Gravis and Mortis weren't exactly sure how they should feel about Orpheus' presence here.

The reason why they had stopped having contact with him was due to all his lies back then. They could understand Orpheus' reasons for telling those lies, but his methodical approach of trying to keep up their relationship destroyed the purity of a familial bond.

Mortis had a cold disposition towards Orpheus due to his demeanor that valued honesty above nearly everything else.

Gravis had been uncertain, and he wanted to have some more time to make a decision.

But now, Orpheus had returned. Even more, according to what Orthar said, Orpheus was responsible for dealing with nearly 50% of Gravis' debt.

On top of that, Orpheus had probably helped the Myriad Sect to get through the past 15,000 years of warfare.

Lastly, Orpheus had saved Gravis' and Mortis' lives right now.

It was becoming incredibly hard for Gravis to dislike Orpheus right now.

Orpheus looked at Gravis and Mortis for a second, and when he saw their conflicted expressions, a conflicted expression appeared on his own face.

He felt guilty for using these situations to knowingly increase his image in their minds. However, he also felt good that they didn't treat him with cold looks.

He wasn't approaching Gravis and Mortis with pure, brotherly feelings but with a methodical approach to make them value him.

That was why it felt so conflicting to everyone involved.

It felt like dishonest love, but it was love, nonetheless.

"You are their brother?" Eve asked with narrowed eyes. "I didn't know that the two of them had such an amazing background. I thought they were simply some Ascenders."

Orpheus laughed loudly. "You think I'm amazing? You have no idea! You should see our father," Orpheus shouted.

"And who might that be?" Eve asked with a neutral voice. However, deep inside, she was feeling nervous.

She had thought that her higher-ups had simply spied upon her back then, and she hadn't thought that Mortis' background was actually something to write home about. But now, it turned out that they actually had a pretty powerful brother.

And that brother was now talking about their father?

Eve wanted revenge, but her life was still more important than revenge.

"You don't have to worry," Orpheus said with a smirk. "Our father won't get involved, even if you kill all three of us. In his mind, if we can't overcome such a minor obstacle as you, we would only prove our own weakness."

"Minor obstacle?" Eve repeated coldly. Then, she huffed in disdain. "Very well then. You could have simply survived by threatening me with your background, but who would have expected that you wanted to die this badly?"

"Fine," Eve said as she took out two long and thin swords. "I'll grant you your wish."
