'Pain?' He thought to himself. The word suddenly popped into his mind, making him halt in his tracks.
"What pain am I even thinking about?" He muttered to himself, posing the question to no one in particular.
He tried hard to remember, but couldn't recollect ever encountering a demonic cultivator. Perhaps due to his raging emotions, a memory that had been buried deep within him surfaced again.
He remembered the day when he was running frantically back home. The dread he felt that day was something he had never felt before.
Though it seemed unrelated to his 'pain', that was the only memory he could recollect that seemed to give him any clue into it.
Still, it was too vague to provide any real, concrete explanation for him.
The rest of the day ended in a blur for Adrian. He was not able to recollect anything more, which frustrated him.
