"Haha…"
Ciel couldn't help but laugh as she stared at the tome—which was disintegrating right in front of her eyes.
"It's happening."
The tome that had given her—and Jin—access to his system.
Brandon Locke's system.
She had fully manipulated the boy to a full blown extent.
From giving him the idea of becoming a ranker, to him being forced to explore the forest.
And the final piece of the puzzle that wove the events together.
The man known as Lucas.
Regardless of who was in control of the body, it was a tragic event that was set in stone.
Just that, the schedule was pushed forward for the current progression.
Belle Locke's death.
And now things were about to become more interesting.
Just how would her death affect the current Brandon Locke?
They had to break him.
Break his will.
Break his system.
"And in the end, he will consume him."
We will consume him.
