บท 681: Shadows Fight Me

Coming from a petrified state into a not petrified state was an odd feeling for Lee Seng. One moment he was trying to break out like a bird in an egg and the next he was moving around again. He shook off the dust, wondering where it even came.

'I can't believe they did all of that while I was petrified…' Lee Seng thought. 'They spoke so freely, too… Number 7 is a Deimon and they're doing something to my blood. How do I figure out what they're doing…?'  The door opened, drawing Lee Seng's attention. 

"How're you feelin'?" Dr. Hayes asked as the door closed. She grabbed the rolling chair from the completely wrong place and pulled it over to the computer. 

"Odd." Lee Seng answered. "Very odd. W-what happened anyways?" 

"You went through a phase all the Numbers went through."

"They all petrified?" 

"Yup." Dr. Hayes nodded. "Just like the ten before you, you petrified and basically grew the Protocol's power within you."
