The old man looked at the pond. In his haste, he didn't notice that even though he walked past it quite a lot of time.
He stepped closer to the pond. The more he looked at it, the more he found it to be incomprehensible.
He looked at his surroundings, frowning. "Is this not the place where Chaos' Palace used to be?"
"Yeah. I destroyed it," Gabriel answered. "However, no matter what I do, I can't touch this pond. The barrier... It's even worse than anything I have ever seen."
The old man stepped closer to the pond in curiosity. He didn't know why, but the four creatures swimming in the pond appeared to be special. And two of them gave him a very familiar feeling.
He reached out his hand.
"If I was you, I wouldn't do that," Gabriel chimed in, but the old man didn't listen.
