It was clear from the fact that he bound her with some sort of super strong rope that he had bad intentions, but this just hit the nail in the coffin.

"What do I have to do with this!? Your grudge is with Alex, not me!"

Mira was naturally angry and befuddled by how she was roped into this mess.

How the hell did she become the target of his revenge instead of Alex??

Things seemed too strange and twisted, it all made no such sense to her.

"You don\'t get it do you? What\'s the one thing other than himself that Alex actually cares about in this world?"

Nicholas seemed to be taking his time with whatever he had planned, as he didn\'t seem opposed to having this long discussion with Mira.

Many things came to mind for Mira after Nicholas asked that question.

But she realised what he was on about after a few seconds.

\'Me.\'

The \'thing\' Nicholas was talking about that was the most precious thing to Alex, was in fact herself.

Now she understood why Nicholas had chosen to do this to her.

But although she understood it, that didn\'t mean she was any less angry about it!

All of this was happening because of Nicholas\' stupid pride — the fact that he couldn\'t accept a loss to someone who was clearly more talented to him. It clearly struck a chord within him.

"You don\'t have to do this, you know. If you untie me right now, I\'ll consider us even. We can part ways and act like this never happened."

Mira tried to reason with him, but it was as if her words didn\'t even reach Nicholas\'s ears.

He had no reaction at all to her proposition.

\'This isn\'t good. He has to be in some sort of self imposed delusion or something…\'

Naturally, Mira knew things looked bleak for her.

The worst thing was the fact that she couldn\'t use her Golden Presence talent yet, as it was still only a few hours since she last used it.

She couldn\'t use it twice in such short succession, or else the cooldown period wouldn\'t just be her becoming fatigued, but becoming a dried up corpse!

The bonds were too strong to break either.

Realistically, she only saw one option for her to find an escape, but it was an option she really didn\'t like.

Call of the Void.

It would allow her to enter the Void dimension and escape her bindings, but this was a very, very last resort for her.

She would only use it if Nicholas intended on killing her, or defiling her body…

She still really wouldn\'t like using it though.

The memory of the last time she did against the Galephant was still fresh in her mind, and she wouldn\'t like to relive something like that again.

She would much rather face Nicholas\'s sinister revenge than face that entity in the Void dimension again…

After Mira had finished her thoughts, Nicholas stood up and slowly started walking over to her.

Blade still in hand.

His expression twisted with a malicious smile.

His movements were slow, deliberate as he walked towards her.

It was like he was doing his best to try and make her scared, but Mira had faced far more terrifying things than Nicholas\'s pitiful attempt to scare her.

She strained against her bindings, but they held strong, unbroken despite her best efforts.

The tension in the air was thick, suffocating even, as Nicholas finally reached her.

He knelt beside her, his face inches from hers, the cruel smile never leaving his lips.

"I\'ve waited for this moment," he murmured, his voice low.

"All that humiliation, the shame… it all comes down to this. I\'ll make sure Alex knows exactly what it feels like to lose something he cares about."

Mira\'s eyes narrowed, anger and rage warring within her.

"You\'re pathetic, Nicholas. You think this will make you stronger? This only shows how weak you really are."

Nicholas chuckled darkly, his breath hot against her ear.

"Say whatever you want. It won\'t change anything. In fact, I think I\'ll enjoy watching you die a slow, painful death. I only wish Alex were here to witness it."

With that, he pressed Mira\'s own cold, freshly sharpened blade against her arm, slowly dragging it across her skin.

The sharp edge bit against her skin, but it barely even brought a flinch out of Mira.

Blood welled up from the wound, trickling down in crimson streams.

Nicholas watched with sick satisfaction, as if he were admiring his handiwork.

"I\'ll make sure to make it extra slow and painful." He whispered, his voice almost gentle, as if he were speaking to a lover instead of someone he intended to kill.

It was quite creepy indeed, but Mira wasn\'t phased by it.

She knew she could get out at any time, she was just biding her time, waiting for the perfect opportunity.

She just hoped that when she used Call of the Void this time, she didn\'t encounter another being like that entity.

Or at least, if she did so, she was given the chance to leave the place before she was locked in place again.

The best case scenario for her would be that she didn\'t encounter anything at all, and she could carefully plan a stealthy revenge attack against Nicholas.

The only annoying thing was that he currently had her blade, so she\'d have to deliver her attack with brute force, which would take away a lot of her power.

With her blade, she could probably kill him in one go if aimed at the right spot, but with only her hands and legs to work with, she could only deliver a strike to him that would at most break a few bones.

\'Now!\'

But all of that deliberation would have to wait, as Mira had just spotted a perfect opportunity to escape her binds!
