“Did you speed up plans because of Endless?”
“Endless is indeed a threat but there are humans who are more dangerous than him.”
“There are humans who can make you threatened?” X was a little surprised. “Who is he?”
“Lyan's. The human is quite dangerous.”
X laughed softly.
“What's your reason for looking at that kid too high? It's not like your usual self.”
“Before Endless obliterated a small part of me, there was a part of me that survived. It was too weak so that Endless who had become a human could not realize it.”
Azrec turned to look towards X.
“And a small part of me is now in the Light Continent with that young man. He has become a hermit even almost penetrated the Earth Hermit in a short time.”
X eyes grew bigger hearing the word Azrec.
“If we are not vigilant and take action, that human will be a threat that is even much more dangerous than the gods.”
X could feel the demon's anxiety. But he disagreed with his plan.
“Your original plan was to wait for one of the three great hermits to break the thread of fate and become a God-Man. Accelerating their meditation process will only destroy everything.”
“There are other ways to force one of them to become a God-Man. Although not perfect, the power of God Man can still shake the realm of gods and demons.”
“Forcing them to become God Humans?” X laughed softly. “Interesting. What am I supposed to do?”
“You just need to come with me to the Void Realm. Next I will explain what you should do after meeting them. Since it took us quite a long time to reach the place of existence of the three magical ascetics, you must do something so as not to suspect Endless.”
“It's easy.”
X splits in two. He held onto his other body, the eyes of the body suddenly emitted a red radiance.
“This body will do anything according to my orders. Gods won't even notice it.”
Azrec grinned. “Good. Tell him to come back soon. We'll head to the Void Realm now.”

After listening to the explanation of the papu tribe leader, Yuna began to understand the situation that occurred during her entering the body reconstruction phase. Together with Youl, he follows the Papuans to their hiding place.
The hiding place is located underground. They had to pass down stairs and long hallways before reaching the hiding place.
Yuna and Soul met with other tribes after arriving there. They were the tribes that united to oppose Astaroth. Because the leader of the papu tribe explained that their newcomer was a partner who would fight together against Astaroth, he said, they were so friendly that in just a few days Yuna and Youl could quickly get along with them.
After a week passed, Yuna began to feel awkward because she had never met another tribal leader other than the papu tribe leader.
What only the woman saw all this time was that the person who always gave direction or ruled another tribe was the leader of the papu tribe. Other tribes also seemed to place a high regard on the leader of the papu tribe as if the fat man was the leader of their own tribe.
Yuna initially did not care but her curiosity about the existence of other tribe leaders was big enough that she decided to ask the papu tribe leader when they were both.
“Omong by the way I have never seen a tribal leader other than you. Where are they?”
The expression of the papu tribe leader seemed to have been waiting for Yuna to ask this.
“You want to meet them, papu? They can meet you anytime if you're willing.”
Yuna did not understand the meaning of the fat man's words. If it could be found at any time, for some reason until now he had never seen the nose of another tribe leader.
Yuna nodded in order to find out more quickly the reason the other tribe leaders did not show themselves.
The papu tribal leader guides the way.
“We have arrived, papu.”
When the big door was opened by the papu tribal leader, the cold that could penetrate the skin seeped out. Yuna could see some spirits flying in the air. The number is not much but what makes Yuna surprised is that each spirit there has the strength of a hermit and even feels much stronger than her at this time.
Without needing to hear Yuna's explanation of being able to figure out a number of spirits it was the leader of another tribe that had never been seen all along. With a look that still looked shocked he asked the fat man.
“How can strong people like them end up like this?”
“You will know the whole story if it manages to absorb them, papu.”
“You asked me to absorb the spirits of your colleagues?” Yuna could not help her surprise. The woman could see the sadness from the eyes of the papu tribe leader but the fat man smiled as if hiding it.
“This is for the sake of facing Astaroth. I'm sure they want it too.”
The leader of the papu tribe began to recall his conversation with the Dark Side of Soul that appeared a few days ago.
The Dark Side told her that Yuna could potentially get stronger by absorbing a spirit stronger than her.
“Papu, you must succeed in absorbing their spirits. That way our chances of defeating Astaroth are getting bigger. I wish full of you.”

After traveling for six months, Master Gyo and Light finally arrive at a remote island. They flew at high speed and stopped when they saw a cave.
“Prepared, Light! We'll meet them soon.” Master Gyo who took over Lyan's body reminded.
Light increased his vigilance, he could feel an overwhelming pressure coming out from within the cave which signified the opponent had realized their presence.
