Creige stood looking at the bugs crawling over the pool of blood and thought for a moment. "These things are known to pass right through barriers and armor but…. They will not be able to avoid a time and space distortion. At least I hope..."

Creige was only going on theory. If it worked, it would be a simple task. If not, then he would become a meal. He just hoped it wouldn't consist of him being the main course. Taking a deep breath and preparing himself for the worst, Creige waved his hand, causing a large tear in time and space to form the size of the entire floor. Along with that, he formed a vortex to begin sucking up the blood and bodies on the floor. Because of their instincts to follow anything with blood, the vortex was easily catching them and sucking the bugs up with the rest of the blood as they gave chase. After a minute, the whole room was clear of the bugs, and not even a spec of blood could be found.

"This… You're Creige, are you not?" Man's voice came from one of the cells.

"And you are the high god who is always with Kiliffia. Hold on. I will get you both out." Creige said as he waved his hand caused the doors of two cells to come off their hinges and fall to the ground. When he walked into the cell holding Kiliffia first, he quickly scanned her body for injuries only to find that she had some cuts and scrapes on her. Besides that, she looked to have not been fed for years. Her entire body was nothing but skin and bones. "She is still alive. Barely but still alive. This poor girl always ends up in the worst situations."

Creige bent down and lifted the fox girl up into his arms. As soon as she sensed someone touching her, she tried to get away, but Creige did not care for her weak struggle as he walked out of the cell with her and over to the cell next door. "I see now. They used negnite to seal your strength."

"Yes, luckily, it was not enough to seal off all of my power. These few years, I have kept them from entering this room since they brought us here. In the end, they filled the room with those damn bugs. I would prefer for the two of us to die of starvation than for my wife to fall into the hands of those men. To die by hunger is much better than to be tortured by them." Methiesee gave a pained expression as he gazed at Kiliffia. His wife has had to suffer because he also fell for that trap.

"Don't blame yourself. The magic array they set up is a lure. It brings you to a small hut. And then the wooden slab was the trigger. Once read, you would be put into a weakened state. But luckily, this girl was able to leave a message etched on the back with a tuft of her hair. Otherwise, we would not have found you." Creige explained.

"I'm guessing if you are here, Kana is also here?" Methiesee asked.

"Mm.. so are my daughters. You could say we took a family outing to the mortal world." Creige said lightly, trying to brighten the mood a bit. But sadly, he was never good at doing such things except with Kana and his daughters. "There you are now free. Do you got the strength to carry her?"

"No matter how weak I am, I will always have the strength to carry her." Methiesee declared.

Methiesee took Kiliffia from Creige's arms. The familiar scent must have calmed her down because she stopped fighting and sunk her face into his chest. Two tears rolled down her sunken in cheeks. "It's fine now, my little fox. Your goddess and her family have come to save us."

Criege smiled slightly before going back to his normal cold expression that always gave outsiders. "Let's go back to the main entrance."

"Alright, lead the way." Methiesee held Kiliffia tight in his arms as he followed after Creige.

As the main objective had been completed, two groups were moving towards the main entrance. Kana, on the other hand, was standing in a large, dimly lit room with the smell of blood all over the place. Inside were large glass tubes of disfigured humans, elves, and beastkin. Every race on the Munas continent could be found here. Some of them had different kinds of plants growing out of their bodies. While others looked like that and swelled up like balloons. "Disgusting, isn't it?"

A voice caught Kana off guard as she quickly turned to her left to see a humanoid chained to the wall. "You are… a Fei?"

"Mmm… My kind is known to have extraordinary power that can control all planets and, if used in the right area and conditions, can be very powerful. These people wished to harness that power for themselves. But as you can see, this is what they were doing. One failed experiment after the other. Anyway. There is a door straight across from me on the opposite wall. It has some injured men in there who are recovering. Please do me a favor and kill them as well as burn me and the rest of these abominations. My role in what has happened here is too great. I only wish to die to make up for the sins my blood has committed." The Fei's eyes showed great sorrow as it looked around the room.

"If that is what you wish..." Kana turned her head and stretched out her hand. She shot a wave of flame from it, smashing into the door across the way and into the room. Screams of pain were heard coming from inside. Once the screams faded, Kana did not stop her flames as she began setting the whole place on fire. She then took a look at the fei on the wall and said: "I will make your death painless."

With those words Kana took a deep breath and blew out a wave of flames thousands of times hotter than the other flames directly at the Fei. The Fei closed its eyes and smiled at Kana as it mouthed: "Thank you." before being engulfed and turned to ash.
