As he left the house and fled to a nearby alley, two loud noises were heard from the dock.
Zev subconsciously turned around to see what was going on, and then saw Sheila Bane standing in the collapsed warehouse building and confronting Hulim.
Then an extremely strong sleepiness attacked Zev's consciousness, and he fell straight down, falling into the corner of the alley...
It was not until a day and a night later that he slowly woke up in the corner of the alley.
Although he survived, all his belongings and weapons were taken away from him while he was in a coma. If he hadn't been tortured in the dark prison for several days and his clothes were dirty, looking like a beggar, his clothes might have been taken away too.
After roughly figuring out what happened during his coma, Zev immediately panicked and wanted to escape from Langard, not even caring about the things he lost during his coma, because he knew that if he didn't escape, some terrible creatures would find him.
However, he was still a step slow...
"Sir, I'm so, so sorry! Someone poisoned the entire headquarters. Everyone was poisoned. I managed to escape, but I still fainted from the poison... So... I, I don't know what exactly happened."
The man in black robe said nothing and just looked at Zev quietly.
After a while, he slowly spoke two words.
"--Yeah?"
Zev shuddered and kowtowed quickly, saying, "Sir, please forgive me, please forgive me! I, I only know that this matter is related to a female student of Manakos. That girl has ruined some of our good things from the beginning, and this incident is also related to her!"
"A female student of Manax? Manax again..."
The man in black robe seemed to care quite a lot about this name.
"Tell me more in detail—"
"Yes... that was more than half a month ago..."
Zev told the man in black everything from the beginning to the end about his first encounter with Hulim, the scene he saw before he fell into a coma, and the other person's general appearance.
"Is that all?"
"Yes... sir, that's all I know..."
“Is that so—”
The man in black robe said this, and slowly turned around and took a step forward.
The other two men in black robes said nothing, turned around silently, and the three of them walked outside.
Noticing the three people leaving, Zev raised his head cautiously and asked, "Sir, then I—"
boom--!!!
Suddenly, a pillar of fire rose from the ground and enveloped Zev completely.
"ah--!!!"
With a scream, Zev's body gradually turned into ashes.
In the dazzling firelight, the black-robed man raised his right hand, and his sleeve slid down, revealing his right arm with a demon tattoo.
As the screams subsided, he lowered his right hand.
"Do you want to go back and report?"
A black-robed man walking in front asked.
"No, we can't just go back like this. At least... let some people pay the price first."
The black-robed man replied.
“… …”
The other black-robed man walking in front was silent for a moment and replied:
"Whatever, I don't care."
The black-robed man who asked the question earlier thought about it and nodded silently.
"Haha~!" The black-robed man in the back laughed. His pitch-black robe still couldn't hide his deep and dark eyes. "Then, let's have a good time~. Darkness will surely cover the world, and eternity will belong to Guros!"
The two black-robed companions paused, then said in unison:
"Darkness will surely cover the world, and eternity will belong to Guros——!!!"
