With a tug, he couldn’t pull anything. The dark, blurry palm hesitated for a moment. Clearly, it hadn’t anticipated such an outcome. Instinctively, it tried to pull several more times with force. But Jason remained standing there, unmoved. Moreover, he slowly lowered his head to look over. The blurry, dark palm seemed to feel his gaze and immediately stiffened. The atmosphere followed, becoming awkward. A full second later, the palm twitched uneasily. Without a doubt, this was absolutely good news for Jason. He would have more options to deal with the current situation. Of course, Jason hadn’t forgotten the ’crack’ just now. A part of this ’Gateway to Death’? Or was it a mutation after something strange broke in? And, who was the last person to enter here? Such a punch, truly powerful! Jason thought, then shook his head. The clues were too scant. He couldn’t make any judgments. Even to say, the only clue was that pair of size 48-49 shoes. People with such feet were not common. And they must be tall, strong, and robust. Tall, strong, robust... huh? Subconsciously, Jason thought of Aras. Of course, it couldn’t be Aras. But what about Aras’ mother? Or perhaps... Aras’ grandfather! No sooner had he thought of Aras’ grandfather than a thought flashed through Jason’s mind.
