Bab 190: Private Corps

After realising my [Devil Light Manipulation] at maximum power, I had noticed I was the only one present in the temple. Their astral forms had returned to the actual bodies, which I couldn’t sense anywhere near this place.

Still, the fact that all that was here was their Astral forms suggested to me that they either knew something like this would happen or they were busy elsewhere and simply sent their forms here to pray. The most logical was the former, but the most likely was the latter.

I couldn’t wrap my head around the reason they really weren’t here. Possibly assassination missions? Whatever.

I left the temple to go see how my shadows had handled the entire situation. At the bottom of the temple, the generals were kneeling down, awaiting my return.

‘Honestly, it would have been better if they came down there to help me.’

I begrudgingly realised how easier that entire scenario would have been if they came down there to help me.
