everything in its path, and as Anthony embarks on a desperate quest for truth, he faces moral dilemmas, betrayals he never imagined, and sacrifices that defy all logic. On his journey, every shadow seems to hide a secret, every step toward the light reveals a new layer of darkness. Who is friend and who is foe in this dangerous game between light and darkness? What ancient forces stir beneath the surface, waiting for their moment to emerge and ravage everything in their path? With each discovery, Anthony delves deeper into a labyrinth of intrigue and danger, where the very future of his world hangs by a thread, and the only certainty is that truth is even more elusive than the shadows that conceal it.
"What do you think?" Anthony asked, looking at the strange circle filled with decomposing corpses. The smell was unbearable; he even had to cover his nose. He glanced at Persephone; she was perfectly fine, seemingly indifferent to the smell. He watched as her green eyes landed on the corpses on the ground.
"I'm not entirely sure, but I believe there's a rune beneath this place," Persephone said hesitantly. "It causes anyone who approaches to die within seconds." She hesitated for a few more minutes before continuing, "There's a protective aura around the circle that prevents mana from penetrating it," she concluded finally.
