One-Eyed Monster

The atmosphere in the cabin wasn't particularly oppressive, but everyone gradually fell silent.

Except for Kadi, everyone else was deep in thought. The brief silence made the cabin extraordinarily quiet, so quiet that Kadi was reluctant to interrupt it.

This silence was a kind of silent agreement, as everyone knew what lay ahead.

That unknown was both an enemy and a challenge.

The Kangen family was ready, and so was the Bistal group.

They had all been through an unprecedented conflict, where unfamiliar enemies suddenly launched an attack on them. There was no clear cause or consequence to this attack; these people appeared like flames, burning intensely and then disappearing before anyone's eyes, leaving nothing behind.

Every silence must eventually end; no one understood how all of this came to be, but everyone knew that staying silent wouldn't solve the problem.

Once a problem arises, it must be dealt with, no matter how difficult the solution is to find; it must be attempted. Exploration is endless; they need to step forward on the path of exploration, fearlessly facing difficulties.

It was Pete Kangen who broke the silence, the old family leader of the Kangen family. He had spoken a lot earlier, and the secret of immortality was finally laid bare before everyone, no longer holding its former mystery.

Pete Kangen quietly looked at everyone, sighed, and began his reflection: "The road is long, and now is just the beginning."

Will Kangen stepped forward and helped the old family leader up from the mat.

"The enemies we face will eventually show themselves, no matter how long they've been playing hide and seek with us. We'll find them in the end."

Coban Kangen clenched his fist; at this moment, he was not only a messenger of Bistal but also a member of the Kangen family.

"I'm already old, but I think we should be like Lord Popovich, choosing to trust these two youngsters, wouldn't you say?" Pete Kangen said to Will Kangen, indicating that he had already decided to assist Igor and Kadi.

"Your teachings are right, Uncle. We must always absorb the experiences of our predecessors!" Will Kangen nodded repeatedly.

"As for the Reaper, we really have nothing we can offer. The Reaper we knew is dead, and we have no idea who these people claiming to be the Reaper now are." Will Kangen added, which was the main reason Igor and the others came here; the Kangen family had not been hiding anything.

"The Kangen family will fully cooperate with you, providing all the support you deserve!"

The young family leader Will Kangen's statement was decisive and resounding. This meant that the entire Kangen family was now fully standing behind Igor and his group.

Igor felt the power behind him growing stronger, and the weight of the responsibility he felt grew heavier.

"Bistal will also be your strong support!" Coban Kangen quickly followed up, now truly expressing their stance.

No one could have imagined that Igor and Kadi would have to shoulder such an immense task.

"Your path of exploration will not be lonely. This blank paper has been spread out, and you have been running on it for a long time; compared to us, you are more familiar with the unknowns."

"We hope you pioneers can tell us what the enemy is really like; we can't always be kept in the dark."

The Kangen family's expectations for Igor and Kadi were the same as Lord Popovich's from Bistal; they all wanted to know who this enemy they faced truly was.

Igor clenched his fists; he was already filled with passion, eager to confront the invisible enemy right away.

But white paper is still white paper, and even though it had been fully spread in front of them, they still had no clues.

However, Igor hadn't realized this yet; he was completely immersed in his excitement.

Kadi, on the other hand, remained clear-headed. He always felt that Igor and the others were wasting time, and too much speculation was pointless; taking action was the real solution.

So Kadi yawned, "Ah, you all keep talking about useless things, without discussing what to do next. Only actions can yield results; what's the point of discussion?"

Kadi's words reminded the Kangen family that they still had many questions for Igor and his group.

Then Coban Kangen recalled what had happened earlier, particularly regarding the flame on Kadi.

"What about that blue flame creature when you confronted Patrick earlier?"

This question snapped Igor out of his previous excitement.

"That blue flame is called the Devouring Power. This power might just be what the enemy has been chasing all along."

"Why did it appear here?" Coban Kangen asked in confusion.

"The appearance of the blue flame triggered many unexpected things; factors we once considered safe exploded all at once." Will Kangen summarized what had happened on Bayes Avenue shortly after Coban Kangen asked.

"What are you talking about? What safe factors exploded all at once? What do you mean?" Igor, unaware of what had happened on Bayes Avenue at that time, was even more confused hearing Will Kangen's account.

"During the time you were confronting Patrick the Housekeeper, shortly after the blue flame appeared, there was a tremendous change on Bayes Avenue."

"Hmm?" Igor looked curiously at Coban Kangen, eager to learn what this tremendous change was.

"The amazing vibration came from Bayes Avenue, and I also felt the spiritual power fluctuation." Pete Kangen picked up the topic.

Igor was even more baffled; what vibration, what spiritual power fluctuation? Why hadn't he perceived it?

"Those mutants, as I'll call them for now, have powerful spirit energy, and even our family's experts could only barely match them in battle."

"Did they change their appearance?" Pete Kangen continued to ask.

"Yes, many were civilians, civilians that our guarantees protected, providing services throughout Bayes Avenue."

"How did you handle this sneak attack? The other side seemed to have a more apparent advantage." Pete Kangen was gradually able to guess what had happened.

"The adversaries exploded with the appearance of the blue flame and perished with its disappearance. It seems that this blue flame was the true catalyst awakening this group."

With this remark, they all simultaneously looked toward Igor and his group.

The only ones who could explain what the blue flame was were Igor and his group.

Igor wasn't surprised by this; the blue flame had emerged from Kadi. He knew this flame was the Devouring Power, but he could not comprehend why those civilians had mutated. This detail required his thorough investigation.

It appeared that Xinbal was indeed quite special, enough to draw out hidden things, all because of that flame on Kadi...

Igor looked at Kadi, becoming increasingly curious about the secrets Kadi harbored.
