747 Invitation to The Council

In the tower, Olly and Lord Elliot stared at Kiba. 

"Are you alright?" Lord Elliot asked. 

"Ah yes," Kiba opened his eyes and replied. "I felt unwell for a second, but now I'm good."

The sudden surge of power he felt from the Cosmic Spark disappeared in just a minute. So he concluded that Spark must have leaked energy due to some disturbance.

Alas, the reason was different. 

His clone created by the Cuckold Union was back to sleep. So its connection with the Cosmic Spark closed as there wasn't any power demand.

"That's good to hear," Lord Elliot smiled. 

On the side, Olly bitterly smiled. 

No, it wasn't good.

When he saw Kiba's abrupt change in complexion, he had felt a brief moment of hope. Now it was crushed... again! 

"The Creator must be having fun at my expense." 

Olly realized that fate enjoyed giving him false hope.
