Only after Saint Ruan had left did Iver walk toward the place where the Fallen Angel had disappeared.
He slowly extended his hand and touched the void.
Ripples like waves rose, and a rune emerged from within.
It distorted reality, constantly changing, until it finally took the shape of a Fallen Angel's feather and stabilized.
—This was an Angel Shard.
Iver held the purple-black feather with mixed feelings, and a system panel appeared before his eyes:
Angel Shard—Shard of Corruption and Sin —The law of corruption and sin, the remnant of a Fallen Angel's power. If used appropriately, there was a chance of becoming a Fallen Angel or a Sin Angel.
There were only two short lines, but the information they contained was astonishing.
"...Are you ready, Viennes?"
Iver spoke softly as he summoned the Book of Law.
Of course.
Night Raven's voice rang out in Iver's mind.
Iver drew Night Raven's Great Sin Card from it and gradually brought the feather closer to the card.
The instant it touched the Great Sin Card, both erupted with purple radiance.
The transparent, amethyst-like card suddenly gained color, transforming into Viennes's form!
Yet Viennes now looked several years older than before, and her figure was far more mature.
Her hair was as black as ink, blending into the night sky.
