"So dark!"
"What place is this?"
Several silhouettes appeared in a pitch-black tunnel, lighting the torches they carried and fumbling ahead.
CRACK!
Someone stepped on something, and a cracking sound came from underfoot.
"Hmm?"
A person bent down to pick up the thing that had made the noise, which, under the weak halo of torchlight, revealed a ghastly pale bone.
Bones! And they were human bones!
"Be careful!"
Someone screamed, followed by the sound of flapping wings, as countless shadows darted through the tunnel.
"It's bats!"
AHH!
"It's sucking my blood!"
Countless bats hidden in the darkness swooped toward the firelight and the figures. The bats were the size of human heads, and when they landed on a person, they clung like maggots to bone, crazily devouring flesh and blood.
Peak-level Knights were reduced to a pile of white bones in the blink of an eye.
"Run for it!"
"Break through!"

「In a certain plaza.」
