"Who's that guy?! He's strong!" Gunnar asked with his eyes wide open and stared at the TV.
Jeanne jolted from her seat and walked closer to the TV to see if she wasn't imagining things. Everyone looked at her weirdly and then she turned around and looked at Mykel while pointing at the TV. "That's Asmond! Right?!"
Mykel smirked and nodded. "Yes, I think so too," he answered while staring at Jeanne's expression which looked so happy.
"He's someone you know, Jeanne?" Rozan asked.
"Yeah! That's my childhood friend! The one that I told you guys," Jeanne replied with a big smile on her face and couldn't keep her eyes away from the TV.
"I think he's just lucky since the minotaur was obviously already dying from that bomb," Agnez said as she crossed her arms unamused by what she saw. "But still, cutting half a demon that big wasn't easy for those people at least," she continued.
"We should recruit him, boss," Gunnar said while looking back at Mykel. Jeanne immediately turned around and look at Mykel while waiting for his answer.
"I don't think that's possible since he's personally picked by Kastor, and since he got him first, we can do nothing about it," Mykel answered while crossing his arms. "Sorry, Jeanne," he looked at Jeanne that looked disappointed.
"It's okay," Jeanne answered and then looked at the TV. "I'm glad that he has become a great Awakener and that's enough for me," she continued as she walked back to her seat.
"Let's see the situation in the other districts," Gunnar said as he changed the channel on the TV.

"We should have killed it when we had the chance!" Enma said as she held a shield and flail stood next to Caesar and held off the attacks of the werewolf.
"I know! I just didn't know that this demon had a skill like that," Caesar replied as he swung his sword at the werewolf's leg since the werewolf was so agile because of its small body compared to the minotaur.
"At least we only have to deal with this one," Enma said as she bashed the werewolf with her shield then swung her flail at the werewolf's head but immediately got blocked then smashed her shield.
"Enma!" Caesar screamed as he watched Enma fly away and then fell down to the ground. "You fuck! That's my assistant!" Caesar said as he swung his sword on the werewolf's hand and cut it off.
Caesar immediately used the werewolf's thigh as a footing then jumped onto the werewolf's back. he stabbed his sword so many times but it immediately closed itself as soon as he pulled his sword out.
Caesar pulled his sword back as far as he could the swung it diagonally at the werewolf's neck but the werewolf grabbed the blade with his right hand. The werewolf grabbed Caesar's armor and slammed him to the front of the werewolf and to the ground, Caesar couldn't move his body at all because the werewolf broke his back.
The werewolf howled and then used his giant mouth with sharp teeth to bit Caesar's neck but Caesar was fast enough to thrust the sword into the werewolf's mouth. The werewolf was in pain and immediately grabbed the sword from Caesar's hand and then threw it away.
While the werewolf was busy handling Caesar, the other Awakeners used the opportunity to attack him but the werewolf immediately used his long arms to throw them away and his long claws to tear their face. Caesar couldn't do anything but cover his neck and face with his arms and hope he survived.
The soldiers started blasting their guns at the werewolf while Caesar was still laying on the ground in front of the werewolf. The werewolf grabbed Caesar's body and brought him to the tower's entrance so nobody could disturb him with his food.
Enma woke up because of the sound of the gunshots and stood up immediately. She looked around and then saw Caesar's arms being munched by the werewolf but thanks to his sturdy armor, the werewolf couldn't get through them.
"Caesar!" Enma screamed as she ran toward him.
"Enma! My... sword!" Caesar said as he tried to hold off the werewolf's mouth.
Enma looked around the field and found Caesar's sword not far from her then she grabbed it. she ran as fast as she could and saw the gauntlets on Caesar's arms started to tear because.
"Caesar!" Enma screamed as she threw the sword at him but then the werewolf deflected the sword with his left hand and it flew away again.
"Hurry!" Caesar screamed as he grabbed the werewolf's mouth and tried to push it away.
Enma grabbed the sword again and when she turned around, she saw Caesar's face was being scratched by the werewolf's claw and blood came out from his face. Without thinking twice, she ran and swung Caesar's sword at the werewolf's face and made a huge scar on his face.
The werewolf screamed in pain and Enma didn't stop there and kept swinging the sword at his face until the werewolf had enough and grabbed her neck. She tried to free herself but the shield on her left hand was preventing her from grabbing the werewolf's hand.
Enma almost lost her consciousness as she struggled to free herself from the werewolf's grip. Suddenly the hand got chopped off, and Enma fell down on her back as she saw Caesar standing up with his sword in his hand.
"Get your hand off of her!" Caesar screamed as he decapitated the werewolf's head in a single swing.
The werewolf's head fell down and Caesar as well, Enma stood up and approached him to check on his condition.
"Caesar?! Caesar!" Enma said as she put Caesar in her arms as she looked Caesar's right side of his face was deformed by the werewolf's teeth and claws. "Caesar, please wake up!" Enma kept shaking his body with tears falling down her cheeks.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I'm...fine..." Caesar weakly answered and grabbed her cheek with his wounded hand. "We did it, we fucking did it," he continued as he tried to smile but his right face muscle prevented him from doing so.
"Yes, we did," Enma replied while sobbing and smiling at him. "Please hold on for a moment, I will bring you to the hospital," she continued as she carried Caesar in her arms.
"Is he going to be okay? His face is fucked up," Gunnar asked.
"He seems fine since you can see that he's moving his arms and head around," Rozan replied as he squinted his eyes to see clearly.
"That's going to sting really bad tomorrow," Lillith said as she watched the TV.
Agnez turned her head and looked at Lillith. "How do you know?"
"Because he looks worse than I am," Lillith replied as she sat down next to Agnez, but they were still confused about what she was talking about. "Oh, right, you guys didn't know, huh?" she asked as she looked at them.
Lillith opened her mask and the bandage on her cheeks, all of them immediately leaned their body and head away from Lillith except for Agnez who stared at it with curiosity. They saw what Lyneth saw and they were staring at it with disgust.
"What the fuck happened to you?" Agnez asked with eyebrows furrowed.
"My dad did this to me," Lillith replied as she put the bandage and mask on. "I will tell you guys later if you're interested," she continued.
Mykel grabbed the remote from Gunnar's hand and changed the channel to check the situation in District 11 and District 12. All of them immediately turned their heads and looked at the reporter that reported the massive damage that the demons made in those two districts.
"As you can see down there, the demons have occupied the city and now the soldiers and the Awakeners are trying to fight them back!" The report said as he looked down on the city from the helicopter. "If only the Guild Association would help them, this won't happen to our beloved cities!" the reporter continued.
"You guys don't have to worry, the whole district is empty, I have provided them shelter in Districts 10 and 14," Lyneth said as she kept watching the reporter blame the Guild Association. "Also, those demons won't be able to get out of the city because we have put barriers around and heavily guarded with artilleries if something like this happens," she continued as she looked at her phone and made a phone call.
"Oh?! The reinforcement has arrived!" The reporter said as he pointed at dozens of SUVs entering the city. "Our hero and savior are finally here!" the reporter continued and pointed at the red-haired guy who had just come out from the car.
Asmond looked at the damages the demons made in the city and he clenched his fist and gritted his teeth. "This is unforgivable!"
