"Why is that ant here, where is Amadeus?" Though Grindergan.

"Where are you looking at!?"

Grindergan turned and saw Lucy's kick just in front of his face.

*BUM*!

Grindergan was sent flying.

He spat blood.

"You should know by now"

He looked and saw Lucy looking at him from the sky.

"You are no match for me" Said Lucy.

"Fuck!" Though Grindergan.

He was 100% sure that Amadeus would kill Alfonso and the power of the red gas would be more than enough to kill Lucy.

"FUCK,FUCK,FUCK! THAT TRASH AMADEUS! " Though Grindergan.

From Lucy's hand, black energy concentrated on Lucy's hand.

"[Allure of Darkness]"

The world around Grindergan became black. He wasn't surprised though, as this was one of the most famous moves of the Queen of Darkness.

"Even if I am a demon, I can't manipulate the darkness in this space" Thought Grindergan.

He hadn't fought directly with Lucy before, but 'he' has told him about this power.

"I won't kill you"

Grindergan felt a voice behind him, he didn't need to guess who's voice he was hearing.

"You know why, don't you?" Said Lucy.

"Damn…" Said Grindergan.

He turned and slashed in the infinity of darkness.

*Zzzz*

He heard a small sound on his right side.

"From here" He thought.

Lucy's green pupils shone in the darkness while soul power accumulated on her right fist.

"This won't kill him" Thought Lucy.

Lucy hit Grindergan, but something felt strange.

"Not resistant at all!?"

*Crack*

*Crack*

The bones of Grindergan broke and all his body bleeding from the inside, however, in his

"Heh, you lose, Lucy!" Shouted Grindergan.

In a moment, the world of darkness disappeared.

"SHIT!" Shouted Lucy.

The place where Grindergan was sent flying…

Was were Alfonso and Carmine were!

"CARMINE CAREFUL!" Shouted Lucy.

"DIE!"

Carmine, who was still in the arms of Alfonso, saw the incoming Grindergan, however, she didn't have the strength to stop him!

"Alfonso! Run!" Shouted Carmine.

"…"

Alfonso stood there in silence.

He looked calmly at the incoming Grindergan.

"Strange, how come I am calm, despite knowing that I am probably going to die?" Though Alfonso.

"Drakini"

"S-S-Sir"

"Do it"

Alfonso used almost zero-time soul power against Amadeus, so, with the assistant of Drakini and [oversoul] he could use his powers for some time now.

"The infinite power is mine!" Said Grindergan.

He could already see the head of Alfonso separating from his body and the pendulum giving him the infinite power that it had promised to him.

"I WILL NO LONGER BE A PAWN!"

*DING*

Grindergan felt a tremble from the pendulum.

It sounded exciting.

"Welcome home"

Grindergan listened to the whisper of Alfonso.

*Zzzz*

The pendulum vibrated madly.

However, Grindergan sounded different.

For some reason, Grindergan didn't hear a vibration.

He heard an voice.

An earning voice.

A voice that implored…

That begged…

To be with its beloved one.

The pendulum left his collar and pointed at Alfonso.

"You promised me…"

The pendulum broke the necklace on Grindergan's neck.

"You promise…"

A memory came to his mind.

When he first encountered the pendulum.

When he looked at it…

It looked back at him…

"I WILL BE YOUR STRENGHT"

"USE ME"

"I AM YOURS ONLY"

The pendulum showed him a life beyond hell.

Where he only, stood at the top.

His destiny changed that day.

He planned.

He betrayed.

He submitted.

He did everything.

Just for that promise.

"YOU PROMISED ME!!!!!" Shouted Grindergan.

*BAM*

Grindergan hit the wall and blood sprayed from all his holes.

He looked up and saw Alfonso's white hair and green eyes looking at him.

The pendulum was now resting on Alfonso's neck.

Alfonso looked at the eyes of Grindergan.

"I am sorry" Said Alfonso.

The eyes of Grindergan twitched.

He coughed blood and fainted on the spot.

"…" Alfonso looked at Grindergan and then back at the pendulum.

The pendulum vibrated with happiness as it swung from the left to the right.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host! For completing the mission]!

The message from the system sounded on Alfonso's mind.

However, Alfonso didn't have time to pay attention to the system.

"This is incredible…" Though Alfonso.

"It's beautiful"

Alfonso heared a voice.

He looked down and saw Carmine looking at him.

Carmine looked at the emerald aura coming from Alfonso.

In an instant, she felt her injuries healing.

However, she didn't notice this.

Carmine, being a human who has longed for the aura of life since she abandoned the land of the living.

Right now, Alfonso was emitting a soul aura like never before.

However, it also had a trace of a living aura on it!

"This is…"

"This is what we had longed for so long…"

Carmine placed her hand on Alfonso's cheek.

"It's so beautiful" Said Carmine.

"…" Alfonso saw the beautiful eyes of Carmine and felt a little shy.

However, he didn't stop her.

Carmine put her arms around Alfonso's neck and rested her head on Alfonso's shoulder.

Although Alfonso wasn't a gentleman, he wasn't a playboy either, so he decided to put an end to this.

Although he couldn't deny that Carmine's body felt quite good.

"Carmine, I…"

"What do you think you are doing"

Before he could finish, he felt a very dangerous aura behind him.

In an instant, Alfonso froze on the spot.

"No matter how you look at this, I am not doing anything, Lucy" Said Alfonso with a cracked voice.

"Alfonso, what are you doing to my sister!?"

"No, no, no, look at the situation, I am not doing anything!"

"Hey, Carmine! Get off!"

"Ah, so beautiful~"

"No good, she is not listening…"

*Crack*

*Crack*

Alfonso heard some disturbing sounds from behind, however, he was too scared to turn around.

"How come I feel more threaten now than when I was fighting with Amadeus!?" Though Alfonso.

[Host, now that you complete your mission, the system will open a portal back to Leitol]

[Time remaining: 5:00 ]

"I will be able to go home in five minutes…" Though Alfonso.

He felt heaviness leaving his body.

He could finally relax.

"Hoho, I saw something interesting for the first time in 2000 years"

However, a voice that sounded almost divine, interrupted Alfonso's thoughts.
