BANG!
The harpoon was pulled out of the Fiend of Darkness, and Nick fell to the ground inside the Containment Unit.
Aria looked at Nick with shock and interest, but Nick just lay on the ground.
"Everything okay?" Aria asked.
Nick released a deep breath and took another one.
For five seconds, he didn't say anything.
Then, he slowly stood up, his steps uncertain.
He seemed genuinely shaken.
Of course, it wasn't difficult for Nick to act like this.
After all, he just needed to remember what he had gone through in there.
The journey towards the Nightmare had filled him with genuine madness.
Back then, he had turned into something he couldn't recognize.
He had been a machine, essentially.
Remembering that moment filled Nick with dread.
It was like he had completely lost himself.
