'A pearl?' Matthew, who was just a few meters away from the point where Susan and the woman merged, thought in amazement.
'Those two just... merged... in one single thing. That's the first time I witness such a thing.'
"Matthew, what do we do now!?" Ryan asked, taking him out of his daze.
"What...?" Matthew lasted a few seconds to absorb what he said. Then, he moved his eyes towards the floating pearl again.
"We need to..."
"... Get that thing!" the Mother's voice echoed in unison with Matthew's. Both were pointing at the light blue pearl.
The entire battlefield seemed paralyzed for a second upon hearing the voices of both of them.
Before they knew it, their legs were moving towards the new goal. Both ambassadors and members of the Grand Crusade ran with all their might towards the azure pearl that was now shining stronger than the blue sky of the era pre-Crimson Apocalypse.
The ground seemed to shake under the pressure of so many feet stomping it ferociously.
