“Let's continue the journey.” The young man stomped his feet to the ground, creating a violent surge of energy.
The leader of the mysterious army could see all of his troops suddenly explode before he turned into a blood clot.
Light suddenly smiled hearing those words.
“What is Lyan still in the soul room, Hermit?”
The young man's expression looked a little surprised. He laughed softly.
“How did you know? I was forced to take over Lyan's body to overcome the sneaks just now.”
Just a moment ago, from the soul room Master Gyo saw the danger threatening the physical body of his disciple. Having no choice made him decide to take over his disciple's body and speed up the process of body reconstruction with the help of Rain.
Master Gyo was actually still quite surprised by the level of power Lyan felt by herself right now. Even in the situation of speeding up the reconstruction of the body, the strength that trrdapay had on his disciple's body had reached the peak of the Realm Hermit. Almost through the level of the Earth Hermit.
Master Gyo then recounts the entire series of events that took place within the soul space. Light held his breath several times when he heard it.
“So Lyan won't return before successfully absorbing that soul crystal?”
Master Gyo nodded.
“The size is quite large. I doubt Lyan can absorb it in less than a year. We cannot just wait for something uncertain.”
“You have a point. If we just wait I doubt the rest of your time will be enough before we get your last soul piece.”
“Then from that we have to move now.”

On the Dark Continent, a handsome man dressed in a white robe seemed to be enjoying the beauty of the full moon on a high hilltop. Beside him was a beautiful woman who accompanied him.
The man smiled handsomely as his eyes glanced at the woman next to him who looked riled up.
“Is it really our goal here to learn the special technique you said, Master?”
Carera asked with a jutek face at the man who was none other than Laxus.
“The quiet and illuminated place of the full moon, where there is a more suitable place than this.”
“What does it mean?”
Laxus held the woman's shoulder.
“Listen to me, Carera. This technique I'm going to teach you is one of the greatest techniques in the world. You believe me, don't you?”
Carera nodded.
“To be honest you are not qualified to learn this technique because your body has a lot of negative energy. But we can reduce your negative energy to the stage where you can learn this technique.”
“How to?”
“To reduce the negative energy in your body, I will sacrifice myself by absorbing most of that negative energy.”
“Sacrifice yourself? Doesn't this hurt you?”
“Not until the stage of making my spirit disappear. I will only be exhausted and the other adverse effects will be overcome when I get my physical body back.”
“Alright, what should I do, Master?”
“Open your shirt.”
“What?”
Laxus looked serious. “To reduce your negative energy, we must become one. It may be quite tiring but I'm sure you'll enjoy it.”
THE PLAAAK!

In one of the restaurants of the Dark Continent, White, Snow, Raysmith and Ursula seemed to be enjoying dinner together with the Demon General and the Eagle Commander. They seem to be talking.
“Gresia already pulled my heart out at our first meeting. Because of the God of Heretical Damn I have to lose him.” Raysmith gulped down his wine while crying.
“Let's go home. He's been too drunk.” Snow who was wearing a hooded robe sighed.
“This old man always just troubles people every night.” White who was also wearing a hooded robe snorted in annoyance. He immediately picked up Raysmith and walked out of the restaurant with the others.
Amidst the return journey, Ursula who was walking behind with the Demon General and the Eagle Commander started the topic of conversation.
“Again about what we talked about just now, I still wonder why the emperor was able to come out alive from the Continent of Light. Especially you, Rion, then you'll be one step away from being a hermit. With such a level of strength, the emperor cannot possibly defeat you.”
The Demon General, Rion, put his hand back.
“Not that I don't want to tell you, I myself don't remember how the emperor conquered me.”
“But we thought we had remembered everything after the emperor returned our names. No matter how hard we try, all we remember is meeting with the emperor in the Continent of Light. Then Rion and I had confirmed our last memories before leaving the Continent of Light the same. After that meeting our memories became blurry and suddenly we were already kneeling before him.” Eagle Commander, Leon, massages his head.
Ursula was silent at their words.
‘Memory regarding their fight does not exist? I feel something is wrong.’

While above the sky appeared the emperor, X, was flying at high speed. He stopped right on a remote island. All the trees there looked barren. The animal's bones seemed to be scattered throughout its journey.
X stopped stepping when he arrived right in the middle of the island, he took out a black key that emitted a dark aura from the pocket contained on his golden robe.
Not long after that the black key flew by itself in the air. The aura from the key burst out, a door suddenly appeared and X immediately entered.
X went through a long hallway. When he reached the end of the hall, he saw a figure that gave off a deadly black aura seeming to be standing before a coffin.
“Are you sure Endless doesn't suspect your moves?” The voice of the figure sounded gripping.
“I've confirmed it.”
X stared at the back of the figure sharply.
“In the conditions of being under Endless surveillance, you asked me to come to this place. Looks like there's something important you want to say.”
The figure, Azrec, turned towards X.
“It's time to wake up three magic hermits.”
