The Author's POV

Chapter 667

The void was enveloped in a chilly stillness.

I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy as I stared at the white orb that was in front of me and took in everything.

After seeing Everblood appear and Kevin get stabbed by the same dagger he used to 'kill' Malik Alshayatin, I felt an overwhelming urge to hurry over and give him a helping hand.

But...

Despite everything that was happening, I did not take any action.

My mind kept going back to the look Kevin had given me earlier; it wouldn't leave my thoughts, no matter how hard I tried.

I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but I had the distinct impression that he was staring right at me during that brief moment our eyes met.

Was it just me? ...or was he really looking at me? If so, how was it possible?

'It couldn't be that, right?'

When I caught a glimpse of the other version of myself on the edge of my field of vision, I immediately had an implausible thought cross my mind.

'No, it can't be.'

I quickly discarded the thought. Just the idea made my spine tingle.

There was no way Kevin was capable of making such a plan.

Simply no way.

"You seem rather calm, watching your friend die before your own eyes."

The sound of my own voice snapped me out of my thoughts, and I turned my head to look at my other self, whose gaze was still loitering all over the orb that was in front of us.

There was an unwavering serenity in his gaze as he watched Kevin's condition deteriorate before his eyes in a painfully slow manner.

I shook my head.

"What am I meant to do? You tell me. Kevin is currently too far away for me to reach, and I am unaware of his precise location. By the time I reach his location, he will likely already be dead, so what am I supposed to do?"

"Then why did you come here? ...Out of desperation to know whose responsible for his death?"

My lips pursed, and I didn't say anything else, my eyes turning back toward the giant white orb.

Everblood had his hand raised and was about to slash out at Kevin, whose body had become completely limp, and his eyes had lost all clarity at this very moment.

My fists clenched together when I saw Kevin's helpless figure.

Although I did have a plan for rescuing Kevin from the predicament, the image of his face kept playing over and over in my head. It dispelled all previous thoughts and forced me to continue watching the scene unfold.

'Damn it, I hope I'm not imagining things.'

My teeth clenched tightly.

"Everblood, abort!"

I was momentarily startled out of my thoughts by a sudden shout, and when I turned around, I was astounded to see the other version of myself staring at the orb with a solemn expression on his face.

"It's too late."

The void that the other me and I were in was suddenly shaken by a voice, and Kevin, who had been lifeless just a few seconds earlier, abruptly raised his hand and grabbed hold of Everblood's face with his hand.

A mysterious white haze erupted from his hand and engulfed every part of Everblood's body.

His crimson-red eyes shone with an intense crimson hue, and the void shook fiercely.

"What's going on?"

It felt as though I was in the epicenter of an earthquake as I stumbled a couple of steps while attempting to get a proper foothold.
