Every object in the living room was covered with thick dust, such as the control panel, the sofas, table, and the paint. They looked old and their color was fading.

*Creak*

Angele opened the door carefully.

The light outside was orange that illuminated on Angele's body and brightened up the whole living room.

He stood beside the door and looked around. The sky was covered by clouds. Angele could barely see what was around him due to the thick fog.

Angele raised his hand and aimed at the sky. Some green light dots flashed on his palm and formed a tiny vortex. However, he hesitated and decided not to cast any spell.

The flowers and plants in the garden all died. What was left in the mud were the rotten petals.

Angele walked across the garden. When he was about to leave the area, he detected some movements on his right.

He narrowed his eyes, then he lowered his footsteps and slowly walked along the fences.

After turning the corner, Angele noticed a strange relief sculpture on the wall of the house. It was a child's face and it appeared from nowhere.

It was a boy with a short, curly hair. He had no eyes yet his mouth was moving. Angele was wondering if the boy was trying to say something but nothing was coming out of his mouth.

Angele narrowed his eyes and stepped back trying to observe the changes happening to the boy's face.

After several seconds, the sculpture sank into the gray wall but immediately appeared on another wall. The boy's mouth was still moving but Angele just could not hear anything.

It seemed like the sculpture was not a threat. He slowly lowered the heart bomb in his hand, then he turned around and jumped over the fence, landing beside the lake safely.

*Blop*

It sounded like something jumped out of the surface of the water.

Angele turned around and stared at the lake.

He walked to the lake slowly, and the clean surface of the water reflected the image of his body.

Short brown hair, pale skin with a silver glint, and a pair of golden glowing eyes. Angele stared at the image and he knitted his eyebrows.

*Splash*

A tiny silver fish opened its mouth as it rushed toward the image in the water.

"What the...!" Angele suddenly stepped back and held the back of his left hand tight. Blood was dripping down his wrist.

The fish bit the image in the water but the damage reflected on Angele's physical body. It felt like the fish had bitten a large piece of meat off the back of his left hand.

Angele moved away from the lake quickly. Cold sweat covered his forehead. He took out the healing gel from the potion and applied it on the wound. White steam rose from the back of his hand immediately. After several seconds, the bleeding was stopped by the formation of a scab.

Blue light dots flashed in front of Angele's eyes. He felt relieved after Zero confirmed that the wound was not infected by any poison.

He turned to the lake again and saw the silver fish swimming around the surface of the water. There was blood around its mouth, and it stayed there for several minutes before swimming away.

After the silver fish left, a five-meter-long black fish appeared on the surface of the water.

Angele was surprised. He could see the white triangle on the back of the fish, which was the rune he used as the mark for the creatures that were kept in the biological lab.
