activa-t Chapter 221: Farewell
Chapter 221: Farewell
Rin and Erix spent two hours before going to the city in disguise, wearing random armor sets they got from one of the many they killed.
With their faces also covered, the bounty hunters wouldn't recognize them.
'Don't you think there are more people than before? Especially the Royal-order hunters.'
'Yeah, it's as Lilith said.'
Rin and Erix communicated spiritually while roaming the city, eating occasionally, and checking out various stores and things.
They didn't stay in the city for long and returned after two hours.
Sitting before Lilith, the duo also joined to inspect the Eyeball sealed in the box. This was the only thing interesting at the moment.
Moreover, Lilith had indeed made progress.
She unsealed the box except for a thin layer of threads on it and said, "Come out."
Rin and Erix were surprised upon hearing Lilith and soon saw a dark grey smoke oozing as it took a form—a dark gray, misty mouth with black teeth.
"Free me!"
A jarring and crackling voice penetrated their heads and directly rang the trio's minds, startling Erix and Rin.
The mouth turned to Lilith and growled, "Free me!"
"Answer me first," Lilith spoke, "what are you?"
Rin and Erix gulped. They were feeling creeps from the aura of this mouth.
"I am Fallen Hex."
"What's that?"
"I don't know."
Lilith raised her eyebrows.
"Wait, what about the other body parts?" Rin questioned. "This box only has an Eyeball, right?"
"Yeah," Erix nodded, similarly curious.
"I think it really doesn't know anything," Lilith said, "The Eyeball has powers, an even more higher realm of powers than what I have, but it's working based on survival instructions."
Lilith slapped the mouth and said, "You were trying to spread your aura so that someone could find you, and that was why you gradually developed that thin two-kilometer-long branch over the years and then created that strange tree so that others could find you."

"Am I right?"
"I don't know. Free me!"
"What do you mean come and leave?" Erix asked in confusion.
"Umm, we will be leaving soon...like forever," Klelia hesitantly said, her words causing Rin and Erix to be slightly taken aback.
"Forever? You decided to leave?" Rin asked with one eyebrow raised.
"Yes," Lyra said with a sharp and determined expression, her fixed eyes on Erix. "Before we leave, we want to spend some time with you."
"We've recovered half at least, so..." Klelia bit her lips.
Erix felt slightly strange while Rin's womanly instincts were telling her a different story when she looked into their eyes and expressions.
'Erix, I feel like we really might not meet them again yet...I see a strong desire for you in them.'
Rin glanced at Erix. 'They are likely going to do something reckless.'
Rin deduced their motivation!
Erix understood that their decision had something to do with what he said, but that was none of his concern except that he felt slightly compelled to do something.
"Alright," Erix smiled. "Come with me."
Lyra's and Klelia's eyes instantly shone.
"I'll go ahead," Rin chuckled as it rang melodiously, "You should give them a passionate farewell."
Erix kissed her and nodded with a smile, "Alright, see you soon."
After Rin left, Erix smiled at the duo and grabbed their waists before pulling them towards him, "Enemies are coming in two hours-"
"We won't even take an hour," Klelia said, her long bunny ears perked up straight and her eyes serious.
...
An hour later, Erix stood amazed as he looked at a strange-dimension door that Lyra opened using an eccentric ball.
"This..."
Lyra looked at Erix with burning resolve and ambition, "We will make you look at us as your equal and make you fall for us with your whole so that you will never feel forced again."
Erix was startled. 'Forced?...maybe, she is right...'
"We don't know how long it will take, but we will return," Klelia said, her expression no less intense than Lyra's. "We will make you want us, Erix."
"I have strange confidence that awakened thanks to you," Lyra grinned. "We will carve our path towards you, but we don't want to see you behind at that time."
Erix pulled her in and gave her a passionate kiss.
"You will not see me behind, I will make sure of that," Erix laughed and pulled in Klelia next before hugging both of them.
"And I will not stop...but you must make sure to return to my arms."
