Velion's expression was unlike his usual calm one.
It was sharp, and serious.
He knew what the creation of Independent Space meant: There would be no interference now.
They could face the Heavenbreaker without worrying about reinforcements or interruptions.
But that didn't make it safer.
They had all heard the stories of the Heavenbreaker. Stories of his nigh infinite will, and impossible feats.
'If only 'I' hadn't taken away the Golem from us. This battle would've been far easier,' Velion thought bitterly.
Kaelus looked at him. "Did 'I'… betray us?"
"It seems like it. He told us the seal would hold the Heavenbreaker for eternity. But that wasn't true," Velion muttered.
Kaelus clenched his fists.
Why had 'I' done that?
Why would he lie?
Surely he should have seen this coming.
So why hadn't he prepared for it?
Velion had similar thoughts, but he forced the thoughts away.
Now wasn't the time to question the past.
