Chapter 363 Movements

"Alright. Today is the day we finish our job. We don't know when the exact time they'll attack us, but I'm pretty sure that it's going to be today. Make sure you're aware of your surroundings and prepare for battle," said Paul.

They had been working on the lake for the past three days, but there wasn't a single movement coming. So, they thought the enemies wouldn't come to them at all.

On the other hand, they had gathered some information about the demons' activities. The city had experienced a lot of attacks during their project since they couldn't stop the flow of the river that had been contaminated.

Luckily, the city's soldiers and the Valley Master managed to stop them completely.

"Still, are they truly coming?" Stella asked with a frown.

"We don't know about it yet."

"I mean if they don't come, isn't it bad for the two captains we've invited to this place? They should have work to do instead of wasting their time with this. I'm afraid they're going to complain about how we're wasting their time."

"I don't know. If they complain, I'll take responsibility for it. Even so, if there is a possibility of enemies appearing, I won't hesitate to ask for help. So, make sure you keep the danger in your mind."

Stella nodded, not complaining anymore. On the one hand, she wanted smooth sailing for this mission. On the other hand, if there was no danger, they would receive complaints from other squads, so this was the reason for her question.

Now that they had one mind for today, they immediately headed to the lake.

Surprisingly, the Valley Master had waited for them in front of the gate to share his gratefulness.

"Well, this is the last day. After finishing your work, come to my castle and have dinner. I'd like to express my gratitude to all of you."

Paul nodded. "Thank you for receiving us."

'Visit (No ve (l)B i n) to read, pls!',

The Valley Master smiled and saw them off.

The group immediately started working on the purification.

Only Zion was missing in this group, considering he had been tasked to bring another Captain.

Paul, Stella, Rose, and Anna were looking around, making sure there were no enemies.

It was a tense day because they had to ensure the team's safety.

…

As they expected, there were a lot of movements coming from around them.

The first movement came from the hill in the east. There was a woman standing on top of the tree, watching the entire valley with a bored expression.

"Hmm… The work is about to be completed. If the Supreme Devil Organization is going to attack them alongside the demons, then it's better to do it after they finish their work. After all, they can simply repel the demons and occupy this place with fresh running water.

"In that case, there won't be any attack during the day. Then again, we can't rule out any possibility." Clara thought for a moment and turned to the castle. "Still, if they're going to attack, the first one to make a move is the Superior Demon from the north…"

Clara seemed to be planning something, but she decided to wait for it.

Just like her, among the mountain range in the south, there was a group of fifty people standing side by side.

The one leading them was a muscular bald man. His body was emitting bloodlust and his gaze could make one tremble in fear.

He glared at the people he brought and said, "Tonight is the time for us to occupy that land. This is going to be fertile land that can contribute a lot to the organization, so failure is not allowed. Anyone who contributes to the failure will be executed by me. Understood?"

"Yes, Sir." They nodded their heads. To fight the Valley Master and his soldiers, they brought five Devil Inspectors and twenty Devil Officers. With the help of the demons, this attack shouldn't fail.

'',

But as expected, the valley might be the center of attention right now. If there was Clara in the East, the demon in the North, and the Supreme Devil Organization in the south, then there was one more captain in the west, though he hadn't arrived yet.

Zion was leading a thin young man to the fort. The young man had slanted eyes and long blonde hair tied into a horsetail. Unlike the Devil Bishop from the Supreme Devil Organization, he appeared friendly and harmless.

Even his weapon was a rapier. Still, as one would expect from a Captain, he was following Zion's top speed with ease.

Still, the problem remained in his head as he couldn't help but frown. "Are we going to be late for the party, Zion?"

"I'm not sure about that. Besides, we can't do anything, considering this is the fastest we can go."

"I can go even faster, though." The man smiled, teasing him.

"That's certainly true. In fact, I apologize for wasting your time with my slow speed."

"Well, your speed is already so high that it's beyond belief. If you were in my squad, I would have nurtured you."

"That's an honor."

"Haha, you're qualified for that. If only your body is slimmer, you might be able to increase your speed further."

? Zion didn't know how to react to the last one, considering he kept his body like this for a reason. Though, he didn't refute him either since he precisely knew what he could do with a slimmer body.

"Thank you for your words, but I'd like to remain the same. This is the only thing I can't give up."

"Well, there is nothing I can say if you want it like that. But you're free to change the squad if you ever feel like quitting the Demon Relief Squad."

"Haha, thank you for the invitation, but I enjoy the company of my squad. It's truly an honor to get praise from you… After all, you are the fastest guy in the Demon Banner Army, the Demon Assassination Squad's Captain, Captain Lucian."
