Chapitre 240: A moment that shouldn't happen

"It's quite bloody," Tytus muttered under his nose, observing the battle from a small hill where Mukken brought him. 

Despite how eager he was to join on the side of his former companions, he dared not to make even the slightest move in the presence of this being that took over his master's body. 

"That's how battles are," Bart commented offhandedly, not showing any interest in the battle at all. 

"What's even the point of this battle, master," Tytus asked, forcing himself to use the title he reserved only for Mukken in his heart. That was how big his hopes for the answer were. 

Yet, instead of replying, Bart smiled gently and kept his lips pursed. 

The battle continued to develop. The initial skirmishing quickly came to an end when Layn's forces showered both sides with long-distance magic bombardment. 

A few moments later, all three forces clashed with each other, proving that Layn's plan actually made some sense.
