Shadow Slave
Chapter 454
The fifth level of the Ebony Tower had almost killed Sunny.
It was completely empty, its black walls drowning in darkness and unadorned. There was no dust, no ruined pieces of furniture, tools, or strange metal devices. Not even lanterns.

Eventually, however, he had returned to the hall of runes.

Even then, he felt a terrible pressure constantly assaulting his mind.
