"But, wasn't I in this position because of you guys? Being targeted by Ezekiel, wasn't it because I was helping you take care of the demons?"
I said to the bat person, and he couldn't look more sorry.
"The situation that is coming to us will make it impossible for us to even consider helping you. After all, we're not even sure if we can help ourselves in this matter.
What the Underworld will face is nothing like what you are facing. Because what we are facing will be an all out warfare that might just collapse the entire world of the Underworld."
Hearing his explanation, I was shocked. Next to me, I noticed Nico is also opening his eyes wide to that information, and I can't help but realize he was listening to the whole thing in silence.
I minded Nico no more and turned back to the bat person, and I nodded in understanding.
"In that case… I understand. I hope the Underworld can come out on top in the battles."
"Thank you, Elizabeth. That truly means a lot."
