Caius's POV
The moment Talia uttered those strange words; I felt the world change around me.
I tried to escape and pull away, but it was already too late.
Darkness seized my vision, and the room and sofas vanished before my eyes.
Without hesitation, I activated my ability and drew my swords from the storage ring while feeling my feet strike a solid floor.
Damn that girl—what kind of lunatic reads ancient words while holding something suspicious?
In the darkness, I saw everyone's souls, and for some reason this place contained no essence in the air.
But the darkness did not last long, because in the next moment the place shone with green light.
The ground, the walls, the ceiling—all of them shone with ominous green light in the form of patterns revealing the place.
It was a wide room sealed from all sides without any opening, while its walls were filled with ancient patterns… lines that connected and intersected like pathways.
