After waiting another three to four minutes, Auran finally saw Henry, Marian, and Nimuk running toward him. Behind them came Octo, carrying a few explosions in his hands.
"Let’s go, quickly!" Auran shouted with urgency, directing them past the main gate and into the headquarters. The others followed without hesitation.
"Auran, where do we go now?" Henry asked once they were inside.

"Get him," he said. Though the others were startled at first, they quickly reacted, chased down the officer, and caught him.
"If you don’t want to die, tell us where the two twins—the grand technician’s sons—are kept."
To Auran’s words, the guard nodded obediently, and afterward, they followed him deeper into the headquarters until they stopped, facing a large number of officers.
"Get them," Auran said simply, and the warriors behind him jumped forward.
The officers, armed with mana blasters, pointed them toward the group and prepared to fire—but suddenly hesitated, confused by a massive burst of black air that clouded their vision.
