Zach slowly continued reaching for a bottle. Expressionlessly, he grabbed one and picked it up. He held it in front of his face.
It was completely empty.
The crashing sound when he threw the bottle to the ground, shattering it, startled the others. They turned to look at Zach in irritation and confusion. Was this the time to be clumsy and drop one of their precious X0 bottles, the strongest anti-underworld energy potion they had on hand?
Before they could even ask what was going on, Zach grabbed another, smashing that one as well. He was kneeling next to the crate, picking up and smashing down bottle after empty bottle.
Although the others were concerned about Zach's behavior, by now, they noticed that out of all the bottles, not a single one contained so much as a drop of anti-underworld energy.
"H-hey—"
"How could this happen?!" Zach's voice rang out over the field. It caused several underworlders in the city to tremble in fear.
