If it were some other time, Adam would have fled without a moment of hesitation.
But when he saw the shadowy figures inside the castle shift, he was also able to sense something else.
Deep in the heart of the castle, he noticed a statue.
It was a statue of a familiar figure…
So, he refrained from teleporting back to the surface. He was already here now, so he might as well uncover some mysteries that lay buried in the depths.
As soon as the shadow figures inside the castle started to move, the countless underwater creatures standing guard outside lowered their heads in deference.
Even the Mana Vortex-level creatures!
In that instant, Adam knew just what kind of being dwelt within the castle.
Yes, being. As in singular.
The shadowy figures moving inside weren't separate entities… they were all part of something much larger.
