End of the Synder Empire

Blake sat in silence with his gaze pinned on Azkelwart who drank his tea in silence. As soon as he had emptied the content of his teacup, Azkelwart put the cup aside and turned his attention to Blake.

"Becoming the All-Father," He responded to Blake's question.

"What?!" Blake exclaimed in shock as he couldn't believe his ears.

Blake's body jolted in shock as soon as he heard those words. His mind was prepared for numerous possible responses, but never did it cross his mind this would be Azkelwart's answer to his question.

"We have only one chance to do it, so we have to make it count," Azkelwart said, seemingly completely unaware of the turmoil in Blake's mind.

"Doesn't that mean…" Blake's eyebrows furrowed as he spoke, but Azkelwart cut him off.

"Cassius will relinquish his role as the all-father when the time comes, so you don't have to worry about him," Azkelwart chuckled since he understood Blake's worries.
