Seems I was already chosen to be the first one sacrificed or whatever bullshit was about to happen, so as I was led up to the raised piece of stone with a massive white star painted across it, I turned back towards Bella.
She suddenly began to regret not going first upon seeing my comforting smile and struggled against the chains, begging to replace me.
But, as I turned to the demon lord, I just nodded, wanting to keep him here as long as possible.
"Your friends are here… but there's no way they'll be able to find this place-"
CRASH
Suddenly, the roof to the massive cavern we were in opened, scattering a ton of rocks that turned into shrapnel that crushed and cut some surrounding guards.
I, on the other hand, swiftly dodged the pieces that came near me, and Bella was the same, smiling as she saw our siblings, who looked a tad bit different, barreling through the roof.
