"I won't be leaving Fluffy here with you. That's my final decision," Zeras said out loud, his voice giving no inch for reconsideration.
In the next instant, he didn't bother to look at the priest before he immediately headed for the exit, already planning to begin the mission right now.
But he couldn't help but halt in his step when he noticed he couldn't hear the sound of Fluffy's footsteps.
"Hmmm," Zeras turned his gaze backward, only to see Fluffy's back. The tiny thing was still staring at the green pool.
"Don't tell me it really wants to go for this?" Zeras thought to himself as he walked towards Fluffy.
He could see the cat's eyes were dead straight at the pool. It was the first time he had seen the cat stare so fixedly at something, with such resolute gaze and conviction.
"I can't believe it."
"You have decided to undergo the awakening, don't you?" Zeras said as he sat down before the pool, his eyes also staring fixedly at it.
