The Hell Gate was closed, and its closure was rather abrupt, forcing even Pandemonium to feel slightly… unease. He glanced into the distance as he flew above a gigantic Demonic Beast, his eyes flaring with concern, and slight amount of anger.
"Hoh? How were these bastards capable of closing the Gate so quickly…?" He muttered. "Interesting…"
"It doesn't matter." The one accompanying him said. "Simply get ready for what's to come. Once you can gather enough energy, you do whatever you want…"
"Huh… You really don't care about anything, huh? How was a being like you born from this very world? Are your ambitions really beyond your home?" Pandemonium wondered, smiling.
"…" The figure at his side remained in silence, thinking, and then it spoke again. "I've gained enlightenment in the many years I've lived. And I have realized only one absolute, my own life, soul, and dreams. And I will take lives, destroy this world, and shatter all other dreams for my own."
