"Who the hell are you?"
A goddess of a woman with flowing golden hair and sparkling ruby eyes stood across from Ryu. It could be said that the entire Ethereal Plane was up in arms. Not only had a human entered their territory unannounced, but he had even infiltrated the Cultus Empire.
"I think you know that already," Ryu said calmly, a smile pulling at his lips.
Ailsa's eyes narrowed.
"This isn't a place you can be. Leave, or else—."
"Or else?"
Ryu calmly pulled out a spear. Then, as though changing his mind, he opted for a single dagger instead. The common blade glistened beneath the sparkling rainbow clouds of the Ethereal Plane; it truly felt like a paradise on Earth.
