[SPLASH! SPLASH!]

Sea waves splattered strongly against a tall, steep, rugged island plateau somewhere in the Islands of Clarisson, a few kilometers near the city of Polo de Oro.

It was early in the morning, around six a.m.

Above the plateau, a bald man was standing, sightseeing the enormous, tall buildings of Polo de Oro City, while speaking with somebody on his phone.

"We are here now, Levi."

This bald man had a cross marking on his forehead, all the way to his chin. He also had a huge scar that probably left his left eye blind.

The bald man was Rook Reeves. He is an American.

"I'll make sure he is dead meat," he said on the phone, which he immediately put down as he ended the conversation. He shortly called out some names: "Yarush, Perkin, and Rico..."

Three men emerged from his back, all dressed in matching dark leather hooded jackets paired with dark jeans tucked into high-cut boots. On their foreheads, they also had the same cross marking as Rook.

The group is known as the Templa

All of a sudden, an intense whoosh of breeze coming from nowhere split the murk, enabling the bright full moon above to light up the whole area.The surroundings then rendered his eyes immobilized; he was horrified. "W—what in the—!".The area was filled with countless decomposing corpses, whose nasty odor spewed in the air, making his stomach gurgle and dryly puke in discomfort.

Elijah's feet were trembling as he couldn't believe what he was seeing.He quickly blacked out in dread and fell to the floor when he heard it thunderously growl like a hungry beast.Damion rushed to Elijah and checked his condition. Elijah seemed to be fine when Damion checked his pulse. He then turned his attention right to the big black cat."Y—" Damion was about to address the large black cat that had just growled when his mouth abruptly closed, impeding him to the point where not a single word could be uttered.The black big cat then distorted like smoke, morphing into a ghostly image of Damion."First, let me chain you up!" it announced.Beneath Damion, an exorcism circle gleamed, where a rushing chain came out and shackled his foot and arms, retraining him to move from his position."Alright! You better behave, so I can explain things better.""O!—I almost forgot!"From the exorcism circle, an arc flash a

"What the hell was that?"The transient vision he had seen wasn't that clear, but he did see a figure. He furrowed his brows and organized his thoughts as he seemed to be recalling something.He can't remember anything.He sighed and immediately rose from his bed, scratched his eyes, and then drastically shook his head. He later observes that his arms are too skinny; it is so unusual as his arms weren't like that before.Out of surprise, he quickly got out of bed and went to check his other body parts in the bathroom mirror. He was left gaping in surprise as he saw his body reduced to skin and bones. "What the hell happened to me? Why do I look like this? I look like a living corpse!"He looked like a malnourished person who had not eaten for several weeks.[COMMOTION NOISES]A sudden noise then made

It was none other than the enigmatic aphenome, his presence exuding an aura of confidence sauntering, with his voice praising, "Not bad; it seems like you have been well trained for battle.""But are you ready for what I'm going to do next?"[WOOSH!]A sudden gush of wind occurred, slicing and clearing the unclear vicinity.[RUSHING FOOTSTEP NOISES]As Alexander's gaze pierced through the chaos, his eyes locked onto the approaching aphenome, wh
