The Author's POV
Chapter 360
"Hey Ren, hold up."
Waylan's frustrated voice rang throughout the long and narrow corridor of the Inferno headquarters.
Usually, there would've been many duergars present patrolling the area, but now, it was completely deserted.
They were either fighting against the large army outside or most likely gathering towards the spot Ren and the others were previously in.
The enormous commotion they had caused definitely did not go unnoticed by them as they most likely sent reinforcements.
"Ren, I still haven't recovered from my injuries."
Frustratingly said Waylan as he hurried his pace.
Following from behind him was Angelica. Unlike him, she still seemed fine. Having recovered some of her demonic energy from Ren, she was in a much better shape than Waylan.
"We don't need to be in optimal condition for this part of the plan. Our roles are already over. All we have to do is show up in the locatio—"
Ren coldly muttered before picking up his pace.
But just as he walked a couple of steps further, his legs buckled slightly and he stumbled slightly.

"Ukhhh..."
Holding onto the side of the wall, the effects of Monarch's indifference quickly wore off.
In order to cope with the throbbing pain that was coursing through my head, I had activated Monarch's indifference. Now that the pain was over, Monarch's indifference naturally wore off.
Instantly, my head cooled a little.
"Haaaaa..."
"Ren?"
Turning my head, and staring at Waylan whose complexion seemed too pale for his own good, I massaged my forehead.
"Ugh, I'm fine, I'm fine."
"Has your head cooled down a little?"
"Yeah...." I replied, taking a deep breath.
Even though Angelica had warned me beforehand about the side effects of signing a contract with her, I didn't know they would be this severe.
Not only did it feel as though my head was being split into two, but even under the effects of Monarch's indifference, I could barely stop myself from formulating dark thoughts.
"I'm glad you're feeling better," Waylan replied in relief.
"Me too,"
I replied back.
Had I continued to roam in that state, I wasn't sure how things would've gone. Perpahs, everything would've crumbled.
Glancing around the corridor, Waylan suddenly asked.
"You've already warned Douglas, right? Should we proceed with the last step of the plan?"
"Yeah, they should already be done taking down the surveillance system."
Still supporting my body with the side of the wall, I slid down on the ground to recover some energy.
Before taking out the communication device from my dimensional space, I looked at Waylan and bitterly smile.
"He's not going to kill us after everything is done, right?"
Scratching the back of his head, Waylan wrily smiled.
"That, I don't know. He'll probably be pretty pissed..."
"Ugh.."
Letting out a groan and taking out my communication device from my dimensional, I quickly got in contact with the other group.
The one with Gervis and the others were in.
