Chapter 116 Are You Two Battle Gods?
“Do you just find out?” Rakshasa responded in a deep voice.
Flame Enchantress, who had finally managed to stand up, fell back down again. She trembled uncontrollably all over her body, her face filled with endless fear. She never thought that the target she was supposed to kill this time would be Commander Gardner, the demon god. If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have taken on this task no matter what.
This was a terrifying existence that once killed five Battle Gods with one move with his blade. How could someone at her level provoke him?
It wasn’t until now that she finally understood why even Rakshasa, who considered herself superior and aloof, would be so respectful in front of him. Her biggest regret now was letting Harleen and the others go. Otherwise, perhaps there would still be a chance for her to survive.
“Where is the antidote?” Just then, Billy had come up close to her.
“I’m… I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were Commander Gardner. I didn’t mean any harm… I…” Flame Enchantress continued bowing and begging for mercy on the ground.
“Where’s the antidote?” Billy’s voice was icy cold.
“It’s… it’s here…” Flame Enchantress quickly fumbled for another pill from her body after realizing what he meant.
After taking the pill, Billy sniffed it and then handed it to Rakshasa. “It should be the antidote. Take it now!”
“Thank you, Commander Gardner!” Rakshasa bowed and took the antidote.
“Commander Gardner,” Flame Enchantress begged while kowtowing repeatedly. “Please spare my wretched life! I swear I will never come back to Glavale again!”
“I gave you a chance but you didn’t want it!” Billy replied coldly. “Don’t worry though, you won’t be lonely for long as other members of Blood Hall will soon join you!”
With that said, Billy turned to Rakshasa and continued, “You should know where Blood Hall’s headquarters are, right?”
“I do,” Rakshasa said as she gradually regained her strength after taking the antidote.
“Very good!” Billy turned to Casey. “Contact the military immediately and arrange a route. We leave in two hours.”
“Got it!” Casey replied loudly. As he expected, Billy would make up his mind to destroy Blood Hall this time.
“No…” Hearing Billy’s words, Flame Enchantress exclaimed in despair with a look of horror in her eyes.
Billy struck her with a palm strike, and there was a crisp sound from Flame Enchantress’ neck followed by her falling down.
At the same time, Judge came before Billy and knelt down on one knee as he said, “SHADOW failed to notice anything, please punish me, Commander!”
One of SHADOW’s responsibilities was to monitor all potential risks within its jurisdiction; however, they didn’t detect any of these powerful opponents when they arrived. And Judge, as the Provincial Governor of SHADOW in the Eastern District, had no choice but to take responsibility. He even changed his way of addressing Billy, from a casual brotherly tone to a more formal one when it came to important matters.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“Get up,” said Billy as he looked at Judge. “They must have just entered our territory recently and deliberately hid their presence so your people couldn’t detect them.”
“Thank you for your kindness, Commander!” Judge stood up.
“But, we do need to reorganize things here in the Eastern District.” Billy narrowed his eyes slightly.
“Including those extremists who infiltrated Enssea last time. So many radicals entering our borders without any reaction from us, I wonder what they’re doing all day.”
This couldn’t happen in the Western Region unless someone deliberately let them in. The Army of Bloodshadow guarded the borders with hundreds of thousands of soldiers, with Azure Dragan, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise each controlling the territory of Glavale in four directions. Any movement or disturbance would be detected immediately.
“Roderick Chasey is still weak and unable to handle everything properly.” Casey chimed in.
“Now, among all five war departments, the Eastern District is weakest and most vulnerable for small foreign forces looking for entry into our country.”
Billy nodded in agreement.
“Brother, what exactly does the capital want? If they want you to manage the Eastern District properly, they should at least send an official document!” Judge continued with a furious look on his face, “What kind of treatment is this? They’re treating you like free labor!”
“Do you think receiving an official document is a good thing?” Casey glanced over at Judge and asked.
“Some people are already spreading rumors about Brother holding two positions at once in the capital city. If he takes on Commander duties as well as managing East district affairs, those people will have even more reason to talk!”
“But it can’t continue like this either!” Judge spoke up again, “If higher-ups are afraid of gossip, they should send someone else over here instead!”
“Alright!” Billy spoke up. “Everyone go back and prepare, we’ll deal with the Blood Hall situation first!”
“Brother, should we also call Azure Fang and the others?” Judge paused slightly before asking.
“No need!” Billy responded. “What can a small Blood Hall do?”
“Got it!” Judge and Casey nodded simultaneously
…
Forty minutes later, Billy returned home.
“Daddy…” As soon as he entered the door, Tasha ran over.
“Tasha, were you scared just now?” Billy bent down to pick up Tasha and asked.
“No!” Tasha vigorously shook her head. “Daddy is a hero, Tasha wants to be a hero too! I’m not afraid of bad guys!”
“Well, Tasha was so brave!” Billy touched Tasha’s little head gently.
“Billy, what happened exactly? Are you okay?” Sharon asked while tidying up toys for Tasha.
“Mum, I’m fine!”
“Billy, are you okay? You’re not hurt?” Harleen walked out of the room upon hearing Billy’s voice.
“Nothing happened.” Said Billy as he looked at Harleen and her sister. “Harleen, Felicia, sorry for scaring you.”
“Billy, who are those people? They look so scary!” Felicia spoke with lingering fear. “And what about that woman named Rakshasa? Who is she?”
“This is a bit complicated to explain,” said Billy after some thought.
“In short,” he continued. “Rakshasa was someone SHADOW wanted to protect while those people were foreign assassins who came specifically to kill her.”
“Why did they come after you?” Felicia continued to ask.
“They came to Ozin once before, Casey and I happened to be there. We saved Rakshasa then, so they probably hold a grudge against us and came for revenge.” Billy explained again.
“Have they left now? What about Rakshasa? Did they take her away?” Harleen asked.
“After you left, the police and military arrived shortly after. They ran away afterwards.”
“Oh yeah, Billy, that woman said you and Casey are both Battle Gods. Is it true? Are you two Battle Gods?” Felicia asked excitedly.
