A faint light emitted from the giant LED monitor in the middle of the spacious room. A man gazed intensely at the news displayed on the screen, His face obscured by darkness. The glimmer of his ruby-red eyes, filled with emotions and guilt, illuminated the shades as if reflecting the blazing fire within his heart. The news broadcasted by the monitor seemed to promise an extraordinary truth.
"Breaking News! A church in the mountainous region of Mexico is believed to have been attacked by a group of terrorists! An explosion has devastated the church and the surrounding village."
Zeref let out a heavy sigh upon hearing what he was listening to.
On the other side, the newcomer stood casually, leaning against a door, beneath which lay a long and black bag. He seemed to be waiting for the man to turn around. Casually, he took out an apple from his pocket and began to eat it.
