After hearing all his explanations, Oliver fell silent with a shocked face. He did not expect that now thousands of years had passed. But during that time, it turns out Osmond is still alive using his body.
There was anger, regret, but also sadness in his gaze. I don't know what he's thinking, nobody knows.
"I have to take responsibility for not finishing him. Even he made a mess using my body" Oliver said.
"Then what to do next?" ray said with an excited face. His face was so cloudy like a place that would be hit by heavy rain.
"Why did he do all this? Is he trying to destroy the world?" sergeant Radolf with my eyes.
"We better be quiet if we don't want to lose anyone again" Felix who was just silently wailing now opened his voice. His face was flat with darkened eyes. "It's free to beat him if the people around us die."
Oliver looked at the people around him. No spirit whatsoever is emanated. Even their feelings were like a cloudy sky. Nothing would go well if all these people lost their spirits.
"Yes, maybe what you're saying is true. Fighting will only make a precious person die and maybe it's better to be quiet while taking care of yourself and the person next to us" Oliver said.
Felix immediately looked at Oliver who was sitting a few meters away from him, but faced each other, "Then–"
"Then, how is it different from what it is now? Confused, insipid, incapacitated, on the verge of death that somehow happens. Do you want to die doing nothing? Maybe when you guys don't fight, they kill another demon. But later, you'll get a share.
Would you rather die doing nothing? If so, then you better stay here and find a safe place until the day of your death comes" Oliver continued.
Oliver stared intently at the people around him, "Do it if you want to die miserably. After all, a weak being was not needed to fight a demon like Osmond. Therefore, maybe you do not deserve to be able to fight it. You are weak, cowardly, cowardly, and pathetic."
Felix clenched his hands when he heard Oliver say, "You don't deserve to say such a thing–"
"Then if I don't deserve to say it, let alone you? Ck," Oliver clicked his tongue with a cynical smile, "Thank you. You're all... Pathetic."

Osmond and Michael were now in front of a huge towering tree. Even so tall, the tree was like it pierced through a gray sky.
The size of the tree is so large that it makes no sense to anyone who sees it. Around the tree was so arid that the ground cracked. But the tree can grow.
"Your hand?" Osmond glanced at both of Michael's arms which turned into bones.
"It's because of the man's ability. His strength was quite sinister," Michael spoke without a tone. There was no pain in his expression.
"You better heal your arm soon. Now is the culmination of my plan. Too bad I can't catch Ken and put the human world in this mess. But it's okay, this is enough, because there are representatives of them" Osmond said with a serious face.
"I still don't understand why you did this stupid thing. Is she that important to you?"
Osmond glanced at Michael with a cynical face, "You'll never understand at all about feelings."
Michael kept quiet and Osmond continued, "Again, you're happy, right? Any minute... You can get it."
Michael who was originally flat-faced suddenly changed. His smile was fluffy, yet it looked creepy. Coupled with his sharp glaring eyes, it made Osmond shudder.
"Well, this has nothing to do with me" Michael said casually.
"I didn't expect that there would be any demons contributing to this. I didn't expect at all. But what he did was very beneficial to me. He made this tree and made it easy for me to create the undead without him knowing," Osmond said as he glanced at the large tree behind him.
Michael smiled wryly, "You know what? Wasn't I good at it?"
"...I've waited a long time for a time like this. Even my patience is almost gone. But I'm trying to be patient and wait, so I'm helping you make this day happen."
"Yes.. I didn't know you could be this patient" Osmond replied with a flat face. "Therefore, no mistake."
Around them were already many undead. Their circumstances varied, but none of them looked unsightly. They are terrible and give off a stinging stench.

Because Oliver continues to heat up the manation of everyone around him, eventually some of them will come to attack. Only humans do not participate. According to him, human beings are indeed not able to if they have to fight the power of Osmond. Although some of them wanted to come, but he refused.
"Today comes... What the old grandmother had predicted turned out to be true. Osmond will come back and make a mess. But I'll make sure, this is the last time he can do this. I won't let him do it again" Oliver said.
Although he wanted to immediately go to attack Osmond and his men, but he had to pay attention to the condition of other demons who would come with him. They are not in good condition in mind. While body? That was also the thing he noticed.
With the wounds that had just been created, the energy that had been drained, the mentally exhausted, he could not lead them to the main stage right now. At the very least, he would let them rest until later in the morning. Although he knew, the sky would not give much change, even though the day had changed.
Everyone fell asleep to rest for a while and prepare themselves the next day. It's Oliver who doesn't sleep and keeps.
Felix couldn't sleep. He sat down leaning against the tree, looking at Oliver who was a few meters in front of him, "Are you satisfied to have them fight?"
Because of the quiet place, the slightest sound could be heard. Including the voice of Felix. He looked at the young man with earrings hanging from one of his ears, "I am not satisfied. If it's just this number, there's only a small chance of winning."
"I am deeply saddened to have lost one of my precious people now, teacher."
Oliver blinked a few times while looking at Felix with a frown, "Teacher? Meanin?"
"Did the teacher forget the child you raised before? Even had time to fight when the war against Osmond occurred."
Oliver instantly flinched. He stood up from his seat and walked over to Felix. Hearing that remark must have made him curious. Since then, he has been familiar with the boy. But he's not sure. Now that thousands of years had passed, he was unsure if the demon before him was the same demon. But hearing Felix say the teacher by himself, made him even more curious.
After squatting in front of Felix, Oliver observed the child's face with one of those earrings. The face he knew clearly as his disciple and as a child he had cared for since childhood.
"Lux?! Are you really Lux?!" cry Oliver.
Felix's reflex immediately stuffed Oliver's mouth with his palm. He didn't want others to listen to what they were talking about right now. He did not want to disturb their rest.
Looks like Oliver understands. Therefore, he did not rebel when his mouth was smothered.
"I'm right Lux. And now I'm sure, if you were a teacher, not Osmond disguised as you. But don't yell anymore."
Oliver nodded in understanding. Felix immediately let go of his hand and kept it out of his teacher's mouth.
"Why did the teacher leave then? You didn't even tell me where you were. I feel like I'm not considered by you" Felix said with a flat face.
"Sorry.. I have to hide and recover. You know for yourself, when Osmond and his servant didn't really die. You're on the front line and you know it. They only retreated temporarily, not perished. But now, I'm going to destroy them both."
