The sound of a scream echoed through the darkness, growing louder with each passing second. Celestina and the others stood still, their lanterns casting flickering light into the abyss. The lanterns, infused with orbs of light from Celestina herself, had been given to them by Sir Henrik.

As the scream intensified, Henrik frowned. Without hesitation, he leapt down from the entrance of Floor -2, landing where the elevator should have been—if it had been capable of descending this far. His gaze snapped upward.

A few more seconds passed before Henrik's eyes widened in recognition.

"Wait... that voice! Is that Gavin!?" Sophia exclaimed, her tone filled with shock. She stepped forward, peering into the darkness above, but saw nothing.

Henrik didn't waste a moment. Dropping his lantern, he bent his knees and launched himself upward. In the blink of an eye, he vanished from sight.
