There were three groups of hostages.
The knights who had entered the underground maze.
The members of the royal family, maids, and servants who were at the entrance.
Cale then looked toward the royal children, the final group of hostages.

�What-?�

The shocked Jopis did not have any elegance about her anymore. She just seemed desperate as she held the boy who was in pain as he was being poisoned by dead mana.
They didn�t have the time to heal him right now.

Cale and Choi Han made eye contact. Choi Han had been looking at the children as well before they made eye contact.
Everything had happened in an instant.
It had not even been a few seconds. However, it was long enough to confirm they had the same thought.

�I need to do it quickly.�

��That�s true, Cale-nim.�

Cale needed to hurry.
Rather than chatting with the enemies and looking for an opening�
Rather than defending everything one by one�
Right now�

�I can finish things faster if I beat them down.�

That was the way to protect them and heal the boy.
Cale sighed.

�How do these idiots not know how I am after fighting against me so many times?�

Booooooooooooom-

The ground started to shake.
The shaking seemed to be getting closer.

�You bastard! What the hell did you do?!�

Cale looked toward the old man controlling the feather who shouted and responded.

�What am I doing? I called over a bastard to eat your snake.�
�What?�

The old man started to frown and Elisneh reached her hands out to cast signs for an incantation.

�Stop Cale Henituse!�

The old man with the mirror and the middle-aged man with glasses started to use their mediums after hearing her order.
However, the power that was responding to Cale�s calling was faster. JrNovels.com
