Work on the Crystal King was still going on. Drilling, hammering and welding echoed throughout the underground.


Peacebreaker, who was overseeing the construction progress, sat in a black chair on a stand in the warehouse, watching the snakes running back and forth.


Meanwhile, she was reading a book, managing to drink five coffees and talk about everything with the ghost of (Y/N) next to her.


Workers passing by, looked strangely at their commander, who was fiercely carrying on a conversation with someone, who couldn't be seen.


- Well, and I tell you, that this is impossible! Even my power, it can't do that! Forget about it!


- Hey, come on! I want to eat...ice cream! Or not, croissant with coffee!


- You are a ghost to hell! You don't need food!


- But I'm hungry!


- Shut up!


- You shut the hell up!


Peacebreaker growled at the ghost and threw herself at him, causing them both to fall to the ground. Both of them began to fight...like little girls arguing over a toy on the playground.


- Just, because you're a ghost doesn't mean, I can't hit you!


- Leave me alone, you lizard!


One of the laborers passing by stopped in his steps and looked perplexed at the corruption rolling on the ground.


- What are you looking at!? - Peacebreaker and (Y/N) growled, interrupting the fight for a moment.


Serpentine groaned frightened and said uncertainly.


- Ms. Harumi summons you to the main chambers!- he said with a fearful salute.


Ghost and Corruption looked at each other, before grunting and get up from the ground.


- Thank you for the information... em...?


- This, Lin... ma'am.


- Thanks for the information, Lin. Get back to work.


Serpentine nodded and started walking to the warehouse. Peacebreaker and the ghost of (Y/N) looked at each other and hit each other on the shoulder.


Peacebreaker reached the auditorium, where there was a crowd of vengenstone warriors and orange Serpentine. She pushed through the crowd and approached Pythor and Aspheera, who were talking to Serpentine.


- What is going on here?- she asked confused.
