update icon Updated at 2025/8/8 16:10:12

234,

During the fierce battle between Cyclone and Yuna, on the other side, above the Spiral Maze, something else was happening.

With the collapse of the Tower of Lust, a new piece of land had emerged beneath the valley.

Little Dragon and Eileen were searching on this new land, searching for the man who had foolishly jumped off for another woman.

Unexpectedly, despite their complaints, both of them were filled with worry.

"Big sister Little Dragon... Could my husband be..."

"Don't ask."

"For that sorceress, my husband..."

"Don't think."

Little Dragon quickly stopped Eileen's two questions.

"You know what kind of person he is, don't you?"

Glancing around from a slightly higher rock, Little Dragon asked Eileen.

"...I do."

After confirming Eileen's response matched her own calculations, Little Dragon continued.

"From the moment I decided to follow him, I knew he would continue to meet other women everywhere..."

Little Dragon answered with certainty, and as she spoke, a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.

That's Cyclone for you! The Cyclone I know is a man who would hold on tight even if it meant dying.

In Little Dragon's heart, that was the kind of person Cyclone was.

He didn't carry any weapons and would follow her to dangerous places, even risking his own life to save her.

Little Dragon jumped back in front of Eileen and continued speaking.

"For me, who has lost everything, Cyclone has given me a new family, new loved ones. Eileen..."

Eileen looked up at Little Dragon.

"Are we... not family then?"

In response to Little Dragon's question, Eileen nodded helplessly.

"Of course we are! But... it seems like Eileen's family is only going to get larger."

Nodding helplessly, she responded in the same manner.

Because both of them knew what kind of person their husband was.

Cyclone would risk his life for the person he loved.

Time flew by, and on the collapsing land, the two continued to search until a small white snake approached them.

"Still searching?"

The voice belonged to the man both of them were familiar with, the mastermind behind this war, Daniel.

"Say it."

Little Dragon continued flipping over the stones, urging Daniel to get to the point.

"We have taken over the Tower of Greed. The forces in the south are gathering for the final battle tomorrow at noon."

"...But we still have to continue searching."

"Listen to me first. Do you know why we took over the Tower of Greed so easily?"

"We don't have the mood to guess!"

Little Dragon was tired of Daniel's teasing tone, which reminded her of Cyclone's straightforward behavior that kept coming to mind.

"This is related to Brother Cyclone. Outside the encircling net, specifically at the edge of this Desolation Mountain, we captured a female demon."

Eileen and Little Dragon stood still, holding the stones in their hands, as they listened to Daniel's report. "According to the reports, Greed has been killed, just like the Greed Tower in the empty city, and it is said that the person who killed Greed is Allen's hero."

"......"

Little Dragon was first stunned, as she had witnessed Greed's power, the powerful summoning beast that was undoubtedly Greed's masterpiece. However, soon enough, her heart found a hint of comfort. Because her beloved had not died.

"So, did they find my husband?" Eileen anxiously asked.

"No, the person who entered the maze from the periphery has not found Brother Cyclone... And... there is no news of the witch either."

"......"

No one responded to Daniel.

"If he is still alive, and the witch is with him... then he should only go to one place now..."

The air became heavy, and the question lingered in everyone's mind - where had the disappeared hero gone?

An answer appeared in Little Dragon's heart, but she didn't want to say it out loud.

"Seven Sins City..."
