"It may not be easy..."



"But we'll have to look for a way to make him totally despair"




Stacy made up her mind with an uneasy heart.




"Alright. We'll have to come up with something..."



Frazx somberly nodded as he spoke with his hand on his chin.



"Yes. If the three of us can put our heads together, we could definitely come up with something."



"Why don't we just make that two heads? I believe it is past time for me to retire."



"Ano?"



When Danzel announce his leaving, both Stacy and Frazx looked up in shock.



"Saan ka pupunta? We've been discussing this together the whole time."




"Just because I talk the talk doesn't mean I walk the walk"



"Hindi ka man lang sumasang-ayon sa akin, hindi ba? I don't see why I have to be in on this."


Danzel put his palms up and shrugged as he said so.



"B... but..."


"you could at least stick with us until the end. You've been with us for this far!"


"Minsan, mas maagang dumarating ang paalam kaysa sa inaakala mo. Peace. Hang in there."


"I'll send you my thoughts and prayers, it's the least I can do"


"Danzel!"


Stacy followed after him, but he was already long gone.


Ano kayang iniisip niya...?



When Stacy returned empty handed, Frazx looked at her as if it was inevitable.


"Well, it looks like it's just us. We'll just have to do our best."


"Haaa... Yes"


"We have to... come up with a plan"



Danzel, you rat bastard, we'll see who has the last laugh...



Down to just the two of them again, they began thinking.



"Even if we were to put him to despair without killing him, we should probably incapacitate him no matter what. How can we do so?"



"From what I've seen so far, his movement and his decision-making both far exceed those of a normal person. Even you, who've been through elite training, couldn't fare well against him."



".... Is that so...?"



If there was anything Frazx was proud of, it was his physical abilities. He was somewhat shocked to hear that he couldn't brute force his way against the murderer.


"The way I see it, the murderer received some kind of power or something from that demon or whatever."


"That means we probably can't outmuscle him."


"Probably not. So, a frontal assault will prove difficult."


"We'll have to exploit a weakness"
