The figure continuing to draw closer and the pressure exertion of that figure now starting to have a big toll on their bodies they reluctantly asked the voice for help then they vanished out of sight, unknown to them the figure was not even aware that they were their it was just taking a stroll.

When they vanished a blinding light flashed before them prompting them to close their eyes, Vigor the first to bravely open his eyes gasped in astonishment as he encouraged the others to open their eyes. Upon opening their eyes they realized that they stood on a small platform surrounded by a void with an endless pit bellow them. The voice once again echoed Look behind you. They turned around and saw an old man who did not seem to have an aura of power and yet it seems their intuition was telling them that it was dangerous to attack.

The old man standing before them holding his cane asked them who he was going to save pointing out that he would only save three of them and one was to be thrown into the endless pit but he did also say that he would allow them to walk out of this place alone if they did not require his help. Gwej was adamant that they rather leave here together rather than leave one of them behind. The old man lifted an eyebrow and his red eye that always seemed closed, pierced through their steel like resolve, then turning around he told them that his offer was still valid until they got out of this place. Felix now had a grin on his face and a plan in his heart, he just decided to throw his short sword down as insurance.

To go to the top the group went through a spiral staircase that seemed to stretch endlessly. Without realizing it Felix was gradually eating away at everyone's power continuously weakening them and at the same time summoning something ahead. Luca realized that something was wrong but he brushed it off as the effects of a new environment taking a toll on him. Felix now walking ahead of everyone faked sensitivity, and warning everyone to be careful. When suddenly a goat demon attacked Felix the exact moment Luca looked forward, Luca jumping forward tried to intercept the demon but being gravely overpowered he was flunk to the side over the rail and he started to drop but in the last moment he noticed a grin that spread over Felix's face as Vigor and Gwej went over trying to help him but with no success. Then they heard the old man's voice in their heads saying that everything has been decided, then suddenly Gwej, Vigor and Felix found themselves back outside the demon territory back were Leo had taken them.

Meanwhile, Luca falling tried to hold to the railing on the side, but it seems as if the railing was smooth, and he could not secure a hold. Out of desperation he even unleashed his aura in hopes of stopping whilst in the air, but suddenly he felt a pressure that made his heart vigorously thump as it intensified his fall. Luca realized that the more he struggles, the stronger the pull down, he loosened his muscles, and it seems that all the momentum built up from the fall drastically decreased and it was as if a feather was falling. The bottom now seemed to be coming into sight. Luca lost consciousness as he hit the ground.
