Nisha pushed forward.
Her body ached, especially from the injury she had taken while saving Adrian days ago, but she couldn't stop now.
She fought her way through several Exorcists.
The flickering lights and shadows helped her stay hidden, but each clash left her breathing harder.
"Huff... Huff... How many are there?" she whispered, wiping blood from her cheek.
The corridor had fallen silent.
Bodies of fallen Exorcists lay scattered around her.
She looked at the floor and frowned.
Knocking them out instead of killing them had been tough.
She sheathed her swords and began searching the area.
Her frown deepened the farther she went.
Then she came to a large metal door.
She pushed it open.
Inside, the air was cold and damp.
The lights were completely out, leaving the room pitch black.
She closed her eyes and used her mana echolocation spell again.
The waves spread around her, shaping the space in her mind.
She saw rows of cages.
Inside them were children.
