'Now… for the mission!'
Serah rushed to the site of the cocoon, reaching there almost in an instant thanks to her new form.
As soon as she arrived right in front of the massive orb, though, she was met with a voice.
"I've been expecting you."
Her body fidgeted in shock for a moment, considering how she hadn't sensed any presence until the words were spoken.
Swiftly turning her attention to her side, she saw Kuzon floating calmly.
'How long has he been waiting? He was here first?' Serah asked herself.
She was certain that she had swiftly ended her battle with Gerard, so it came as a surprise that Kuzon was already done with his task.
"I know what you're wondering, but don't think too much of it. My opponent was probably just weaker." Kuzon shrugged.
His expression remained the same—serious and unperturbed—as he locked his sight on the black chrysalis they had to destroy.
"Didn't your opponent have a Constellation Shard, though? That means they were strong."
