Chapter 632: Museum Tour (End)

He'd only visited New York a handful of times, and the Met museum once.

It was on a school trip. And he barely remembered the exhibits. But the grand stairway and entrance—those had stayed stuck in his memory.

But the fact that it stood apart from its surroundings and was the sole source of light was jarring.

Even more jarring was the fact that its doors were kept wide open, seemingly held by an invisible force. As though waiting.

For him?

Light spilled out from within.

He took the steps slowly, one hand brushing the railing on the stairs. Dust didn't cling to the surface. No grime and well-maintained.

Everything about it felt wrong.

It was like someone had taken the effort to keep this single location clean and intact.

'I guess this is a not-so-subtle hint that this is the site of the trial for the inheritance...'

Kain entered the open doors and paused.
