章 259: Icy Cave (4) - The truth about the 'gods'

"He is dead, right?" Bailey said.

"Probably. We can just tell it was an accident, and as he is someone new in the school, everything should be fine."

The pit was pitch-black, and even Arthur, who could see in the dark, could not do so in that place. It was as if there was a veil blocking his sight.

He kept falling at top speed and tried many times to cast some sort of spell to prevent that from happening. Nothing worked.

Arthur only stopped falling when he hit the ground. The good news was that the snow was also there in the pit, and it lowered the damage from his falling, making him only break a few bones.

"Why?"

The reason behind such a treacherous act was something Arthur did not know.

"Was it just about the mission reward? They did not want to share with me?"

All the three teachers looked like decent people. Arthur had seen nothing wrong with them during the entire journey, yet they betrayed him for profit.
