Slam!!

The wall was destroyed.

Baek Kang-Hyun's eyes were full of anger.

"What… the hell is going on?!"

It had been ten days since the shadows had failed to kill Cha Yeon-Joo. Something that shouldn't—and couldn't—happen was happening.

The number of demonic crystals secretly implanted in monsters was decreasing at an alarming rate.

It was as if the Red Rose Guild had a demonic crystal detector.

"Y-Your Eminence."

Booooom!

A wall collapsed, and a loud sound as if a bomb had exploded went off.

The priests in front of him trembled every time there was an explosion. They couldn't hide their fear.

"Haa, haa… How many Fragments have we collected?"

"W-We could only collect fifty percent. The demonic crystals that we planted are being discovered before the monsters are fully eroded by the demonic energy."

"Damn it!!"

Another loud sound rang throughout the room.

The eyes of the man wearing the red demon mask shook.

The plan had gone awry.

He couldn't comprehend it. Save for the members of the Demon Cult, there wasn't anyone...
