Outside the Forest of Truth, a Teleportation Array silently activated.
Beside Ares, in addition to his sword servant, stood a figure shrouded in black mist.
This figure, wrapped in chains, emitted a clear, melodious sound with each step.
This was the master smith Ares had 'invited' for Thor.
On this side of the portal, no one was there to greet the master smith. The area within ten miles was deserted, even the Guardian Shadows who watched over the Forest of Truth had been instructed to avoid this region.
A black coffin lay in front of the portal.
"Heh heh—"
"To even bring out this one, you must think highly of me."
The master smith, bound in chains, sneered continuously, "Mars, you might as well kill me with one strike!"
"Do you mean it?"
Sword light flashed, and the demon race master smith darted out of the Teleportation Array with incredible speed.
Even though she was fast, the sword was faster!
