Swooosh—!
The plan worked flawlessly.
'Leon' got kidnapped, and I quietly followed the thread connecting me and him. I didn't need to go fast since I knew exactly the path that the Wraith was taking.
….That, and there was also the fact that ideally, it would be best if I didn't run. It was possible, but it was just not ideal.
"Hoo."
Leaning against the side of the tunnel, I took a moment to rest. As I did, my leg started to convulse uncontrollably.
Clench.
Firmly clenching my teeth, I endured the sensation and waited for it to pass.
The poison was spreading at a faster rate than I had originally anticipated. The time at which it would completely take over me wasn't too far.
"…Looks like I can't take it easy like I've been doing."
Moving my hand away from the wall and withstanding the numbing sensation that took over the lower half and the upper half of my body, I once again moved to follow the thread on the ground.
The journey wasn't easy.
