It would have been nice if Arsil could have said something instead of just shedding tears.

But her lips wouldn’t move.

Her heart, heavy with helplessness and emptiness, belatedly reminded her of something called shame.

She knew she owed him an apology, but she was terrified of what he might say in return.

“Ugh…”

“Lin!”

Lin, unable to hold out any longer, collapsed from the strain on his shoulder wound after blocking Agreus’ attack. Rabin, alarmed, quickly caught Lin in her arms. Seeing the cold sweat forming on Lin’s forehead, Arsil felt an overwhelming guilt. She was right to feel this way—it was all her fault.@@novelbin@@

The moment Arsil’s skill ended, the holy power sphere also dissipated.

"Give it back…! The holy power!"

Agreus, seeing Arsil regain her senses, grew even more frantic. The poison that had been used to inflate his body was purified, shrinking his form. Yet the demon had no intention of letting Agreus continue to make things worse.

[You fool. You haven't even recovered yet!]

The demon Angria, knowing that without the flesh mass, it couldn't manifest in the world, forcibly suppressed Agreus.

[Nothing goes right unless I handle it myself, it seems.]

Agreus was forced back into the flesh mass, and Angria's voice filled the room again.

[Hand over Lin peacefully, and maybe I’ll let you all live.]

"You expect us to believe that? I’ll never be your pawn again!" Rabin shouted defiantly, her voice filled with rage.

[Is that so? Well, you refused my mercy. Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance.]

The demon raised its tentacles lazily.

"Arsil! That thing was created through unholy methods—it's weak to holy power! Use your skill, now!" Lin shouted urgently, his voice filled with desperation.

Just as Arsil gathered her holy power into her hands, a chilling warning came her way.

"Move one step further, and Rabin dies."

Sellemey appeared to Angria’s left, twirling a gleaming blue spear.

“How unfortunate, Rabin. I thought we could have been great friends,” Sellemey mocked.
