Chapter LXXII

The Kilendian scout gasped in disbelief, the Demonian battalion that was coming to attack their fortress had been completely wiped out. He look upon the scene as the setting sun poured onto the desert ground. He had arrived just as the massacre was finishing. The killer of all the demons stood in the middle of the sea of dead bodies, clutching the demon general by it's throat. His long white hair was moving along with the desert wind, and with a shake of his head, he snapped the general's neck and flung him away.

The sun disappeared from the horizon as the killer turned to face the scout, his brilliant blue eyes piercing into the scout. The scout took in a deep breath, frozen in fear. However, the killer faded into oblivion.

"....Tien isn't dead." the scout muttered.

"There is no way that can be Tien." Zans said. "We know for sure."

Zen nodded as they stood in front of Tien's grave, his magically preserved body laid in front of them in a crystal coffin. His face at peace and smiling.

"It has to be an imposter." Zen said.

"Of course. However, that imposter is really strong." Jaens said from afar, approaching the brothers. "We may have to consider that this Tien in front of us isn't a highly powerful clone who Tien made for this very purpose."

"We have to head out now." Nika said, appearing out of thin air suddenly. "Shadow just paged our unit."

"Shadow is calling an elite unit out?" Jaens asked.

"It's for an escort and protect assignment." Nika briefed the team. "All of us are to go. There is a few grade S2 d.mage there, so we are to exercise caution."

"I'll go too." A female voice said behind Nika.

Nika turned and faced Eva, who had just conjured her ANGELS gear out.

"Let's go." She said.
