"You're such a fool!"Zeion was startled by those words. "What did you say?" he asked angrily."You may have become stronger, but that's only when facing that creature earlier! What if you try to fight me? Are you brave enough?"His expression changed instantly. So far, his pride might have been just words, but facing Zero, who had more power, felt like a tough task.“Why? Why are you turning away from me?” Zero taunted, his expression provoking Zeion's emotions even more. “Are you scared!”"Hah..." Zeion wanted to retort, but he realized that Zero, once again, wasn't an opponent to be underestimated. If he spoke rashly, Zero might act even more brutally than usual.Zero snorted after receiving no response from Zeion, his body folding with arrogance. "If you're still hesitant to do it, then you need to more focus!""I did try my best earlier, but you suddenly summoned that strange creature! My concentration is shattered now, so what should I do?""Start over!" Zero replied spontaneous
While Desmon was busy dealing with Hander, Hengerg seized this moment to prepare himself using a special power, which he then used to bind Desmon's body. This event resembled what Gein experienced, but the improved pressure produced stronger results.With his great energy, Desmon tried to break Henberg's concentration."Argh... indeed, his strength is immense, but I have enough perseverance to withstand all of this!" His words were merely a statement; the pressure exerted truly had high intensity, even causing difficulty in regulating his breath. "I must endure... I must not retreat from all of this..."He kept trying defend himself, his hands beginning to stiffen and grow cold.Whoosh...Suddenly, Hander approached Desmon's body, skillfully and boldly using special movements that resulted in a binding energy circle. His entire body began to struggle to hold on."Damn, what are you doing?" Desmon exclaimed.Without answering, Hander's hands remained busy assembling something rather st
Inside the special room, several people sat with seriousness etched on their faces. They each wore distinctive attire indicating that they were not ordinary citizens.Three of them sat in silence, refraining from initiating conversation. One had chosen to close their eyes, another was reading a book, and the third was simply gazing around. Each of them seemed indifferent to their surroundings, and if it weren't for someone's insistence, they wouldn't have bothered gathering in this place.Tap! Tap!The door opened accompanied by the sound of footsteps. After seeing, that it was the person they had been waiting for. With a white beard and narrow eyes, it was Henberg.Henberg stood for a moment upon reaching the table, observing the three individuals present. However, there were two empty chairs and only one chair without an occupant besides his.Slowly, Henberg leaned his aged back against the chair. The others began to take it seriously."You've finally arrived!" uttered a man with a
After hearing Henberg's words, everyone present fell silent. They needed quite some time to contemplate all these problems, as it seemed that everything had become so complicated due to Desmon's emergence.Barnom with a grim expression, continued to envision Desmon's presence. He was unlucky enough to see Desmon directly, but from the notes and information received, Desmon's power was enough to make his body tremble."Are you sure that if we unite our strength, we can face this problem?" Barnom asked, showering Henberg with a firm gaze.Meanwhile, Henberg still looked weary and helpless, shaking his head slowly."I'm not too sure if we'll be able to confront that creature. You all understand that Desmon's power is terrifying. Both of us almost perished trying to strengthen the seal on Desmon's body! If we want to defeat it, the answer is impossible. However, if we think about sealing it, that can be done!"In the end, it was the most reasonable choice for them to make. As aging hermit
"For the next few months, right!" Hander quickly sipped on his cup of water, the bitter taste touching his tongue not strong enough to dull his mind."I find it hard to believe that all of this will become so complicated like this!" Henberg replied, accompanying Hander's time."Well, what can we do? In times like this, all we can do is believe that it will still continue!""What about his condition?""Hmm...." Hander's eyes glanced wearily in another direction, a thousand bitter expressions on his lips.From his expression alone, Henberg could guess the condition.However, Hander still said, "With each passing day, I understand less about this condition! We understand that Desmon's power is one of the most dangerous, and if it is ignored, no one will survive! But, on the other side, we must not forget that Zeion will still be present!"Henberg raised an eyebrow, the name Zeion still managed to escape from Hander's mouth despite the slim chance of believing whether Zeion's bestowed vic
Henberg now just sat silently with a face that gazed at his friend, he was filled with confusion about what had happened. Hander fainted when he visited him.It had been the last 4 months since they had met, and the changes were clearly visible in Hander's unhealthy body. His skin was pale with a high body temperature, he didn't know what Hander had experienced, but this was different from just checking the condition of the shackles received by Desmon."Ugh..."Hander's eyes opened, and Henberg immediately sighed deeply. "I thought you were dead..." he said with a tone of relief."Do you want to tell me to die first? I will still survive even though it feels difficult!" Hander replied firmly, his face so melancholy as he stared at the ceiling."What happened?" Henberg suddenly asked.7 hours passed, and after waking up, they were confronted with a quite heavy topic of conversation. Hander felt reluctant to answer that question, slowly his face looked at Henberg who was still waiting f
After emerging from within the dome's environment, Hander's condition did not immediately improve. He had to calm his pounding heart.Henberg leaned Hander against the tree trunk."Are you alright?" Henberg knew this was a foolish question, but it had to be asked.There was no response from Hander, his breath continued to come out repeatedly without pause.A container of water was immediately given to Hander."Drink this, your condition will better soon!" Henberg said with the intention of supporting him.Slowly, Hander drank the water given by Henberg, so many sips until all the water was gone."We'll rest here for a while, and once everything has improved, then we'll leave from there..."Hander simply nodded.For an hour they were still at that location, Hander's face, previously covered in a cold sweat, gradually began to brighten. He could breathe more freely.Although the condition was better, Henberg still worried about Hander's health. However, this responsibility was already t
Not long after, Houjin went from where Henberg was. Gilbert had been watching the building the whole time, curious as to why Henberg was so serious about this matter. For some time now, Henberg had been silent about it, with no clarity on the matter.And often, when asked, Henberg would only say he was visiting an old friend, but several times Gilbert had seen Henberg grimacing in pain as if he had been in a fierce battle."What's really going on? Why is that old man visiting Master Henberg's place? He seems to have a secret..."He understood this was Henberg's personal matter, and as a student, it wasn't appropriate to meddle in an impending problem. However, he couldn't contain his curiosity.He immediately walked towards Henberg's room, eager to know what Henberg was really thinking after all this complexity.His ears gently tried to catch what Henberg was discussing inside, faintly hearing Henberg's troubled breathing."I suspected master was hiding something! Master forgive me, I
