"T-this power… it's just like back then…"
I swiftly looked in the direction of the quivering voice, only to find Ciel mumbling as she shivered in fear. Her widened eyes which seemed about to pop out of their sockets told of an untold trauma, and her pursed lips trembled with terrifying horror.
A dark sense of expectation hung above her and I could feel tension spreading throughout the hall at a rapid rate.
'I need to find out exactly what's going on.'
"One second…" I told everyone, instantly teleporting out of the throne room.
>VWUUSH!<
In a flash, I appeared outside, floating directly on top of the grand Midas Palace. My head was raised high into the sky, and my senses enhanced to their limits.
That was when I saw it… the sight that was impossible to miss.
'N-no way…'
Many miles and kilometres away from the Midas Empire and its pleasant ambience was a thick formation of dark clouds. I recognized the coordinates well.
