One minute later, Billy appeared again inside the castle.
The courtyard was already filled with corpses and blood flowed like a river. Every member of the Blood Hall who had fought to resist had been killed. These people from Place of Darkness, every single one of them, had innocent blood on their hands. Killing them ten times over wouldn't be enough. Casey and his team never intended to let them go.
"Boss!"
"Commander!"
Upon seeing Billy, all three shouted at once.
Billy nodded slightly and said, "Let's leave here."
The three responded with nods.
Two minutes later, they drove away in their car.
With that, Blood Hall ranking fifth among Place of Darkness officially became history.
"Boss, are you okay?" Casey asked as they drove away for a while.
Judge looked at Billy with a slightly worried expression, clearly sharing the same concern. He knew that Billy's injuries were severe, and he was worried that Billy's old wounds might have resurfaced after his battle with the Devil of Blood today.
"I'm fine." Billy replied.
"Commander, were you injured?" Rakshasa next to him looked surprised.
To be able to easily kill a top Warlord even when injured was terrifying! What if he were in perfect condition?
"Just a little injury." Billy responded.
"Commander, I'm sorry. This is all my fault. You've been inconvenienced because of me." Rakshasa took a deep breath before continuing to speak.
"I... I didn't tell you everything. Please forgive me."
"You finally decided to speak up?" Judge spoke in a deep voice. "For your sake, both Ms Harleen Knight and Tasha were almost implicated. Are you treating us like your free bodyguards?"
He and Casey had already suspected something for a long time, but they hadn't asked because Billy hadn't mentioned it.
"I'm sorry... so sorry..." Rakshasa said guiltily.
"What are you hiding from us?" Casey spoke harshly.
"Somebody posted a bounty on Place of Darkness for one map with very tempting conditions," Rakshasa took another deep breath before continuing to speak again
"What kind of map?" Judge asked.
"I don't know what use the map has, everyone only knows about its existence but very few people know what it can do. It's just that the reward is too tempting which makes everyone flock towards it." Rakshasa said and shook her head.
"So what you're saying is that you know where the map is?" Judge asked after some thought.
"Two months ago, I was being chased by Blood Hall's people when I met an injured Battle God on my escape route." Rakshasa nodded her head slightly.
"He was almost dying at the time cause he was completely beaten and had only one breath left in him."
"He asked me to do him a favor, to find a way to notify his family to escape for their lives. In exchange, he showed me the map."
"But he didn't give it to me because he was afraid I would get into trouble. He just told me to remember as much as I could before destroying it himself."
"I wanted to learn more about the map, but at that time he was already at his wits' end. After destroying the map, he lost all hope." Rakshasa explained.
