Cold sweat poured from his temple. Echidna's eyes showed no hesitation when she said she would burn him to ashes.
"That's from there!" Echidna said in a cold tone.
That little girl who was supposed to look cute and adorable even looked very scary. The highlight of his sharp eyes gave Seypherd's body goosebumps.
Echidna stared at Seypherd for quite a while, her pupils then moved to glance at Oswald who was behind her. "God! Alright. He won't live long either." He said and then turned away.
Seypherd clenched his hand tightly until it trembled. He also knew that, but seeing his best friend had to be burned to nothing, making his heart wither.
"At least I want to bury the body." Heart murmur.
Helian looked at Seypherd's frail-looking shoulder, he extended his hand and wanted to approach him, but he immediately undoed that intention.
Helian turned around following Echidna who was already waiting for her at the door.
"Do you not want to accompany her?" Ask Echidna.
Helian shook her head then said "He needs some alone time. Let's go." Helian turned her head for a moment with a concerned face to look at Seypherd.
The two leave Seypherd alone with Oswald, who is on the brink.
As a result of the black crystal fusing with it, Oswald's body slowly lost its color. Slowly he looked like a broken old crystal that had no or reflected light anymore.
Little by little began to appear cracks in some parts of his body. Seeing that, Seypherd hurriedly pulled Oswald's body and laid him on the floor.
Seypherd looked down silent at his dying fellow struggle. The only thing that accompanied him in the room was just the silent atmosphere wrapped around his heavy inner being.

Daeron let out a laugh as he arrived in front of Yggdrasil. He held one side of his face. "Finally, I will finally get back up...!" His words were accompanied by a voice of laughter.
Daeron summoned the rebel soldiers who had previously been teleported to the Yggdrasil forest region. They swiftly lined up in front of Daeron.
The soldiers looked strange. Their appearance was almost the same as Oswald's, yet slightly rougher, as if the black crystals present on their bodies were not completely fused together.
It could be seen from several parts on their bodies where black crystals stood out. Their face, shoulders or back.
Were those soldiers the result of mutations from the experiment that Gephard had mentioned?
Daeron Mablung walked over with a grin approaching the Yggdrasil tree. He flicked his arm and gave orders to the soldiers.
The mutated warrior obediently immediately surrounded the Yggdrasil tree. They raised one of their hands to the sky and stuck it to the ground.
"Good, Good" Daeron's laughter filled the place again. "With this I will soon return to destroy this world. My terror will engulf everything in fear and despair."
The soldiers were like they were sucking the energy present within the Yggdrasil tree through its roots and as a feedback, they released impure Mana energy to pollute the huge tree.
As the king and husband of Helian, what exactly did Daeron plan to do?
He looked at the soldiers with great satisfaction. A black shadow flashed and blew at them instantly.
Daeron furrowed his brows. "Who's there? How dare you interrupt this Master's pleasure."
"This master? So ridiculous. Can you still act so arrogant after I swallow you?!" Answer the shadow owner.
The soldiers were entangled by the rope of a black shadow. They could not move, their bodies bent over the ground. Then the black shadow quickly moved and appeared behind Daeron.
"Bad! Looks like you're looking to die."
Daeron protected his body with magic before the mouth-shaped black shadow with its huge fangs devoured him.
"Almost I have a delicious breakfast." Fee shows his form in front of Daeron. He rubbed his lips with his tongue.
"You...." Daeron was astonished to see the figure of a black wolf in front of him. Such a strong presence. It was clear that the wolf was not an animal. "Do you not know who this Master is?" Ask Daeron.
"You don't have to mention it. I have no intention of getting to know you either. All I want right now is to swallow you up, that's all." Obviously Fee.
Daeron laughed. "Pretending it has its limits. I don't know if you're really strong or just a stupid animal?"
Fee smiled cynically. "Oh, are you curious? How about I give you the answer with this!"
Fee moved his legs slightly and a thorn almost pierced Daeron's body. Fortunately, he realized the attack and immediately dodged it. "Lumayan. What about this one?!"
Fee then creates three images of himself attacking Daeron. Then he roared very loudly making Daeron's body silent for a moment.
Daeron clucked in annoyance. He takes his opponent for granted. "When you're just an animal, don't act in front of me!" Daeron stomped his feet firmly to the ground and released the magic shield within a fairly wide range.
Fee's shadow disappeared instantly as they touched Daeron's magic shield.
Both of them arguably have the same skill in using black magic. The set of debuff magic that exerts a negative effect on their enemies and most magic with that element is either toxic or corrosive.
Fee was not so careless to face Daeron without thinking about the impact of their fight. He used a bit of his Mana to protect the Yggdrasil tree that was behind him.
The two then fight by throwing magic at each other. It was so fierce that the ground and the trees around them were destroyed.
Different from a physical fight, the fight with magic would only stop when one of them ran out of mana.
"Damn! I've lost a lot of Mana because of it. Wolf bi*d*p."
The momentum of Daeron's attack began to slow down and weaken. Seeing that, Fee throws a provocative sentence to make Daeron lose his patience and simultaneously to satisfy him.
"just that... Is 'This master' only able to say nonsense. Hehe, this 'Master' seems to be running out of Mana. Even I haven't expended half my strength."
Daeron bent his brows firmly, he tightened his jaw and looked at Fee full of anger. All this time he had never been humiliated like this, let alone just fighting a beast.
Daeron let go of his vain attitude. Suddenly he got a good idea.
"Hmm? Have you given up? Shouldn't you have done that earlier, so I shouldn't be tired of wasting my time."
"If I can't face you, why don't I pull you to join me." Mumbled Daeron.
After he saw Fee well. Daeron could sense that the origin of their strength was not much different. A negative feeling from the dirty Mana energy, Daeron thought that the two of them were not much different.
"Well, I give up, you win."
Fee chuckles. "Well, that's what I want. Now get ready for the"
"But wait, I want to offer you something."
Just as Fee was about to walk over to start his breakfast, Daeron stopped him with an offer. "What if you join me? You and I are not much different. I can feel that."
"Hoo.hoo....Joining you? So what can I get after I follow you?"
"You don't have to worry. Aren't you hungry? I can give you the best food in the world. With me we will conquer this world. Give them fear so that the lowly creatures know who we really are. Let them feel the power of a God and sink into destruction." Obviously Daeron.
Fee was silent for a moment. "Hmmm....." He closed both his eyes.
Daeron grinned.
The wolf was really considering his offer. Not knowing for what reason he stopped him from absorbing Yggdrasil's energy, but after he convinced the wolf to follow him, then he would have one great pawn.
"Hows it? Isn't my offer interesting?" Daeron asked once more to convince Fee.
He really could not wait to have that wolf.
"Interesting...Hahahah. I like your offer." Fee smile.
