Bernie said coldly:
"If we don't use it now, we will die. If we are defeated, this artifact will fall into the enemy's hands. I believe that even the Leader of Gainey would agree with my decision."
The other two Children of Nightmare remained silent, or perhaps it was just that Gould had never responded.
Seeing that his companions had no objections, Bernie took a deep breath and said:
"In that case, we might as well retreat for now. I'll go activate the artifact!"
Isaiah responded:
"I shall also retreat."
After waiting for a while without a response from Gould, the two Children of Nightmare attempted to communicate with him only to find that his breath was extremely unstable, almost as if on the verge of collapse.
Meanwhile, on the battlefield, Gould's Nightmare Legion became somewhat restive.
The two Children of Nightmare exchanged glances and were about to say something when suddenly Gould's Nightmare Legion began to retreat without warning.
