The citizens were anxious and the officials of Micovia were all tense.
The mayor of Newsbery walked to the front of the person-in-charge of the army and spoke with a nervous look on his face, "General, do we really have to start a war? There are millions of citizens here who haven't retreated. Once the war begins, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
The military superintendent looked coldly at the mayor in suit and tie, and he replied sternly, "Bouvier can't die. This is the order from the higher-ups."
"But..." The mayor still wanted to say something, but the military superintendent snorted, "This is an order, not a negotiation."
The mayor's face turned pale and he dared not to say anything more, so he turned around and left quickly to command and arrange the retreat of the citizens.
Nevertheless, the warning siren was still playing in a loop from the military's loudspeaker. The sound was getting louder and louder, and the tone was getting more serious.
Fade noticed that Bouvier had been brought away by the army. He'd gotten into an army truck and left.
Seeing this, Fade's body moved a little in the air.
Such a simple movement scared everyone and the people froze, unable to move.
The military superintendent who was responsible for giving the order at the scene almost commanded the military to fire.
However, he relaxed a little when he saw Fade's actions clearly.
That was because Fade, who was in the air, did not chase after Bouvier. Instead, he coughed. His face turned pale and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
He covered his mouth and wiped away the blood quickly. Then, he turned around and flew to the shore instead of chasing after Bouvier.
The spectators who were holding their breath could not help but let out a sigh of relief, especially the mayor of Newsbery.
On the contrary, the eyes of the military superintendent flickered and a strange look appeared on his face. "It looks like Fade's injured. If we take advantage of this opportunity and..."
As this thought emerged, he couldn't help but feel a little eager to do something.
He was hesitating whether or not to give the order to launch an attack.
Out of the blue, the commander felt dizzy as though someone had smashed his head with a hammer. Not long after, he felt a stab of pain in his head.
A cold voice sounded, "I'm not doing anything because I don't want to hurt the innocents. If you wish to, I don't mind fighting to the end."
The owner of this familiar voice was none one other than Fade, who was in the air.
The person in charge of the military couldn't help but be shocked. He looked up at Fade's figure in the air and couldn't speak for a second.
It was at this moment that he gave up on the idea of firing because he knew that the military firepower present couldn't kill Fade. On the other hand, he would be a dead man for sure if he made a move.
Fade's telepathic skill to his mind had spoken loudly of his capacity. If he wanted to kill him, he would not be able to defend himself at all.
Thinking of this, the military superintendent broke out in a cold sweat, and he felt terrified.
At this point, Fade had returned to the shore. He picked up Quin and the others and then left directly to return to the hotel.
The news of the battle spread across the entire world quickly.
The fact that Fade had single-handedly defeated 50 martial artists from Micovia, killed Herman, and injured Bouvier, was passed along from one person to another
