Chapter 590 Lord Banesnake’s Shadow

Looked like snatching this stone egg really had been the right call!

Light flashed in Steven’s eyes.

From here, he could stop worrying about the rest and pour everything into evolving his Divine Sigils.

Let’s see just how high this stone egg could push his ceiling!

In the inner city, in a certain house.

Cyrus had returned to his original form, wounds on his body, his face dark and grim.

Beside him stood Bloodgaol and Goldwyn.

Bloodgaol had lost an arm, and his face was pale as paper.

And across from them, Hudson’s face was so dark it looked ready to drip.

“One mission, two objectives, and every last one of them failed!”

Cyrus, Bloodgaol, and the others didn’t dare say a word.

“You’ve dragged our name through the mud clear back to the Stone Age!”

Hudson’s boundless fury had nowhere to vent.

“And here I’d said that once I took the seat of the Chamber of Monitors, everything would come as easy as breathing. You lot really did hand me a big surprise.”

Bloodgaol and Goldwyn trembled.

“Do you know whose beast core that was?”

The three of them looked at Hudson.

Hudson said, cold and grim, “That was Lord Banesnake’s beast core! He paid the price of his own offspring, all to help us seize control of Orroux.

“Now look. Get ready to face Lord Banesnake’s towering wrath, all of you!”

At those words, a tremor ran through Cyrus and the others-it had actually been Lord

Banesnake’s beast core!

Cyrus said, blaming himself, “My lord, this is my fault. I’m the one who failed to kill that kid with a single fist, and let this whole disaster happen.

“Please report it, my lord. I’m willing to shoulder the blame alone.”

Hearing that, Hudson felt a fraction better.

“What good does shouldering blame do? The urgent thing now is to snatch the beast core back, and fast.

“Once that kid hands the beast core to the Military Command, then even I will have no way to fix it!

“And it could leak our secret because of it, on top of that.

“We have to snatch the beast core back by any means necessary!”

Cyrus and the other two looked at Hudson. They wanted to grab it back too-but how?

They could hardly just charge straight to the kid’s residence and kill their way in; that would be as good as a death wish.

“My lord, that kid is very strange. That fist of mine could blow apart any Divine General alive, but at the critical moment, it was blocked by a red light from inside his body.

“That kid’s trump card is seriously weird.”

Hudson gave a cold snort. “Never mind what trump card he’s got. Just kill him outright and be done with it.”

Hudson mulled it over a while.

“No-this can’t be dragged out. On my end, I’ll find a way to quickly organize an out-of-city mission. I’ll lure them out.

“When the time comes, you go all-out for me. I’ll be behind you, backing you up. We must reclaim the beast core!

“Kill that kid for me!

“When the time comes, I’ll find a way to have the Fiendspawn go along too, and take Banesnake’s beast core straight into its body. No more smuggling it in with a beast tide-the Fiendspawn will receive it directly!”

At those words, Cyrus hesitated a moment.

“My lord, should we call in some help?”

Hudson arranged it. “I’ll have Bloodfiend bring a company of men to support you. This time, you must kill that little bastard at any cost!”

Cyrus and the two others wore expressions of utter solemnity.

“Yes!”

The next morning.

Steven, having barely evolved much at all, was woken up.

And he had to wake up.

Because Peter and the others were leaving…

Frank and his group were returning to Rowenville today, and Peter and the others would leave with them.

Sooner or later, they had to go.

Everyone gathered together.

Steven looked at Peter and the others, all packed and ready, and for a moment didn’t know

what to say…

Darlene’s eyes were rimmed red.

Danny, Louie, and Theo were low in spirits.

Peter held himself together, looking at Steven with a smile.

He spread his arms wide.

“You little punk, come here-give me a hug.”

Steven stepped forward, and the two of them embraced.

Peter thumped Steven on the back a couple of times.

“Good lad. Getting more and more built. Makes pulling you into the squad back then all worth

it.”

At a moment like this, Steven naturally wouldn’t try to talk them out of it anymore.

Steven looked at Peter. “Once you’re back in Rowenville, quit being so reckless. Steady yourself

a bit.”

Peter gave a light snort. “Now you’re lecturing me? You’re the ones who’d better be careful. The missions ahead get more and more dangerous—all of you stay safe. Nobody’s allowed to die.

“And you still owe me that promise-you have to come back someday and let me look badass alongside you.”

Peter didn’t dare keep going; he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to hold it together.

“All right, enough of this weepy nonsense. We’re just parting ways, not saying goodbye forever.”

“Heh. We’ll be waiting for you all to come back to Rowenville someday, so we can knock back a few good rounds together!”

Peter turned to look at Alan.

He grinned wide. “Captain Greenwood, thank you for these years, for leading us and helping us grow. We learned a lot.

“Take care, everyone! We’ll gather again someday!

“And we’ll treat you all to our wedding wine when the time comes!”

Peter’s gaze swept over each teammate’s face, and in the end his eyes rimmed faintly red.

“Ah, this is what getting old does to you. We’re off!”

Darlene being heartbroken was tucked in Peter’s arm.
