It was a statement that sounded like a death knell for Alex and his group.
Fear's words struck deep into their heart and just looking at him brought up images that preyed upon the fear hidden within.
They all struggled to wrestle against the emotion but the longer it took, the worse it became.
At the moment, the group were all sitting ducks waiting to be culled.
But just as Fear moved to act, a prideful feeling enveloped Alex and company, drowning out the fear they felt while a drowsy voice echoed.
…Don't look at him directly!
Immediately freed from his fears, Alex didn't hesitate to drop his gaze to the alabaster floor.
At the same time, white fog appeared and helped protect Alex and his group from the clash between Devils.
Perspiration peppered Alex's forehead as he sought to calm his beating heart.
Even with Vessina's help, the remnants of fear left in his heart impacted him greatly.
