Capítulo 121: Preparations

"Wait, what are you guys talking about?" Octane asked, scratching his head. "Ready to know what?"

"…" Lei averted his gaze, hesitant. Jim eyed him, sighed, then took it upon himself to explain.

"The fact that the bloody Emperor-level Ghosts all over the world right now are needin' to feed on humans to recover their strength means they were in a weak state when they first arrived," he said. "Now, we don't know why exactly that is, considerin' Ghosts usually spawn in completely uninjured, but I do have a few speculations."

"… Tyranny," Finn muttered.

Jim stopped, turning to him. "What was that, kid?"

"… It's tyranny," Finn reiterated. "There is a being above even the Emperor-levels — and it's controlling them through violence."

"Ha! Looks like I won't have ta explain at all," Jim chuckled, impressed.
