When the images of her family members shattered, Hilda again started to feel her mind getting blank, and all that happened appeared like a fleeting dream.
"What are you doing? Kill him, or he'll kill you!"
An appalled voice suddenly rang in Hilda's ears as she suddenly found herself in an exhausted state in which she felt pain all over her body.
It was a ghastly scene where she saw the destruction of her own home; death was ragging everywhere. She was standing in front of a kneeling figure who was bound by countless silver chains, yet even those chains were filled with cracks as that figure continued to struggle violently, and he was about to break free if something was not done.
Upon closer look, Hilda was shocked when she was the extremely breathtaking face of the restrained figure in silver chains. It was actually Cyrus who had this crazy look in his eyes, and seemingly endless killing intent was emitting from him.
She then saw her mother and father lying flat on the bloody debris with their limbs cut off and on the verge of dying while her uncle's cleaved head with a horrid last expression was already laying not far away from them.
It was a scene from a nightmare.
"K-kill him, or he'll you as well!" It was her father's weak yet pleading voice as he was taking his final breaths.
She then finally noticed the sword in her hand and how close she was to Cyrus's figure, and with just a few steps, she could directly behead him. Hilda trembled like a dry tree branch in the violent wind when she started to understand what had happened.
"YOU MORTALS DARE TO GO AGAINST ME. EVERYONE DESERVES TO DIE. EVEN THIS UNLOYAL BITCH! ONCE I'M FREE, I'LL WASH THESE LANDS WITH YOUR BLOOD!" Cyrus's furious voice rang like thunder in the vicinity as those chains started to crumble one another.
Hilda was stunned like a statue without being able to move or think…

Leo and Leona saw the same kind of scene, but the difference was Cyrus was killing their brother with the most brutal torture and had already killed one of them.
Unlike Hilda, they instantly struck given a chance without hesitation with bloodshot eyes…

Rita's happy life with her parents and as a Unique was instantly disrupted at this moment when Cyrus walked into their house holding his black sword, and Rita seemed to have forgotten to breathe when he saw his eyes filled with killing intent.
"You betray me for them despite promising me your life. Now I shall bury you with them after letting you see what will happen if you dare to betray me!" Cyrus coldly uttered before chilly Qi started to manifest from his sword.
"W-wait… I-I didn't know… NO!" Rita started to mutter like crazy as she wanted to explain herself when she noticed that a mysterious man suddenly sunk up on Cyrus and hit him hard over his head. He seemed to be completely helpless as he was struck and then fell on the floor, losing consciousness.
All the ghastly aura vanished, and the man struck Cyrus and walked in with a cold sneer. It was none other than her Great Grandfather.
"I came in the right time when I heard this fiend was after our family and my successor. Come here, little girl, and kill him, consider it a baptism of blood from our enemy, and you will also rid of the world from this fiend and welcome in the Magic Union!"
However, Rita's expression turned crazy when she saw Cyrus's head bleeding on the floor, and as if something finally flashed in her mind.
"This is a lie. He can't be stuck like this!"
The very next moment, a magic energy dagger appeared, and she instantly stabbed it in her heart…
---
Carla experienced someone vastly different as she was now the Lord of a city, and her city suddenly came under Cyrus's siege. After losing thousands of lives, they were finally able to bring down the assailant, even capturing him alive.
Now, Carla was given the honor as the City Lord to execute him on the spot as an offering to all those dying worries. However, she seemed quite hesitant when she looked at Cyrus's familiar yet unfamiliar face…

When Rita regained consciousness, she appeared in a strange state, as if she was drunk.
A gentle, amiable voice rang in her ears at this moment as it sounded extremely soothing, "Do you love someone romantically?"
Rita felt compelled to answer without having any ability to think it over, "Yes."
"What is his name?" The same voice rang again.
"Cyrus!" She answered in the same manner.
Everything fades away thereafter.
---
Hilda appeared in the same state as Rita, and the same voice rang.
"Do you love someone romantically?"
"I don't know."
"Why do you not know?"
"I don't know what love is…"
"Then do you like someone as an interest of your love?"
"Yes."
"Who?"
"Lord Cyrus."
"Do you think he is the only one who could be worthy of your love?"
"Yes."
"What if someone else besides him appeared who is worthier for your love than him?"
"If I love him, I would not love anyone else."
"Do you think he loves you?"
"I-I don't know…"
"Do you want to be loved by him?"
"Yes."
"What if he doesn't love you, and you love him?"
"I will still love him."
---
Leo goes through the same questioning.
"Do you love someone romantically?"
"Yes."
"What is his name?"
"It's my sister Leona."
"Why do you love her?"
"Because she is my sister."
"What if she doesn't love you?"
"I don't care."
"Do you ever love a man romantically?"
"No."
"Do you like a man romantically?"
"Yes."
"Who?"
"Lord Lust."
"Can you share your love for your sister with him?"
"Yes."
"What if you have no other choice?"
"Then I will choose Leona."
"What if another man appeared who is worthier than he?"
"I'll ask my sister for her opinion."
"Why?"
"Because I'll like or love whomever she will like or love, and right now, she liked Lord Lust, and I fully supported her choice. He is perfect for both of us!"
