"[Absolute... Obli..."
"[GREATER INSTANT VANISHING]!!!"
I was interrupted by chanting at an impressive speed, but what left me most shocked was the effect of the chant...
In a fit of terror, the demon king had not hesitated to use a skill, in which he disappeared from my sights INSTANTLY!?
Of course, I immediately became wary, remembering Scarlet's [Instant Vanishing] skill she showed me during our training yet...
"WHAAAAAT?!"
Wasn't he reappearing?
...
No, it can't be...
...
He still isn't reappearing...
...
...
...
'DID HE SERIOUSLY JUST RUN AWAY?!'
I was left shocked as I shook my head and looked around anxiously as I waited for him to appear...
but...
NOTHING!!!
"WHAT THE F**K!?!?!?"
I yelled at the top of my lungs as I looked around at the now empty crater. There was no sign of life other than a madwoman (me), yelling at the top of her lungs in it...
'Such a demon king, that Azazel guy is...'
I felt so frustrated...
'I was about to release [Absolute Oblivion] for such a coward...'
But as the frustration began pouring over into my head, an overpowering feeling came over me...
Worry...
"...SCARLET?!?!"
I jerked my head and looked around anxiously...
I don't know how exactly...
But...
When I turned to see where Scarlet had been laying...
...
No one was there...
...
...
...
I fell to my knees as I realized what had just happened...
...In the midst of my blind rage...
...I had just allowed...
...The one I wanted to protect...
...To fall to the very danger she ran away from...
...
My thoughts began racing immediately as my desperation rose...
After running away... losing the demon king seal... and even going as far as to fight the demon king and her father...
'she... might... get... killed...'
My emotions had been welling up to this point, as they finally broke free...
As I felt that first tear break free...
The rest followed in an unending stream, as I finally gave in to the sadness of allowing...
My friend...
To be taken away...
It was an indescribable feeling of guilt that was hurting my chest, far more than the reverberating wound on my abdomen...
