༺ Seal (2) ༻

Dowd Campbell getting hurt wasn't an uncommon sight for Eleanor.

It was only natural, considering that she had faced several life-threatening situations not long after meeting this man.

But, even if that was the case...

His current state was...

"...Dowd?"

It took some time for her to take in and accept the situation.

Her sound mind couldn't quite discern the exact identity of the 'lump of flesh' in front of her.

"...Do...wd?"

A voice of disbelief trickled out of her lips.

Her mind turned blank as her heart raced wildly.

"Apostle. Is this your doing?"

Across from her, such words reached her faint consciousness.

A voice filled with such chilling killing intent that made her skin crawl emanated from the masked woman.

It was as if she was angry about this man being in such a state.

"No. I did leave three Ancient God entities behind, but the likelihood of them inflicting such injuries is—"

"Nonexistent. Yes. I know that, but how could he end up like this?"

"..."

"Tatiana. I entrusted one single thing to you. Why can't you handle it properly?"

"...I apologize."

Hearing this conversation made Eleanor realize.

The reason why this man ended up like this was because he was entangled in the incident those bastards had caused.

-...

-...

–...!!!!

An insidious aura churned in her heart.

Everything around her slowed down. No, this wasn't merely her personal perception; Time actually slowed down.

This was a familiar sensation to her.

The entire world slowed with her at the center, and she felt like she had 'control' over all of space.

She inhaled heavily, spinning that aura fiercely.

Without a doubt, she vividly remembered using this energy before to 'turn back time'.

Of course...

There was a risk that everything nearby could be swept away if she did that.

She might even cause enormous damage to some important facilities in the foreign nation. With her status as one of the major nobles from the Empire, as a consideration, she might end up being publicly denounced by the entire continent.

"..."

But...

She didn't give a shit about any of that.

Even if other people died, and everyone around them got swept away...

As long as she could save this man...

Even if she had to bear all the consequences herself!

-Therefore, I implore.

At that moment, she heard a voice.

Holding onto her fleeting rationality, she turned her head and saw the man she had been watching intently since earlier; He was holding a ritual tool in his hand speaking such words.
