Reeva stood in front of one of the entrances to the underground cult hideout. It appeared to be an ordinary office building with no employees, yet it was well-maintained and regularly used by the cult.
Beside Reeva were his crew, Hilda, Theia, Leon, and one extra mercenary. Leon was acting as their guide, leading them into the depths of the cult's lair.
The previous day, Leon had contacted Landlong, asking for permission to use the picture to convert Theia and Hilda to their side. Of course, Reeva had no intention of letting that happen since he didn't have the power to save them from the void entity. Instead, the plan was for Reeva or Leon to jump in before they were converted and use his mystic power to overload the painting, shattering it into pieces.
Hopefully, the plan will work. They also had a mercenary following them discreetly, acting as a backup signal. If anything went wrong, the mercenary would go an signal the rest of the group to invade the place.
