The atmosphere in the hall turned suffocating. The killing intent burning in Xavier's eyes looked ready to burst out, yet maybe the goblins were too engrossed in their disgusting act, because they still hadn't noticed the presence of the two human intruders at all.
The poor women, having seemingly lost all hope, simply stared into empty air even after seeing Xavier. For them, the appearance of Xavier and Aria was nothing more than another illusion their broken minds had created.
It wasn't the first time their minds had tried to give them false hope. But they knew better. This was another world—how could anyone come here to save them?
Just then, Xavier's gaze sharply moved upward, noticing a disturbance above.
For a moment, the air over the painted ceiling twisted and turned like a curtain of water, slowly parting as a figure materialized when the disturbance ceased.
Lich King Rokos.
