Mt. Penn, The Friction Between the Peak and Foot of the Mountain

Day 129 - 7:02 PM - Devil's Den, Gettysburg, Adams County, Pennsylvania, United States of America

"So, how will you two explain yourselves?"

A grim-sounding voice echoed inside the dimly lit main hall of the fortress.

The voice came from the seat that appeared to be a sinister-looking throne. Nevertheless, there was no one sitting on it. Instead, there was a towering blue flame floating over the throne. Despite just being an odd colored fire, however, it gave the strange feeling of being alive.

And in fact, it was.

In front of the throne, Aurex and Mellice were prostrating. Considering the mental and physical injuries they had, just this posture could already be counted as a painful punishment.

To the side, Eina was present as she showed the flames what happened using her crystal ball.

And to the question of that blue-colored flame, both Aurex and Mellice could not utter a single word.
