At midnight, Horn awoke from his coma.
His condition was far from good; the effects of the anesthesia that had seeped into his body from the knife wound on his back were yet to fade, and with his eyes bandaged, he had no choice but to rely on the vision assistance system of his intelligent terminal to see.
This was a result of using the "Time Black Holy Pupil" seven times in a row, which his body could hardly bear.
Horn barely managed to have the SSS+ augmentation fitted, and each use caused damage to both his soul and body.
Bearing the pain, he looked around and found himself in a newly established secret base run by their team, with several of his teammates gathered around him.
