The Extra(?) v/s the Protagonist

---(After Leon was told to secure escape route and Isabell alone went ahead for the infiltration)--

Leon dragged his body to the stairs.

He felt pain coursing through himself every time he moved. He coughed blood with every step he took.

Despite that, he moved downstairs.

Screech-

Opening the door, he entered the room, which had the portal they were supposed to use for their escape.

This portal belonged to Underworld. They knew about a few more of these portals thanks to their spies working in Umbra.

The device Goliaths used to shut down battery-based devices throughout the Underworld was fine-tuned to not interfere with portals, this was so that they could use any other portal in case of emergency during the mission.

However, this created an issue that not all battery-based devices would be shut down.

He closed the door behind him and sat with his back against the wall.
