Chapter 226: New Recruit

"I don't like this," Trenton said as he strode down the dark, narrow hallways of one of the magic academy's many underground chambers, his blue robe trailing behind him on the black stone floor. The new recruit floated behind him, still unconscious and bound with layers upon layers of ice chains. Trenton glanced back at the recruit in between every couple, hurried steps.

Something in his gut screamed at him, begging for him to notice…something on the edge of his senses, just barely out of his grasp. No matter how much he tried to understand that feeling which kept him on the balls of his feet, it spoke a language he couldn't comprehend. He sighed and chalked up that feeling for the chambers, innate effect – making it seem as if there were hateful gazes in dark corners, ghostly remnants from the academy's darkest days.
