The journey to the surface was awkward. Dante walked with Ruby silently, and although Ruby had tried to console him many times, he never responded to her.
Seeing her caring about him so much because of the sigils only made him feel worse. Every soft smile, every whisper, and every act of hers were a psychological hell to his heart.
But eventually, Dante and Ruby reached the surface without any trouble. Although there were a few beasts, Dante had killed all of them with a single strike.
'Is that couple still not here?'
Dante suddenly remembered the real reason he was here to begin with. Back then, he was forced to run!
He had planned to lead them to a trap, using the vibration to lure as many beasts as possible to attack Beatrice's son and his wife.
But now, he didn't feel like he would need to do anything like that. He could likely overwhelm both of them with only his raw strength if they had to fight again.
