358 Mind Search (2/2)
”It's their nature, it's not suitable to talk about this right now, but I can assure you that this is not my first time witnessing how insidious these demons could be…”
I already planned on elaborating more about my experience, albeit not that detailedly, so giving Blade a few words now to stabilize his emotions was better than leaving it as it is.
After all, we had already almost committed a taboo by invading the clone's mind space, this time, using both of our mental energies and by relying on my experience of exploring Sprout's mind space, we simply went all out.
Unlike how I still had use to Sprout and how he could be considered to have been a very sad case of how community can be scarring, we had to kill the clone sooner or later, so we literality scavenged for information without caring about the safety of the clone, only how complete a piece of info would be, and what we found was worth Blade's reaction…
This clone which was already in a vegetative state by the time we were done, had simply done too much to turn the whole Nature Domain into a complete warzone!
The number of bases that the clone had activated was simply outrageous!
Just like the case which I was thrown into by chance, the clone had been traveling through the whole domain for the last year, delivering the preliminary keys to random targets and turning them into the keys themselves all in preparation for one big explosion…
Even the number of bases itself was beyond my imagination, there had been barely 3 or 4 bases that were activated in the Light Domain and if only they didn't have the corrupted Sky Dragon as a trump card they wouldn't have even stood a chance, but this time, tens of bases were scattered all over the domain!
It was pretty obvious by now how critical the state of the domain was…
”There is no excuse for being too blind and simply focusing on my own progress… I had simply been trying to breakthrough to the next stage for the last two years, leaving everything to Crane and the others, but…”
Blade simply denied my attempt as he scolded himself, he looked too different from his calm all-knowing personality when I first met him, but it was totally understandable…
After all, in the mix of memories we got from the clone, there was a good number of them that elaborated how Crane's friendship with Blade which almost reached the level of brotherhood was simply nothing but a facade that Crane employed.
He was just the smart type of guy that knew how to make use of situations as he managed to roleplay as a true friend for a whole 10 years for the benefits he would receive out of it, he wasn't even a demon seed by then, it had only been two years that he came into contact with them and decided to join them for the same reason, benefits.
”That's completely true, excuses wouldn't solve anything, but you still have the chance to fix everything, don't you?”
There was still hope for the domain!
