After reaching the shore, Setenda officially stepped onto the land of the Country of Shadow. The moment he stepped on it, he could clearly feel that he had arrived in another world.
Similar to Donar's Fairyland, the Country of Shadows seemed to be a foreign world that was separated from reality. From a geographical point of view, this place should correspond to the Scottish region, but it was obvious that it was impossible to find the specific geographical location of the Country of Shadow on the map.
After Setenda entered the Country of Shadow, he saw a gloomy fog around him. Furthermore, he could clearly sense that the fog wasn't naturally formed. The trees and grass had withered and turned white. There was no sign of life at all. The entire world was black and white except for Setenda himself.
"How sinister…"
It was difficult to determine the direction in the fog, so Setenda could only move forward based on his instincts.
In the end, after walking for a few hours, Setenda still did not find a place that looked like a road. He was not even sure if he was going in circles.
It was fine if he simply couldn't find anyone. When he finally found something that looked like a human and rushed over, he found that it was a skeleton lying on the ground.
The skeleton looked like it had been dead for a long time. It was just beside the tree.
The further down he went, the more skeletons he could see. Some of them even had damaged weapons and armor hanging on them.
Setenda was too lazy to care about these things, but when he passed by these skeletons, a layer of phosphorous flames suddenly ignited in their pupils.
“——————”
The figures of translucent green or yellow skeletal monsters appeared, letting out shrill screams as they pounced towards Setenda.
" Boring thing. A ghost?"
Setenda easily cut open several spirits, but even more spirits seemed to have smelled the aura of the living on his body and pounced over.
God knows how many spirits there were here. Setenda could not be bothered to waste time on these small fries. He fought and retreated.
However, he couldn't find his way in the fog, and more and more spirits were coming.
When he cut open a huge spirit that was made up of multiple spirits, Setenda leaned against a tree and panted.
“! You dare to sneak attack me?"
Sensing the presence of something, he turned around and cut open the grayish-white tree trunk behind him. He saw a blue figure slip out.
"Wait, wait, wait. I don't mean any harm.”
That figure appeared clearly in front of Setenda. It was a young man who was no more than ten years old…The ghost looked slightly smaller than Setenda.
The color of this soul was bright blue, which seemed to be different from other souls.
"What? Aren't you the same as those guys who attacked me?”
Setenda withdrew his sword. This was the first time he had met someone he could talk to since he came to the Country of Shadows. He did not expect it to be a ghost.
"My name is Heinrich…I'm just a ghost like them. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.”
"It doesn't matter. Compared to this, do you know how to get to the Country of Shadow?”
Setenda wanted to ask the spirit if it knew the way to the Country of Shadow, but Heinrich immediately revealed a terrified expression.
"I know... But don't go, the Country of Shadow is too scary!”
"Don't joke around. I have to go no matter what. If you know, tell me quickly!”
Although he was very unwilling, Heinrich still agreed to lead the way under Setenda's threat.
"It's really dangerous…Trust me."
"I know."
Sethanda could tell that Heinrich was trying to persuade him with good intentions, and he felt a little bad for threatening him. However, he still had to head to the Country of Shadow.
Along the way, Setenda was slashing at all kinds of spirits that approached while chatting with Heinrich, and he heard many things.
"I'm from Connaught, Isle... He wanted to learn from the legendary Queen of Shadows, Skaha, in the Country of Shadows…However, he failed before he could enter.”
"Many of the spirits here come from this place. Our souls can't move away from here, so we can only wander around here.”
"Many people gradually lost themselves and became evil spirits.”
With Heinrich's guidance, he finally saw a building-a tall castle made of green and black bricks.
Perhaps the opposite side was where Skaha was, but there was a huge ravine that was tens of meters in the middle. Even Setenda would find it difficult to jump over.
A bridge could be vaguely seen in the fog. Setenda was about to walk over when he heard Heinrich's panicked dissuasion."Don't go over! That bridge is alive."
"There's life? What do you mean?" While Setenda was puzzled, a voice came from the castle of the Country of Shadow.
"I was wondering why there was so much commotion among the ghosts today…It turned out that someone had come here to die.”
A burly man stood on the wall of the Country of Shadow and sneered when he saw Setenda.
