"You damned brats!"
Shūichirō Keidō was nearly mad with rage. He had been so close to succeeding, only for these brats he looked down on to ruin everything!

Turning back to the Divine Consciousness Gravekeeper, Lin Guang met his gaze. Tension filled the air between them, and a small piece of ice slowly appeared on the Divine Consciousness Gravekeeper's face.
"Lin Guang, you're interesting, but I don't want
