[Would you like to sacrifice yourself?]
Yes or no
Sylus gawked at the screen for a while.
But not in a confused way; he fully understood what the system had told him.
To sacrifice probably meant to no longer exist in this world.
Two beings with the Catalyst star cannot exist at once.
One needed to go.
Sylus gulped down his saliva, and yet, he was somewhat calm.
His eyes shifted away from the screen and then toward the woman.
Right on time, he noticed Layla was beginning to make slight movements. She was waking up.
Sylus moved the screen to the side, taking slow steps toward her.
By the time he was close to the bed cage, he stopped, one hand in his pocket.
After a short while, Layla opened her eyes, her lips parting for a huge gasp, life slipping back into her body.
"Wh…"
The first thing she noticed was her hand chained to something. Secondly, the ground was covered in white fog, making it hard for her to see her own legs.
