The flying blue butterflies broke into pieces and their remains slowly dropped to the ground.

The whole mansion was surrounded by the glowing blue dots.

Angele took several steps forward and reached out of the barrier with the right hand, catching several blue light dots.

The blue light dots landed on the center of his palm and turned into a small pile of ash.

"It's over," he muttered as he turned to Todd. "Todd?"

Todd just stood there quietly with his eyes wide open.

Angele hesitated for a second and realized what happened. He walked to Todd and put his right hand on the man's chest. It was cold and there was no heartbeat.

"He passed away..." Angele doubled-checked Todd's condition using Zero and concluded.

Suddenly, he heard people crying from the main door of the building.

Angele turned around and saw the two kids crying by the door. They stood there and stared at their father. There were tears brushing down his cheeks.

Angele felt a bit depressed, he carefully put his right hand on Todd's left shoulder.

Silver metal liquid covered Todd's body and Angele's force field slowly lifted him up.

He brought the dead body to the two kids.

"Let's go. We can bury him in the backyard so you can pay tribute to your father anytime you want," he spoke in a low voice. Angele wanted Todd to help him explore the realm but he did not expect Todd to use up all his remaining strength and lose his life so easily.

Angele walked to the backyard with the two kids.

There were already many tombstones in the backyard. The gray tombstones lined up the empty ground behind the small garden.

It was late in the afternoon. The orange sunlight shone upon the land.

Angele buried Todd carefully and engraved his name on the tombstone. The two kids broke into tears.

Angele was not sure what he should say to comfort them.

The Nightmare Realm was dangerous and most of the people already died.

The ancient wizards from the main world probably communicated with the intelligent creatures from the Nightmare Realm before the unfortunate event happened. However, it seemed like the realm was uninhabitable at the moment. Angele did not understand why Todd decided to burn himself out when the energy barrier was still holding up well against the blue butterflies. He should have demonstrated the strength of the barrier to Todd.

"Did your father teach you how to use the crystal card device?" Angele waited patiently until the two kids calmed down and questioned.

"Yes, we know how to use the device." Frey nodded slightly. Freia grabbed her brother's right hand; they knew they had to learn to survive in this chaotic world.

"Great." Angele nodded and patted the two kids' heads. "Your father did everything for you and I'm sure he wants to see you live a happy life. Take good care of yourselves."

"Yes." The two kids' expressions turned serious.

"Go have some rest. Use the training method your father taught you and start training tomorrow. Here, take this." Angele handed the crystal card device that he removed from Todd's arm to the two kids.

The black crystal card device weighed about seven kilograms; it might be a bit heavy for the kids.

Frey wiped the tears from his eyes and grabbed the crystal card device carefully.
