Susan quickly entered the domain after he heard the old dwarf's words. He saw Kyle, and upon seeing the kid's condition, an angry expression appeared on her face.
"Just what the hell is going on here!?"
His angry voice echoed in the air. He couldn't believe he had just left the kids alone for a while, only for an unknown person to attack them in his absence.
If he hadn't sensed the strong force inside the forr west Continent and found the old dwarf, Zron, one of the old divine guardians of the planet who had just managed to construct his body, he would have never known sothing was going on.
Zron glanced at Susan with a surprised expression, a little taken aback that his old friend was getting angry because of an unknown kid. Regardless, he focused his gaze on the woman in the dark cloak.
"I did sense another transcendent presence, but why is such a strong person harming a weak individual? I thought those above the pseudo-divine rank are not allowed to kill lower beings unless they are siding with the dark side."
Glacia clicked her tongue.
"What bad timing..."
She glanced at Kyle one last ti.
The human's eyes had turned blank; he probably fainted in the process.
Glacia knew the dwarf was weaker than her, but she also knew that even if she fought with him and won, she wouldn't co out unhard.
That's why, before Zron could even attack, her body turned into a mirage, and she entered the portal that scattered into countless white particles.
Anlee and the other old elves also entered the space and started looking around for Yue. However, when they did not find her, they started to panic and questioned Zron and Susan, but the duo completely ignored them.
Susan gritted his teeth and made his way toward Kyle. The mont he touched his body, the boy fell down toward him.
"He is badly injured! Zron, I am taking him with for treatnt. Just find the other tower's guardians and inform them about everything."
Susan ford a portal in front of him and left with Kyle. After he left, Zron glanced at the phoenix and checked her body.
"She is fine. Just unconscious."
He glanced at Anlee.
"You, what is your na? Well, whatever it is, do you have a communication crystal?"
Zron paused and started mumbling under his breath.
"Wait, even if I have a communication crystal, I don't know the other guardians' communication crystal coordinates..."
He let out a sigh and before Anlee and the other old elves could get a proper idea of what the heck was happening, his figure turned into a mirage and he vanished with the phoenix.
It didn't take long for the news that the elven Queen had disappeared to spread throughout the whole Coexis.
The news reached Yon and the other guardians an hour later through an old elf, and Yon imdiately contacted Susan since Zron didn't co to find him.
Yon got angry after hearing everything from Susan. He couldn't believe that sothing like this happened in their presence. And seriously, what was Zron doing when that woman ran off without a scratch!?
Alec, Jian, Carcel, Sinon, and the others found out about it through Anlee, and they were shocked because they had just parted with Yue and Kyle a while ago.
They all quickly went to find the tower's guardians to get more details, but even the guardians had no clue, except that a powerful elven woman took Yue and badly injured Kyle.
The people of Coexis, who were still celebrating their recent victory against the enemies, were hit with another wave of panic when they heard that a new powerful enemy had appeared on the planet.
How could they not panic? After all, this ti the enemy was strong enough to badly injure the strongest human on the planet and kidnap Yue, the elven Queen, right in front of the guardians of the tower of opportunity.
....
Inside a dimly lit room, Kyle opened his eyelids at the sound of the water droplets. But a splitting headache hit him hard, and he let out a groan. Just then, a familiar voice sounded beside him.
"Don't get up because I don't have any more divine energy to heal you."
Kyle blinked a few tis, and his hazy eyes finally cleared up. But when he rembered what happened before he beca unaware of his surroundings, he let out a deep exhale and clenched his fists tightly.
His eyes darted toward the unfamiliar ceiling before he glanced at the old man with white hair sitting a little distance away from him. It was Susan, and he looked very tired for so reason.
The room looked ordinary, but water droplets cascaded down from one corner of the ceiling, forming a beautiful curtain of water that fell into a small pool. Also, the room didn't have any furniture except for the bed Kyle was lying on and the chair and table where Susan was sitting.
"So, I survived...?"
He let out a sigh, which sounded way too loud to ignore. Susan raised his eyes and stared at the kid.
"Yes, you did because of and Zron."
Kyle blinked, still a bit dazed from everything that had just happened.
"Zron?"
"He's the last divine guardian of this planet who stayed behind when all the other divine beings left. He reached the transcendent rank, so he could sense the woman who hard you."
Kyle sat up, ignoring Susan's request not to. The old man let out a sigh, even though Kyle had made him work a lot during or before the war, he couldn't just let the kid die.
At first, when Zron told him about the transcendent rank individual, he thought it would be just another enemy. But who would have guessed that Kyle and Yue would be in danger?
Kyle massaged his temples and asked the question he had been hesitating to ask because he already knew the answer.
"What about Yue and Nine?"
Susan's eyes widened at his words.
"What, that woman took Nine as well?!"
