Chapter 26 "It Was You!". "No It Was You."
"Enough!" Celine"s voice resounded throughout the stadium.
Suddenly, a deafening magic fluctuation spread over the place. All arrays, including the defensive array of the Mercenary Hall, froze.
Even the black hole stopped expanding, barely missing Dante, who had fallen on his knees. His heart was beating furiously in his chest and he was sweating profusely. He felt like he had been doused with cold water as he stared at the edge of the black hole that was only two feet away from him.
"Just what kind of magic is it?" Dante wondered. That feeling of looking at a deep abyss left a big impression on him. Even now as he stared at the black hole, he felt that it was only a matter of time that he would be sucked into it.
"Here it comes," Kyran thought as his brows creased. When Celine had spoken, he actually timed it and made his magic stop expanding. Although because of it, his physical strength was constantly being drained, it was better to let her believe that she had control over the situation. Else it would be hard for him to escape once he revealed his face.
The magic barrier from the gallery where Celine stood was removed and the magic fluctuation around seemed to hum as she flew down. She took out a token and a pill and went to Dante.
"Take it," Celine told Dante and gave him the pill.
Dante did not stand on ceremony and immediately took the pill. He saw that it was a high-grade spirit restoring pill. By taking the pill, his almost depleted spirit reserve would be restored to at least 70%.
"Thank you, Hall Master."
[Don"t thank me yet. I need you to get ready. This man is not simple. I am not sure what his real purpose in coming here, but if he made any suspicious move, I want you to lead these mercenaries and provide support. I will take the lead to take him down.]
