"Mind tell me, what's going on?" Rise's breath shortened, and he gritted his teeth. "Are you kidding me? Why am I here again? Where's Guild Leader?"
He shouted at the darkness, and it eerily echoed. He glared at the darkness. Yes, the same darkness where he awakened after his death, the space where the damn book was located.
