***

My eyes opened. I felt wide awake. I remembered all of it—the dreams and the conversation from the room at the end.

“Ugh.” I was seized by a sharp pain in my stomach and felt the urge to puke. “Bleargh…” I moaned, bending over on all fours as I vomited up a sticky fluid. It was blue. The blue fluid oozed over the ground, mixed with stomach juices and last night’s dinner.

Was this…Abyssal King Vita’s corpse?

Just then, I felt a strange sensation in my left hand. I removed my gauntlet and the Death God’s ring fell to the ground in shattered pieces. It sank into my puke with a squelching sound.

The ring had broken. I guess that confirmed Vita’s story. By entering my body of his own accord, Vita had committed suicide via the Death God’s ring. Poor guy.

Was this a bad call on Vita’s part, really? If he’d taken control of me, the Man-God would have as good as won. There would have been nothing I could do to stop it…

It was a coincidence—or maybe I ought to call it fate—that had stopped him. Raxos’s bone ring hadn’t only been good for making Kishirika talk after all. Randolph himself might not have known the ring’s real power, either.

“Oh, right,” I said, looking around. “What about Ruijerd?” I was inside a building. This floor, these walls, this layout… I knew this place. It was Ruijerd’s house.

Considering what had happened, maybe Ruijerd had carried me here after Vita jumped from him to me? It was light outside. How many hours had passed? I decided cleaning up the puke could wait until after I’d found him.

“Ruijerd?” I called, but the master of the house didn’t reply. Maybe he was out. Or maybe there was another reason. For the time being, I’d survey my surroundings. I needed to see what was going on.

I sat up. Right away, I found Ruijerd. He was lying on the ground on the other side of the hearth.

“Rui—” I began, then broke off, speechless. Ruijerd’s face was gray and he was wheezing, shivering violently as he clutched at himself.

Oh, this was bad.

It reminded me of something he’d said. If Abyssal King Vita dies, his offshoots die as well. The village will be engulfed by the plague again.

So Ruijerd was in this state because…

“The…the plague…”

Abyssal King Vita hadn’t just died quietly. Yeah, what he’d done had been more than an inadvertent suicide… It was a suicide bombing.
