"Hmm?" Eve looked back, stunned. "How did the door close on its own?"

"Master Chi, are you here?" she called out. 

There was no response to her call, which prompted her to ask again. "Master Chi? Are you here? I need to talk to you urgently!"

"Urgently?" A calm voice came from all around Eve. "What's the hurry?"

"I just had a feeling. I knew the importance of those stones for Lucifer. It wasn't hard to guess that someone was going to come to the island to take the stone from me."

" I just had to wait. There was no way he wasn't going to come meet the old man after all."

"Honestly, though, I expected him to come personally, not send someone random. I read the entire data I received from Uprising. Your name wasn't even mentioned in the upper echelon."
