The newcors were all very young and appeared well-dressed. All five of them had an aura of arrogance and seed super confident about everything. They were Killian, Frey, Kate, Freya, and Jack.
"Elijah, Josh, did you kill them already?" Killian asked, noticing the corpses of the demons lying on the ground. He had yellow hair that fell down from either side of his face.
Josh smirked. "That's what happens when you arrive late."
Elijah joined in. "I inford you guys first, and you arrive last. It's not anyone's fault here." He shrugged at them.
"Hehe, very good," Killian replied, annoyed, before turning to look at the cadets gathered here. "They fought well. Only so of them died, but death happens when you fight against demons."
His expression turned serious as he asked, turning to Josh and Elijah, "So, any leads on why the demons appeared here?"
Josh and Elijah exchanged glances and shook their heads. "Apparently not," Josh said solemnly. "But I heard from the cadets that a mysterious ssage was sent to them through their halo watches. It ntioned so kind of treasure and a map pointing to this place, but the ssage was deleted right after it was sent."
"Interesting..." Killian said upon hearing his words. "Do you think the demons are behind this?"
Josh nodded lightly. "Most likely. The appearance of demons and the ssage asking cadets to co to this location all seem too coincidental."
"Ah, I have sothing to say." Just then, a cadet approached them.
"What is it?" Josh asked.
The cadet said, "There were three more cadets with us, and they said they were demons in human form. When the demons ca and surrounded us, it was only through his orders that the demons started attacking us."
Elijah, Josh, Killian, and everyone present turned in shock and disbelief. "Where are they?" Killian asked hurriedly.
The cadet shook his head. "I don't know, but the last ti I saw them, that cadet over there was holding one of them hostage."
They all turned their heads and saw that the cadet was pointing at Orion.
"Ray! Co here," Elijah shouted at Ray and summoned him.
Orion heard them talking and understood what this was all about, but he had already prepared for everything.
"You want to ask about those three demons in human form?" he imdiately asked Elijah once he arrived.
"Where are they? Did they escape?" Killian asked urgently.
"Nah, I have them right here," Orion said, looking at them. "Follow ." He led them to a boulder, and beside it lay three unconscious humans. Their skin was rotten in so places, but they appeared mostly fine.
"They are unconscious, and their skin... It looks like you used so sort of poison to knock them out," Elijah said as he examined the three n.
Orion nodded. "I knew I couldn't fight them directly, so I used poison, which I always keep with for ergencies. Who knew it would co in handy here?"
"Alright, you did well. You can go now," Killian praised Orion for his wits before sending him off.
Orion nodded and was about to leave when soone blocked his path.
It was a man with dark purple hair who appeared the youngest among everyone there.
Jack looked at Orion with narrowed eyes. "Take care of yourself," he said before letting Orion go.
Orion nodded lightly before leaving the area and heading toward Mark and the others. However, as he walked, his expression turned strange and solemn. 'Who was that last guy? He seed very suspicious of ,' he wondered.
Just then, a spacecraft appeared in the air before them. It was triangular in shape, with the pointed side serving as the front.
It landed before them, and from it erged five n and won.
They imdiately went to talk with Elijah and Josh before taking the bodies of the three n away.
They then bombarded Orion and the others with questions, which they answered 'truthfully.' They stuck with the ssage and treasure bluff and maintained their story.
Soon, more people exited the spacecraft and began taking away the bodies of the demons while others started investigating the area for more traces of demons.
"Alright, you all can go now," Elijah said to all the cadets gathered there.
The cadets nodded and began leaving the forest.
"Keep an eye on them while they leave," Killian instructed Frey, who nodded and disappeared with the kids.
"Mr. Ralf, what do you think of the situation?" Killian asked the man who had co from the spacecraft. He was an official from the Archons who handled matters related to demons.
"The entire situation is very strange," Ralf said, looking at them. "I have alerted the higher-ups about this and inford them of everything that happened here. As for what I think, it doesn't matter," he said plainly.
Killian chuckled but said nothing else.
"I think there is sothing bigger going on here," Josh said at that mont, attracting everyone's attention.
Killian nodded beside him. "There is indeed sothing significant happening. Our Limitless Void doesn't consist of any planets; it exists in the form of an endless void, and there are only a few entrances to it where one can co and leave this place. So the question is, how did these demons find themselves here? And what are they planning?"
He added, "Those three n are clearly humans, but according to the cadets, they are demons in human bodies. Sothing doesn't add up here."
He looked at Josh, Elijah, Ralf, and everyone present. "I an, if the three humans really turn out to be demons, then what are the chances that all these cadets aren't also demons?" he asked.
Everyone's faces grew serious upon hearing him. His claims weren't wrong. What if there were even more humans out there who were actually demons disguised as humans? What would happen in that situation?
Elijah frowned and added, "There are still five years until the deal with the other races; then what are the demons up to? Is this a conspiracy or sothing?"
"Hehe, conspiracy? Motives?" Ralf laughed lightly. "I guess we will know once those three humans wake up."
