I thought I had prepared for every contingency.
I made sure everything went according to plan, and even made sure to manipulate several ends to achieve the results I desired. But…
... I didn't expect Legris Damien to still be alive.
Even though Magic made the impossible possible, I wasn't counting on it this time.
At his time of death, Legris couldn't use Magic. I made sure of that.
Though, with Jane's Soul Project being known to me, I realized that there were other ways he could have used to cheat death. Still, wouldn't that have required a soul?
I was sure that his soul died alongside his body.
It made no sense that he was currently standing behind me, smiling cheerily.
"Don't be a sore loser, Jared. You lost this round." His words pierced my heart.
Why?
Because he was right.
I didn't want to accept it, but the fact that he was standing right here—holding [The Devil] Arcana—meant my plan was already in shambles.
