Chapter 2455: Preparing For The Worst
My Vampire System

As expected, the golden warriors had ended up coming out of the Shadow space. They weren't released by Minny or Galen, instead they had forced their way out. After seeing how much power their attacks contained, it honestly didn't come as much of a huge surprise.

When they came out, not seeing their partners, Layla was expecting some type of reaction from them, but they seemed to not care. Focusing on those below, almost immediately they started to fire golden shots out of the palm of their hands at the others.

"Just keep them busy… I'll do the same again when I can!" Layla shouted.

She jumped back and Galen continued to stay by his mother's side. He had a serious look on his face, determined to stop anything that was going to come her way.

"Don't worry, I block attacks!" Galen proudly declared, thumbing his chest.

"You are a brave boy, huh, I wonder who you take after." Layla replied, as she did her best to recover and continued to watch the others.

The golden beings were still incredibly fast, it was impossible for the others to get a hit on them. Even with Minny and her speed, she struggled, and a couple of times she and Andy tried to corner one. Predicting where it would move, but the area was just too large for them.

After some time though, Layla placed her hand on the ground, and started to summon the black balls from the ground. There were multiple all over the place, and using her telekinesis power she could aim them carefully, spreading them out on the field.

'It's a good thing these guys are quite big, which means...' Just as she had this thought, one of the golden beings had hit one of the balls and a spiritual chain had restricted it.

In that moment, Layla moved all of the other balls to the being. With the spiritual chains, it was unable to move, allowing all of the others to bombard it with attacks. As it was hit, it just burst into golden dust just like the dark beings did.

Now, there was only one left. It was a rinse and repeat, but everyone was confident they could now deal with the situation, and they were right as the last one had eventually been taken care of.

There were no more Divine beings on the field. Layla, Andy, Jessica, and the rest, each one of them were completely exhausted from the fight.

They all slowly moved to the center as they started to gather their energy.

"What just happened, what were those things, and who was that guy pretending to be Sin?" Valnar asked.

"I… I really aren't too sure." Layla replied.n0.0

Muka, and Xander were seen coming over. They had been busy trying to control the crowd. Most had gotten away, but unfortunately there were a few vampires that had been caught in the crossfire.

"What I don't understand was their aim." Andy said. "Why did they aim to attack the crowd? Surely they would have targeted us? Why would they just try to kill regular vampires."

No one answered, because no one knew the answer, but Layla was thinking about the situation. The beings that had appeared themselves weren't hard to defeat. They had strong attack power, but with their strength, they could finish them off relatively quickly.

Still, perhaps the ordinary vampires wouldn't be able to deal with them. At least vampires at the leader or a group of vampire knights would have to be used. The main issue though, was when the beings were together.

With the golden ones able to heal the black ones, it made them almost impossible to kill.

'Thankfully, Minny and Galen were able to use their shadow powers to trap them.' Layla thought. 'If they weren't present then would we even have been able to take the four of them out?'

That wasn't the only fear, what if there were more than four of them. Only Minny and Galen had the shadow power. It wasn't as if they had Quinn to help them out either.

With everything that had occurred, it was hard for the vampires that had visited to take away the positive from the event. In order to calm their nerves a bit, the Graylash vampires as well as the Vampire Corps stayed at the vampire settlement for a while longer.

Andy, and Valnar stated that they should help each other, help them rebuild the arena for future events and continue to enjoy the culture of where they had all originally come from.

In the meantime, around the whole settlement, they would continue to show clips of the event, before the large attack. People were reminded of the fun they had, and many of the clips showed Minny and her skills as well, practically making her a little star.

Of course, it wasn't only her but many also saw the feats of Galen as well, but his face didn't appear too much. As time went on, they did realize that it was an odd occurrence that had happened.

The vampire settlement was extremely safe. There were next to no problems even within, which they couldn't say the same for their groups.

Vampires would often bicker and argue about what the right thing to do was, as situations to do with the humans they lived nearby would appear. A lot of vampires didn't want to admit it, especially those from the Graylash planets, but a life with no humans, away from the others, caused a lot less problems.

It was a tough pill to swallow as they wanted to feel like they were the same, and could live side by side, and now they were seeing another solution to the problem.

After a couple of days had passed, a meeting had been called. They were using the leader's table placed at the back of the main castle in the large grand garden.

Muka and Layla were present representing the vampire settlement, Andy and Jessica for the Vampire Corps, and Valnar and an older vampire named Stripson, apparently another member of the Graylash community that hadn't been there originally for the event.

"Stripson has some news." Valanr declared.

"The original Sin is dead." Stripson announced. "We managed to find the remains of his blood. We have a rough idea of when the person had decided to disguise themselves. Due to the timing, we can only assume that their goal was always the event."

"But why?" Jessica asked. "It wasn't as if anything big was going on at the event, and what did they get out of summoning those things?"

"I believe it was the same individual that tried to infiltrate the event before." Layla announced. "I caught them last time, and they said that they were here to talk to Quinn, but I guess that's a lie."

"Wait, talk to Quinn?" Andy interjected. "The guy, he did seem to ask a lot of questions about Quinn. He was asking what he was doing and where he was."

Layla thought about it. She thought that the case might have something to do with Immortui, but it didn't feel like his style. This was completely different from how he had acted.

Not only that, but why Quinn? It couldn't have actually been the god Yongbu wanting to talk to him. That now seemed like a complete lie, so what were they aiming for, and why was Quinn a big deal?

"I'm worried," Layla said out loud. "Whatever they wanted, they might have gotten it this time, and they left us a taste of what's in store."

"Do you think they wanted to know whether Quinn was away or not so they could launch an attack?" Muka guessed. "If they now know he's not here for certain and unleashed a number of those things, it would spell trouble for us all."

"I'm not too sure about that." Layla was thinking back to the deal Quinn had stated he had made. Would they go back on it? A thought had entered her mind that maybe she should try and contact these gods.

There was a chance that they didn't know what others were doing, and in Quinn's absence, they would come to their aid if it was the case. But if it wasn't, then it would be a risky move that would bring their doom even closer.

"For now, I think that we should all just prepare. I don't know who, I don't know what, but I have a bad feeling about all of this. I think everyone, vampires in every location, should prepare for the worst. That way, we can save as many lives as possible."

'Quinn… how much longer are you going to be… I hope you're safe.'

    Chapter—2471:
    A meeting from the past.

    After running around in a dense fog for who knew how long, nothing had changed for Quinn. Since he was unable to use his powers as well, he was almost sure he was in some type of dream or the afterlife.

    That was until he heard a voice.

    - Who said that? - Quinn shouted back.

    It was a voice that was familiar to him but he couldn't quite pinpoint just who it was.

    - I've been waiting for you for a long time. In fact, it's not just me, there are a lot of people waiting for you, but not all of them seem to be so kind.

    Trying to track where the voice was coming from was almost impossible, even with Quinn's super hearing. It was echoing all over the place, but what was bugging him more than anything was the fact that the voice felt familiar to him.

    The fog started to swirl around, gathering in a certain area, and a human figure was starting to appear. Finally, his full body was in view.

    - That was a lot harder than I thought it would be.

    - It's you. - Quinn said with a twang in his voice, confused.

    - But aren't you dead? Does that mean I'm really dead?

    - If that's the case, then what about Layla? What about the others? What happened to them? Are they okay?

    There was no answer, infuriating Quinn and causing him to panic even more.

    - Answer me, Paul! - Quinn shouted.

    The figure that had appeared in front of Quinn was none other than Paul Sneallart. He was a person from Quinn's past but had played a large part in his life. In charge of one of the military bases where the students would go through, and one of those students being Quinn.

    He had been then placed in charge of an assault on the Vampire settlement. It ended in failure as he was captured, striking a deal he had been turned into a vampire along with the soldiers he had brought with him.

    Looking back at it, the soldiers were what had eventually become the vampire corps, but as for Paul himself, he had met his end, trying to protect Kazz from Laxmus.

    - I don't know the current situation, Quinn! - Paul eventually answered.

    - For me, it has been the same since that day, the day I suffered from Laxmus's blood breath. It has felt as if only a few moments have passed since then. There is one thing that I can tell you for sure, you are not dead, I can feel it; your body is not present here.

    The answer hadn't helped Quinn figure out where he was, but it did allow him to settle down a little.

    - Is this something that Immortui has done, making me meet with the dead? - Quinn thought, since he was a celestial that was closely linked with death.

    - I wanted to ask you, Quinn, did you figure out what it means to be a leader? - Paul asked.

    - In the past, you had criticized many of the decisions I had made. I had explained to you why I did what I did. I assume you've been through a lot since my passing.

    The world that Quinn grew up in wasn't a great one at all. Those that had naturally weaker abilities were treated like trash, while those that were strong were glorified. The military seemed to care about nothing else at the time.

    They would threaten with Jack Truedream's power and even held people captive that they deemed were too. dangerous.

    - I've lost a lot, in the position I'm in. - Quinn answered.

    - I had to make difficult choices that resulted in the death of others. A lot of deaths, I feel like could have been prevented... but maybe more would have taken place if I didn't do those things.

    - I learned that when you're in that position, you do what you think is right at the time, and as long as you are sticking to that, can we really say it was a bad decision? I understand why you did what you did back then. I might not approve of it, but I can see you did it with good intentions.

    If Quinn's eyes weren't tricking him, he could have sworn he saw a smile on Paul's face.

    - I don't regret what I have done either. - Paul said.

    - Including sacrificing my life for that girl.

    If Paul's current memories were of right when he died, then he would have had no clue that Kazz had died shortly after. Quinn decided to keep this to himself.

    - You still have a promise to keep, young boy. - Paul said.

    The promise Quinn had made with not just Paul but the vampire soldiers that no longer existed, he remembered it well. It was something that he never forgot.

    - I'm working on it, it might be the reason why I'm here. - Quinn laughed.

    Paul started to walk over to Quinn, and the two of them stood facing each other.

    - I don't know why, Quinn, but I know what it is that I need to do next, and what is going to happen to you. Maybe it's because I'm the first in this world.

    - For me to leave this place, I'm going to touch you, and when I do, all of the pain that I experienced from my last moments will be passed onto you. Are you ready?

    It was quite possible that Quinn was being tricked right now, but it felt like the real Paul was in front of him, and there was nothing else in the space. If this was the way to move forward, then he needed to make a decision.

    Giving a nod, Paul placed his hands on Quinn's shoulder. Almost immediately, Quinn felt a searing pain all over his skin. It felt like he was being microwaved from the outside and inside.

    - ARGHHH!! - Quinn screamed at the top of his lungs as his body was shaking violently.

    It wasn't just pain on the level where it would enter Quinn. This was exactly Paul's pain. It was the level of pain he felt when he was being incinerated by Immortui's power.

    However, for Quinn, that wasn't the worst part. Tears were falling down his face and evaporating, flashes of anger were entering his mind, sorrow, and more. A mix and wave of different emotions were being bombarded into his head.

    - This... this is everything that Paul felt at the end of his life... I wish... I wish I could have saved him.

    Eventually, the pain had come to an end, and when it did, he opened his eyes, and Paul's body was disappearing into mist to join the fog again.

    - Quinn, it looks like there are a lot of people waiting on you, but I give you a warning. I lived a life without regret. I've seen how much you have grown, but there seem to be many that have grudges against you... it won't be as easy as this.

    With Paul gone, the mist started to form into another figure once more, bringing on the question, who was he going to meet next?

    Chapter—2468
    Leaving all to die.

    The group had teleported out, and it didn't take long for Sil to reach the location they were aiming for. To their surprise they had ended right back where they were the last time, in the dark cellar.

    The familiar smell had hit them straight away. It was a pungent damp smell, mixed in with a slight hint of iron, that was the blood from the wounds of the Chrono, the local inhabitants last time.

    - Where are we? - Calva asked, he turned his head but he could see no one, no sign of anyone.

    - Ah, now I know what happened. Russ snapped his fingers.

    - Don't you remember, we caved in this place last time, over there was where that pit was.

    As they focused with their eyes, allowing them to adjust to the light, or using their abilities to help them see in the dark, they could see what Russ was talking about. He was the only one that had visited this place and had the full story of what happened last time.

    - So, where would this champion be? - Sil asked.

    - I don't really know. - Calva said.

    - I only knew Shinto before I was tied up, and it has been a very long time since then. I didn't even know fully about the pit that had been made.

    Which meant, they would have to trust Russ.

    - It's a bit strange, there was the Chrono that were here with us last time. Some of them should have survived, and even if they died, I'm guessing they would have replaced them all with new participants. Can't you check and see if they're around here somewhere?

    - Aren't you able to go into my mind and see how that ability works and use it yourself?

    Sil wanted to say but he wasn't the type to talk back like that, like Peter, and besides if Russ didn't want to do something he wouldn't.

    Searching for signs of life, it didn't take long for Sil to find multiple that he was looking for. The image he could see was similar to a 3D scan. He was able to see the layout of the entire area and he could see the pit they were in before.

    Another cellar had been built identical to this one, but was now located on the other side and in there he could count that there were at least a hundred lives on the other side. Wasting next to no time, Sil teleported the group there.

    Immediately they were in a large cellar space and just like before there were Chrono spread out all around, only there were a lot more than before. Some had jumped back and were startled by the sudden appearance of the group.

    They continued to take steps back avoiding them as if they contained a deadly plague.

    - How did they get in here?

    - Are they here to take us away, is it starting now!

    - I've never seen demons like them before?

    - Wait, isn't one of them a Skully? They look a bit bigger than usual, but they have the same features.

    - Still how did they get in here!

    There was nervous chatter among them all and news was spreading but none of them took a step forward. Ignoring the words of the Chrono since the layout was the same, Sil looked at the very back and he could see it.

    - There it is. - He pointed.

    - That's where the champion will be.

    As soon as he finished his sentence though, just as the other two turned to look, they could see someone walking down the staircase. Similar to how all the Chrono had stepped away from them when they arrived, they started to move away from the staircase, huddling up close to each other as their backs rubbed against the wall.

    It was a Chrono just like the rest of them, only this one had a larger upper body frame like that of a V, and single handed axes on their back.

    - Shinto. - Calva said, recognizing him instantly.

    When reaching the bottom floor, Shinto stopped and looked ahead, he couldn't believe his eyes as he blinked several times.

    - Is this all a trick again? - He said, grabbing the side of his head.

    - Or have I just gone mad... damn it!

    Shinto immediately pulled one of the axes from his back and started to walk forward.

    - Everyone, get away! - Shinto shouted.

    They had already moved up against the wall but were trying to do their best to huddle in closer.

    - Wait! - Calva said, standing in front of the others.

    - It's really me, I managed to escape from Immortui and the demons... we have come here to ask you, ask you about joining us.

    Standing around 15 metres away from them, Shinto stopped again.

    - Calva... you escaped, was it these strangers, were they the ones that broke you free? You know what will happen. They will kill you if they find you, no worse, they will torture the rest of the Skullys right in front of your eyes!

    - How could you trust strangers like these!

    - Don't you think I know that! - Calva said back.

    - It's because I believe we can do it. These strangers, each one of them is strong, strong enough to go up against the demon kings, and there is one that has the power to take on Immortui... but there are few of them, they can't win this battle alone, we need to help them. - Calva clenched his fist showing his determination.

    - Help them? - Shinto laughed.

    - You are going to be the death of us all by doing this. You're lucky that I don't kill you and report you now for appearing in front of me.

    Calva didn't know what to say, as Pultra had expected it would be harder to just simply convince Shinto.

    - How are you helping the Chrono? - Russ spoke up.

    Shinto raised an eyebrow and looked at the stranger. Who were they, who were they to speak to them, and about their own race, they were a stranger in all of this and had no right to say anything.

    - Help the Chrono, all I have been doing is helping the Chrono! Because I joined Immortui, the Chrono get to live, all of these guys get to live! - Shinto shouted.

    - You call this living? - Russ said.

    - Look at their faces. They are all afraid, wondering if they will even be able to survive the next sunrise. How can you take the high ground and say that you are the one saving them?

    - When the truth is you're the one that is just watching them all die, day after day, you watch them all die. Do you think this is living? If they are going to fight in the pit for their life anyway, then you might as well actually fight for them instead, take their place and fight against Immortui! - Russ said.

    The words from Russ seemed to be more effective than Calva, as Shinto had stopped talking, but he soon went back to his ways.

    - No, a fight would just kill us all, at least the Chrono, the others get to live on, the ones that aren't here! - Shinto shouted.

    Frustrated by the whole situation, Russ had decided to try another method, as used his powers, he had summoned Hinto right in front of him.

    - Will I you continue to let people like him die, people like your brother?

      Chapter—1469:
      All three Champions.

      Calva was speechless as he had no clue what was going on. A Chrono had appeared out of nowhere and it wasn't just any Chrono, it was one that was relatively infamous, it was Hinto. A Chrono who had managed to achieve the power of the black flames.

      - You! - Shinto lifted up his axe and power was drawing from it.

      - It was you, you were the one that tricked me!

      To Calva it seemed like the worst outcome had come out of this meeting, and now he had no clue how to handle the situation. His head had turned to Sil for him to do something.

      - Russ, are you dealing with this one? - Sil asked.

      - Yeah, don't worry, no need to get your hands dirty! - Russ said with a smile.

      The axe was swung and the large formation of energy was unleashed. It sliced through the bottom flooring and the ceiling coming right at them. Seeing this, Russ soon activated another power of his, and shadow had risen from the ground stopping the attack right in its tracks.

      From the side, Hinto with his sword went straight for an attack using the black flames that Shinto had blocked by drawing his axe just in time. Calva was getting shock after shock, weren't these two brothers, or was this some type of illusion that had been summoned by the annoying man.

      There was one thing that was clear, his actions certainly backed up the way he acted, if this was just a glimpse of his strength.

      The sword clashes continued as Hinto and Shinto were in battle. From the way things were going it looked like Hinto had the upper hand, not for a moment had the champion taken a swing back and was just blocking the entire time.

      - I... I know you're not my brother, my brother is dead, because of people like you!

      Swinging his axe, when it hit Hinto's sword it exploded with the black flames in one go spreading out to either side like two giant wings.

      It had nearly reached the other Chrono that had been watching by the side. The axe had broken through the sword and sliced right through Hinto, the body fell to the floor, split in half, and lingered there for a moment before it eventually disappeared.

      It was hard, even though Shinto knew it wasn't his real brother, it was hard for him to strike it down like that. His eyes were closed for a moment, but soon realised that there was still a bigger threat.

      Looking up ahead though, he was frozen in place at what he could see.

      - What are you doing... they are not involved in this... this is your doing isn't it?

      Looking at the sight, even Calva was angered.

      - What are you doing? - Calva asked.

      In the room, Russ had summoned a number of werewolves and not just any werewolves but the Glutton type werewolf that they had seen in the pit. They were lined up by the side, drooling and within arm's reach of the Chrono.

      - What am I doing? - Russ asked.

      - I am trying to show you exactly what it is that you are doing. You say you are saving these people, but you are forcing them into that pit to fight against these creatures, you know it.

      - So what's the difference if they die now, of they die in a couple of days? You saying you are not willing to fight, is putting all of these lives, and the next, and the next lot at risk. Your brother died and it's our fault.

      - Are you going to blame the death of all of these on me as well? Because that's what you're saying, if that's the case then I might as well be the reason they die.

      - You're such an idiot that you don't even realize that your own reasoning makes no sense. We didn't kill your brother, the enemy is as clear as day. The werewolves, the demon king, and Immortui that invaded this world.

      - Your brother died in his own way because he was fighting back, he was at least doing something, but you, right now you are also an enemy. Right now, the only people that are stopping these people from leaving, from escaping, is you.

      - I'm protecting them! - Shinto shouted.

      - Even now you still can't see it. Then why don't you step aside, why don't you let them choose, to head into the pit, or have a chance at escaping. I think you know the truth, there's a reason you have to guard those stairs, even with you there people try to escape, yet you slaughter them down.

      - Those people that had decided to fight against you, are far braver than you.

      Sil was looking at Russ, and was wondering why he was trying so hard to convince Shinto. Sure it would be good for them to have him on their side, but Russ, who hardly cared about anything and made no effort at all, was making quite a bit of effort right now.

      The truth was, the whole situation was frustrating and angering Russ, because a lot of the feelings that Shinto was going through now was how he had felt. How those in the Chained had felt toward their suppressor.

      There had always been this big overwhelming fear with Hilston, and for them, it was the same with Immortui.

      Shinto gripped onto the handle of his axe, the energy started to gather again, he then swung it, but it was half hearted. The energy was nowhere near the size that it was before nor was it at the same speed.

      Pulling out the black sword from its sheath, Russ made a slash against it causing the entire strike to disappear in an instant and with it, the werewolves that were around started to fade until they became nothing.

      - He stopped the attack completely and not in the same way as before. These beings that have come to us, they all too certainly have special powers. - Calva thought, and he then looked to Shinto who had fallen to his knees.

      - And it seems like the one that I thought would cause us the most trouble, has managed to get through.

      It was time for Calva to make his move, as he walked over and stood there next to Shinto.

      - I would be lying if I said I wasn't afraid. - Calva said.

      - But, the outsider is right. It appears they can see things far clearer than us. The people, they don't want a life like this... at the moment, everyone is just running away, living in fear for the next day.

      - Me, I've been trapped for years, away from it all, but you have been directly in it, seeing it this whole time, it must have been hard for you. - Calva reached out his hand.

      Shinto then looked up, his eyes watering.

      - If I fight back now... then what about all the people I killed with my own hands? - Shinto said.

      - The people that were just trying to escape, that were just trying to get away.

      - Then fight for them now. - Russ said.

      - And when you do, fight with the intention of winning. The dead are dead, and that wasn't the right time. You were right, if you had acted back then you would have been dead, but with us, and especially me, we can get rid of them.

      - So you do plan to actually fight? - Sil said with a smile.

      Wiping away his few tears, Shinto took Calva's hand and stood up. He then looked at the rest of the Chrono that were in the room.

      - Everyone... I...

      - You don't have to say anything. - One of the Chronos shouted out.

      - Fight... Please fight for us. Please get rid of Immortui and all of the demons!

      - Yes, just go already and fight back! Do it before the next sunset!

      Not saying anything else, Sil went and huddled up next to the rest of the group.

      - Our plan must stay a secret for it to work. Your and our lives depend on it. - Sil said, teleporting all of them away.

      Now, all three of the champions had been gathered, and it was time for them to make their move.

        Chapter—2470:
        First Target.

        All three had teleported right into the center of the cave again. Appearing in the air just a few centimeters above before landing on the ground, and almost immediately Sil went to sit down by the wall to rest.

        He was trying his best to rest as much as possible in between these sessions of gathering people, and he had an idea of what was to come, having been through it all once before.

        Shinto stood up looking around the cave, and the first one to catch his attention out of them all was Pultra who was standing above a person with her hands laid on top of his head.

        - Pultra is here as well! - Shinto said.

        - Calva, why didn't you say anything about getting her to agree.

        - You didn't exactly give me the time to say anything. You were pretty obsessed with getting rid of us from the get go. - Calva answered.

        A little embarrassed by that, Shinto cleared his throat. The situation was already far better than he had imagined since she was here as well.

        - I'm happy that they managed to convince you, with you by our side, our chances continue to increase. - Pultra said.

        Shinto didn't reply straight away to that, because he felt there was still a little convincing to go. He needed to observe just who the rest of these helpers were. Looking around the room, they all gave a little friendly nod, but no one said anything to Shinto.

        - I'recognize some of you, some of you were in the pit. - Shinto said, looking toward Hikel and Chris.

        Although he was focused on his own fight mainly with Hikel that fact that the one called Chris was still alive after going against Unzoku was proof of his strength.

        - Yes. - Hikel said.

        - We know your strength well, and I imagine you should know ours by now. Everyone here has equal or greater power than each other. The important thing is, that none of us will slow each other down, and we can all help each other in achieving our goal.

        The three Skullys hearing those words looked at each other, and decided to take a step back away from the group, because they knew that didn't include them.

        - I see... but all of you, you aren't from here are you? - Shinto asked.

        - Are you from a different space? How did you get in here, was it the celestials that sent you?

        Shinto remembered the conversation that he had with Unzoku, about how the celestials had taken his brother and eventually met his end. He had claimed these people were the same.

        - The celestials didn't send us. - Hikel answered.

        - We came following after him. - Hikel pointed to Quinn on the table.

        - He went through a portal from our world to reach yours, all with the goal of taking out Immortui, and we couldn't leave him alone.

        There were a lot of questions on Shinto's mind, a lot of them about his brother. Since one of them could summon him, had they met him before? Did they know about his brother, was he really dead? Instead though, he decided that at this point and time, it wasn't the time to be selfish, people were relying on him and he needed to focus on what was ahead.

        - Then let me ask you another question, is there a way for you to get back? - Shinto asked.

        The one question that never got brought up between the group, because right now they had no way back. The only thing they had was the Boneclaw, but he had used up energy from all the familiars in his world, all the energy he had been saving up for a long time. It was almost impossible to rely on him.

        - There's a reason I'm asking. - Shiinto said.

        - At the moment, you guys have a hit list out for you. It appears that Unzoku and the other demon kings know of your presence, but Unzoku was told something in particular.

        - He told me because he thought... there was no way I would betray him.

        Shinto might have been a bigger goldmine than they thought, he was a person that was on the inside information for them, since he had been working with the group.

        - They're looking for you guys, for a way to get out. If you managed to get in somehow, they thought you would know the answer to getting out. As for the others I don't know if they know about them yet... and there's more.

        Shinto went on to describe what the current situation with the pit was. Although he had been put on guard and they had created a new holding area for the participants. When night had come, none of the werewolves were sent down.

        Shinto didn't know much apart from that it seemed like Unzoku was preparing for something, putting the two and two together along with everything they had heard, as well as what the Yaks were doing, they were ready for a full out war.

        - If we had never closed that portal, and they had managed to get through, what would the state of our world have been like? - Edvard said, thinking back.

        - We stopped them already, so we can stop them again. - Hikel added.

        - What I'm more concerned about, is the fact that they know about us, and not only is Immortui out there searching for us, but so are the other demon kings. How are we meant to get their blood, is our only option really to just fight them, try to kill them as quickly as possible.

        The situation had become more serious and suddenly now that everyone had gathered, they had to think about taking on the demon kings. The idea of defeating someone like Unzoku instantly, felt like a dream.

        - Quinn is still not awake, I was hoping if we had him he would be able to help but it looks like we have no choice. - Sil said.

        - I have a plan. I didn't want to use up my MC cells just in case I needed to fight but as long as you guys can create a big enough distraction for me, then I can touch them.

        Everyone fell silent for a moment, so what if he could touch them, what did Sil even mean by that?

        - Sil, I think you need to explain a little more. - Edvard nervously said.

        - Oh sorry, if I can touch them, then I can change their memories. I'm not sure how effective it will be, considering most of them are just creatures who like to kill and hunt for fun. I have no doubt if they felt their boss or leader was weaker for them for a moment they would try to kill him, but that's all we need.

        - If I can change their memories to forget about Immortui. To forget about the others, it will give us enough of a chance to take their blood and get out of there.

        It was a resort that Sil really didn't want to rely on. It was a god slayer level ability, so it used up a bit of his MC points and getting close was dangerous.

        - Then I guess that's it then. - Chris said, turning around.

        - We go to face the demon king. Will it be the king of the Yaks first. If he clears his memory then then we won't have to worry about them finding out about the ones I got rid of.

        Everyone nodded in agreement that it was the best choice. Sil wanted to wait a little to recover more of his MC cells before going to battle, when his eyes suddenly widened, and a sweat broke down the side of his face.

        - What's wrong? - Hikel asked.

        - Your heartbeat, it started to beat faster.

        Sil turned to look at Pultra and Quinn.

        - You might have to stay with Quinn, because we need him to be awake as soon as possible. - Sil said.

        At that moment, everyone's heart sank deep into their stomach, a dreaded feeling came over them all.

        - Immortui, he's onto us, he killed the first clone.
