Fwiickk.

Then it melted like the black-blooded man that Cassion had just cut.

"...!"

Aris was surprised.

As Cassion said, the black-blooded man was not immortal. This had become something of certainty. When Ruel saw Leo, he shook his head.

—No purification.

If it's not purification, what should he call it?

Never before had such a power been introduced.

Ruel coughed and watched the ice split apart.

"There's a drop of black water on his body. It's in a different in location, but if you cut it, it melts like that."

The way Cassion described it proved how dangerous and difficult it was to defeat.

It wasn't the method that just anyone could use.

When Ruel glanced back, Cassion followed his gaze.

And he spoke after seeing his gesture of making an X with his arms from a distance.

"There's no more."

"...Yes."

Ruel took a step forward.

The number of black-blooded men left is five.

—This body will do it.

Leo hovered around Ruel, anxious.

"Cassion."

"Yes."

"Did you take care of all the monitors?"

"We've taken care of it."

In response, Ruel took another step, inhaling Breath.

Ruel's complexion grew bluer and bluer because of the fever, the cold, and the nausea.

"Ruel-nim."

Cassion couldn't wait to call Ruel.

He couldn't help it, but unlike last time, there were many black-blooded men.

"Cassion, take care of what is left. And..."

Ruel glanced back and raised the corners of his mouth.

The target he had to pick up from Dotol would become indebted to him, so he would come after him on his own.

"What about the Knights?"

Jjeok.

"It is far gone."

He was relieved. Unlike before, it was night now.

A time when shadows fall all over the world.

Ruel's eyes shone.

Aris shook his sword tightly at the sight.

—This body! This body will do it!

Leo was restless and almost clinging to Ruel's feet.

"Don't push yourself too hard."

Ruel smiled briefly at Leo and moved his shadow.

Big enough to wrap all five of them.

—Ruel! This body...

"Go to sleep."

Ruel ordered.
