'I can find nothing... absolutely nothing...'

Kael was starting to feel annoyed.

He had

'I smell rot. But not from the corpse, from the eon. This... is definitely not a nice eon...'

Kael liked to study other people's eon. Each one had a different feel to it and told a lot about the person.

And this was the first time he had come across an eon that evoked such... bad feelings.

"I found where Matthew went. There's a cave not far from here."

Without a second glance at Baroch's corpse, Amar turned back to the cave he had mentioned. He moved forward with his usual coldness.

Kael, though, looked at Baroch's corpse with an involuntary sadness on his face.

He had... liked Baroch. He was a good person. Talented too.

He certainly didn't deserve... to die like this.

But that was their world. Cruel, unfair, rotten...

There was nothing he could do.

So... after a short time, he turned back in front of himself.

Baroch might be dead. But they had to move on.

And they did... After a short time, they found the cave Amar had told them about.

Amar entered the cave without slowing his steps. Kael realized that the cave was filled with that rotten feeling eon and involuntarily grimaced.

It was certainly not something he could not bear. But if there was a way where he didn't have to endure it, he would definitely prefer it, even if it was dangerous.

"Kael, get ready. We are going to meet someone powerful."
