437 436: Pamela
(Pamela's POV)
For months, maybe even years, Pamela could not recall the last time her surroundings were not enclosed by walls, her arms were not cuffed and sealed, her legs chained, and her sight blinded.
She thought she was going to rot away without having a chance to fight, but then to her surprise, she was given freedom, and the only price she had to pay was to partake in the Battle of Chosens.
It sounded absurd, insane, and too good to be true.
But unlike what she expected, she was given freedom and she found herself in a strange dimension called The Dimension of The Old Ones.
She heard the words of The Clown, and so many questions popped up in her mind, but there was none to answer her.
Only the dense fog around her was her companion. She was a little confused, but then she saw the faint image of a city in the distance and she decided to stay there for the time being knowing that she needed information and knowledge regarding the strange dimension she was in.
Although she encountered some annoying situations because she was an 'Outsider' and a tier 4 female, she was able to live 'comfortably' in Gravenborn City.
She stayed in Gravenborn City for 11 days, and she learned a lot about the city and the dimension she was in. Although she could have left the city after a week, she remained for an extra four days for one reason only.
The runes told her to stay.
Ever since the day her entire life changed, her eyes changed and she was not only able to see the mana and runes in the air, the runes were able to communicate with her.
Her affinity with runes was so high to the point that if she wanted, she would see the rune composition of a person and not the person itself. The runes she saw would show her what skills the person had, his or her race, the tier of the person, and whatever secret ability the person had.
It was a terrifying ability, and she rarely used it unless she encountered a powerful foe or somebody that piqued her curiosity. She knew that if she depended on the ability, she could eventually stop seeing people as flesh and blood but as runes instead.
Seeing the shock in the man's eyes, she didn't know what to think.
'What did he sense?'
This was the only sensible thought she could make, and then she could no longer hold in her curiosity.
Her light green eyes changed, and it was no longer green but silver. Her silver eyes glowed, and at the center was a swirling deep purple and midnight-blue dust, giving them the appearance of miniature galaxies.
At the center, her pupils were etched with faint, intricate rune patterns that shifted and glowed softly. Surrounding the irises were faint golden rings that pulsed like a heartbeat.
Gaze of the Seraph
To her surprise, the instant she used her ocular skill, the man's eyes changed and it became pure white.
Her eyes flickered, but before she could formulate a thought, she almost exclaimed out loud in extreme shock and horror.
'What the hell?!'
Reflecting in her gaze were the rune compositions of the man, but what she saw almost caused her to run mad. She had no choice but to hurriedly reduce the intensity of her ocular skill to the lowest level, but even such a thing was too much for her mind.
She understood none of the runes. It was the most complex set of runes she had ever seen, and she could not get an iota of information from the man.
Blood slowly fell from her eyes, and she deactivated her ocular ability. She closed her eyes, and then she got up and approached the man who also had an expression filled with disbelief.
A few moments later, she stood less than a meter in front of the man, and she could not help but blurt out.
"Who are you?"
