Chapter 65
Seeing Hemer crying, Yoren understood everything.
The Fire Demon Project had begun in secret without his knowledge. Hemer had been confident in its success, but something had gone terribly wrong.
The project was completely out of control.
The moment disaster struck, Saria had pulled Hemer out of the underground lab. Other staff members managed to escape as well.
But Ifrit was still inside.
The raging inferno consuming everything was caused by the Fire Demon Stone—now fused with her.
"Ifrit! Ah!"
Hemer's cries were heartbreaking. Yoren didn't know if Ifrit was still alive, but the sheer grief on Hemer's face sent a chill through his heart.
Just as he was about to ask Saria what had happened, another wail—louder, more hysterical—echoed from nearby.
"Wow, wow, wow! All my Mibos are dead! Ahh! Give my Mibos back to me!"
Melantha sat on the ground, sobbing, snot running down her face.
