Chapter 28 The Gate Towards the Abyss

The gate is not completely closed even after performing a ritual which is believed to lock it. The entity that was successfully freed made everyone lose their minds and caused bloodshed everywhere. The growing horror made those in this world experience bad things. Not a few of them began to take their lives. The pressure that continues to occur seems to have reached its peak. The existence of that entity was like a disaster. In the face of madness that spreads everywhere, Lucius who is the leader of the loyal followers of Alice De Stelion or better known as Alice Strauss. Previously Lucius was his student but, now he has become the head of the organization under his control. Alice's death is still a grief for those who are closest to her. Not only that, the death of one of his followers is also a wound that is difficult to treat. Right now, Antherius was on the verge of collapse. Once the gate was fully opened, the figure would grasp everything under destruction. The incident this time was successfully handled by Lucius but, it is possible that this will last a long time. Alice's body that was sealed in a crystal in six different places made a locking seal temporarily hold her back. Behind this terrible tragedy someone tries to move the doll and make it the main point for fun.
"We'd better catch them soon. If not, those people will only make the terror even more crazy," said one of the men with semi-blonde hair.
"What are we going to do anyway?"
"We'd better form a defensive wall."
"What?"
"I mean a security group that will strengthen us and stop those who commit crimes."
"Interesting."
"Yes. Not bad."
The meeting was brief and only discussed protection and security. This time the humans did their job quite well. They started to form a security union to keep everyone out of harm's way and save the victims. They call it a human protection organization. Behind such a name, they also made a pact with a homoculus to keep the peace and fight the Abyss followers. Trust that is established can quite form a bond. They built their headquarters on the border of the cities of Antherius and Eldelius. The place is quite strategic for them. In addition, the government also took part in this and they also helped several times in implementing the program. Lucius who now chooses to be the guardian of the first place himself is only in his residence which turns out to be like a temple when viewed from the outside. A place that is quite suitable for him. A famous painter in that century made a masterpiece that made all people stunned to see it. The work is so famous that many art critics want to buy the work. Marchell named his work after his original model name “Alice.” The painting of a silver-haired woman with a beautiful ruby ​​eye color makes her so enchanting. The masterpiece, which has become a subject of contention as well as controversy, made him feel depressed. Lately, many say that the woman in his painting is an evil entity that has been hiding in the dark. The rumors were further strengthened by several groups who claimed to have met the figure in their dreams.
"Are they crazy? Why are there so many baseless rumors like this. This irritates me," said a man who was Lucius' right hand man.
"Just leave it."
"What? but it tarnishes the image of the great teacher.”
“They are just insane people. Why should you respond? Never mind, no one will believe that."
"Hey, Lucius."
“Oh yes, it seems that person is still roaming this country. So be careful.”
"Ah, yes you shouldn't be reckless either."
A dark place at the bottom of the abyss of despair. A man with black hair and black eyes is seen sitting relaxed while enjoying alcohol. It was as if he had just won the lottery. His expression like a mad villain made him scary. A few minutes after he managed to open Pandora's box, a dark smoke came out of it and swallowed his soul. After his soul mixed, the man had a different expression than before. Behind the mirror, he was trapped forever.
"Oh, damn it. I should have just killed them," he muttered as he took a sip of the alcohol in his hand
“Young master, preparations are complete.”
"Hmm...do."
"Good."
Not long after, the group of masked people began to launch an attack on the southern part of Antherius. There they carried out indiscriminate massacres without leaving a single person behind. Elsewhere, some of them also carried out mass massacres. Blood spilled in various places made a sea of ​​despair. A scream that was already like a beautiful tone. Make them do more torture. While they were having fun, the security team assigned by the human protection organization began to launch an attack on the masked group. Although many were also victims of the security team, at the same time the organization called the protective pillar also carried out attacks. The battle, which was like a war, continued every day and almost took many lives.
"If we continue like this we will all be finished. They are not human."
"What do you mean?"
"Look at that madness, the weapon they wield is a spell."
"Magic?"
"Are you sure?"
"I saw it myself."
The two security team members continued to talk without noticing the presence of the enemy. As soon as they turned around, both of them died instantly. The masked man emptied both of them mercilessly. This time Marchell was in an art gallery of his own and began to paint the gruesome scene before his eyes. All he saw was horror. Not only that, Marchell also hopes that people in the future will not experience the life he is currently living. When he was busy painting, someone came to him and offered something. At first he was undecided with his decision until he finally got up the courage to refuse it. However, bad luck has befallen him.
BOOM
Gunshots shattered eardrums. Marchell lay on the floor with blood on his head. That's when the painting became terrible. There is a rumor circulating that Marchell's soul possessed a painting called Alice and that soul was trapped in it forever.
"What? Marchell was found dead?” said Lucius
"Yes. One of his students found him dead and covered in blood."
"Unlucky."
"Hey Lucius where are you going?"
News of his death spread in no time and this horrific story began to be erased.
