Serefina smirked as she tilted her head. "Did you know that the guardian angels were extinct not because they were too weak for war, but because they really must die in order to defeat the devils? Cruel, isn't it?"

"They have to die?" Raine frowned. "What do you mean they have to die?"

"That's exactly what I meant." Serefina gulped down the remaining liquid in her wine glass and stared at Raine. "Your death is needed to defeat those devils and something more evil that follows your resurrection. To say it bluntly, that is your true purpose."

Raine felt her throat became dry. "No. You lie to me." She shook her head and clutched the side of her dress.

"I am cruel, but I am not a liar." Serefina said in matter-of-fact tone. "I always tell you the truth. Search your memories and you will see I have never told you lies."
