Chapter 464: A Weird String of Decisions

Chapter 464: A Weird String of Decisions

Brother!

Bruce!

Suddenly, Betty and Blazer, running at the frontlines, noticed that something was happening to Bruce.

The Silver Wolfs right arm was dancing in the air he had fallen victim to an attack by an Alpha.

In the frontlines, where everyone was pushed beyond their limits, all the combatant bodies were already smeared with the blood of themselves, their comrades, and monsters, in a situation where even breathing was a struggle.

It was strange that, up until this moment, nothing bad had happened to Bruce, who was performing the most strenuous tasks with the blade of his sword. Things had been going too smoothly until now That was what anyone would say in this situation.

Betty could not help Bruce, and neither could Blazer.

The other members of Team Silver running behind them faced the same dilemma.

Bruces arm, flying in the air, was torn apart by monsters and vanished without a trace.

Dont mind me!!!!

However, Bruces expression remained unchanged.

Right here, right now, the best course of action was to destroy the monsters and move on.

Bruce, without showing any fear, focused only on defeating the enemies in front of him.

But then a certain change occurred that erased such thoughts.

!?

The first to notice it was the Silver Princess, Haruhana.

[This isnt happening! Please, let it be just my imagination!]

This was because she had been tracking the arcane energy of her most beloved person as much as she could.ost simultaneously, Bruce, Blazer, and Betty also felt it overwhelming them.

Ryan, Reyna, Mana, Reid, Ida, Midors, Tzar, Tarawo, Adolf, Argent, Belia, Eigul those on the frontlines, close to the Devil Kings Chestpocket all of them quickly realized.

[What the!? Whats going on with Asley!?]

[His arcane energy! Its]

[Howd his energy just up and vanish like that!?]

No matter how much Bruce, Blazer, and Betty tried to sense Asleys arcane energy, they could not detect it.

Bruce was more concerned about Asleys vanished arcane energy than his lost arm.

It was not because the fate of humanity hung in the balance It was simply because Asley, a friend, a student, and a benefactor, was someone they cared deeply about.

The monsters still numbered in the millions, and the initial strength of humanity was dwindling. The relentless advance of monsters and Devilkin was steadily robbing humanity of its strength.

With Ts, Irene, and Warren absent from their positions, the central forces were being pushed back, forced to join the central rear forces. Instead of maintaining coordination with the rear, the focus was on how to survive Such was the situation Irenes right-hand woman Trace, the Dainty Tiger Dragan, and the Meteor Battlemage Tangaln were forced to deal with.

The three of them, having grouped up at the center of the formation, already had their hands full dealing with the advancing monster horde, and as such, they were unable to pay attention to the people behind them.

[What in the world is happening!? Ashs arcane energy is gone, and I cant sense Masters arcane energy at all, either! Then theres another large arcane energy heading towards that place! What the hell is that!?]

Despite having so many questions, there was nothing Melchi could do.

At this moment, among all the marching forces, there was a unit that could move most freely It was comprised of the elite members led by Viola, the former Royal Capital Magic and Warrior Guardians.

Haiko, who had been moving as a guerrilla force, had joined this unit.

It was a precaution against the reappearance of Billy.

However, Billy never appeared before this right-flank formation.

That was why Viola, while issuing instructions to everyone, kept searching for Billys arcane energy.

And then, it happened Sensing arcane energy moving like a tempest through the center, Viola reported it to Haiko.

Master Haiko!

Yes, I sense it as well!

Miss Viola! We ought to pursue it!

Though Jeanne said so, Viola hesitated to finalize her actions.

However, there was a group that started moving without heeding Violas instructions.

It was the members of the Warrior Guardians.

Egd led this group and began to charge onward.

Egd!? What are you

We MUST pursue it! Miss Lina is there! Shes right there!!

Indeed, as Egd spoke, Billy was heading towards the Devil Kings Chestpocket where Lina and others were.

And Egds words carried a meaning beyond the presence of Lina.

[! Hes right Allowing Billy near them now would only lead to disastrous results!]

In agreement with Violas thoughts, Jeanne shouted,

Let us hurry, Brigadier Viola! We were the ones who first took charge of Billy! Were responsible for our failure!

Agreed!

Haiko added, leaving Viola with no choice but to nod.

The elite members of the former Magic Guardians Brigade felt the same way.

Hmph! Thats right! It doesnt matter what is what anymore were simply doing our job as the guardians of the capital! Retreating now would damage our name forever! Although, that name was already damaged, courtesy of Pochi clawing our signboard And Sir Gaston never got around to replacing it

Once the decision was made, Viola acted swiftly.

She immediately stuck close to the advancing Warrior Guardians, aiming for Regalia Castle.

On this battlefield, survival was impossible without units moving together cohesively.

Soon after, Dragan and Tangaln took charge of the central rear forces and began to move.
