"Angelica?" Shun Yin gaped at her in disbelief. "What are you doing here?"
"Saving you, obviously."
Angelica snorted impatiently, but continued to keep her eyes on the snarling Cerberus. Her blade glowed white.
"You don't seem to be faring too well against the Dark Church's experiment. I don't blame you, though. It's a result of fusing a monster with a spirit."
She shrugged almost flippantly. Shun Yin continued to stare at her, still sunken in a stupor. Then her words struck something in him.
"Dark Church…?"
"A group of religious extremists who believe that humanity should be eradicated for the sake of the world. They believe the monsters are a sign of the end of the human race, saviors of a dying, heavily polluted Earth. They wish to speed up the process…hence their efforts to artificially trigger Emergence events."
