Ezra's body was laying in the room with a hole in its chest, Lucifer looked down at it before swinging his fist behind him calling for the presence of a Principle.

"Azazel, the next step in our plan shall commence, take Ezra's body away." Azazel nods and follows his command diligently.

"Travel back and inform the rest of the Principles, i will stay, i have unfinished bussiness here." Lucifer stands by the golden chair around a rectagular meeting table with a sorrowful expression.

"Yuta was slain, i cannot feel his presence anymore." Azazel looks, away hearing Lucifer's words and simply jumps out of a window to walk away.

Lucifer grips the arm of the chair while gritting his teeth in anger but calms down shortly after, "Yuta couldn't stop Ezra's subordinate, how troublesome... Forgive me, son..."

Johan stands in the field of the forest among many cut trees, standing next to the body of his clone and Yuta who had started dissapearing into ash.

'I have to keep moving... Head... For the mountains'

Rain slowly starts falling all around Johan, searing Yuta and accelerating the disintegration but Johan still walks away not minding it at all.

'The rain is just a minor setback, i should look for a village to buy a map...' Johan begins to slowly walk forward in a random direction until he sees a few houses and a small village of people.

The rain intesifies and the muddy roads of the village make Johan disgusted as he tries to walk past them, but walks into deeper mud as he walks past.

He catches a few strange gazes when walking into a map shop and in the shop, the shopkeeper is visibly confused but hands him a map regardless.

"Say, sir, are you of the nobility?" The shop keeper asks, impatiently waiting for an answer.

"You could say that, although i wish not to be associated with them." Johan says with an unwavering gaze.

"Ah, i see..." The shopkeeper hands him a map and Johan slowly starts leaving into the storm outside.

"Sir, do you need a coat? The storm with destroy your map if you go out like that." Johan nods and the shop keeper hands him a coat and a round hat before Johan finally leaves.

Once he leaves he is met with even fiercer rain and even lightning flashing in the distance, he sighs and carefully walks through the deep mud.

He looks at the map from under his coat as to not get it wet and sees a mountain village nearby, he looks forward with a slight smirk on his face and a small chuckle.

'Not only did Ezra give me his memories he gave me his mind as well... He really trust me too much... Why does he think i'm going to revive him? What made him think that? And why do i have this sudden feeling of wishing to revive him? Is it another spell? I have so many questions... Just what are you planning, you young mastermind?'

Many hours later, Johan finally finds himself at the foot of the mountain, the mountain seems to seperate one half of Seelvia from the other, it is filled with dense forests as far as the eye can see.

The rain clouds clear up after the rain, making the forest easier to traverse as Johan enters the see of trees calmly lit by the moon's silver glow.

He continues walking onward with some fear clenching his gut until he hears a bustling town closely nearby, he sees light shine through the trees so he follows slowly and fearfully until he arrived at the town's gates.

The gates are almost ceremonious-looking, like a festival were happening at the very moment, Johan's adrenaline rushes, his excitement and curiousity grows further as he walks through the already open gates.

'What the hell is this? Some type of festival?' He looks around in confusion with some happiness filling his face, he thinks on continuing his journey but stops due to hunger and fatigue.

'Maybe i should enjoy myself? I have some money after all.' He looks around and waltzes into a bar, many people look at him like a demon had just walked in.

He steps up to the front counter and order a drink.

"Um... You look to young for this, boy..." Says the bartender.

Johan looks pale in the face, like the bartender had just killed his family, "what...?" He tries to put on a tough facade but holds back tears.

"It'll be fine, he looks old enough to me." Says a man sitting by a table, Johan notices a sword beside him but says nothing.

"B- but..."

"No buts, I said he looks old enough. Now, give him a drink." The man looks with a sinister expression.

The bartender complies in fear and hastily hands Johan a drink.

The man signs for Johan to sit next to him on a table surrounded by other men and Johan complies as well without question.

"Um... Thank you... For helping me..."

"No need to thank me, i can feel you're quite shy and sensible despite the persona you put up externally" The man Chuckles to himself, "my name Qiang Jin, i have lived in Archos for some time before moving here on my travels."

"Archos? The land of eternal autumn?" Johan says.

"Exactly! You're quite knowledgeable for someone so young!" Qiang speaks in low tone, keeping his eyes constantly closed.

Johan notices his eyes are closed but says nothing again, "i'm Johan, it is nice to meet you!" Johan smiles warmly.

"Great to meet you Johan! You deserve a spot on my adventure team!"
