Her body suddenly became a blur and slowly drifted over.
She then merged into Aiwass, and Aiwass felt as if some chilling strength had filled his limbs and bones, a coldness not even the flames summoned by the Path of Devotion could dispel.
"...A promise then."
A childish, ethereal voice spoke up, "I will wait for you..."
At this point, Aiwass paused.
Why did these words sound... unlike a soul simulation created by the Pillar God?
It was almost as if it were the real Earthbound Spirit Alice herself...
"...Are you trying to help me complete the mission?"
Aiwass asked in return.
But the Earthbound Spirit Alice didn't respond again.
Instead, a strong suction suddenly emerged within Aiwass— he could feel his life force and mana rapidly draining away, as if flowing into the void.
Was this a trial? A price? Help? Or just a craving?
—Aiwass suddenly became somewhat curious about Alice.
He hadn't lied, for he did indeed plan to find Alice.
