"Who dares to interrupt me in my offerings to the Most High?!" the giant angel in front of us angrily asked, his voice echoing loudly through the hall.

Napa-atras ng kaunti ang mga Sky Rifts namin sa lakas ng boses ni Enochrydis at kinailangan pa namin kumapit ng mahigpit sa mga handle bars nito para kumalma ang mga ito. The whole giant hall was filled with the moderately strong wind burst of wind that came when Enochrydis flapped his wings in anger. It was as if the whole place felt the very presence of the transcended entity in front of us.

"Our Mentor, Enochrydis!" the leader of the Angels yelled back, as they were standing on the floor, just a hundred meters away from the Altar. "You have turned into a Hypocrite! In light, you do not dwell anymore! You boldly utter that you offer blessings and glory to the Most High. But you are found to be unrighteous; tainted with a mortal sin! Why must you still cling on to King Nagathom's control over your mind? Why you have not released Queen Ricaphia from her—"

"Silence!" the giant angel thundered, immediately stopping the lesser being from talking. "It is you who have strayed away from the light! You are all my disciples, and yet all chose to turn your backs against me! Nagathom was right when he has revealed your vile intentions!"

Enochrydis's voice echoed loudly in the giant hall loudly, shaking the very foundations and pillars of this place.

"We have justified ourselves before you in all the ages that have gone." the leader of the angels answered to Enochrydis. "Our loyalty is pledged to the Most High, and to you, our Mentor. But, you have chosen to listen to Nagathom's voice, and turned a deaf ear to us instead. If you won't listen to us, then consider the ones we have brought before your presence. The Wind Masters have returned, our Mentor. It is time to release Ricaphia—"

"Wind Masters?" malakas na tanong Enochrydis na nagputol sa sinasabi ng disipolo, at nakita ko kung paanong dahan-dahan kaming nilingon ng higanteng anghel na nasa harap.

Bigla akong kinabahan nang titigan kami ni Enochrydis. Kahit ba game lang ito, ang pakiramdam ay parang paparusahan kami ng anghel na ito ng walang dahilan. Plus, I noticed that unlike the green ones of the disciples, Enochrydis's seven health bars are all red, like during the time he appeared at the Regional Tournament.

Wait; does this mean that if we defeat him, his health bars will turn back into green? O sadyang kailangan lang siyang talunin talaga? That thought crossed my mind because of the fact that his "disciples" have green ones, meaning they're neutral.

Enochrydis turned his head vision back to his disciples. "You say that they... are the missing Wind Masters? But why are they devoid of any drop of Divinity? Why am I not intimidated by their presence? I can sense impurities reeking out of them."

Devoid of Divinity. Mismong si Enochrydis na ang nagsabi na hindi kami ang Wind Masters. Alam niyang hindi kami Divine Players. Ayaw pa maniwala ng mga disciples kanina no'ng sinabi namin na hindi kami ang Wind Masters na nabanggit sa Quest Scroll. Napamulagat ako ng kaunti nang bumalik ang tingin ni Enochrydis sa amin. But this time, I know that he's staring straight at me.

"... and this one also seems to be harboring some darker matter from within."

A chill ran down my spine when I heard Enochrydis faintly add to what he had said, while staring at me intently. What?! He can also sense the Ember Amulet with me? How can that be possible?
