A dimly lit, damp underground temple, illuminated by scattered candles, their flickering flames casting long, dancing shadows.
Massive stone pillars, over a thousand in number, supported the weight of the earth above. Each pillar was carved with the symbol of the ouroboros—the serpent eating its own tail, representing the cycle of infinity.
A temple dedicated to Ophis, the Infinite Dragon God.
At the center of the temple, on a circular stone platform, sat Ophis on an ancient stone throne, eyes closed, seemingly in deep meditation.
"Are they here yet?" a deep, masculine voice echoed from Ophis's lips.
The flickering candlelight revealed the figure standing below—a young man with silver, spiky hair and sharp features, dressed in a black trench coat—Vali Lucifer.
He leaned against one of the pillars, his voice laced with impatience. "Bikou, we still have a minute before Kuroka's supposed to arrive. Just be patient."
Vali's heart pounded in his chest. This temple, built to honor Ophis and used as a meeting place, was one of the Khaos Brigade's main bases.
The Khaos Brigade was comprised of many factions, one of them—the Old Maou Faction's—descendants of the Four Great Satans—decimated by Haru, they were effectively out of the picture.
