Chapter 38: Reaching The Safe Haven...
Upon hearing the voice, the three figures were horrified. None of them dared to respond for fear of offending the terrifying creature. They knew, after all, how cold the creature they called their master could be.
There was silence in the cave before the deep voice echoed once again, "Inform Number 2 and the others to accelerate our plans for that location. The sooner it’s completed, the sooner we can move to a larger world."
The three figures bowed respectfully toward the deep shadows before turning and exiting the cave. After they vanished, the voice spoke once more, its tone laced with interest.
"Kranos, huh? How interesting... how truly interesting!"

The three walked in silence for a while. Once they were sure they were far from their master, they began to speak among themselves.
"The master is truly furious... To think that kid actually killed Number 3," the first figure said in a hushed voice beneath his hood.
The second figure beside sneered in disdain. "Number 3 was always overconfident. Instead of requesting backup from either of us, he thought he could complete the task alone."
"Everyone, now is not the time to think about these things. let’s get down to business. The infiltration is reaching nearing its final phase. Soon, we’ll be able to fully corrupt this world and leave." the third person finished speaking and began walking away.
