Just then, Debra clutched her long sword as she called out to Master Magaera while in the middle of battle against a few Godly Region soldiers, "Master Magaera. I have nothing to say if you wish to take down the Hidden Hero Sect, but leave those who are innocent out of this."
"Chester and Dax, as well as the rest of the Carters, have nothing to do with the Hidden Hero Sect."
"Also, the Carters are all Darryl's family. Have you thought of the consequences of your actions as Darryl's Royal Master…"
As she spoke, Debra was unable to hide her panic. As the Hidden Hero Sect Master, there was no way she was going to leave her sect to die at a time like this.
Yet she could not let anything happen to Chester or Dax either. How was Darryl going to feel if he were to return and hear of the news?
At the words, Master Magaera's expression darkened as he fell into thought.
He had almost forgotten that the Carters were Darryl's closest family, and that Darryl was His Royal Highness' master. If he were to kill Chester and the Carters today, there would be trouble when the Emperor questioned him.
Yet at the thought of Darryl, Master Magaera's chest boiled with a new fury.
Had it not been for Darryl helping Aurin become emperor, his efforts at gaining more power in the Godly Region would never have been all for nothing. What made things worse was the Emperor, giving him more and more trouble to search for Darryl.
F*ck, there was no way he could take the Carters down.
Yet if he were to just let them go, the rage in his chest would still be there…
All at once, Master Magaera fell into a dilemma.
"Everyone!"
Just as Master Magaera was deciding on what to do, Dax slashed the Sky Breaking Axe through the air as he took on the soldiers before him one by one while calling out loudly to Debra. "Don't you beg him for help! Master Magaera has always been a cunning man— in fact, he's no better than that Archfiend. You can't trust a word he says."
As he spoke, Chester gritted his teeth as he summoned all his internal energy to fight against the incoming Godly Region soldiers.
"Ho ho…"
Just then, an idea came to Master Magaera. He stared coldly at Chester and Dax, saying the words one by one, "You two seem to have the right idea."
"Too bad, though. I'm not going to let a single one of you live."
