Chapter 957: Descendant of a Sinner

Karyk looked at the open passage that appeared to be leading him somewhere. 

He glanced back at the man one last time, but the man had already turned his back on him, as if he had nothing else to say. 

"Can you answer one last question before I go?" Karyk halted for a moment. "Who am I? And how am I related to this place?"

The man did not answer. The only response that came was silence. 

"Is it that you can't say, or you won't say?" Karyk changed his question, but there was still the same silence. 

The man remained unmoving, as if he had returned to being nothing more than a statue. 

Feeling a sense of resignation, Karyk took one last look at the man before turning away. As he walked off, he couldn't help but wonder if his answers were waiting at the end of this passage. 

After Karyk left, the opening in the wall closed, making it impossible to return to this room.
