weapon," he said confused. "I borrowed it," Will replied coolly. "Connor? What is happening here?" Emma asked uncertainly. Connor himself was able to calm her down. "Don't panic, Kevin won't be able to defeat Will. I assume you noticed that he is also wearing an amulet?" He asked. Emma nodded silently. "His amulet was made by hand. It is a combination of magic and science. It is stronger than the usual pendants, which is why Kevin will have a hard time," he explained. Emma didn't really understand. "The only ... thing that worries me is that Will has barely any combat experience," he reported. Emma was still reacting naively. "So what? Kevin won't hurt him. He'd never make an innocent

hurt. ", she said. Connor growled. He didn't dare to give Emma a slap, which is why he just shook her shoulders." Wake up! Kevin is over there, but not ours. He even says he's Hapi!The same thing happened to him as to Claire and Jas! ", he tried to make her clear. But Emma didn't want to hear the truth." Kevin is stronger than anyone I know! You ought to know that best! He will come to his senses again. "Emma seemed to remain optimistic. Connor didn't know what to think of it. He was already forced to fight Claire, and maybe he would soon have to fight a friend. Connor was experienced enough to know that he wouldn’t have any against Kevin." Had a chance. But did Will know that too? He didn't know Kevin, nor did he know his fighting style. Will now took a few steps back and also let a blade shoot out of his shield. Kevin was amazed. "You plagiarist. ", he didn't seem to take Will seriously." Kevin come back to you! ", Emma screamed pleadingly. Kevin looked in her direction. Emma was shocked because she had never looked at her boyfriend like this before." I already said Kevin is dead. Only Hapi remained. "he explained. But Emma didn't want to give up so easily." Think about Jas! What about him? Do you really have it ...? ", she stuttered. Kevin, or rather Hapi, grinned at her devilishly." I didn't kill him. That was Kevin. I am amazed that such a weakling should be able to kill one of the holy Patak. "he replied." That's over now! "demanded Will, who was now more serious." You don't hurt pretty girls, haven't you been taught that? ", he asked his counterpart. Kevin eyed him doubtfully." As you mean, let's fight then. "He suggested. Will nodded in agreement. Kevin's blade struck Will's shield, making a clanking noise. Will responded immediately, slamming his blade against Kevin's. That was what Kevin had hoped. One blow was enough to test Will's will. He was ready to fight, but not to kill Kevin. He wanted to use that to his advantage. ", Emma yelled at them in horror. Kevin's attacks became faster and more precise. Will resisted terribly, but he didn't want to kill Kevin. He had promised Emma to find Connor and Kevin and bring them back. He had succeeded with Connor, and also." Kevin stood across from him. Still he looked embarrassed for miles. Kevin pushed Will further and further back. Emma also detached herself from Connor's arms and stumbled backwards. Then she bumped into something. She turned around in a flash and looked into the face of a man. Startled stumbled She. Connor had not missed the newcomer either. Even Kevin stopped his attacks to examine the guy. "You are awake? ", he called to Mandulis. At first he couldn't answer. He looked finished. He had a long time

slept, and you could see it. He was still holding his wound and could barely stand on his feet. First he saw Emma and Connor. Why were his enemies here? Then he discovered Kevin struggling with a stranger.Mandulis remembered again. Kevin killed him. Or not? The environment did not resemble the underworld he had heard of. In a corner he saw Claire standing and concluded that he wasn't dead. Did he survive? If so, what was he doing in that place? "Claire!" Kevin called to her. His sister responded immediately. She pushed herself between Emma and Mandulis. Kevin activated his amulet. His weapons and all defenses disappeared. He had to use a lot of energy. He, Claire and Mandulis now dissolved into nothing. "No!" Will cursed. "Where did you go?" Emma asked confused.

In reality, Kevin, Claire, and Mandulis hadn't left the room. From their point of view, Will, Connor and Emma were gone. Kevin quickly started to explain. "We have to think about further steps. I have taken us to another dimension. I will not give up this base. When the three have disappeared, we will return to our phase." Mandulis looked at him in disbelief. "Indeed. I seem to have missed a lot. You actually joined us, Hapi!" He said happily. Kevin held out his blade to him, which gave Mandulis a terrible shock. "To be clear. I think you crazy. Kevin was right. You think you're Baal and you can't even fight right now. I'm just leaving you alive for one reason. You may have information that could be of use to us. Me I'm going to lead the holy Patak into battle, not you. Besides, I'll finish the Revival project. If you do anything that endangers the project or the Patak, I'll kill you. Do you understand? "Kevin asked angrily . Mandulis swallowed. He hadn't expected such a turnaround from Kevin. "I am. Don't worry, our goal is the same. I will help you to bring back the old gods. The people of this world live in chaos and disorder. It is time that they got a guidance again.", He said euphoric.
While Emma stood helpless, Connor and Will systematically combed the rooms. No sign of Kevin, Claire or Mandulis. "They are gone.", Connor said sullenly. "But why?" Will not quite understood. "They were in the majority, why didn't they take their chance and knock us down?" Connor had no answer. Will walked over to Emma and tried to cheer her up. "At least we now know that Kevin is alive," he told her. She looked at him coldly. "But he is no longer himself.", She pointed out. Will seemed more optimistic too

be. "That's true, but he'll come to!" He said. Emma wasn't so sure. "That didn't work for Jas either ..."
Will and Connor had driven Emma home for now. Under no circumstances did she want to go back to the hospital. Will wanted to stay with her, but Connor talked him out of it.He wanted to talk to him about a few things. Will accompanied his cousin to his apartment, where he collapsed on the couch, exhausted. "I hope you have beer there.", He called to Connor. He grinned and stumbled to the refrigerator. He took out a bottle, grabbed two glasses, and sat down next to Will. Will drank, but then pulled a face. "How old is the beer?" He asked with a snort. Connor apologized and said that he was no longer in his apartment.
