On the screen that Arne had been flicking through out of boredom was news playing footage meant for all humans to see. I think it was stuck on repeat, so it must've been sent out way earlier.
In the footage, a shapeless figure with a digitized voice spoke as they revealed Avarice and Verin as "evil gods" and unveiled their plan to start another world war for profit by selling a special enhancement substance to other countries. There were even shots of documented proof and recordings of the various bases Avarice had built. The shapeless figure in the video went on to explain how the recent destruction to the Sadios, Russos, and Heart families weren't coincidental tragedies but was due to them planning to intervene with Avarice's plans.
Then the video switched to a clear image of me and the others as the voice told everyone that only we could save them. It even revealed the others as reincarnates of the long-forgotten Primordials, with short clips of some of them using their extraordinary powers over the years and even some footage of their training.
"Hm. I suppose that means we won't go unnoticed anymore," Arne commented.
Next in the footage was a final display of coordinates with a message that read — FIND THEM. BELIEVE IN THEM. —
Michael raised an eyebrow, "Is that..."
We suddenly became aware of a dull roar from outside and moved to the windows to see dozens—no, hundreds—of people gathered outside the gates to Michael's manor. Among the horde of people were even members of the Church of Light from Poland. They were all screaming, making it impossible to distinguish what any one person was saying, but we could see the plea in their eyes to get the message.
"Who did this?" Naomi asked as she released some of her power to soothe as many of the humans as she could. "They're all so frantic. They're bound to hurt each other."
I smiled. Not at the risks the people's fear was putting them in, but at the sight of them unified, if even for a moment.
"It's gotta be Vicki," I replied. "She's opened everyone's eyes."
Perhaps there is room for reconciliation? Viraa voiced in my head.
I pondered the possibility. Vicki may have killed her dad, but she wasn't responsible for what happened to my family. She wasn't responsible for what happened to Trik. For all I knew she could've been ordered to betray us or much worse...
Yeah, perhaps...36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYUzzxIeM0

Fun fact: Claeg's cintracy is called 'Blood Charge'. It is a temp cintracy that gives him the ability to grow stronger the more blood he consumes, resulting in a larger, bulging physique.
