The kneeling Dissonant felt a stifling pressure attempt to crush him to death. Even with his strength surpassing that of powerhouses like the 3 Great Demon Kings, he coughed out black blood, his complexion paling.
"I… I shall not fail you again," he struggled to say, barely able to turn his head up and hold the sphere face's terrifying gaze.

"The Void Worms are about to awaken," the sphere finally said after a period of silence. "Gremoir, you must take ownership of that Tower Artifact and acquire what we came here for before they arrive. If you're unable to do this…"
'I'll be left behind…'
Gremoir didn't need to be reminded about what happened when Void Season came around and troops were still on a Cosmic Structure.
Abandonment…
"That's all."
Once again hearing the emotionless voice of the metal sphere, Gremoir bowed at a low angle before vanishing from the infinite expanse of darkness.
