lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body leaned against the spear supporting his tired frame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His golden eyes gazed down at his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fifty or so beasts lay dead there, shredded into pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their blood dripped from the corpses, slowly getting soaked into the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fuck, where is he?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aimar groaned in frustration as he straightened his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes, filled with anger and exhaustion, turned around, looking at the cave-like place he had been teleported to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aimar turned to look back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A group of frightened students stared at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A girl with orchid hair stood at the forefront alongside his brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah,\" Aimar replied to Miley before he walked forward toward the place that seemed to be the end of the cave. \"Follow behind me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sudden sticky feeling crawled over his skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere burst out, and in the next instant, he found himself in a different place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehehe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the first thing he heard was someone's eerie laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes adjusted to the light as he gazed forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And his blood froze at the gruesome sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A skinless man hung in the air with his limbs stretched by blackened hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His every muscle was visible, pulsating with every drop of rain falling on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze fell behind the man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A silver-haired girl broke the ribs of the man from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it wasn't the first rib she broke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few of them were already torn out, placed in such a way that they resembled the wings of an eagle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you liking it, Bradyn?\" Shyamal's delightful voice echoed in the rain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did he notice something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…The skinless man was breathing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The students behind him started to vomit, some even fainting at the sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aimar?\" Shyamal's confused voice echoed as her crimson eyes landed on him. \"...What are you doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Who is he?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aimar asked, taking a step back as she walked toward him, soaked in blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Some nobody that hurt Azariah,\" Shyamal replied as she looked at him. \"Where is he?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Athlea also walked toward him, a sickening look on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I lost him,\" Aimar whispered softly as he glanced back. \"Take care of them—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let them die,\" Shyamal cut in, turning around. \"We should help Azariah instead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aimar mentally sighed, rubbing his temples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he wanted to refute her words, the gruesome sight behind

island quaked violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hide!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aimar yelled as a blinding ray of light engulfed everything in its path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rings on his hands moved forward, opening multiple portals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The same happened behind them, forming a layer of protective barriers in front of everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A silence loomed for a split second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An explosive shockwave erupted, uprooting the trees in its path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The debris hurled inside the portal, rushing out of the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The illusion covering the island was removed from existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Azariah.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shyamal whispered quietly, concern clear in her voice as she looked back at Aimar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A bronze tree at the epicenter of the island appeared, free from the fog of illusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her body blurred the next instant, and Aimar followed behind her toward the center of the island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[A few moments

flared up, forming a sword that became an extension of Azariah's hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An eerie aura that threatened to consume everything burst out of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Azariah leaped forward, swinging his sword down, aimed at \"His\" throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CLANG!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ragnar's hand blurred, sweeping Naraka upwards. Their weapons collided mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The collision illuminated the place with a bright light before a shockwave erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Azariah's body flew back like a broken kite, cutting through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Arghh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ragnar's gaze turned back at the sound of someone groaning in pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His spiraled golden eyes looked down at Ethan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan looked up at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ragnar kicked Ethan's face, knocking him unconscious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pathetic pest,\" he spat, his deep voice laced with disgust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body blurred as he appeared mid-air beside Azariah, raising Naraka high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Azariah bit his tongue hard enough for blood to leak from it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naraka descended at a threatening speed, ready to split him in half.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Azariah's body turned into a cluster of blood, falling down before vanishing into thin air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pool of blood spread on the ground flared up, and his body slowly emerged from it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sekhmet,\" Azariah whispered shakily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eyes of the towering woman behind him glowed, staring at Ragnar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ragnar floated mid-air, gazing back at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A look of hesitation appeared in his eyes before a beautiful yet threatening marking emerged on his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air around Ragnar grew heavy as the mark of the crimson sun on his forehead burned brightly, traditional tattoos of chains covering the rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Absolute reversal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ragnar whispered softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Azariah's destiny changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gasped for breath as the surging power in his body slowly depleted, his left hand melting, returning to its original state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pool of blood slowly started to vanish along with the solitude of the woman behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next instant, Ragnar was on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Urghh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A kick to his midsection sent Azariah's body flying back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It crashed through the trees until his body halted abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Azariah!?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A concerned voice echoed in his bursting ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His spine felt like it was breaking apart while his eyes could barely open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Azariah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone helped him sit back up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze fluttered as he looked at the girl with white hair wearing a winged helmet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Azariah's eyes widened as he recognized Arianell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Run!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He yelled, pushing her aside and standing back up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tearing sound of wind made him look forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naraka rushed at him with a low booming sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without thinking, Azariah stood in front of Arianell, raising his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naraka turned into a cluster of crimson liquid before entering his arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next instant, Ragnar appeared in front of them, standing a few yards away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His confused gaze bore into Azariah, his lips parted. \"Naraka chose you over me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Azariah straightened his back, glaring at him while Arianell tried to support him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ragnar's gaze shifted toward Arianell as well, his hand slowly rising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Move,\" he ordered as Azariah stood in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Azariah didn't budge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As you wish,\" Ragnar whispered, conjuring a magic circle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it didn't end there as multiple layers of circles overlapped the previous ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all glowed simultaneously before a beam of white plasma rushed toward Azariah.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A golden sun disk conjured in front of him, engulfing the beam within it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Argh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Azariah's body was pushed back by the sheer force the beam generated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sides of the sun disk cracked until the beam finally stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Azariah knelt on one knee, struggling to breathe as the sun disk turned upside-down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A beam of light with twice the intensity rushed back at Ragnar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He brought his index finger forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beam of light touched his finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant, the threatening beam of light turned into thousands of harmless butterflies, spreading around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I sense Sabaoth's divinity from you,\" Ragnar mumbled softly, staring at him. \"...And Anastasia's divinity as well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Azariah bit his lower lip to keep himself awake as he glared at the man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...You seem important to Sabaoth,\" Ragnar said as he turned around, walking toward the gate of hell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arianell tried to rush toward him, but Azariah grabbed her wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shook his head, a pleading look on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tear trickled down her face as she smiled at him, gripping her sword tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before she could even move, a branch entwined with the handle of the huge door lying on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arianell yelled, rushing toward him, but Azariah grabbed her tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Creak!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door creaked open with a roaring sound, the air immediately turning sinister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A silence flowed through the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...Ragnar opened the first gate of hell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, how should I deal with you?\" His body turned, red hair fluttering as he gazed back at Azariah.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stay out of my matter,\" Azariah growled, conjuring a blade in his hand. \"...And I will do the same.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ragnar smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body blurred, arriving in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CRACK!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A punch landed on Azariah's chest, breaking parts of his ribs and throwing his body back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Azariah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arianell yelled before swinging her long sword at Ragnar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before it could reach him, a branch erupted from the ground, whipping her away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her body crashed hard into the thorne beside the bronze tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cluster of white entered Azariah's body while he struggled to breathe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[...Azariah.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>El's exhausted voice echoed in his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huff...
