As he got a good look inside, Theo froze.
'What the hell is that?'
At the center of the room, a single figure stood.
The figure was covered in a thick, dark, rock-like armor, completely encasing him from the outside.
It was nearly twice the height of a normal human, with thick horns protruding from its head.
All around it, dark earth spikes had grown out of the ground.
Theo's eyes widened.
'A demon?'
No, that wasn't it.
He knew that mana all too well.
The person inside that armor was definitely Owen.
'What… is even happening?'
Another familiar figure floated above Owen.
Waves of gray mana spread from his palms, encasing the room with chaos element as best as he could.
Then, his head snapped to Elise.
"Don't worry 'bout it," he said. "I got it under control."
Elise didn't respond, only tilting her head slightly as she looked at Owen.
''It doesn't look like it,'' she finally said, her tone even colder than before.
