A dull noise echoed in the hall along with the black smoke.

Boom! Boom!

The two people’s bodies slammed into the wall.

“Ugh! Why did you suddenly use your wind, w, what the…?!”

Cotton groaned at the sudden impact and her eyes opened wide as she tried to look at Cale.

Her eyes were focused on the black smoke on top of the platform.

The black smoke was spreading thick and quickly, looking as if it could fill the whole area in an instant.

“Damn it.”

As for the other person who also crashed into the wall… Cale glared at Gersey who was on the other side of the black door.

“I was almost tricked.”

He then looked back at the black smoke.

This black smoke must have been the way to provide the feed to the monsters.

“It can't get out of the platform.”

The black smoke only roamed around the platform and did not flow out of it.

Cotton walked up to the platform and tapped on the air.

Tang tang.

“It looks like there is a transparent barrier separating the platform and the area underneath the platform once the black smoke came out.”

She roamed around the platform and nodded her head.

“I guess it needs to be like this so that Gersey can provide the feed and then he and his subordinates could safely get out.”

“But doesn’t it seem like it would be impossible to steal the sculptures like this?”

Cale got up and headed next to Cotton. He was now underneath the platform.

Gersey who was outside the black door could not see him.

However, Gersey clicked his tongue as if he could see what was going on. He had more blood flowing out from his mouth than Eruhaben did.

“How disappointing. I guess I have no choice but to overdo it a bit.”

“Hehehe.”

He turned his head after hearing someone laugh.

Bud was laughing.

“Are you sad that you failed to give the feed to them?”

The corners of Gersey’s lips started to go up.

“But thanks to that, you are unable to steal nor destroy the sculptures.”

“…What do you mean?”

Bud who didn't know about the black smoke and the transparent barrier started to frown while Gersey laughed and turned around.

“Ah, you're here, your majesty?”

Eruhaben’s eyes started to sink.

The White Star was walking over in the distance.

He spoke to Bud in his mind while Gersey greeted the White Star.

This is bad. Looks like we need to escape.

Bud silently nodded his head.

He heard the White Star's voice at that moment.

“It’s so noisy starting the first day of the festival.”

Eruhaben retorted back.

“It’s only loud because you are making it that way, isn’t it?”

“Hahaha, is that so? Well, it looks like I need to get rid of you first before Cale Henituse can steal those things.”

Chhhhhhhhhh-

A red sword shot out from the White Star’s hand.

“I will destroy the wall, your majesty.”

Gersey grabbed his fan and charged toward the gold wall.

Tatap!

He lightly kicked off the ground, jumped up into the air, and struck down with the hand holding the fan.

The fan touched the gold wall.

It was at that moment.

Baaaaaaaaaang-!

The fan started to shake.

“Ugh!”

Gersey stumbled as he landed on the ground.
