Bab 57: The Hunt (8) *

Ten minutes passed. Twenty minutes passed. Thirty minutes passed.

Adrian kept diving deeper and deeper. The water pressed against his skin, resisting him from going any deeper. But who could stop Adrian?

All he could see was the blue above and the black below. He did not have to worry about his breath; he had already taken a 'breathless potion' while walking through the range of mountains.

Forty minutes passed. He did not know how deep he dove, nor did he care. Suddenly, a sound entered his ears, causing him to peak them but he did not stop diving.

The deeper he went the sound became louder, and clearer. It was not just any random sound, it was a melody. It was as if a choir of women, young and old, were holding a concert under the lake with their sonorous voices.

He paced up, determined to reach the source of the music. The sound reverberating through the dark waters of the lake kept getting louder, clearer and more- hypnotic.
