At the moment consciousness began to collapse, Bologue felt himself stepping into a dark void, his thoughts gradually becoming fuzzy, like various memories and feelings being mercilessly stripped away.
Bologue couldn't feel the existence of his body; everything seemed to turn into desolate voids. Lost and alone, the ties of the mortal world tightened around Bologue's consciousness. After a strong moment of bewilderment, the darkness turned bright, with one horrifying face after another surrounding him.

Being watched by monsters was a first.
On the bizarre faces, a unanimous expression of confusion emerged, and Bologue's gaze was somewhat dazed. Next, a strong, unyielding voice echoed in his heart.
"Remember all this."
