Episode 54: The Desperate Escape
As flames engulfed the temple, Venus and his crew rescued a baby caught in the ritual. Unfortunately, the baby was already dead, a victim of the sacrificial rites. They fled through the smoke and chaos, using a torch to ignite the temple and create a diversion.
Amidst the confusion, Venus heard a voice from the god of fog, Erebus. "Venus, I have a contract for you. Make peace with me and your father, and I will grant you my powers."
Venus, confused, asked about his father. Erebus mentioned a name he couldn't quite make out—Zarazentos. Despite the confusion, Venus agreed to make peace if it meant gaining power. Erebus granted him the power of the Black Mist and a ring that allowed him to poison his enemies. However, Venus decided to give the ring to Kira, recognizing that it might be more useful to him.
