Chapter 823: See-Through

In a moment that caught Fein off guard, the wounded creature's eyes shimmered with an otherworldly light, and it spoke with a voice infused with wisdom. "Fein, your compassion has opened a door to hidden knowledge," it intoned, its words filled with a sense of reverence.

Fein's features contorted into a mix of astonishment and excitement. His nonchalant facade cracked, revealing a glimpse of the genuine astonishment beneath. He had dared to show compassion, and it had rewarded him with the key to unlocking the Abyss Dimension's secrets.

Fein's narrowed eyes watched the creature's response to his uncharacteristic kindness. For a split second, his tough exterior wavered, replaced by a flicker of curiosity and hunger for the hidden knowledge promised. "Hidden knowledge, huh? Now you're talking my language," he quipped, unable to hide the spark of intrigue in his voice.
