Rejoining the fray

After packing up their stuff back into Evan's inventory, the group then left the Boss Room and headed back to the 98th floor.

However, the journey was a bit strange, especially since Evan was very silent all through, not making any silly quips even though they encountered another bootleg Ghidorah.

That was enough for them to know something was up with the teenage hero, but when asked, it turned out that even he wasn't too sure of things.

The voice and the image he saw when he accidentally touched that tube-like wire in the Dungeon core room; Evan was still pondering on it a dozen minutes later.

The whole situation felt strange, and even though he had asked Artemisia multiple times about it, the woman did not seem to have any clues regarding what he was talking about.

He could almost imagine the look of confusion on her face.
