Chapter 17 Offerings for the Abyss

Today is a day of blessing for them. After Gabriel along with the others decided to come to the show they all disguised themselves perfectly. Everyone came to a theater south of Eldelius. It's a pretty strategic place and there are a lot of people coming. However, the people who came were apparently not just ordinary people there were some who belonged to the important class of people and that made Gabriel who was there feel surprised. When everything was inside the performance hall, a few minutes later a man wearing a unique mask came onto the stage and started his show. Gabriel tried to stay calm and then after the host announced something, the show began. It's a regular theatre show and the story isn't too heavy. Everyone tortured him with happiness. Not long after, the event had already reached its peak with a storyline that began to approach the conflict. That's when something happened. The lights of the theater room then went out and made everyone feel astonished at this mistake. Gabriel who was in the audience along with Ilya quickly told Gabriel to look down for no reason and he followed him. Silence broke the room and it wasn't long before the lights came on. It was then that Gabriel was terrified. Where all the spectators except him and Ilya had their heads no longer there.
"What, what the other thing?" said Gabriel with a very surprised face.
He still couldn't believe what was in front of his eyes. Ilya then pulled it up and they started sneaking into a room. Everyone in front of the theater stage now only had his body and at the same time Gabriel had previously heard a strange voice. The atmosphere in this place is terrible. The two of them then ran from the performance room to the other room even though Gabriel still felt angry with all this. When they were passing through the corridor, this place was very dark so that's why the two of them had to be careful. Not long after, at the end of the upstairs corridor Ilya saw someone and quickly told Gabriel to leave. The aura seen this time was different from the one they had previously encountered.
"Go. You have to go upstairs," said Ilya, who then walked up to the man.
"That's right. Are you going to face it alone?"
"Yes."
"Don't joke we'll find that guy and catch him."
"Don't be stubborn. Go," Ilya said with a sharp look. Gabriel who then saw the look in his eyes finally gave up and left Ilya who was in the main floor corridor.
The person in front of Ilya then came towards him while walking casually. And then the two of them faced each other. Ilya who then prepared in combat mode before herself just looked relaxed and now started to look alert. The person in front of him was a man wearing a white mask. And on his arm was a hexagon sign. The man then unmasked his mask and as soon as he saw his face, Ilya was shocked.
"Well, we met again apparently," said the man.
"You? Raven."
"My luck is unlucky too," Raven said with a smile on her face.
"Now I understand. So it's like that," Ilya said with a smile as if enjoying the show.
"Too bad Ilyasviel, it looks like we should be hostile."
"Don't brag. Isn't it clear."
The battle of the two of them then began. In a different place, Gabriel was running towards the top floor. Before entering this place, Gabriel had promised Vincent and Mckena that he would find Clown and capture him. Meanwhile, Mckena is along with Jake preparing to attack when the signs start and that is the mark that gabriel will give. They are now monitoring from the opposite direction outside this building. Unlike Vincent who is now in a room and confronted by a man wearing a clown mask. Vincent then began to put up a fight and their battle took place fiercely in the room.
"It turns out you're on that road," said the masked man.
"Ah, are you disappointed?"
"Yes. I thought you'd just sit sweetly watching all this without having to interfere."
"What are you guys doing? Killed everyone at the same time that much?"
"Of course it's for the sake of summoning the Abyss."
"You are no longer in your right mind! It will all be over if the creature comes out."
"Are you afraid of dying? It's funny that Vincent is afraid of death."
The man in Vincent's presence then laughed loudly and at that moment the man removed his mask. Vincent who was in front of him was then surprised and his eyes glared at the man. Apparently the person before him was none other than one of Alice's disciples who was the third seal guard. Vincent still couldn't believe this and then fell silent by looking at him.
"You? Why?"
"What's the why? This is my destiny."
"Does Lucius know this?"
"Oh, you haven't heard it apparently. It's a shame that the loser is dead."
Vincent was then surprised to hear what the person in front of him had said. The look on his face looked extremely depressed and the person in front of him only looked at him with a terrifying smile.
"What do you say?"
2 days ago. At the place where Lucius was with his subordinates inside his work room. After Gabriel and Ilya leave from there and will head to the next seal place. There, they were resting and it wasn't long before someone came into the room. They were both surprised by the figure that came to them. The person who came to them was none other than one of Alice's students and was the third seal keeper named Gerald. Lucius who saw him instantly said something.
"You..."
Before Lucius continued his words, gerald had apparently pierced his heart using an invisible spell. The blood coming out of his body was so much that it made him fall from his chair. Lucius' subordinate who saw it without lingering directly attacked him and was also hit by Gerald's attack and made his body hollow.
"What are you doing in vain!" said Lucius, who was still breathing before he died.
"It's troublesome."
After killing them both, Gerald then leaves the place and wears a clown mask joining forces with Raven and moves to meet someone. Currently, Gerald is dealing with Vincent and their battle is in balance. Both have equal abilities. Meanwhile, Ilya had already finished off Raven in the main corridor. He was now scattered with blood splashed from Raven's decapitated body. Ilya is now different from before who was only seen playing around in the fight. He then walked down the place and wanted to find the man. Gabriel had now reached the top floor of this place. He then entered a main hall in the building and there in a throne-like chair was a man who was sitting relaxed and looking at Gabriel. That person had black hair and had the same eye color as him. The shocked Gabriel then fell silent to see it.
On the other hand, a few days ago before this show started. The black-haired man gathered together with Gerald and Also Raven in the meeting room. The three of them felt very sad because they had to make even more sacrifices. After the destruction of Antherius which was the next step to resuming the opening stage of the Abyss gate. The initial stage of the plan was when they began to divide Alice's body into 6 parts and placed it in 6 different places. This plan is of course only known by a few of them. Groups of people who wear white masks and carry out a lot of terror are part of their plan. Now Gerald has joined him and will make this plan perfect by getting rid of a few more people and using them as objects of sacrifice.
"It's really troublesome, too," Raven said.
"We're just going to take the last step," the man told the two of them.
"Why didn't you catch him right then and there?" asked Gerald to Raven.
"Well, I'm sorry. But there the man was with him. It would be troublesome if all our plans were known to him right?"
"You mean Lucius?"
"Yes. I don't know why the boy was with him. I don't think it will be like that."
"But there is little more. How is this sir?" said Gerald to the man who was with the two of them.
"It could be another way."
Their conversation lasted quite a long time. At the same time, in some places that are seals. They were at their place and someone came to one of them. That person came to the residence of one of the seal guards named Yura. The man confronted her at the residence that was where the seal was located.
"What do you need to come here? And who are you?" asked Yura.
"You can call me Thomas."
Yura then fell silent to see Thomas who was in front of her and it wasn't long before they spoke while sitting in his chair. Thomas showed Yura a book. The book that has been searched by everyone for a long time and this is thought to have been missing for 100 years. Yura who was surprised how Thomas could find it while he had been looking all over the place was found.
"How did you find him?" asked Yura.
"My job is archaeologists. So, finding something like this isn't a difficult thing for me."
"Oh yes, I didn't even cross paths with a girl who looked like him. Is this a sign?" said Yura.
