Aine's Decision

She braced the attack and kept taking a step toward the purplish sphere. Each step she took, she felt part of her being obliterated bit by bit.

'I cannot go on like this; I already started forgetting almost all my childhood,' Aine's thought in her mind.

Her shoulders were now crunched down, her knees beginning to buckle under the weight.

Her hair was in disarray, but her pink eyes still looked forward, piercing through all hesitation she had.

"MALACAI! Order me to be your apostle!" She screamed with all her strength.

Somehow, Malacai could hear what she said. Outside, his eyes became purplish. He opened one of Aine's closed eyes and then ordered, "Become my apostle!"

Inside, the chains shot out from the purplish seal.

Aine used the opportunity. She took the chain by her hand, then used it to forcefully link herself to Malacai.

She did this by sending out her power, powering it through the chain as a medium.
