BOOM!!!
The grenade exploded with a violent bang inside the room, ripping through metal, bricks, and air in a deafening shockwave.
At the same time, Lilian and Sylvia had just arrived outside.
Earlier, when Shin realized the clone he'd enslaved was utterly useless, he did something desperate.
[As the Filthbound, I command my two NPC servants to come and help me fight!]
He hadn't even known if it would work.
But that was the gamble. Being Filthbound came with broken, chaotic perks other systems didn't even dare whisper about, like commanding NPCs, rewriting their codes, dragging them out of their programmed behavior.
And now, as the explosion echoed across the entire building, both Sylvia and Lilian's eyes snapped upward.
They'd heard the call, a divine message from "god" himself.
They were summoned.
