Being an eyewitness of such sad fact really staggered Jack's mentality.
In his head, Jack's already understood that he is now in another world. Hoping that most Earth common sense would also be applied here was too exaggerated.
Jack understands that. He already prepared for any shocking development.
He just needs more time to adapt.
It was a heart-breaking moment that comes too soon. And Jack's not ready yet.
Through Sagala's, he could only see the little child version of himself being physically abused by adults. Get beaten until almost dying and then sacrificed for some mumbo-jumbo.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
His old wound reopened and triggered the detonation of accumulated negative emotion. An angry man with a gun, no one who dare to get closer.
Burned by rage, Jack went berserk into Marcog Forces.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
These armies are well trained in approaching their enemy and conduct close range combat using the sword or spear. While their mages are also well trained in conduct long-distance attacks using their magic.
Such logic failed before firearm. Moreover, this fully loaded guns is carried by an angry man.
Not to mention this angry man powered by nanomachines' marksmanship skill.
Dozens of men fall in bloodshed mess. Their sudden deaths are caused by some unknown weaponry. Those sceneries really shake their upper leader of military forces.
Moreover, the demoness maniacal laugh increasingly intimidating anyone around there.
Demoness Madelief which always following him stealthily is laughing non-stop. She really gets her party start. This time she had sucked 72 massacred souls and increasing up her power exponentially.
There are no remaining bodies, let alone any trace of blood. Everything was clean up by that demoness
BANG! BANG! BANG!
clack! clack!
His double Beretta roaring until no one left.
And when his Beretta's out of ammo, he continues his raid using his double karambit.
CROT! CROT!
And when the last standing man got his throat sliced by Jack's karambit, Jack found another Sagala-like-ill-fated person in the center of the devilish altar.
This one is a very thin female with a pair of dead-eyes in small-thin-cloth to wear. She seems to have undergone every bad treatment that humans ever think. Might be those soldiers have treated her even worse than the cockroaches.
Her miserable appearance makes Jack's heart broken into pieces. He cries while carrying her back to the castle.
Madelief which is witnessing his action giving him a warm smile "My King, you are really a nice person."

Back to Western Castle of Royal Family.
A thunderous roar echoed non stop in the air. Every one there dumbfounded.
"What were those thunderous sound, Nindya?" The King looks confused.
"Seems like the war has broken. Those are my children's fighting your enemies, Ranu." Nindya said with a flat expression.
"Your Highness, what should we do?" Ciha asked.
"Of course King safety takes priority as high as state sovereignty. It doesn't take a genius to conclude that.. these exaggerate assassination's attempt will lead toward a coup d'état. Moreover, with the absence of the King at Capital City." Nindya answered.
"So we should massively announce that the King has arrived at the Capital City?" Ciha asked.
"Correct! First, we must let people know that their King is back, alive and kicking. Two, we should not let that present enemy has an idea that King has escaped.
Judging from current condition, I would not be surprised if some high official including nobles and military are getting involved, means dirty.
And I would not be surprised either if some royal family has dirtied their hands. This level of conspiracy will not have much power without any help from the royal family."
"Oh!" Ciha gets shocked. She admires Nindya's sharpness. Once again she felt envy but amaze toward her. "But it could have torn our Kingdom apart. Aside from the dirty faction, there is also exit the loyal faction. Especially my father, my clan, my families and yours, the Titan family. And many more. They would not stay silent."
"And What if the loyal faction take an action?"
"They Will face the dirty faction!"
"Then A civil war will break, Am I correct?"
"It is unavoidable. It is a consequence of crossing the constitution."
"That civil war will lead our Kingdom into another downfall. The civil war will surely weaken our strength, both military and economically. Many people will suffer. Many regions will declare their revolt. And do you know what happened if our overall strength weakened?"
Ciha and The King's face turn into grim.
"A neighbor country will surely take advantage. Congratulation, we just found the third faction: someone out there which plan all of this chaos." Nindya voices reverberated in that room.
Ciha and The King's expression is getting darker than black.
In the distance, there still sounds thunderous roar come from Beretta's action.
"Now let's make a plan." Nindya proposes an idea.
"Ranu, how many men in this castle now?"
"It's about thirty-two, or less."
"Let's split into three groups. The two groups act as a decoy. Each group should guard an empty carriage. Let other people think each one is guarding the king back to the Capital. Each group should choose a different route. Every group should speed up their horse. Pretend that you are in a hurry.
I assume that you are galloping your horses a little faster. Avoid any unnecessary armed conflict. Your real mission will begin when you arrive at the Capital City. Try to public attention that the King has arrived safely.
The last group is me and the King. We ..."
BRAK! BRAK!
"Don't Tell me... " The King said while trying to take a peek into the gate. "This is bad. They have destroyed the front gates! We must hurry, Nindya!" The King said while taking a step to stand next to Nindya.
"All right, King. Now, all of you, go! Accomplished your mission." Nindya said.
A circle of light appears beneath her feet. It was a teleportation Sigel. It sizes keep increasing until reaching King's feet.
And in the blink of an eye, both of them vanish into thin air.
"Consider it done, Your Majesty, You Highness Nindya!" Ciha kneels down and administers a proper salute in a knight manner.
Then she runs into the military post in the backyard castle.
A moment later, two horses-rider groups dashing out through the back gate in a different direction.
