 Chapter <ⅩⅩⅣ>


By the time he regained consciousness and realized his eyelids were able to blink,

our man Tenmei Akiro saw nothing but overwhelming dark.

" Am I blind ?!" Our Tenmei Akiro uttered in grave apprehension as he struggled to turn on the lights, only to face a more obvious, more appalling truth.

He was strapped to a confined sitting !!

Arms bent back behind the metal structure of what seemed like the stiff backrest of a dingy school stadium folding seat; His wrists cuffed in wired bonds that cut deeper to his skin the more he nudged; and his ankles fixed tightly to the legs of the metal object Tenmei sat, further confirming it to be a four-legged metal stadium chair, not of the best among chair qualities according to the famous Chair Tier List, the CTL.

Tenmei writhed around and tried to rip the sharp binds apart with his Exia strength, only to feel his muscles numbing the moment he gathered force. Like a half-inflated balloon, his biceps felt the more effort he tried to muster and soon was exhausted by his own struggling, shocked in disbelief at his sudden diminished stamina.

He has never felt so weak in his life ever before.

" All..... is futile..... Number Three."

Tenmei Akiro immediately recognized the voice, the robotic stiff intonations of the speaker that loomed somewhere not far in the pitch darkness ahead of his incapable sight.

" ......Varis......"

The instant flashing of the returning lighting blinded Tenmei as his surroundings illuminated in a blasting white, only to reveal the tall lithe armored figure of none other than a former friend and ally,

Varis, the young mysterious homunculus woman.

As it seemed just from her looks, Tenmei was eighty percent sure she was no longer the same Varis he knew and interacted with before.

Seeing Varis here, now standing at the end of the pale white cell, a square restriction of less than two meters in length and width, Tenmei started to recall all that had happened the night before, that had led to this dire conclusive reunion.

" ...What made you turn, Varis ?" Tenmei asked, still wincing at the irritating white lights stinging his eyeballs

" This is not like you...! What happened to you......"
