«WHAAAAAAAAT??????!!!!!!!!»
That's everyone's reaction.
But Shin has already explained to them about the new and terrifying power that Velshekar has gained—he now possesses the body of a semi-divine creature, a dark emissary.
Velshekar knows they're in Ashiya, and staying there is far too dangerous.
«If that demon were to show up here right now, none of you would even stand a chance of defeating him. You're way too weak compared to him—only Rika has a strength that might come close to Velshekar's, but even she would be defeated in the end. And since I fought him, his strength has only grown as he adapts to his new body. In other words, you have no chance of winning, even if you all fought together. Considering the state I'm in right now, I doubt it would change anything even if I fought with you. That's why we can't stay here another day.»
Those words spark quite a heated debate.
