...
As Lilith finds herself ensnared in the threads, the mocking laughter comes to an abrupt halt. A silhouette of a teenager, adorned with angel wings, emerges from the shadows. Lilith, recognizing the figure, scoffs, "Huh? You!? You piece of shit again?!"
The teenager, amused, retorts, "Woah, easy there, calling me a piece of shit when I'm just introducing myself. Oh my, isn't this the embodiment of the sin of lust, Lilith!"
Filled with anger and irritation, Lilith grits her teeth and spits out, "Eros!"
Eros, unfazed by Lilith's hostility, simply laughs, reveling in the tension of the encounter.
...
Eros greets Lilith with a seemingly casual, "Hi Lilith, it's nice to see you again after that boring war." Lilith retorts, "Oh yeah, boring. It's boring to you since you didn't even do a thing!" Eros, momentarily offended by his own jest, tightens the threads of string.
Lilith, on the verge of being cut by the strings, channels a potent aura. Smoke emanates from the aura, causing the strings to slowly melt. With a burst of strength, Lilith breaks free from the entanglement. Eros, frustrated, exclaims, "Tsk! What did you do? You destroyed my masterpiece!"
Undeterred, Eros charges at Lilith, but she skillfully and precisely blocks the attack, showcasing her prowess in the face of the god of love's onslaught.
As Lilith successfully blocks Eros's attack, he steps back and commands the Cyclops to resume its assault. Lilith, puzzled, thinks, "What, he's been commanding it from the start?" Eros laughs mockingly, "HAHAHA! Looks like you're clueless after all. But you better be focused if you don't want to die!"
The Cyclops, following Eros's command, hurls a massive blow at Lilith, sending her flying several meters. The scene then switches to Jin Hwa, who slowly opens his eyes to witness the Cyclops and a mysterious man standing nearby.
As Jin Hwa gains consciousness and rises, he notices Lilith on the ground and wonders, "What? Why's Lilith..." Eros interrupts, saying, "Nice! A 2v2 hahaha," and commands the Cyclops to attack Jin Hwa. Reacting instinctively, Jin Hwa dodges the incoming assault, activating his weapon and Famished Blade.
In a swift countermove, Jin Hwa attacks the Cyclops and employs the skill Slumber, causing time to slow down around the mythical creature. However, to his surprise, the skill has no effect on Eros. Eros smirks and declares, "Ah. Ah. Not a chance!" The slowed time for the Cyclops doesn't hinder Eros, who remains unaffected and cancels Jin Hwa's attack on the Cyclops.
