, however, the barrier was still not broken so he could not rest even for just a little. He could feel his mana being gradually drained, but he still had a lot so he didn't really worry.

How thick is this barrier?!

Xyn pushed harder and harder. He had a bad feeling about letting the barrier stand for a long time. Then shortly, the crack was getting wider and wider, and he felt that his claws had dug through the barrier a little. Still, Xyn was surprised by the barrier's thickness.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!"

He increased his strength and he could feel a slight pain on his hand. But it was nothing. Then shortly, he had finally breached over an inch on the barrier. He smiled, for Xyn thought he could now damage the barrier more efficiently especially with the help of his servants.

I'm almost there! When I come out of here, I'll kill whoever's behind this!

Suddenly, there was a change in the air. No, it was not the air itself, it felt like a magical energy. Xyn couldn't believe it for a second, the kind of vibe he felt was different, it was not how a casted magic was.

"Everyone hold on!!!"

All of a sudden, Xyn heard Criswell shout from behind so he immediately turned his head to look. Then immediately, Xyn's eyes widened in shock at the scene before him.

A black sphere appeared above the mansion and was pulling everything around it. It kind of reminded Xyn of a black hole. The mansion was slowly torn to pieces due to the sphere's gravitation pull. Then the servants were desperately holding onto the ground, poles, or anything they could hold into. The gravity must be too powerful to the point the guardians themselves were being dragged.

Xyn even though quite a distance away from the sphere could feel he was being pulled.

...No..

No question needed, that hole alone was already bad news. There was no telling what would happen if one could get dragged inside, however, it was certain to be something bad.

"Fera! Keep holding on!"

Mira shouted with all her might.

"I am!"

Fera moved her hand to get a better grip on the wall of the mansion. However, she was the closest to the black sphere. The wall where she was holding was pulled from the ground.

Then Fera flew upwards, being pulled into the black hole.

"Miraaaaaaaaa!"

"FEERRRAAAAA!!!!!"

Then the battle maid, Fera, was pulled into the black hole.

Xyn was left shocked, unable to speak. He felt his heart would break, and another feeling that he had felt before, it was the feeling of loss. Then, another feeling formed in his heart, it was fear.

"..F-Fera.." Xyn quietly said.

Then shortly after, the place where Aesyla was holding broke and was pulled towards the hole.

"AESYLA!!!"

Cleia screamed and extended her hand in hopes to reach her sister. However, she couldn't, their reach was only an inch off.

"Nooooooo!!" Aesyla cried as she was pulled into the hole.

..Aesyla..

Xyn whispered in his mind.

Then, Ambrosia was pulled into the hole.

"AAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"

Next was Brutus, then Mira, then Cleia, then Nisea, then Cardia, then Agiel and then Adrasteia. One by one, they were absorbed into the black hole.

..Everyone..

Xyn whispered in his mind.

Then next was Criswell.

Criswell..

The only ones left were Sagremor and Xelya. However, it seemed Sagremor won't last long, the ground behind him was already being broken apart being pulled into the hole. He had his sword plunged to the ground and held onto it, but if the ground broke, then it was already obvious what would happen.

Xelya was holding on to a pole meanwhile still holding her staff on one hand. She gave such importance to the gift of her creator to the point she would hold on to it to the very end.

Then the ground before Sagremor broke apart. Just like the others, he was pulled into the hole.

"DAAAAMMIIIITTT!!!" That was his last scream.

Then one servant was left.

"X.. Xelya!!!"

"L-lord –."

Then the ground beneath her broke.

"XELYA!!!"

Xelya was absorbed into the hole.

"..no.."

Xyn looked to the ground, feeling weak, and empty.

Everything he has was lost. Everything. It was not the material object, not the mansion, not the furniture, not the golds, not the treasures, those were nothing. The ones he cared about was his servants. They were all he had, they were his treasure. They were irreplaceable. They were his family.

He looked at the barrier.

Is there even a purpose of living anymore? Is there even a purpose left for me when I get through this? I've lost the ones I love, again.. There's no point anymore.

He could still break through the barrier. Even though the black sphere's gravity was getting stronger every second, he thought he could still try break to through the barrier, he was almost there after all.

But, if he got through, then what? He could kill the ones behind everything, but that wouldn't make things better nor return everything back to normal.

He may have created his servants, but they were living beings, a part of his family, he loves them. Xyn was not an asshole to just move on and create new servants.

In that case, if there was no purpose on surviving through this, then there was only one option left.

As they were family, then they were all in this together. If they got pulled into the sphere, then so must Xyn. If they suffer there, then so be it, Xyn will still follow. If they're going to die in there, then they and Xyn will die together.

Xyn gazed unto the barrier, then something became clearer on the other side. A man stood on the other side staring at Xyn.

Xyn knew who the person was. He had seen him before. The one with the golden hair and red eyes.

"Vincent.."

A raging flame slightly ignited within Xyn's heart on realizing who it was.

Then, Xyn disabled every magic he activated, thus he started being pulled. Meanwhile, he also disabled his Dark Incarnation, and let the black hole pull him into a place unknown.
