"Apart from continuing to obey us, you and your clan have no other way out."
The Key Changing delivered the verdict calmly.
The tall Winged Person clenched his fists, the knuckles gripping the heavy sword turning white.
His gaze carried deep pain, anger, helplessness, and unwillingness interwoven, silently watching the mechanical, emotionless expression of the Key Changing.
He knew that the other party was not threatening him, but merely stating a harsh reality.
On the other hand, the Hero listened to the words carried by the breeze, also pressing her lips together in unwillingness.
'...What should we do? She seems to be preparing for some ominous ritual. Should we try synchronizing again?'
'Idiot, trying again won't change the result.' The response of the Depraved Hero carried a touch of irritability:
'I'm also frustrated, but her new will is too immature. We cannot make an unready child rebel against her parents.'
'Such a thing... I understand.'
