The Extra's Survival

After coming back to the guest house, Lucas went back to the room, the one he woke up in the morning.

Lucas stepped inside the terrace attached to his room. As if it was displaying how luxurious this building was, the terrace was only made up of carved white rocks with great artistic taste. The night view from this place was also stunning.

Torches lit up different parts of the city and made up a completely different scene than it had during the daytime. The stars were shining brightly over the night sky.

The light source wavered according to the fires and added vitality to the city, and the dark spots of the city where light didn ’t reach piqued the viewers ’ curiosities. However, the night view didn ’t interest Lucas, he held a drink in his hands. All his attention and thoughts were on the recent event that had transpired.

Lucas took a sip and looked at the wound on his thigh. He noticed that with the coming of the night, he felt a burning sensation in his thigh. As he looked at it, he found that although there is no cut, the flesh started to rot little by little.

Taking healing potions may be able to restore the place to normal but at night the flesh started to decay as if something is corroding it from inside.

Lucas precisely knew what it was.

’I wonder what the cult of darkness ’s true identity is. ’

He recalled the behaviours that were written about them, till now of all things that had happened, the darkness cult was the greatest variable.

And Lucas was certain about one thing, he didn ’t have any hands in creating this variable.

As he was enjoying the scene outside, he suddenly heard a warning bell that rang throughout the city indicating the people to take shelter and they were under attack.
