[Glave's Point of View]

...

Kekekeke! I won the final quarrel. At last, I could finally reunite with Ara. Deep, deep inside, however, I felt a small twinge of guilt for what had happened to the Yama Raja. I managed to convince and deceive myself; it was none of my concern, none of my business anymore. All that mattered to me was my darling.

By using my ability, I leaped through a crack that emerged from nowhere, leading into Henir's Time and Space. I speculated that Ara would be patiently waiting there for my return. I was excited, to embrace her tightly in my arms, I planned to never let go, ever. There were many things I wanted to converse with her, especially how much I missed her stunning, dazzling disposition that I fell in love with countless times.

When I arrived, I saw her a few feet in front of me, with her back faced. Eagerly, I floated over to her on my Nasod dynamos. I was utterly thrilled to speak to her again. Right when I was about to sneak a hug from behind, a dark aura suddenly surrounded her. I flinched, stopping in the rear.

"Ara!" I called out.

She immediately adjusted her position to face me, her expression shriveled with complete fear, and nothing more. "A-Add..."

"What happened?!"

"I don't know... Luto said you would be coming soon, so I was waiting. A-And then this... ah!" she winced. "I-It hurts. I don't know if you can help or n-not..." she stuttered.

Without thinking, I embraced her from behind, hoping to provide her with at least a bit of comfort.

"Dammit, Luto! What about that deal we had, if I was the victor of the duel?! F***ing bastard! Sh*tbag! Disgusting piece of filth! Explain this, you crappy administrator!" I wrathfully cursed, rage filled inside swiftly.

"Watch your language, Add." He was nothing but a mere voice for the moment, as usual. "You see, I have taken a liking to that name better than 'Glave', therefore you shall be referred to your original alias. Haha, now on to the explanation! Fool! I only stated that all her memories would remain, and that she wouldn't cease to exist. That doesn't mean that I can't take her away from you!"

And right before my eyes, Ara was gone. Gone. Vanished and disappeared.

"Screw you!" I cried out. "I'll... I'll wreck you into smithereens!"

"Oh? I'm afraid that is not possible. Keep dreaming, child. I shall wish you luck in finding her. Perhaps after all these labours I've put you in, I'll let you stay with her forever, happily, the next time." he proposed.

"Tch! Damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you!" Madness consumed me. I was absolutely pissed off.
