As you might have guessed, Knight Balmain and his comrades were extremely furious. Knight Hucks did not die in glory. Instead, he was assassinated, especially since it was by the Thief God Milton they heard about since they came out of retreat.
In fact, they were only forced out of retreat because of him, and that broke their plan of resurrecting with the demon from beyond and fighting alongside him.
You could count the number of god rank knights the holy kingdom had in 2 hands, and 2 have died in the hands of Thief God Milton.
As the giant glowing ball shot up the front line it could be seen from the defense wall of Doomsday and the Holy Kingdom.
But no one was happy.
It made sense for the holy kingdom because they lost a precious knight, but it was also a huge embarrassment to the wizard union.
After all, they were expecting Abel to lose a few summons by and broadcast the process to the world.
