I suddenly found myself in a adow. The last thing I rembered was seeing Jukhan running towards before I sank into a shadow.
"Are you alright?" [Nakros]
Then there was this guy. So blue horned guy that claims to be my senior disciple.
"...What does it look like?" [Solace]
I lifted my arms, only to scream internally as I saw how not-normal they looked. Also, it hurt. A lot.
"Oh... Let help you." [Nakros]
Raising his hand, he started chanting.
"O' kind and gracious. Bring rcy to this lost lamb. |Middle Cure|." [Nakros]
A small light washed over , causing my arms to slowly bend into strange directions before returning to normal.
"...Ew." [Solace]
I stared at my hands with a sowhat disgusted look. It wasn't that they looked weird or anything, it was just the feeling and sounds of them being fixed.
"...Is there sothing wrong?" [Nakros]
"...Nothing." [Solace]
Even though he was all nice and stuff, I was still a bit cautious.
"By the way... Why do you have cuffs on you?" [Solace]
Nakros looked a bit confused, that is until he realized he had chains on him.
"These? Well, I broke out of prison." [Nakros]
Great. Now I'm stuck with an escapee.
"How did you get out?" [Solace]
"I followed Jukhan. After he got caught, he remained in prison for five years. After that, he suddenly decided to break out." [Nakros]
"...You make it sound so casual." [Solace]
Nakros gave a look as if he wasn't sure how to explain it.
"It was pretty casual. The guards never knew he was so strong." [Nakros]
("Well that's weird.") [Solace]
I found it strange that soone so strong was placed in a prison incapable of containing him.
"Then what are those chains for? If he's so strong, why doesn't he just take them off?" [Solace]
"He can't." [Nakros]
"What?" [Solace]
Nakros lowered himself to give a better view of his neck.
"Look here." [Nakros]
Tugging a little bit at the collar, it appeared to be stuck to his skin.
"Upon entering the Robar Prison, they seal a portion of our power into these chains and cuffs. If we try to take it off, we'll most likely die, or lose most of our strength." [Nakros]
I was taken aback. It appeared this world was a bit more hardcore than I thought it was.
"What did you do to be put into that prison?" [Solace]
"..." [Nakros]
Nakros opened his mouth as if he was going to answer, but he closed it again.
"I would tell you, but I feel that you would look at another way." [Nakros]
To be honest, I was really curious after he kind of hyped it up like that. However, I thought that would be insensitive of .
"Does Master know of this?" [Solace]
Nakros laughed.
"Of course. In fact, he was the one who threw in there." [Nakros]
"Eh?!" [Solace]
Well that was a surprise. I didn't expect Master to be so cruel to his own disciple.
"In any case, I've taken up a bit too much of your ti. I should take my leave." [Nakros]
"Huh?" [Solace]
A shadow appeared beneath Nakros' feet, and he began to sink in.
"Oh! I almost forgot." [Nakros]
Summoning a rift beside him, he stuck his hand inside.
("He's doing this while sinking...?") [Solace]
There wasn't much I could say other than it was an odd sight.
"Found it!" [Nakros]
Yanking his hand out, Nakros tossed a white crystal. It was shaped into a cube and fit in the middle of my palm. Strangely, it felt comforting to be in my hand.
"What's this?" [Solace]
"You could think of it as a way of contacting . Just break it when you're in danger." [Nakros]
I looked at him with a puzzled look.
"Why are you doing all this for ? Don't you hate Master for throwing you into prison?" [Solace]
"To be honest. No. I'm glad." [Nakros]
He had a lancholic expression as he sank. It was also the mont I recalled sothing I really needed to ask.
"Wait! I have a question!" [Solace]
"Oh, too late. Ask Master when you see him." [Nakros]
He must've thought I wanted to know more about his past, but Nakros was dead wrong.
"I wanted to ask-" [Solace]
Before I could even start with my question, the shadow ate him up. Thus, I was left by myself in a adow.
"...I just wanted to ask where I am..." [Solace]
