A Noble’s Dungeon

As soon as Melina and I started going down the stairs, we both felt a surge of magic coming from the ceiling.

I could easily lift my hand and touch the ceiling since it wasn't a very expansive underground hallway, and when I did, it felt strange.

"It's like a combination of MP and demonic energy…" I muttered.

Inspecting it closer, I deduced it was an enchantment that had been placed inside the secret room, and it was hiding the presence of whatever was inside.

"Mel, let's be careful…" I said, trying to dispel the enchantment from the underground hallway.

However, the fact that it was combined with demonic energy didn't allow me to do so, so we had no other choice but to ignore it and keep walking.

When the room opened up, we found ourselves in a dark prison with cells on both sides of the hallway.
