Enoch and his partners started a fierce mid-air battle against Lucifer. Confined by Novalis and Ursula, Lucifer was unable to take the overwhelming power of Enoch, who had become strong enough to withstand Lucifer’s attacks. Eventually, Lucifer was defeated.
Enoch launched a massive attack which burned a hole on the wall. Lucifer was lying in the gravel and paralyzed. Enoch tapped Hong Ai on the shoulder, the latter then flew near Lucifer.
Enoch: Lucifer, it might be hard for you to believe, but the Saint that I know would never fall into despair and hatred because of others' betrayal.- Enoch: If he was alive now, I’m sure that he would still choose salvation. It’s his wish.
- Lucifer: …
Lucifer remained silent. Enoch had wanted to continue, but Ingrid placed her hand on his shoulder and shook her head.
Sorrowfully, Enoch had to give up and carry on his journey as Hong Ai flapped her wings and flew towards the top. Watching them as they left, mixed feelings churned inside of Lucifer.
- Lucifer: Was I wrong… Saint… You’ll never forgive me…
- ???: “No, he will, my best friend. He’ll understand you.”
- Lucifer: Is that so… Thank you… Michael…
Exhausted, Lucifer closed his eyes under the mellow light and sinked into a tranquil dream. However, Enoch and his partners fell in danger—
- Hong Ai: Urgh! What’s this! Let go of me!
- Enoch: Hong Ai!
- Ingrid: Tut! We’re caught! Everyone, brace your head!
When Hong Ai reached Nibiru, dozens of eerie tentacles extended from the city and grabbed Hong Ai’s head and limbs. She was pulled into the tower with immense strength—
Boom! Hong Ai and the others crashed into the wall inside, raising a cloud of dust and dirt.
Enoch stood up dizzily, only to find that something was pulling on his right hand— it was the tentacle which had seized hold of Hong Ai! Clenching Enoch’s hand, the tentacle wiggled as if it was sucking on something.
- Enoch: Urgh… My head aches… It’s trying to take away my consciousness!
- ???: Enoch, don’t move!
Enoch soon recognized who the melodious voice belonged to and followed her instructions. Then, as an elemental attack was launched, the tentacle seizing Enoch was eradicated.
- Enoch: Phew… Thank you, Ingrid… What about the others? Are they alright?
- Ingrid: I don’t know about the rest, this is the only one I found.
Ingrid lifted Hong Ai up as if she was picking up a cat. Now in her human form, Hong Ai’s body was covered with visible remnants of the tentacles. Her childlike face became exhausted with a pair of spiritless eyes..
- Hong Ai: Put… put me down… Blaargh…
- Ingrid: You’re useless!
Displeased, Ingrid eventually let her down. Hong Ai dashed to Enoch right away, hoping to get comforted. But before Enoch could say anything, they heard a shrill cry from the corridor.
- ???: Argh—！
- Enoch: That must be Ursula!
- Ingrid: Let’s go!
The three ran towards the corridor. Upon seeing what was in the corner, however, they pulled the brakes.
- Hong Ai: The walls have been turned into balls of flesh… and they’re moving…
- Ingrid: Something is eroding the Enochian Tower and Heaven…
- Enoch: Let’s find Ursula and Novalis first. They could be in danger.
Entering the fleshy corridor, Enoch soon found Ursula and Novalis.
- Enoch: Ah, there you are! Thank goodness you’re safe… Uh… Did something happen?
Observing the grim expression on Ursula’s and Novalis’ faces, Enoch asked with concern.
- Novalis: No, nothing. Now that you’re here, let’s get going—
- Ursula: No! I don’t want to go!
- Ingrid: … What happened?
- Ursula: My friends are trapped in that flesh ball on the ceiling!
All of them looked up and saw three massive flesh balls hanging above them. Two girls and a boy were trapped.
- Hong Ai: Ah! What is this! So disgusting!
- Ingrid: They must’ve been abducted by the tentacles. It looks like they’ll soon be fully absorbed.
- Ursula: No way! I have to save them! They’re my friends… Agatha and Barbara. As for the other boy, my Dracospirit tells me that he was implanted with the power of Dracospirits, just like us…
- Novalis: No, it’s too dangerous! What if we can’t save them, and we ourselves are swallowed too!
- Ursula: Are you telling me to turn away from this… I simply can’t!
- Novalis: But… I don’t want you to get hurt…
- Enoch: Then let us help.
- Novalis: ... But you have nothing to do with them…
- Enoch: As a mage from Starmage, of course I should help when someone is in need. Am I right, Ingrid?
- Ingrid: Sigh, I knew you’d do it. Always minding others’ business…
Ingrid might sound like she was complaining, but an energetic smile spread across her face.
- Ingrid: Let’s get rid of these disgusting creatures!

Hong Ai: Hey! Are you two dragons, just like me?
Ingrid: Don’t you worry. You’re dumb now anyway, it doesn’t make much difference if you get dumber.
Enoch: So… sorry. Hong Ai was a little insensitive, please forgive her.
Enoch: I prefer candidness to pretense. It’s perfectly natural that you don’t want to be my friend just yet, given that we just met each other not long ago in such a strange situation.
Hong Ai: To the top of the tower!
Enoch: Novalis… Thank you.
