"All that effort to bring us all the way here is now gone to waste. What were they thinking to think this would be enough to hold us as their hostages?" Rozan said as he looked at all the tanks that were upside down and the soldiers were unconscious or dead because of his earth spikes.
"Some people are just straight idiots. This isn't the first time we see this kind of people from another world," Sven said as he bent the tank's armor by just pressing his fist on it. "They think because they're the owner of their world we would give a fuck about them,"
Clancy looked at the bodies inside the ripped cars from the bullets, he looked at Uric's face was no longer recognizable. He couldn't help but chuckle and smirk at Uric's dead body, he then looked at his men on top of the watchtower and gave them thumbs up.
"Can you tell us what happened here?" Kastor asked as he walked toward Mykel.
"It's better for you to see it for yourself, come," Mykel said as he tilted his head toward the parliament building.
They entered the building and the first thing Kastor saw was people being treated, dozens of them. He looked at the wound on those people's bodies and was perplexed by them.
Mykel explained the truth about Caspea and the king who ran the world to Kastor. The moment he said those people did some experiment on Awakeners and treated them like a freak to Kastor and the others, it was enough to make them furious.
"Unforgiveable," Kastor clenched his fists.
Gunnar came out from the corner with Clancy, he was dragging Ralph all the way to the front while everyone looked at the mastermind behind the madness. Gunnar threw Ralph and rolled over all the way to Mykel's feet.
"I have no business with him, you should do what you want to do with him, Clancy," Mykel said as he kicked Ralph to turn his body then he rested his right foot on Ralph's chest as he stared down at him.
"That's my plan, mate," Clancy said as he smoked his cigarette. "I will hang this bastard on top of the parliament building so everyone can see him,"
"Before you do so, can you sound the alarm again? Some of our friends are still out there and they might be lost in the city," Mykel asked as he kicked Ralph all the way to where Clancy was standing at.
"No problem," Clancy said and then looked at one of his men as he swirled his index finger.
Mykel turned around and looked at Kastor, he patted Kastor's shoulder gently and looked at him. "Let's go outside and wait for your team's arrival, I hope that's enough to attract their attention so we don't have to wander around this big city," Mykel tilted his head toward the entrance.
Kastor looked at Mykel with his eyebrows raised. "Yes, I hope so,"
The siren sound was rung for almost half an hour, it was deafening and the sound of the siren was enough to make all the people who lived in the city hide in fear because they thought something bad had happened.
After waiting for an hour, everyone came thanks to the siren but some of them were injured because a group of soldiers shot them when they found out they were Awakeners. Thankfully, they weren't heavily injured and had only a small scratch, but those who got a headshot were dead.
There was nothing they could do but accept their death.
"Let's leave them here, we should clear the tower so we can bring their bodies back," Mykel said as he looked at Asmond, Enma, and Kastor who were mourning.
They nodded their heads and grabbed their stuff.
"Mykel," Clancy called as he hurriedly walked toward Mykel. "I heard you're going to the island now. Do you need more men?" Clancy asked.
"No, it's better for all of you to stay here and take control of the city because there's a chance the soldiers are going to take back the building from you," Mykel answered as he looked at the building. "Just wait here and we will save your world from the demons,"
Clancy rubbed his mouth as he looked around, everyone could tell that he was being nervous.
"What is it?" Agnez asked with her eyebrow raised.
"Nothing, I just have bad feelings about that island," Clancy said as he pointed at the north and kept rubbing his mouth. "Be safe, mate, we will celebrate once you came back," Clancy patted Mykel's shoulder and he looked genuinely worried about Mykel.
"Just save one of those wine bottles in the cellar for me, I'm going to drink it all up later," Mykel answered with a smile.
Clancy laughed and nodded his head. "Of course, mate," Clancy said as he walked backward to save one of the wine bottles in the cellar for Mykel.
Mykel and the others went to the north and stood in front of the portal, the silence and the cold from the fog started to make some of them nervous. Mykel didn't tell them about the portal, but they already knew how to enter it by holding each other's hands to prevent them from getting separated again.
Since the portal was too small for everyone to enter, they separated themselves into big groups. Mykel and his team were going to be the first ones to enter the portal since he proposed that to Kastor and Kastor was fine with it.
Asmond saw Mykel was surrounded by his team as they walked into the portal and then Asmond's team with a bunch of Awakeners since Kastor and Enma were in a different team.
As soon as Asmond entered the portal, he could only see two meters away from where he stood because of the thick fog. Fortunately, his senses were so sharp he could tell from which directions the demons were.
Asmond took care of all the demons that ran toward them and started to move forward so slowly and carefully. It was the same as on the thirteenth floor, they got separated but thankfully their method worked and now everyone was with the people from their team.
"How long do you think we have been wandering on the island, Asmond?" One of the guys asked as he followed Asmond from behind.
"I don't know, Fred, maybe an hour, two hours, or even half an hour," Asmond answered as he shook his head. "It's easy to lose track of time when we can't see anything," Asmond continued as he looked around.
"You don't sense anything around us, right? I'm just making sure that we are safe," Fred asked as he looked around him because all he could feel was that someone had been watching them.
"Yes, we should be safe because I don't sense anything at the moment," Asmond nodded his head and then saw trees around him. "I think we entered a forest now," Asmond said as he touched the tree and the trunk was so cold like ice.
Asmond kept walking forward and didn't look back because he knew that everyone was following him since he walked so slowly. He started to realize the footsteps behind slowly getting quieter and lesser than before, so he looked back and only saw three people behind him.
"Where's the other?" Asmond asked as he looked at Fred.
"What do you mean? Everyone is her-" Before Fred could finish his sentence, he noticed there was only one guy behind him and another one next to him. "Wait, I swear I saw them a minute ago!"
"Are you sure it was a minute ago?" Asmond furrowed his forehead and stared at Fred with suspicion.
"I don't know! What should we do?!" Fred asked and started to panic.
"Calm down, let's not raise our voice and start to follow the path that we took," Asmond said as he walked past Fred and the others.
"I want you to look around and make sure to keep following me behind, do you guys understand?" Asmond asked as he started looking down the ground from where he took the path earlier.
Asmond furrowed his forehead because he didn't hear any response from them. He turned around and saw nobody behind him even though he just walked past them five seconds ago.
"No, no, no, no..." Asmond said as he shook his head in disbelief.
