Hate… Despair… Anger… Pain
It echoed constantly in Max's head, causing him to fall off the edge.
As he fell deeper into the abyss, the seed Cain had planted in him since he laid eyes on him for the first time blossomed, turning into a great tree with only one purpose.
Driving Max insane.
"Eaaah!!!" Max let out a bloodcurdling scream as the last vestiges of his consciousness were ravaged by the madness.
At the same time, maybe because of their connection, Kitsune was awakened and her Nine Pillar Hall was being corrupted at a rapid rate.
Clutching her head, she let out agonizing screams in tandem with Max.
Just as it seemed like everything was over though, there was a catch.
"Max!" a familiar voice was heard after which Max felt something grab hold of him and pull him from the depths of Despair.
Alas, this only stopped him from falling deeper into the abyss.
Max struggled to open his eyes only to find Cedric kneeling before him and Elena standing by his side.
