"If I may, Sir Diego. Just one last request." Yuan asked and Diego held the phone for a while longer than he should have.
"Let the Chinese Demon Exorcists go in for round two. This time, the same students as well as their senior."
"You will be coming into the field?" Diego asked and Yuan laughed.
"No, but a fellow stubborn apprentice of mine."
"Even if I can approve it, he will not be around for the fight for we are going in soon by midnight," Diego said and Yuan laughed.
"By midnight? If I am not wrong, the time difference is 6 hours. So, right now it's about 2 pm at your place. They would arrive there by midnight, at most they will come to the party a little late, that's all."
"Hmm. I would not deny that if your students are around, it would make things simpler since our sword magus is not as strong as your cultivators in terms of melee combat." Diego talked to himself even while on the phone.
"Do you really need to get approval, when you are the Head of the Italian Demon Exorcist Organisation?" Yuan asked and Diego chuckled a little.
"We are not doing this alone. The Vatican has volunteered to help since they are around the corner. And it so happened that one of the Sword Magus that had been severely injured was one of the Vatican Elite's younger brothers. So, it might be a little complicated to get approval." n).o--V/-E/.l/-B)-1-(n
"All I am saying is that if there is a mutation of the demon spirits, the chances of a Void Being is high even if it is not induced by any Banned Emperor Terrorists. My people had fought against a Void Being and lived to tell the tale. The only difference is that we cannot reveal the strength of that Void Being and the details of it. Since the fight had been classified as a State Secret."
"I see. Fine, I will do what I can. You give me the name of that particular apprentice of yours as the rest still have their Visas valid." Diego said and Yuan smiled. "At the very most, they would be placed on standby or reserves since both of us cannot guarantee that they will arrive at the operation site when we start the fight."
"That is more than sufficient. I just do not want to see any more capable Demon Exorcists lose their lives because they were not prepared for the unexpected situations." Yuan commented and Diego knew that feeling all too well.
"I understand. I will pass you my email address soon." Diego hung up the phone and the matter had been settled.
"I will get Milk to heal all of your wounds. Have a good meal for now." Jin said as he started eating and guessed that the school instance was not of a priority to Grandma Yuan at the moment as the rest were telling more detailed experiences to her.
It was only Su Zhen who asked Jin if she could have a spar with him once more before they went to Italy.
"What makes you think that we will be involved in any fight?" Jin asked and Su Zhen shook her head. The presence I felt when I was fighting against those variant Y'm-Bhi, I could not shake the feeling that there was a Void Being around.
"Before we continue our talk, what the heck is that thing that you pronounce and how you spell it?" Jin asked as he had no idea what the Demon was.
"They are like a mixture, an abomination of creature and human fused together. But the thing is that they are dead so any feelings like pain or loss of a limb do not bother them at all. So, they can fight until they are not capable of moving. The difference between the usual one and the Y'm-Bhi that we saw, it felt like it had been imbued with monster parts and had the intellect of a veteran soldier. It was as if a lost vengeful soul had been hosted by the body."
"They are able to use magic arts, something that normal Y'm-Bhi are not supposed to and their strength is monstrous." Lian chimed in as Lein and Rong were so engrossed in telling Grandma Yuan their exploits.
"How are they not just undead? Why give a fanciful name?"
"We are not sure as well, they were given that name by Sir Diego. Honestly, calling them undead is easier than making my tongue roll so much during combat."
"Then shall we just call them undead when we encounter them?" Jin said and Lian gave him a hi-5
"How can both of you be so uncultured?" Su Zhen had no idea how this conversation could happen.
"But are they really that strong that even you Su Zhen are not able to fight against them properly?" Jin asked and Su Zhen reluctantly nodded her head.
"My dual inscription charm seems to be at its limit too and I did not wish to rely on it too much."
"We can always make new ones for you though," Jin said and Su Zhen shook her head. "That's borrowed power. I want to use my own powers to kill it."
"If you put it that way, almost all of my powers are borrowed too and if I just rely solely on my own strength, I would not be here, standing where I am," Jin said and Su Zhen smiled a little, hearing it. "In any case, if all of you are already contracted employees of the System, then I guess the System has footage of them fighting, correct?"
"Yes, User."
"Alright, then you guys continue to talk to Grandma Yuan first while you give me a while to analyse the monsters if possible."
"Then what about our sparring bout?"
"Save your energy, Su Zhen. Rest for the moment and enjoy the company of your friends." Jin replied as if he was giving precious advice. "Oh and stay there, yeah? Lynn is bringing in her desserts soon too."
After which, Jin left for the Dungeon Maker.
