Chapter 282 - The Painting

After getting through the energy shield, Aiden and Roas could finally see the true ending of this second to the last floor in this strange tower-like Sacred Sanctum. The scene changed, it no longer showed an endless path forward but they saw the very end of the hallway, while on their left, where they only saw the endless wall, the very familiar-looking staircase appeared. 

There was however a similar, maroon carpet draped over the stairs, while the usual wooden railing was replaced by bronze this time. Midway through there was a small kite winder, giving it a U-shape, instead of the previous straight ones. The mellow, amber-colored wall had a single, peculiar painting. From the distance, neither Aiden nor Roas could make out anything it seemed to be a completely black canvas. However, when Aiden looked at it, suddenly a system notification popped up, giving a surprising note.
