Chapter 403: Daemon Group (1/2)

”Dark robe and animal mask…” The healer widened his eyes, realizing such an outfit. ”You… You are from Daemon Group.”

”Correct. The reward for you is…” He waved his hand to the right as the strings tightened. However, the strings turned out to be attached to his whole body instead of his arms.

And those strings sliced the healer's body into pieces, soaking the ground with blood.

”I'm sorry that I pushed you too much.” He smiled and bent down his knees in front of Sihan. ”As promised, I am here to fulfill everything you wish for.”

Sihan smiled and said, ”When I trained under you, I always adored you. To give up your life for your own brother, I always felt envious of Theo. Still, for me, you are the coolest person and the only person I will look up to. I wish you were my brother… I wish… to be with you… I wish… to join your group.”

Edward Griffith smiled and took off his mask. He then put his mask on Sihan and covered his body with a long dark robe.

Sihan couldn't help but smile as the person he adored so much really fulfilled his wish in an instant.

Edward carried Sihan on his back while walking in a certain direction, saying, ”I may not be able to fulfill your first wish to be my brother… However, if you don't mind, we can be sworn brothers.”

Sihan only tightened the hands around Edward's neck, showing his excitement. Suddenly, Sihan asked, ”How about Theo?”

”He…” Edward smiled and took out another mask from his robe. Unlike the goat mask he had earlier, this clearly had a pair of horns like that of a dragon. The mask had two blazing tattoos around his eyes, becoming the symbol of might. The mask was known as… the Dragon Mask. ”Those who are targeting my little brother only have one end. Death!”

…

Meanwhile, Theo and Agata were still chased by fourteen people with Xavier leading from the very front.

”Theo. What are we going to do?” Agata asked.

”We are going to buy a bit more time.” Theo nodded and released his Magic Bullets, shooting them.

”Dodge them and strike those that come at you,” Xavier ordered as they leaped to the side.

As expected, the Magic Bullets dispersed to chase their own targets.

But with his brother's order, ten people with their bodies fully covered with clothes and masks appeared, taking this chance to eliminate them.

”Huh?” Theo widened his eyes as he saw ten people appearing and killing ten people from Xavier's group in an instant. There wasn't even a time to react as if they were prepared to do it in an instant. And Xavier didn't even realize due to them making no sound.

”This is not good.” Theo gritted his teeth and took out his pocket watch while Xavier had yet to realize that his subordinates had been killed.

Theo got another surprise when those ten people moved in Sihan's direction instead of chasing him. They even slowed down to show Theo that they had no plan to harm him.

”What just happened?” Agata was as confused as Theo, but she knew that out of all fourteen of them, only four of them were alive.

They had Theo and his clone and she should be able to confuse the other two to buy some time. If those mysterious people didn't have the intention to harm them, it might be the right time to make a counterattack.
