The ruins (Part three)

Tentacles. 

They were everywhere. 

Now I understood why there wasn't even the speck of dust in this place. 

I understood why there were no bodies, no bones, no clothes. 

Everything was dead and everything was consumed. 

"Stay behind me at all times." I stood in the front. "I'll take care of this."

"Wait, we're not running away?" The girl said, oddly confused and slightly panicked. 

"Who runs away after coming this far?"

Anyway, I held the remnants of the mystic blade with one hand and my knife with the other and casually walked ahead. This place was kind of dark, so both glowed. 

My torch kind of lighted up everything on the floor, so I could clearly see the tentacles down there, but still, I had to keep a very sharp eye on the flying ones. 

The tentacles swung around and tried to attack me. I just cut them. 

That was it. I cut them.

I cut them and walked ahead.
