After defeating the bat-like humanoid monsters, Indigo did not allow even a second of rest.
He simply turned around and continued walking deeper into the cave as if what had just happened was nothing more than a minor inconvenience.
Angelica and her two subordinates followed behind him.
The deeper they ventured, the heavier the air became. The cave walls narrowed and widened unpredictably, shadows stretching unnaturally along the jagged rock surfaces. Strange growls and distant echoes of movement could be heard from various tunnels branching off into darkness.
Monsters appeared again and again.
Grotesque creatures crawled from cracks in the stone. Winged beasts descended from the ceiling. Some emerged from underground, their claws scraping harshly against rock.
Angelica and her subordinates were visibly frightened.
Their breathing was uneven. Their shoulders stiff.
But Indigo remained calm.
