Volume VII - Prologue

*(A/N: When I was going through the chapters, I realized that I had mistakenly skipped chapter 457 and instead published two chapters which were 458. I have now corrected this... if you are one of those who are stuck with the problem in chapter 457, you can read it now. If you didn't encounter this problem, you can continue.)*

--Volume VII: Light Born from Darkness--

Dark corridors stretched before me, and I had to choose one quickly.

I clicked my tongue and chose the leftmost one.

I passed between metal walls, who knows how many meters underground, where red lights flickered on and off constantly.

The only problem wasn't my environment or the fact that I was stuck here, though.

"Hah... ha..."

Every breath I took burned my throat because of the gases released.

"Ugh..."

My legs, already weak on their own, were aching from running.

"You can't run, Aiden."
