Karlia was locked in an endless swirl of emotions.

Her heart constantly raced anytime she saw Jared—no, Lewis Griffith in Jared's body.

He seemed surprised that she would be able to recognize him despite his new form, but that was simply underestimating her sensory abilities. Since their Souls were linked by her Original Magic, Karlia could tell the moment she looked at him.

Even though the bond wasn't as strong as a Soul Brand, the moment he appeared in front of her, she could instantly tell.

'I-I can't believe this! H-he's alive?!' Her heart was racing at an unbelievable speed.

Through the years—for over five centuries—she had sought ways to bring him back, yet here Lewis was, right in front of her.

'Oh, no! He must think I'm his enemy! I'm in the Nether Cult, and I even wanted us to kill Jared because he was troublesome!' Her thoughts suddenly surged.

How was she going to explain her way out of this mess?

"Lewis, I—"

Unfortunately, her words were interrupted by the arrival of the First Seat.

The moment she saw him, she realized her blunder… as well as what was to come. The only reason for the Martial Blade to come was for Jared's execution.

Normally, she would have allowed it—no, even supported it. After all, Jared was one huge stumbling block that stood between her and her dream.

However, now that she discovered Jared was Lewis, what would she do? Was she going to watch the Martial Blade God execute the only person she ever loved? Or was she going to save him?

'He's still confused. He probably has some weird perception of me. I… I…'

Betraying the Cult was something she never wanted to do—especially because of her goals. But, her cooperation so far only hinged on one reason. And now the reason was in front of her.

Did it really have to take her so long to decide?

'NO! I'm not letting you near him!' Her thoughts echoed, and her bloodlust began to manifest—focused only on the Martial Blade God.

She knew she was courting death with her actions, but Karlia's thoughts were only centered around one thing. That single thing was enough to conquer the fear and reverence she had for her senior.

'Lewis is mine!'

"Don't look at Karlia that way!"

The eyes of the succubus widened the moment she heard those words from Jared/Lewis.

'H-he's… not mad at me?' Her heart thumped louder than before, and her whole body became hotter by the second.

She could see the resolve in his eyes as he stood up for her. It was similar to the one in her eyes. For that moment alone, despite their confusion and mixed emotions, Karlia could feel the connection between the both of them restored.

They had become one!

"I see. So, you've chosen to side with each other. I don't blame you for your choice. However, do you really believe this changes anything?" The Martial Blade God asked, his eyes narrowed as he exchanged glances between her and the one she recognized as Lewis.

Serah was out of the equation, but she was most likely going to be dealt with after the Martial Blade God was done with them.

'I already mad my peace with this a long time ago…' Karlia thought to herself as she took a deep breath in.

The Martial Blade God was standing right between her and her goal. And there was only one thing she could do to get back her lover.

"... I don't care if the world burns as a result—and the same applies to the Nether Cult!'
