Chapter 19: Chapter 19 – The Second Swim
The next moment, Nick was bathed in light.
From black, everything transformed into white.
Nick's eyes burned due to the sudden influx of light, but they quickly adapted.
The next moment, the light became less bright, and Nick could finally look around.
'How did I end up here?' Nick thought with surprise.
Right now, Nick was between the two toilets when he had not even reached the first one.
'The Nightmare must have created more illusions that made me change my trajectory.'
Nick took a deep breath.
'As long as I enter a sizable area of darkness, the Nightmare can actually keep me perpetually trapped in it.'
'No wonder no one wanted to search for the Dreamer down here.'
'The danger is not the Dreamer.'
'The danger is the Nightmare.'
Nick noticed that the light was getting dimmer, and he was preparing to move forward again.
'I need to find a way to get to the toilet.'
A bit later, the light was nearly gone, and Nick shot forward again.
The pillars were transforming into the forest of rusty spires again.
However, Nick just kept swimming forward with all of his power.
The next moment, Nick saw something dark slowly rise out of the pool in front of him.
It was like a whale had just put its breathing hole a bit above the surface before submerging again.
Something was in the water, and it was big!
A second later, it rose again, but this time, it was angled towards Nick!
It was swimming towards him!
Nick gritted his teeth, ignoring the liquid that poured through his lips.
And then, he tightly shut his eyes.
But he continued swimming! n--Ovelb1n
Everything became silent.
It was deathly silent.
The only thing moving was Nick.
He almost felt like he was in an endless void of nothingness.
Ding.
Nick's right knee hit something solid, but the object was pushed away.
However, Nick knew exactly what he had just hit.
It felt a bit soft but with a hard core.
It was a head!
A human head!
The next moment, Nick hit something again.
This time, it was an arm.
However, Nick just kept moving forward.
More and more body parts appeared in Nick's way, but he just batted them to the side.
"I'm sorry," the crying voice of a kid said quietly.
The next moment, a small arm grabbed Nick's ankle.
"I'm so sorry!" the kid shouted.
"Please, forgive me!"
The next moment, several other arms grabbed Nick.
They wanted to pull him into the depths!
"I'm sorry!"
"I'm sorry!"
"I'm sorry!"
A chorus of different but desperate voices shouted from all around Nick as the grips of the arms tightened.
Nick couldn't move anymore.
He had been completely immobilized!
Nick's terror reached new heights, but he only kept trying to swim forward.
That was the only thing that could save him!
Splash!
Nick was suddenly pulled under!
The arms tightened around him and continued pulling.
And then, Nick suddenly felt it.
Teeth!
Huge teeth!
Nick's legs hit a couple of teeth, and the teeth were almost a meter long!
Even more, Nick's body wasn't nearly strong enough to resist these teeth, and his legs started to bleed.
In his panic, Nick desperately tried to swim away, but the arms kept pulling him back.
Even more, the arms seemed to come out of this thing's mouth!
The arms were pulling him into the maw!
Nick felt the maw advance.
A deep shadow appeared around Nick as he was engulfed.
There was another Specter in here!
And this was not a level one Specter!
