Chapter 899: We have a guide

In an unknown place, there was absolute darkness. It was a space that seemed to stretch as far as the eyes could see, with no end at sight. 

At times, it seemed like a prison. At other times, it felt like the end of the universe. However, amidst the darkness, a pair of eyes opened. 

The eyes were bloodshot, but they held something incomprehensible within them. 

"Is this the beginning?" A desolate voice echoed in the endless void before the eyes once again closed. 

The endless void returned to its old silence, but something was different this time.

Even the clouds were red, as if they weren't made from water vapors, but instead made from blood. 

The figure was flying through the clouds, the angel-like wings on their back shimmering in the eerie red light.
