"Sorrow" and "Longing"
"----"
When Tiamat's gaze locked onto Luo Zhen, the surrounding space seemed to solidify. The atmosphere grew heavy and oppressive.
The sense of danger in Luo Zhen's heart rose sharply. His haori stirred without any wind, billowing up like a cloak to shield him from the front.
The next second...
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa----!!!"
A familiar singing voice burst from the goddess below.
While observing the Black Sea with Mind's Eye, Luo Zhen had heard this singing voice as well.
But this time, facing the singing directly, Luo Zhen finally realized just how vicious it truly was.
"Boom!!!"
The singing seemed to transform into waves of sound, kicking up a storm and shaking the atmosphere.
Wave after wave churned across the sea, and the shock waves from the singing reached Luo Zhen and Ishtar.
"Ugh!"
"What...!?"
Luo Zhen and Ishtar were both caught off guard. Like they had been hit by a typhoon several levels stronger than normal, they were blown away.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa----!!!"
Tiamat continued to sing, raising wave after wave of sound and seawater with frightening momentum.
In an instant, the entire ocean seemed to have been caught in a storm, becoming turbulent and violent.
"You've got to be kidding me!?"
Ishtar flew into the sky to evade the incoming hurricanes, staring at the scene in utter shock.
"Just her voice is enough to cause such a massive physical phenomenon!?"
"This is way too powerful, isn't it!?"
"Th-this is the Beast of Original Sin...?"
Olga Marie, Da Vinci, and Roman trembled as they watched the scene from Chaldea.
Only Luo Zhen, soaring into the sky with Ishtar, continued staring at Tiamat with his brows tightly furrowed.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa----!!!"
Tiamat continued singing.
Yet for some reason, Luo Zhen heard an undercurrent of sorrow in that terrifyingly powerful voice.
