The moment Noah beheaded Petrick,
Somewhere away from Novaris Academy,
In the same city of Novaris, inside a room in a small hotel, a man lay on a single bed. The curtains were closed, and the lights were off.
The man lay motionless.
His fingers twitched. His eyelids trembled as he slowly opened his eyes. His black eyes stared lazily at the ceiling.
The man pushed himself upright. His dark brown hair was messy, and sweat slowly dripped from his forehead. He appeared to be in his late thirties.
His right hand moved to his neck, slowly running over it.
"I can still feel that pain in my neck."
He placed his feet on the floor while sitting at the edge of the bed and stretched his body.
"Damien... that boy was really something else. I need to inform Malv— I mean, Boss... I should show some respect to that old man. Hehe~"
He chuckled before muttering again.
