The strong light emitted by the afternoon sun penetrates through the windows and brightens up all the corners of the chamber. As the door tardily swings inwards, the scenery inside the chamber enters my vision unveiled, including its current tenant——
He has his arm raised to his waist while he proceeds towards the door, perhaps trying to lock it and shut me out when he detects the power of the holy amulet. Unfortunately, his body seems too weak now to let him succeed before I open it up.
Figuring that he is not strong enough to hurt me, I seize my chance and step into the chamber. One step after another, I approach Esmund.
Whereas, in limping footsteps Esmund frightenedly moves backwards into the deeper part of his chamber. Meanwhile, his forehead is covered in sweat, his face turns ghastly, and his breaths become shorter.
