(The primordials, formidable beings who are closest to reaching the truth of this world. But because of their arrogance, they remain in their illusions of being the most powerful in the hierarchy; at least, until a few months.)
"Linn! I swear on my soul that if you do anything irreflective, I WILL KILL YOU WITH MY OWN HANDS, NO MATTER IF YOU ARE ONE OF US!"
(Even if they were shocked to learn this truth, they were not dissatisfied! The cause was that they were not really desperate. Why would they be dissatisfied knowing that they can still progress?! By the only factor and the unknown that is called Alvine, Sabrina and the others had underestimated the greed of these people towards their master. And as a result, they would soon learn this fact!)
"Hoo~, I'm scared! Hihi~, don't worry, it's just for a century or two, then I'll return to return him to you without fail! We revered in a few centuries, dear mistress!" Following these words, Linn instantly vanished with Alvine in the living room!
"Mistress...We don't know anything about Linn's presence in here!" Helios, for the first time, anyone could see how much he was really panicked; after noticing Sabrina's silence and the hostility of Alvine's allies towards them.
Whether Sabrina or Sylvia, none of them could intervene to prevent Linn from volatilizing with their master; since the latter had taken hostage their master with her space blade.
Linnaella, more commonly known as Linn, was one of the Punishers who was the promising candidate for the Punishers’ Leader’s position after Alvinos Disappearance (the former leader of the Punishers). The reason for this woman's assurance was that she was the most feared of all the members of Punishers when it came to slaying as an assassin!
During the Great War, she was one of the beings who received nicknames because of her prowess, which is not really far from Sabrina's. One of her most famous nicknames is... the universe’s shadow.
Because of her Spatial concept, she was a nightmare and a disaster for leaders. She could find anyone in the universe by a simple thought; she is the mistress of space, the only one among Punishers and leaders who cannot be hunted down once escaped!
But for some reason, the anger they expected to see on Sabrina's face was absent.
'Something is wrong.' Ferda frowned and spoke of these words. The interesting thing about her, too, was that she wasn't really as weak as she suggested. She had a combat and magical power that had nothing to envy that of Linn or Sylvia.
But just like Sylvia, she also suffered irreversible wounds during the last war when she tried to go back in time and reverse the death of the mother tree!
After Alvine disappeared from Linn, Sabrina also vanished into the living room and instantly found herself in her office.
Following a big sigh, she locked the door behind her and looked at her shadow. "Are you with me, Darka? How is the master?"
While talking to herself alone in the office, Darka's shadow bent above her, instantly changing the room's atmosphere, making it suffocating and threatening.
"The Lord is doing well. But he currently has billions of years from here, a place commonly called... the end of the universe." The thundering voice of the first shadow soldier, Darka, was amplified by the size of the room.
"Tsk, this bitch always has the ambition to see what is beyond the universe... Huh? Tsk, Tsk, It seems that we really have no allies, even within the Punishers. Finally, I have no choice but to trust the master's plan. We must discover the identity of the bastard who spreads all these rumors about the master." She said while placing her thumb under her chin with a thoughtful look.
After a few seconds, she looked at Darka. "The plan is simple, as long as the master is not in danger, you have a duty not to do anything. Otherwise, you have the right to do everything in your power to remedy the situation. You can leave now; I'll leave the master between you, don't disappoint me, please."
Following Sabrina's words, Darka only nodded slightly before disappearing into the office.
"Sigh, I bet that if my master had witnessed the great war, the title of the "shadow of the universe" would come rightfully to him." She sat on her armchair as she spoke these words.
After looking at some recent documents, a Machiavellian smile embellishes his lips. "Well, it seems that the master is more vicious than I expected. Now that he has been captured by the most difficult person to capture or track down, the tension will be weakened for a while on our side."
"Sigh; even if it's risky, it's the only solution that eliminates these power-hungry beings. After letting everyone know that Linn had captured the master, he will be able to escape easily and join us without anyone knowing it. As a result, not only will everyone waste their time chasing this bitch, but we will no longer have to take care of these embarrasses who do not stop rotting our daily lives."
After finishing her work, the smile on her face faded as she looked at the door. "Sigh, even I'm not sure it's simple rumors. I had doubts at first, but now, I'm sure that the master can do such a miracle; it's just that he's not yet strong enough for that; if only he had a little more time available... I'm sure he’ll become as strong as us, or maybe
-Knock, knock, knock...
"You can come in, Sylvia." She said after the door knocked.
Following these words, Sylvia crosses the threshold of the door. "Sabrina...so?"
Sabrina: "Don't worry; everything is going according to plan. Even if I'm not reassured to know that the master is alone with this unpredictable girl." She said in a disturbing tone while placing the report she was reading on the table and immediately signed it with the quill.
Hearing Sabrina's words, Sylvia sat down from the armchair in front while sighing heavily. "Umm, you're not wrong. The master attracted a lot of attention these last few days. But I don't think all these rumors are false. Like me, you have seen how Galiel's daughter has evolved and reached a realm that no other person has reached since the death of a mother, haven't you? Maybe, in the end, he may really be able to accomplish this fanciful rumor!
"Sigh, Sylvia, don't let yourself be fooled like the others." Sabrina stopped her before she continued in her words.
"...I'm sure you've noticed it too, like me. I’m sure; He’s not a resident of this universe! Now that I think about it, it's strange to see you so faithful to him; did you...by chance, did you know that he had such powers from the beginning?" The moment Sylvia had this thought, it was as if she had just broken a mystery that had tormented her from the beginning.
As for Sabrina, seeing the suspicion in Sylvia's eyes, she neither avoided the subject nor turned around the skin. But, given a clear and short answer to Sylvia. "Yes, I knew it. And I know more interesting information about him than you cannot imagine."
"What?! L-Like what?!" Sylvia stammered while frowning.
'I didn't understand why she was so obsessed about the master, but if it's true what she just said, she won't be really different from other people who try to capture him at all costs to experiment on him!'
Seeing Sylvia increasingly suspicious of her, Sabrina explained as if she could guess her thoughts. "Sigh, I understand that you are suspicious of me, but you must know one thing unlike the others; I swore fidelity to him with the soul oath. Therefore, even if my intentions are not the best, my actions remain the most loyal."
"...I understand. But you're sure you don't want to tell me more about...
Before Sylvia finished her words, Sabrina shook her head while giving her a categorical refusal! "Certainly not; the less you know, the better it’ll be, at least, as long as you don't conclude an oath for him. I know that you are faithful to him and so devoted to him only because he is my master. But this form of fidelity is not strong enough to resist the temptation!"
Hearing Sabrina's harsh words, instead of being frustrated, Sylvia became more and more curious about it. "Does he have so many attributes that are more important and special than what rumors say about him?"
Sabrina, who had just finished the paperwork, began rearranging her office while giving Sylvia a vague answer. "Forget that; you’ll learn more when the time comes. I now have to take care of these three. Now that I have a good excuse for the oppressed, they’ll understand the hell that awaits them." Just after these words, she disappeared into the office, leaving Sylvia with uncontrollable shivers.
"Hm, this woman is crazy. In short, the good news is that she always knows how to play her cards; at this rate, I’d not be surprised if she put these people with us using their feelings of guilt against themselves! But she didn't understand anything about my loyalty to the master."

pαпᵈα-noνɐ1·сoМ But contrary to what his maids thought, Alvine had a bigger problem than expected.
After a short trip that did not even wink, Alvine suddenly found herself in the living room of a 'common' mansion that was neither too luxurious nor dilapidated but rather ordinary on the side of its size and decoration.
But Alvine's eyebrows contracted after the tyrannizing felt as if he was missing part of his soul. It was an unpleasant but familiar feeling simultaneously, as if he had already experienced something similar.
Thus, feeling the danger, the latter no longer turned his attention to his kidnapper, who had just returned him the freedom of his movements; instead of looking at the mysterious woman behind him, Alvine first tested his skills stealthily.
But it only took him a second to understand what was happening to him. First, he had no problem using all his affinities, including the affinity of the shadow; but with one close exception. His spatial affinity was naturally sealed. Apart from that, his shadow’s affinity also had more worrying problems that he had never encountered before!
'What is this place?! I have no problem communicating with my shadow soldiers, but yet, not only can I not enter the dimension or invoke a shadow soldier. But the worst thing about all this mess is that I can't even open a dimensional portal to teleport out of this place! What exactly is this mansion?!' He wondered while touching the wall next to him as his frown accentuated.
"Indeed~~, Mistress Sabrina has the gift of finding invaluable pearls in piles of pebbles." Linn giggled after recovering from the shock, seeing Alvine not spare her the slightest interest despite being captured by her.
