A familiar place.

A familiar cage.

'Can't say I'm completely used to it.'

Because it was not the imperial palace, but the Great Temple.

Aria groped her ankle.

The shackles, starting from her ankles and continued for long, vividly evoked memories of her unwanted past.

At that moment. The door opened and a man entered the room.

It was Gabriel.

'In the end, the only thing that has changed from the past is that the Emperor has changed to Gabriel.'

It reminded her of Carlin's words that the newly applied law would strangle her at a greater price.

Aria raised her head. And she had her eyes on Gabriel, who was getting closer and closer to her.

Certainly, from an objective point of view, Gabriel was so much stronger that he was incomparable to the Emperor.

"What do you want now?"

He wanted to possess her, so he must have a purpose.

Aria said with an expressionless face.

"Do you want me to sing a song?"

"..."

"The song won't have any effect, though."

However, Gabriel's expression changed slightly at her calm question.

He said, slightly furrowing his eyes.

"Don't say that."

"Why? Didn't you say I didn't have to understand?"

There was no way he would have done this to be understood in the first place. Gabriel would have known that Aria would act like this.

"What you've done is beyond my patience."

"I.... know."

Does he really know?

"Then why are you looking at me like that?"

Although Gabriel maintained his composure on his face, his helplessly swaying eyes revealed his agitation.

Aria sighed.

Even though she knew Gabriel was brainwashed, she found it difficult to contain her anger.

"Right, then at least you can tell the whole story about it for now."

"......If Lady Aria wants it."

Did he think that if Aria knew a few more facts in the situation that was already on the verge of catastrophe, nothing would change?

"Anything, I'll tell you."

Gabriel agonized, but eventually knelt in front of Aria obediently. His image overlapped with the Emperor's figure when he begged Aria to sing.

"That pattern, what is it?"

"It's the Devil's mark."

Devil?

Aria froze for a moment hearing the unexpected words.

Did the devil really exist? Although she wondered what a big deal it is that there is a devil in the place where God exists.

'How far are you going to fall?'

Could it be that they even borrowed the devil's power?

Her head was all pounding.
