Chapter 584: Shocking Harry, Ron, and Hermione with Magic!
The purple, demonic rings around Kai's hazel, reptilian slits pulsated with pure wrath.
Some 10 minutes ago, he had lost contact with Black. It wouldn't have been much, but even the two parts of the Ad Infinitum, who had never gone out of sync since their division, had also failed to share data among themselves.
Kai had still been in Darcie's form then.
At first, he had thought the Order of Immortal Lotus had somehow related Black's existence to an Outer One, finally acting against him.
However, he had also realized soon enough that even the Order wasn't capable of actually causing desynchronization between the AIs.
At best, the Order could have set up a Bounded Field, trying to keep things quiet.
But Kai had already confirmed that Bounded Field couldn't prevent him from sharing data with Black's AI. Moreover, even the Reality Marble couldn't prevent the two parts of the Ad Infinitum from contacting each other.
Regardless of the case, Kai had found it best to not act out, letting Darcie stay put at her place for the time being.
But then minutes went by, showing no sign of Black's return.
There was no force Kai knew that could keep the AIs out of sync for so long.
