Still inside the garage, the atmosphere was tense and heavy, though not as intense as what Vergil had just felt.
"Hm?" he questioned, tilting his head slightly as his eyes narrowed. Sapphire's demonic aura erupted like an uncontrollable storm, so intense it seemed to pierce through the barriers of space. Something was deeply wrong.
Vergil turned slowly to the three women accompanying him. Their expressions couldn't have been clearer: fear had completely overtaken them.
Katharina, usually so confident, now looked as pale as a ghost. Her gaze was fixed on some distant point, but it was evident her mind was processing something terrible. Ada, who typically used sarcasm as a shield, stood frozen, while Roxanne seemed to struggle to maintain her balance.
Vergil frowned. "You…" he began to speak, but was interrupted by Katharina's hesitant voice, the first to break the oppressive silence.
