Embedded in Yebeni's chest was an oval black gemstone.
The gemstone was surrounded by a dense network of blood vessels, as if it had grown out of Yebeni's body.
He let out a sinister laugh, while an eye, akin to the Abyss, slowly opened within the gemstone.
"Suffer, you puppets controlled by rituals."
A beam of light shot out from the gemstone, and Roger was startled to find the Sword of the Sun in his hand sinking heavily, as if the weapon were being restrained.
Someone had actually taken measures against the restraints embedded in the minds of Heritage Knights!
Though it was just a moment of interference, it was enough time for Yebeni to release his spell.
"Mother always wanted to obtain a Heritage Knight's Inheritance Core, and this time it's just perfect!"
No sooner had his words fallen than the black gemstone on his chest cracked all over and then burst apart violently.
