Chapter 44 - Chapter 44: Failure

Meanwhile, Back at the hotel a flame doorway opens up in the hallway as Testarossa walks through it. Her eyes widened as she noticed only a handful of human survivors. While walking through the hallway, Kaya came up to Testarossa and told her, "I must return to the Underworld; there's something that I need to look into." A portal covered in blood opens up, and before Kaya walked through it, she said, "Keep an eye on that Kairi; something is odd about her." Before she could reply, the portal closed. As Testarossa entered the medical room. She noticed Nova, Natasha and Kairi all resting on medical beds. Agera slithered out of the testa jacket while he felt a familiar presence around them. He slithered his way over to Nova's body and spoke in a confused tone, "How is this possible?" While Testarossa was looking forwards, she quietly left the room. Testarossa crossed her arms and had a dumbfounded expression. Agera and Vritra both came out of her jacket and said, "We know you're worried about her; we will check up on the rest of them and then go see her." As both serpents slithered off in opposite directions, Testarossa walked up to a door that was right at the end of the hallway. She opened the door slowly as it made scratching sounds on the floor. While walking through the room, she noticed a bunch of underwear and clothes all over the floor. A cold shiver went down Testa's spine as she felt like the atmosphere in this room had been altered. While Testarossa was deep in thoughts, she heard a familiar voice: "Hey, are you done looking around?" She reacted quickly as her eyes locked with Jade's, who was sitting on a table in her nightwear. Testa looked at her in shock while saying, "What happened?" Jade told her everything that happened while she was in the Underworld. As Testarossa was shocked, she still had a worrying expression on her face as she touched Jade's shoulder, and a gentle flame came out of her fingertips. As her eyes suddenly widened, she took a few steps back before saying, "Your magical circuits are completely gone." Jade looked sad before speaking. "Yes, after everything happened, humanity lost faith in their guardian, so my circuits started to disappear. I only have enough mana left for one battle." While Testarossa had a worried expression, she began to feel guilty and said, "It's my fault; I was away for too long, and you had to pay the price. I am sorry." Jade grabbed Testarossa's shoulders before hugging and saying, "What's done is done; you can't change the past. The mixture between the sin of sloth and loss of faith – I knew something like this would happen. Don't beat yourselfup about it." Testarossa felt happy, and before leaving the room, she grabbed Jade's head and kissed her while saying, "I will do my best to find a replacement for your circuits. For now, remain here until the Sin of Sloth effects are off." As the door closes, a massive bang sound shakes the hotel. Swiftly, Testarossa headed to the location of the sound and noticed Kamiya on the floor, battered and on the verge of death. With the last bit of strength, she grabbed Testarossa's jacket and said, "The chaos dragon is coming..." Kamiya fell unconscious as Testarossa took her to the medical room; she sat in deep thought. Contemplating if she should go confront this dragon, Nicole gently grabbed Testarossa's shoulder and said, "I will handle it; you remain here." Before the tests could speak, Nicole vanished at the speed of light.
