After regaining some clarity, Isley trudged back to the cave.
As soon as he entered the area where the poison gas had not yet fully dissipated, a somewhat soft, admiring voice reached his ears.
"Indeed, infected by the Abyss, such a vessel is the perfect servant and even host for my master!"
Upon hearing this voice, Isley, maintaining his Awakener form, turned his head slightly to glance at the silhouetted figure observing from the side.
This person had white hair and a gaunt face, yet his voice seemed young, possessing a bizarre contrast.
But it was this person who made Isley, once the NO.1 male Great Sword who awakened as an Abyssal, feel a deep sense of powerlessness.
Now, upon hearing the other's description that seemed to evaluate goods, he spoke in a hoarse voice,
"Well then, are you satisfied now?"
Earlier, when faced with the gas attack, Isley already led everyone deep into the cave, preparing to leave through another exit.
