He Is Not Alone

The cone object was not far away from Kieran.

However, its floating speed wasn't that fast; it used two seconds to approach Kieran. The blinding red light started to cumulate. A red dagger took form in mid-air and threw itself towards Kieran's neck.

But just as the tip of the dagger touched Kieran's neck, it stopped.

"Detected target has lost its danger level."

"Detected target has great potential."

"Target might be able to become a replacement."

After the dull mechanical voice, light shone again on the cone.

It wasn't an alarming red light anymore, but the white light that it had first shown.

That dull mechanical voice also changed to a more lively one following the switch in light.

"Are you willing to be my follower?" the mechanical composite voice asked.

As its voice faded, Kieran regained the ability to speak but not the mobility of his body.
