Eren steeled his heart and kept on walking. Renita's words were suddenly remembered by his disturbed psyche and calmed him down:
'Don't fear the reaper.'
The corridor opened up to a large hall that made Eren feel like his existence was only akin to that of dust. There were huge pillars that stood at equal distance. The runs on those plain-yet-intimidating pillars looked as if giant pythons had wrapped their bodies around them.
The hall's ambience was just enough for him to see a few meters ahead of him. The pillars were visible only because of the dim lights the runs inscribed over them were illuminating.
So Eren decided to spread his mana sense.
And regretted immediately.
A chill ran down Eren's spine. Then it doubled back and entered his brain– making his thoughts freeze in their tracks.
'Wh… what the fuck is that?'
