Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Demon-Hunters who had honor badges quickly gathered around Grimm.

At the same time, the resistance forces of the Infernal Spirit World had also secretly followed them as the movements from the Demon-Hunters had caught their attention.

Four Level-2 Demon-Hunters arrived first with their Rank-3 Honor Badges, and they looked at Grimm in amazement.

Any Demon-Hunter that held onto a Rank-1 Honor Badge would receive the recognition from the Principal Will, which would allow them to activate the Principal Will Ripples to summon any nearby Demon-Hunters that also had honor badges with them.

“Kill him!”

Grimm shouted to the four supports that had arrived while he kept waving his Sabbatic Goat Staff to battle against the slave creatures from the Infernal Spirit World along with the other Demon-Hunters.

“Hmm?”

The Demon-Hunters that had just arrived looked puzzled and were in disbelief.

It was merely a small-sized young Acraepoid that could be easily pinched to death, but why would a Demon-Hunter with Rank-1 Honor Badge…

The escaping young Acraepoid was trying his best to escape while crying in fear.

Based on human age estimation, he was only about twelve to thirteen years old.

Despite the fact that they were angered by the command, they still proceeded to gather their nature force without any hesitation to go after the little guy in full force, it was because the command was given by Grimm who had a Rank-1 Honor Badge.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Suddenly, two swords appeared surreptitiously while being ignited with flaming Infernal Energy, they were about tens of meters in length and seemed to be aiming for a deadly hit.

The four Level-2 Demon-Hunters were shocked and stopped in panic.

One of the sorcerers who was being attacked only had a Rank-3 Honor Badge support from the Principal Will of the Sorcerers World, hence, he immediately took precaution and disappeared into a cyclone.

However, another Demon-Hunter who was being attacked had slower reaction and relied heavily on his sorcerer barrier.

A booming sound was heard!

The sorcerer barrier slightly resisted the impact from the flaming Infernal Giant Sword before it shattered into pieces, and the Demon-Hunter managed to evade and survive the deadly attack by transforming into blue light spots; however, the Demon-Hunter coughed up large amounts of blood upon reforming back to his body.

The soul of the Demon-Hunter seemed to be impacted as he started to feel dizzy.

Based on natural instincts, the Demon-Hunter swallowed a bottle of potion and escaped without any hesitation.

Grimm noticed the changes in the situation as he was dealing with the slave creatures, his expression changed as he murmured in a deep voice, “Level-3 Acraepoids? Two of them?”

Grimm refused to believe that it was a coincidence. There were indeed two Acraepoid Nobles that had appeared before him!

Three of the Level-2 Demon-Hunters were equally shocked, and soon, they managed to figure out what was happening.

A mission that was assigned by a Rank-1 Honor Badge Demon-Hunter would certainly come with high complexity, and there must be some hidden secret on the escaping Acraepoid!

With that in mind, one of the Demon-Hunters told the other two, “Strangle them first.” It was a middle-aged sorceress who had given the instruction as she extended her palm while the tips of her fingers were ignited with purple light.

Both of the remaining Demon-Hunter and Demon-Huntress nodded.

With the amount of battle experiences that the few Level-2 Demon-Hunters had gained from their Rank-3 Honor Badges, there would not be any problem to just hold off the Acraepoids, and it was exceptionally slight negligence which had allowed the Acraepoid Nobles to perform their ambush earlier.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The booming sound from the intense battle in the skies continued.

While the remaining Demon-Hunters that were being assembled by Grimm’s Rank-1 Honor Badge had yet to arrive, another three more had arrived after a few moments; one of them was a Level-3 Demon-Hunter with a Rank-2 Honor Badge and was hidden under a loose and black sorcerer robe.

With the aid of other Demon-Hunters, Grimm managed to exclude himself from dealing with the slave creatures of the Infernal Spirit World and shouted in the direction of the three others that had just arrived, “Kill that young Acraepoid, and do not let him get away.”

“Hmm?”

The three Demon-Hunters that had just arrived were puzzled as they looked at the young Acraepoid that was escaping in extreme fear.

Swooshing sounds were heard from different directions going after the escaping Acraepoid along with Grimm.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a huge bunch of slave creatures flew out from behind a tall Flame Burrow that was beside the escaping young Acraepoid as they were chasing after a few Demon-Hunters. Some of the creatures diverted and pounced towards Grimm and the other Demon-Hunters as soon as they saw them coming from the other side.

“Again? Is this really a coincidence?”

Under the Mask of Truth, Grimm’s eyes were wide open as he was in disbelief, how could an insignificant Acaepoid cause such a number of coincidences to slow down the pace of his pursuit?

Swoosh…

Suddenly, a booming sound was heard as a black flaming ball that was about thirty meters in size appeared and landed on a Demon-Hunter, the Demon-Hunter fell onto the ground and turned around.

The Demon-Hunter was dumbfounded as soon as he saw Grimm with his pale-blue eyes.

“Huh, it’s you!?”

Grimm was awakened by a livid growling, and realized that the World Guardian must have found out who he was through his breathing.

After all, he was the one who had initiated the invasion into the Infernal Spirit World, which might have also got him enlisted in the list of most-wanteds by the top rulers of the world.

Therefore, he would have to constantly be alert and keep himself safe when he was in the Infernal Spirit World.

Grimm had even planned to not set foot onto the land of the Dark Destroyer Kingdom alone so that he could avoid encountering the Acraepoid Noble that he once encountered at the World’s Gate; furthermore, now that he had no support from the mana pool, going against the Acraepoid Noble alone would mean deep trouble for him.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…

As the ripples from Grimm’s Rank-1 Honor Badge continued to expand, there were more Demon-Hunters that came to gather around him, and all of them set their eyes towards the World Guardian of the Infernal Spirit World.

World Guardians were rarely seen on the ground as they were in the battle against the massive army of the Bright Sorcerers that took place in the skies.

Under the Mask of Truth, Grimm secretly told Myna, “Go and mark on the target and follow them secretly.”

“Huh? Alright.”

The mark that was referred to by Grimm was Myna’s renowned Excretions Sorcery.

With the aid of Myna’s secret energy, any creature that was marked by him would not be able to get rid of the extremely revolting smell.

A swoosh was heard when Myna flapped his wings and left quickly, while Grimm waved towards the elite Demon-Hunters that had gathered around and told them in a cold voice, “Kill him.”

There were tens of elite Demon-Hunters that had reacted to Grimm’s command, and there were two powerful Level-3 Demon-Hunters among them, one with two Rank-3 Honor Badges, and the other one with a Rank-3 Honor Badge and a Rank-2 Honor Badge.

The Black Flame World Guardian was surrounded by about two hundred slave creatures while there were also Acraepoids gathered in the dark as they were escaping from the chaos-engulfed Dark Destroyer Kingdom.

The World Guardian started growling.

“You are the master criminal, and today will be the day of your demise!”
