The Bet – III

"Are you ready~?" Hearing her words, Haru did not reply.

It was very dark.

Only his body was discernible within it because of the chains that were glowing hot.

But it did not help him much.

He was alone, stood against the unimaginable quantity of the Black Orbs.

His heart was definitely beating, not knowing if he could survive the upcoming onslaught, much less find Mimi in the darkness.

But then, her voice echoed again.

"Come~ Find me~"

He couldn't even understand where her voice was coming from.

'No... Focus on what's in front of me... and imagine...'

Instead of replying to her, he cast [Thermal Touch] on the chains again and spun them faster than ever, making his head throb. But he didn't care and tried his best to ignore it, focusing on the ordeal ahead.
