Rewinding a minute, back to the moment after Jamie's Spatial-Destruction Shot had blown a hole through the chest of Bewússtsein's third body.
Bewússtsein lay sprawled across the ground, his wide eyes locked on the ruptured sky above.
He wasn't dead.
At least, not this body.
Its heart had been destroyed, but Bewússtsein's bodies weren't normal to begin with, so it wasn't surprising they could still function without something as vital as a heart.
'…what the hell just happened?'
His mind raced as he tried to process the turn of events.
The third body had been meant to act as bait, a diversion to keep the teenagers busy while his fourth and fifth bodies launched sneak attacks to finish them off.
Instead, a Demon King had appeared out of nowhere and destroyed both instantly.
'How the hell did he even get here? How did he find here?'
Bewússtsein's thoughts spun with disbelief.
He had verified everything over and over.
