I appeared within the region of space I'd left Leo and the others in, my eyes taking in the situation before me.
Leo, as instructed, had done his job beautifully. The entire line-up of Calderans was currently on their knees, their hands cupped, their eyes bleeding. The chicken-cat hovered high above like some ominous creature of torture, his body radiating that awe-inspiring golden aura of his, yet his dead eyes were locked unflinchingly onto the thousands of Calderans gathered below him.
I could feel their life essence being drained and absorbed by the chicken-cat, turning into pure despair and sorrow, Leo's aura deepening with every siphoned feeling.
"Looks like he's having fun." I shook my head, unwilling to interrupt him.
"Master…" Shulvan's voice came from behind me, snapping me from my thoughts.
"What is it?" I asked.
"The audacious fool. His records can no longer be felt."
"And yet… you somehow still remember there was such a person."
