HIDORI:
"Well well… the place I'm escorting you to is—"
HIDORI (turning around, eyes glinting):
"—Holy White Castle."
FLUX (suddenly halting):
"Wait… wait… you don't mean—"
HIDORI (smirking):
"Oh? So you know... who he was?"
MIKE (confused):
"What? Who's that, Flux?"
FLUX (serious, eyes glowing faintly):
"Well… I sort of know who he was."
> He was... someone who could split multiverses apart with a blink.
FLUX (raising his voice slightly):
"He was someone so pure… that if you even had 1% corruption in your soul, and you looked at him, you'd get vaporized."
FLUX (eyes intense):
"He was someone feared not just by gods… but even angels whispered his name in fear."
FLUX (voice softening, almost in awe):
"He was someone so beautiful... that if you gazed upon him, you'd lose your vision forever."
FLUX (stepping forward, tone sharpening):
"His swordsmanship... unmatched.
Not a single being in history could dodge his blade."
MIKE (shocked):
"Then… how do you fight someone like that?"
FLUX:
"You don't fight him. You endure his attacks.
But there's only one person… one single person who could do that.
I don't know the name, I only heard the story."
MIKE:
"Damn... how do you even know all this?"
FLUX (smiling faintly):
"My mom told me when I was a kid. I thought it was just a fantasy...
But she always said... 'It's real, Flux.'"
HIDORI (chuckling darkly):
"Well, well...
You know a lot more than I expected."
HIDORI (turns to Flux, tone deepening):
"But tell me...
Do you know... his name?"
FLUX (stares down, uncertain):
"Right now... no."
HIDORI (steps forward, voice echoing like thunder):
"Then remember it now."
> "His name... was Arie White."
