Chương 61: ...Freedom.

As the sword descended towards Samiel, time seemed to slow down, each passing moment filled with tension and anticipation. The air crackled with an eerie energy, and the chamber fell into a hushed silence as if holding its breath in anticipation of what was about to unfold.

The sword sliced through the air, casting an ominous glow in the dimly lit chamber. It closed in on Samiel, its trajectory seemingly unstoppable. Seconds stretched into eternity as Samiel braced himself for the impact, his heart pounding in his chest.

With a swift swish, the sword made contact, passing through Samiel's body without any resistance. The chamber remained still, the silence enveloping the space like a heavy fog. The sword continued its descent, finally reaching the ground with a resounding thud.

Thud-!

For a moment, the world seemed frozen in time. Then, after what felt like an eternity, a voice broke the silence, barely audible amidst the stillness.

"I'm... alive."
