Reed inhaled deeply and reached across the table for a glass of water."The graveyard sweeper brought you here," Matteo grumbled. Matteo sighed deeply. When Matteo witnessed his best friend's wounds, he was devastated. Reed took a step down from the and his skin was sliced by the window glass, yet he didn't have a crease of suffering on his face."Can you tell me what you're doing?""I am really dissatisfied with myself.""But why is that? You've already done so much for us, haven't you?""I haven't done anything at all.

Third Person POVMatteo entered the dungeon's left route, which was lined with green branches and stems, and as he moved deeper into the road, he noticed a woman with long nails, protruding eyes, curled black hair, a scarlet robe, a ruby necklace around her neck, and a black stick with a skull on its head."Greetings, Matteo. My name is the Dungeon witch spirit, and I am your examiner." I'd put you to the test by posing three separate questions to you. "The first two would be riddles, and the third would be a choice between two possibilities," she stated with a smile. She tapped the skull of her stick with her index finger. He was examining her looks when she spoke up in the middle of his thoughts. "You may gaze me later, Matteo," she said, her eyes rolling in a circular motion. Though she was amusing, her features sent shivers down his spine."Should we begin?" she asked, raising her brows and focusing her pinner gaze on him.

While they were sitting on the corridor beach, Reed, Matteo, and Professor Beth came sprinting towards them."How is she, Peter?" Matteo inquired of Sylvie's father. As a powerless father, he stood from his chair, suppressing his frustration."What will she be like? Despite my caution, you two met and continued your relationship. Her skin is beginning to sag, and her hair is beginning to grey "With agony in his voice, he said. Matteo was disgusted with himself and pressed his eyes to the ground. If he had been in his place, he would not have known how to respond to a father.He would have loathed and cursed him then as well. They switched their sight to the window where Sylvie could be seen. Her chest rose and fell quickly, as if she was having trouble breathing. "What is going on with her?" Matteo

Matteo's gaze switched from Sylvie to Reed, and he snatched the cup from Reed's grip. The door opened as Matteo sipped his coffee, and Peter entered the room. He was also holding two mugs of coffee. "Oh! You've already had a cup of coffee, right? "Peter muttered something. With a rigid face, he motioned towards Sylvie's bed. "Excuse me, Reed had already brought something from me?" He sighed hard and after a brief pause, said, "No, it's okay." "I'm grateful for everything you're doing for me."Matteo consoled him with a grin and a hug. "We have to preserve her," Matteo reassured him, "and it's not done yet." Professor Beth burst into the room, panting, with a jerk of the door. Professor Beth was enjoying his coffee when the coffee machine began to quiver. He also heard a growling voice coming from the hospital counter, so he moved his

MATTEO POV With a sigh, I awoke and looked around for Sylvie. The last thing I recall is that we were involved in a car accident."Matteo, don't move," urged my pal Reed."Where is Sylvie?" I asked. I'm attempting to ignore the discomfort of my wounds. He remained silent and his eyes was drawn to the ground. I stood up after removing the syringe from my wrist."Do you know where she is?" I questioned him again, panicked."She's in a life-threatening condition. Outside the room, her parents are waiting for her," he informed me of this. Hearing about her precarious health made my heart twitch with pain. I hurriedly exited the room, hoping to get a glimpse of her. As I approached her chamber, I noticed an elderly couple crying on the bench. They were Sylvie's parents, who were supporting one another after seeing their daughter's condition.
