As the wolf-people stared at Lord Bahram's motionless body, many began to tremble with a frightening chill in their hearts.
At the peak of their morale and montum, all hopes ca crashing down within a blink of an eye.
The timing was so impeccable it was as if the very heavens were watching, condemning, and denying their act of defiance.
"Is the great ancestor watching over the Fen family from the stars above?" a wolf-man muttered blankly.
The change happened so abruptly that he felt empty inside.
Plop! Plop!
However, many wolf-people within the stronghold began dropping to their knees at his words and prostrated on the ground as if pleading for rcy, afraid of suffering the wrath of their supposedly dead ancestor.
"Did you catch all of that on cara, Tenshin?" Xue Xinya asked with surprise.
Nakamura Tenshin stood blankly for a mont before he quickly nodded, "I did! I've been recording the entire ti!"
"Quickly replay it!" Xue Xinya urged and said, "I want to see how the demihuman leader was killed. That attack just now was so fast, I did not catch a glimpse of it!"
"Right? I couldn't see it either!" Anika Fischer exclaid before wondering, "I wonder what kind of godly weapon that was… I haven't heard anything about the world having such a great weapon like that before."
Shortly after, the video was replayed in slow motion before finding out the projectile which killed the demihuman leader was actually a spear.
It was only a blur but enough to be recognized as such.
Team Netherfrost shortly had their eyes widened in shock and alarm before Lucy Walker, the team's marksman and support, exclaid, "What the hell?! I was expecting so firearm projectile, but that's a standard lee weapon for Hunters!"
"What kind of godly person could have hurled the spear at such speed? No, is it even more possible for soone to hurl spears at such insane speeds?"
While the team of A-rankers was shellshocked by the situation and discovery, Xue Xinya's eyes flickered before she stated objectively, "Whoever it was is more important. What is important is that this is our opportunity."
"Quickly contact our families to gather the elites to launch a punitive attack to reclaim the strongholds. Now that the greatest threat is out of the way, we won't need to wait on the emperors' aid any longer!"
"Right!"
Everyone beca excited at their contacted their families with anticipation—anticipation for the day they regain their freedom.

Shortly after killing Lord Bahram and gaining a large sum of proficiency along with experience for it, Albion spat, "Gotcha, b*tch."
"Huh?" Fenriri softly exclaid before asking curiously with surprise, "Who did you get just get, Master? Were you targeting soone?"
"Yeah, I just killed your uncle. You know, the guy called Bahram," Albion answered.
"How is that possible?" Fenrio exclaid with disbelief before he inquired with doubt, "Are you sure you got the right person, your grace? Bahram is not weak, and he is quite far from here… for you to kill him from such distance…"
Fenrio was speechless and did not know what to say further. It was unimaginable and unfathomable.
Is this the true strength of an Aura God? Before this person's strength, who can resist it? Who dares to disobey it?
"My abilities are beyond mortal understanding. You don't need to understand. Believe it—for it is the truth," Albion stated coolly before adding nonchalantly, "And if you still can't believe it, go see it for yourself."
"Your Grace, I truly wish to see it for myself. If Bahram is really dead, I will pledge my loyalty to you!" Fenrio stated with resolution.
At the sa ti, Albion furrowed his brows slightly.
Although he preferred diehard loyal subordinates, he did not mind having subordinates with conservative thinking.
At least he could trust them to make logical choices and avoid dying, resulting in loss of resources from grooming them.
"Go for it," Albion waved his hand casually before saying, "But I won't be sticking around. I have wasted enough ti here."
"Master, are you leaving already?" Fenrira asked with a startled look.
"Yeah," Albion nodded and casually said, "Since the problem here is, more or less, solved with the death of Bahram, I am leaving. I am needed elsewhere."
"Can we co too, Master?" Fenriri quickly asked.
"Of course!" Albion answered before his lips curved into a smile as he asked, "But are you sure you want to co with ?"
"Yeah—" Fenriri was taken aback before asking with doubt, "Err, where are we going, Master?"
"To attend a party among the stars," Albion casually pointed up to the skies before asking for confirmation, "Still want to co?"
Fenriri's eyes sparkled.
What was it like to party among the stars?
Fenriri wanted to know, but thinking about the trip to get there made her hesitated for a mont—before her intense curiosity ultimately got the best of her.
"Yeah!" Fenriri answered.
'I only need to endure the uncomfortableness of the trip getting there. It should be fine once I hop off the accursed ship afterward, right?' she innocently thought.
"Alright, but I can only take one of you with . The other needs to stay and charge of matters here while I am gone," Albion stated before turning Fenrira and asked, "Are you willing to stay back, Fenrira?"
"Yes, Master!" Fenrira nodded solemnly before saying with a resolute look, "I will make sure the entire tribe submits to you by the ti you return, Master!"
Despite what she said, the truth behind her resoluteness was unknown—whether it be due to her devotion to Albion or being firmly against going for another ride in that accursed spaceship.
