Zeke flashed Minerva a smile. “Megahead should be the one worried instead.”
Words eluded Minerva. She didn't know what else to say about the man.
I really have no idea where he gets the courage to make such a bold statement.
Meanwhile, Megahead fled all alone.
His speed was moderate, for he was sure some team members would leave with him. He wanted to wait for them
so they could all gather.
Shortly after, his subordinate, Hawkeye, trotted up to him. “Wait up, Megahead! Wait for me...”
Megahead glanced at him in slight disappointment. “You're the only one coming with me?”
Panting, Hawkeye replied, “There should be more, and they should be arriving soon.”
Just after he said that, a few old team members arrived, one after another.
Among them was the trio who owed Zeke a debt of gratitude: Nash, Nico, and Nevan Nixon.

up now after expending all our energy. Please forgive us for our tardiness, Megahead.”
Megahead nodded in gratification.
Hawkeye studied the Nixons curiously. “Nash, Nico, Nevan, why are you three here as well?”
“Why wouldn't we be here? Megahead is our Decanus. Who else would we follow if not our Decanus?” Nash
riposted.
“But when we took sides earlier, the three of you were the first ones to side with Zeke without any hesitation. Why
have you defected now?” Hawkeye questioned in puzzlement.
“When have we defected? We were simply too hungry, so we went over to his side to eat. After eating, we
immediately came after Megahead. Megahead was the one who supplied the food, so it's only right that we have a
share, no?” Nash countered.
Hawkeye promptly flashed them a thumbs-up. “Impressive! You're indeed shameless enough!”
“Congratulations, everyone. You've made the best decision of your life. To tell you the truth, I'm not the least bit
afraid of an insignificant character like Zeke. In the face of the ace up my sleeve, he's as weak as an ant,”
Megahead gloated.
“The ace up your sleeve? What is it?” Nash and the others queried, intrigued.
“You'll know when the time comes. Let's go. I'll bring you all to take a look at it,” Megahead announced.
And so, he led the team members into the forest.
As they went further into the forest, Nash felt that something wasn't quite right. “Hold up, Megahead! Wait a
moment. We're going to trespass into Archfiends' territory soon. Are we still to continue forward? As far as I know,
your relationship with the Decanus of Archfiends, Apollyon, isn't all that amicable. If we were at our peak, we might
be able to hold our own against the Archfiends. But we're now down on our luck. If we were to trespass on the
territory of the Archfiends, wouldn't that be rather... bluntly put, presumptuous of ourselves?”
“Don't worry. Everything is in the palm of my hands. The ace up my sleeve is hidden in Archfiends' base,”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMegahead revealed.
No sooner had they stepped foot into Archfiends' base than a group of people leaped out from an obscure corner
and surrounded Megahead and the others.
Megahead recognized the man in the lead. It was Gailen Lagreid, the right-hand man of the Decanus of Archfiends,
Apollyon.
His relationship with the man was rather hostile. If they were to bump into each other during normal
circumstances, a battle to the death was sure to break out.
Gailen from Archfiends stared at Megahead in exhilaration. “Haha, isn't this the renowned Megahead? Why have
you come to my territory? Well, this suits me just right. While I wanted to take your life, I could never find you. Now
that you've offered yourself up on a silver platter, I can't possibly let this opportunity slip through my fingers. Kill
them all, boys!”
Right after he said that, his team members popped their knuckles, gearing up to attack Megahead and the others.
At once, the nerves of Hawkeye, Nash, and the rest stretched taut.
Not only do they outnumber us, but they're also more muscular than us. On top of that, they even have weapons. If
we were to go head-to-head against them, we'd definitely be on the losing end. In fact, we might all end up dying
here.
