Ethan Cruz had to make preparations on two fronts in order to lure in and kill Lee Shin-Woo.

First, he needed to make sure the battle progressed a certain way so that Retadane and the other heroes wouldn't be able to easily escape the battlefield. This part wasn't very difficult. All he needed to do was wait for the right moment.

Second, he had to create the right environment. He would have to go through a lot of trouble to hide what he was doing from the other heroes. Ethan Cruz had formed a sort of visual barrier that would prevent any outsiders from seeing them while also weakening the goddess’s authority within, thus denying access to chatroom and private chat.

This was all done in advance so that no matter how much Lee Shin-Woo screamed, no one would be able to hear him. With the secret activation of a magical device as well as his own magic, the space was cut off from the outside, forming a complete barrier.

Unfortunately, the effects would apply to him as well.

"How did you summon so many undead..."

"I told you, I have no idea what you're talking about. Why do you keep asking me?"

Lee Shin-Woo acted innocent, while Ethan Cruz broke into a cold sweat....
