Next morning I woke up early without any disturbing dreams of Dolus or whatever. Looks like he was captured for good by Janus with the help of Lucifer and Amon. Though, I didn't even have to visit the white dimension either…

It was early in the morning and the sun wasn't out yet and the whole castle was probably sleeping… most of them, anyway.

On the rooftop of Iredale Castle, a white-haired kid was currently walking in circles all around the rooftop. With his fixated gaze, as he calculated each and every inch of that place, there was a slight irritation on his face.

He just sat down on the floor as he began heavily pondering about something. Once again, he stood up and started analysing the whole area one step at a time. He moved towards the wall where he put his hands touching them as if trying to feel the depth before…

"Shadow Style: Spear of the Devil," he punched the wall…

-BOOOM!!!!!

A loud bang was heard in addition to the wall breaking and an empty room came into view. He then proceeded to punch the walls around the hole he created slowly and slowly, creating more and more explosions in his way.

-BOOOM!!

-BOOOM!!!!

-BOOOM!!

-BOOOM!!!

With each punch, he kept destroying the wall furthermore until he shattered it all, widening the hole he created even more than it was before. After he was done with breaking the walls, he turned around to find the half asleep Leeway family along with Lucia and the others gawking at him, wondering what exactly he was up to.

"You could have asked me and I would have just sent some men to do this work," Mark Leeway was the first one to speak up as he looked at Zero. He didn't think Zero would be doing something like this for no reason, and Zero answered him without much thought,

"It all worked out anyway, didn't it? It also saved me the time to go and call you. Can you give me the materials I asked for and also get your men to clean that?"

Mark looked at him for a few moments with a curious gaze before speaking,"did something happen last night? You look a little different from before…"

Hearing his words, Zero got a little curious before asking,"what do you mean by that?"

"Before you seemed emotionless… but now it feels like you have… "Mark's voice trailed off as he was speaking and Zero pondered a little as he thought,'must be because of the time in Avalon with Hygeia,' and then sighed before speaking.

"Just your imagination. Now, get back to work and let me do my part."

Zero then ignored the curious gazes of all the people present there and focused on the floor of the roof once again. The other people who were there looked at Mark Leeway and then at Zero for a few moments before Mark Leeway shook his head and got to his work.

Soon more and more people left, leaving only about 4 people there.

Elaric Leeway, the guy with whom Zero fought last night.

Bernette Leeway, the girl who was the reason that Zero was here.

William, the guy who had a serious expression on his face as he observed the change in Zero.

And finally Lucia… who saw something she couldn't comprehend…

[The person in front of you hated you to the core. Enough to kill you mercilessly.

The person in front of you loved you to the deepest of his desires. Enough to fight against the whole world for you.

He loved you before, but now he has begun moving on. The only feeling he currently bears towards you is bitter emotions that he wants to forget.]

Something definitely happened, but she couldn't understand what could happen in just one night? Because it was just last night that she had checked his emotions, making sure there was no change… yet…

She knew that the emotions Zero had towards her were strong, so they can't be changed in just one night… something big must have happened, but exactly what…? Though after thinking a bit about it she reached a conclusion…

'I am running out of time… if I don't hurry it up, I will lose a chance that I probably won't get any time soon.'

While Lucia was feeling the urgency of things going faster than she could predict, William had an expression that he wanted to know what had just happened to Zero.

​ He looked like if he was given the chance, he could just barge in and forcefully make Zero tell him everything… though he himself wasn't sure if he was strong enough to do that… forget about Mark Leeway's wrath… Can he take Zero out if he was given the chance one on one? Nobody knows.

The amount of surprises Zero had was something only Zero knew and messing with him… probably was not a good idea in any way.

'I guess, I will wait for now,' William thought as he looked at Zero concentrating on the whole floor once again. Zero had a better expression, and he looked like had a satisfied smile on his face.

William then left too, and not even moments later, Lucia hurriedly left as well. Zero did not know yet, but he just started another storm which was coming towards him rapidly. One that involved a secret so significant that it would jeopardize his complete reality.

Elaric and Bernette stood there for a few moments before both of them moved down as well. They looked like they wanted to talk to Zero but looking at him, engrossed in his work; they decided that it wasn't the best time to talk with him.

A few minutes later, a dozen people came with bags in both of their arms. They looked emotionless from top to bottom and if one wasn't really paying attention to their life signs, they would have taken them for robots or something.

Those men brought the bags filled with materials that Zero ordered and put them in a corner where Zero pointed them to. They then began taking care of the debris created by Zero in the process of breaking the wall.

Zero then moved towards the bags and counted the materials one by one, Black Tulip and the Tears of Red Swan mixed with the spell [Foundation of Healing]... creating a strange syrup that was stored in glass bottles.

There were about 300 such bottles and with that much amount, Zero made an awkward expression, wondering if Mark didn't end up killing all the Red Swans or something in the process of securing these?

"Well… at least I have all the ingredients required so what happened to others shouldn't bother me that much… now that we are at this point…" Zero spoke as he turned serious as he took out one of the bottles and then took out a small basket and placed it beside him where he poured the liquid syrup into before…

-Slash

He cut his own wrist along with activating his regeneration magic. The blood poured heavily into the basket where the liquid syrup was and they both started mixing vigorously.

When the mixture reached the top, Zero enhanced his regeneration, healing himself completely. Normally the blood might have clotted, but with that mixture, it could be preserved for another hour or so.

Zero then began moving towards the centre of the rooftop, under the slightly shaken gaze of those emotionless men. Slight sweat was visible on their foreheads as they gulped, looking at the child who had just slit his own wrist and filled the basket with his own blood.

But it wasn't just that… it was that carefree look on his face as if nothing happened… that was the thing that sent chills down their spines. Then they began hurriedly moving on to do their own work…

Zero moved to the centre and began painting on the floor with the blood mixture… What he was drawing was a magic circle. It wasn't a normal circle but a reverse circle he discovered during his days of travels… this circle works on the principle of reversing the process of whatever took place, which was actually what he aimed to achieve in this case.

While he can't exactly heal Bernette, if he reversed the process he could bring out the parasite inside Bernette which he could kill and then later on heal Bernette giving her a chance to live normally.

The Black Tulip is there to inflict enough pain on the parasite while the Tears of Swan are there to heal Bernette back up along with [Foundation of Healing] as a backup spell in case the Tears of Red Swan did not work.

'Though, with my regeneration capability now… I think I could create another line of defence,' Zero thought as he poured a little bit of regeneration magic on specific parts of the circle.

And the process continued… Zero slitting his wrists, pouring the blood and then drawing the circle with the mixture…
