Enemies Appeared

"Even if you didn't know who sent you here, you should know what you had to do here, right?" Sovereign's calm voice echoed in the hall.

Apollo remained silent for a second and then said his mission, "I came here to save Black Lotus Flame." He told the truth, although it was ridiculous, as how could he save it as it was Black Sovereign's true form and natal Flame?

This task is fucked up; he already had what can be done by alerting the Sovereign, as if even with his strength he cannot save himself, then nothing can be done in front of an absolute strength difference.

The hall fell into an eerie silence.

The Black Flame Sovereign didn't immediately react, but the flames in his eyes darkened—like the embers of a dying star collapsing into itself.

"Save my Black Lotus Flame?" His voice didn't carry any hint of anger or any emotion but was still calm, with a hint of relief.

"I see, so that's what was going on."
