[Few minutes before the Trolls' attack…]
[43TH FLOOR]
A brown-haired man in a brownish classy suit took out a sphere out of the void and injected his mana.
["Conrad."] From the sphere ca out a stern voice.
"Milord. I have recovered Simon," Conrad, the brown-haired said and glanced at Simon who was tied on the ground. His arms and legs were tied and he seed unconscious.
["This is not what I have been waiting for Conrad."] The voice replied curtly.
Conrad smiled at that. "I know, Milord. Reinhart Eginfer is on the upper floors but we need to get rid of the caras first. So troubleso individuals are watching over this little children's play that they call 'exam'."
["I want Reinhart Eginfer dead."]
"Understood, Milord. I already sent Caishen to kill him. It will not take long. They will not fail this ti. They are against children."
["No. I do not trust them. They failed years ago and they are underestimating Zeus. I want you to confirm his death, Conrad."]
"As you wish, Milord." Conrad nodded and before the voice could vanish, Conrad spoke again. "Milord. There seems to be a botherso guest on the floors."
["..."]
Confirming that the voice was listening, Conrad spoke. "The Iris Project is involved. Their aim is still unknown. I had gotten rid of one of their 'specins' and left another willingly alive. He could be useful."
[I don't care what Kenos Arvatra has in mind. Ignore them. Kill them if they are a hindrance to us…but get rid of the Zeus' holder. He must die this ti.] The words were laced with contempt.
"It's noted, Milord." Conrad chuckled and before the call was cut, Conrad quickly asked a question that was in his mind. "What are you going to do, Milord?"
["..."]
There was silence and eventually…
["Edward Falkrona."]
The call ended like that.
"Interesting…" Conrad's smile widened and took out another sphere.
["Y-Yes!"] A shivering voice answered.
"Nico, was that your na?"
[Y-Yes…pl-please my f-family-"]
"Disable all the caras from the fortieth to the fiftieth floor," Conrad ignored Nico's pleas and ordered him.
["E-Eh?! N-No! They will find out it was m-!"] Nica blurted out in panic but-
"Do it Nico." Conrad said without changing his expression. "Do it if you want to see your family again."
Cutting off the call, Conrad glanced at Simon. "It's all for the good. It's all for Ante-Eden. Nephew."

"Huh…" I blinked several tis as I stared at the displayed screen in front of .

"I think there is a bug in the system, Jarvis," I muttered while walking.
[A bug?]
"Yeah, look. The only thing that has increased is my charm," I said confused.
[There is no bug. It just ans that you didn't beco strong enough to raise them.]
"I trained a lot though?"
And I got a new sword for God's sake.
[Not enough.]
"I will die if I train even more," I replied.
[Then don't train more.]
We are back to square one?!
Will that be sufficient for what is going to happen?
I don't know.
Strange.
I'm risking my life right now but I'm sure that on Earth, I wouldn't even have risked my life for others. I know that for the happy ending Jayden, Milleia and a maximum of Heroines need to be alive but was that enough of a reason?
I honestly can't answer this question.
But right now, I know that I had to prevent the upcoming disaster. Jayden won't be able to face all the enemies alone. This isn't the ga and so things might have changed because of my existence.
Though there are not only bad things.
I got a relic of Eden and could even wield it but sothing was strange.
I summoned the sword again and clenched the handle.
As expected, it wasn't even a hallucination or a temporary problem.
I couldn't use Mary's mirror ability or even the Anathemas Fire. I couldn't even sense such abilities inside while wielding this sword. What was amazing was that despite that I felt a feeling of omnipotence just by touching this sword.
"Trinity Nihil."
…was the na of the sword created by Eden.
Eden was the supre deity but it didn't an that he created everyone including the Gods. Eden was said to be the first deity and after him were born other Gods inadvertently from Eden. The first one was the First Archangel Raphiel also called 'Lady Eden'. She is often considered as Eden's wife but in other texts she is said to be his daughter.
After them were born the guardians who were three.
Lun, Nihil and Nox.
Following them were the Archangels and Knights protecting Eden with Michael being one of them.
That is exactly why Jayden is soone essential in all the Gas. He is the Apostle of Lun and is supposed to end up with Milleia who has Raphiel's bloodline. They are linked by Eden himself. He should even end up with Maria who was the saintess of the Holy Garden of Eden. With the two of them, he will honestly beco a monster. Let's not even speak about Zeus which is his Legacy but outside that he is really close to Eden in 'kinship' . The sa could be said for the Protagonists of the Second and Third Gas who are similar freaks as Jayden.
Anyway from what I know Eden offered all his protectors a 'Gift' from him and Trinity Nihil is the sword offered to none other than the Guardian Nihil himself.
But why am I able to wield such a weapon?
I knew the Falkrona bloodline was strong but didn't think that it was that much. Is the Falkrona Bloodline sohow linked to Nihil?
Honestly it wouldn't even surprise as my dear cousins reached heights and control over the Falkrona Bloodline that I would never reach. They also had a lot more things than . Elona might reach their level with the Falkrona Bloodline but for it was impossible. My body was literally rejecting that bloodline of mine.
The only thing bothering in all of that was the fact that the shitty God we are worshiping in my family doesn't seem that holy to have any close connection with Nihil or even Eden.
[You are antagonizing more and more Gods with each passing day.]
I shrugged at Jarvis. "Do you think I will be able to live without having to escape them?"
[Never.]
Instant answer.
I was a little surprised and also scared.
"Then are you going to tell what you are hiding for seven months?"
[...]
I snorted when there was no reply.
[I will tell you Edward.]
"Huh?"
[But end this 'Event' first.]
I gulped slightly hearing that.
He was really going to tell what he had been hiding?
Sothing about Ephera?
"You won't go back to your words huh."
[I have just the feeling that I have to say it.]
"What? You don't need your master's approval?" I asked puzzled.
By "master", I was obviously speaking about the sa man who sent in this world and in this body. The one who said to that Ephera was in this world.
[He doesn't know. To tell the truth, I lost 'connection' with him two days ago.]
Huh?
"So you can't receive instructions or ssages from him anymore?"
[Yes.]
Hm…
I don't know what to think about that.
I don't have an ounce of trust in that guy since I was convinced that he was using for sothing but…
"Should I feel happy or not at this news…?"
[...]
I don't like this at all.
"Yeah. Actually don't answer," I said and put back Trinity Nihil.
I should hurry up…
I would have felt reassured with Cleenah's presence with but she still didn't seem to have recovered.
Dammit…
I can only bla myself for that.
"Falkrona Bloodline, Second Wing." I muttered, enhancing my speed and kicked off the ground to reach the next floor.
Aurora's group and Jayden's group don't seem to be on this floor and it was what I expected. They are without a doubt on the upper floors. I'm afraid that I'm already late but Aurora, Jayden, Milleia and John are there. They are strong enough to contend with them for a few minutes.
Again why am I speaking like I could do sothing against them?
Well, my help it's better than nothing.
Not like I-
"!"
I jumped backward in a hurry.
"F-Falkrona Bloodline, First Wing!"
All my thoughts accelerated and my Second Wing was still active.
"W-Who?!" I asked with narrowed eyes.
That monstrous aura. I didn't even notice him.
What the hell?
"Impressive."
Clapping sounds echoed right behind and accompanying that was a neutral voice. Too much neutral.
I turned around, "W-Who are you-!" And froze.
"Brandon Delavoic," he uttered simply.
