Eugene was filled with a variety of emotions.
He had seen Vermouth in his present state more than once, but this was the first time Eugene had come face-to-face with the true Vermouth.
Their meeting had come far too late.
Or at least, that was what Eugene thought.
Eugene felt that he should have already gotten the chance to face this bastard, Vermouth Lionheart, at least once before now, someway or somehow. As long as it was just once, no matter how short their meeting might be, they could have at least gotten the chance to talk.

Each time he took a step forward, Eugene could feel his consciousness wavering. He had finally managed to reach this place, but it wasn’t easy getting to the center where Vermouth was waiting.
It felt just like when he had first seen the Demon King of Destruction. Just the way that Demon King had been able to elicit feelings of despair and insanity by merely looking at it, just standing in this place was enough to bring up feelings of madness and despair.
However, Eugene was able to suppress those feelings. After all, this wasn’t his first time coming here. Back in the distant past, before the time when Eugene was Eugene, and even before he was Hamel, Agaroth, the God of War, had been here once...
