The chain-bearer stood still, nothing happened. He faced Aiden and the others, raising the Ancient Heart of Life.
Aiden and the group felt anxious and regretful, beginning to hesitate.
Suddenly, the Ancient Heart of Life in his hand exploded, transforming into a dense white light that enveloped the chain-bearer.
A powerful life aura emanated from the chain-bearer, so pure it resembled an angel among demons.
Aiden's lips curled slightly; it was just as he expected. This Ancient Heart of Life was a trap, merely an aura, not the real thing.
The chain-bearer looked at his body, panicking.
Now, he was the brightest beacon in the dungeon.
"No one can catch me. I've absorbed the power of the Ancient Heart of Life! I'm about to ascend to nobility!"
The chain-bearer yelled loudly, picked a passage at random, and dashed inside, quickly disappearing from everyone's sight.
Some people noticed that wherever the chain-bearer went, a clear life aura was left behind.
The crowd sighed.
