In Thersland.
Edward was staying in his treehouse peacefully until a presence approached his house.
"!!!" Without hesitation, Edward turned around and leaped out of the house.
However, it was too late as an old woman stopped him. After that, another woman appeared before him. She had a blue-haired person like Theo, giving him enough information about their identities.
"Griffith Family, huh. Are you going to kill me?" Edward smirked and opened his hands, attaching the strings to his own neck, preparing to kill himself.
But before he could do it, the young woman immediately stopped him by saying, "Please don't. We're here under the command of your father and mother. The pope is protecting Theo, but they are also targeting you. So, we're here to help you get away from them."
"…" Edward hesitated for a moment and frowned. "Who are you?"
"Nella Griffith. Cousin Theo's number one fan and the person who will become his wife!" Nella winked her right eye.
"Theo's former master assigned by Madam Valerie and Sir Ray, Nina Eilric. I am a demon."
He had heard about Nella, but he thought she was a fake. Hearing Nina's identity was already enough for him because Nina had given him the password that Edward needed. This password had been instructed by Valerie and Ray to allow him to identify whether the person before him was an enemy or not.
"I understand. Do you have anywhere to go? Or do you want to follow me to my other hideout?"
"Do you have any other place? We're planning to go a bit farther from here."
"Then how about the lair of a King Class Monster?"
"King Class Monster?"
"Yes. Her daughter is with Theo, so we should be able to hide there." Edward nodded, explaining the situation.
Nella thought for a moment and agreed. "Sure. Let's go to the King Class Monster's lair. Even though this place is slightly below average, the Griffith Family surely won't think about the possibility of us hiding in a King Class Monster's nest."
"Let's go then."
Edward guided them to Avarice's place as Nella told him about the plan they had in mind.
…
Meanwhile, after hearing what Eric said, Valerie harrumphed. "Do you think you're the only one who can think something like that?"
"As expected…" Eric narrowed his eyes. "You were the only one who could produce the child of prophecy. With Ray's talent that was close to the ancestor himself and your talent in the mind game, that kid would surely become the brightest one.
"No… Should I say that Owen was the child of the prophecy while Theo is the one that will surpass him?" Eric grinned as though he had something big.
"Enough!" Valerie shouted and leaped back. She snapped her fingers.
Suddenly, three white lights took the shape of a ball and started shining. Each white light shot out a spear that bounced a few times on the ground before reaching Eric.
Eric waved his hand effortlessly.
The three spears suddenly shattered into pieces like glasses.
After that, a shadow emerged from the side and leaped toward Valerie, attacking her with a sword.
When Valerie was about to slay him, the shadow formed a human head. The head looked like a baby but with slightly denser blue hair. The baby's eyes were nowhere to be seen. Instead, there were only maggots crawling out of his eyes. The mouth was filled with blood as well.
He looked at Valerie and said, "Mother. You're going to kill me again?"
Valerie gritted her teeth and sliced the shadow into two.
"I know they're fake. You won't be able to fool me again. I have enough resolve to cut you down." Valerie clapped her hand as her body was enveloped by white light.
Before she could do anything, Eric raised his hand.
Suddenly, the building transformed. The pillars supporting the building crumbled into pieces and disappeared into thin air. All the walls except the outer wall also fell to the ground.
The ceiling collapsed, giving more space for their fight.
And the floor they stepped on was half destroyed, leaving only a huge platform that stood on top of two pillars.
A whole abandoned building turned into a massive cube with nothing except the platform where they stood.
This was Eric's illusion power. He completely turned the entire building into another form. It was scary, especially if they took a look at the thing beneath this one platform. There was nothing but endless darkness. Once they fell to this hole, they would never be able to come back.
Valerie had experienced this power once, so she didn't hesitate to clap her hands three times.
The light that enveloped her body dispersed in all directions and looped around to hit Eric.
Eric snapped his finger, and the reality they saw crumbled into pieces. They were then teleported into another space where there was nothing but darkness.
Valerie couldn't see a single thing and had lost her control over the light she released earlier.
Eric's voice soon echoed in her mind. "You're not my match. Since you come here to die, I'll kill you in the worst way possible and present it to Ray. I wonder if I should force you to be a bitch used by everyone first… I'm sure Ray will break this time. Hahaha!"
"You're sick!" Valerie gritted her teeth and focused on her Awareness. She then placed her hand on the ground to summon her spears that could break the space she currently saw.
However, the moment she placed her hand on the ground, the floor crumbled, and her body started falling.
Valerie looked around but still couldn't find anything. Suddenly, she waved the spear on her hand to the right and knocked off two unknown things that almost hit her.
But right after touching the unknown stuff, her feet touched the ground, making her confused.
A baby's voice started echoing inside the darkness.
"Mom. Why did you kill me?"
"Even if I needed to become a soldier, I still wanted to live."
"Why did you refuse to go back to the Griffith Family?"
"Why did you choose to threaten Uncle Eric with your life back then?"
"If not because of you, I could still live."
"Mommm… I hate you."
