"Got it!" Judge then dialed a number to give some instructions.
All three of them were well aware that if a Battle General were to attack ordinary people without restraint, there would be corpses everywhere.
"Brother, do you think someone knew you're in Ozin and they sent people over to test us?" Casey pondered for a moment before turning to Billy.
Billy's injury was top secret, and anyone who knew about it was under strict orders not to divulge any information; or they would be executed.
This was understandable. Although there were hundreds of thousands of soldiers of Army of Bloodshadow troops stationed on the western border, the person who made neighboring countries tremble with fear was still the Ki ng of the West. If they found out that the king had been injured, they would take advantage of this opportunity to cause chaos.
In fact, not only was Billy's physical condition highly classified information but also those four legion commanders under his command.
Of course, these were all theoretical. In reality, rumors had already spread about Billy's injury; most people just didn't dare confirm it. And now that they knew he had left his western territory with only Casey by his side, it wasn't impossible for some malicious individuals to test them out.
"It probably isn't" Billy shook his head. "Judging from their bloodthirsty aura alone, these two are not ordinary warriors."
"If I'm guessing correctly," he continued. "They're likely from Place of Darkness outside our borders."
Judge's eyes narrowed as he just hung up on his phone call. "Place of Darkness?!"
Place of Darkness was a world that existed independently of the country, mixed with all kinds of people and professions. What was frightening were the many forces in that world, with several major organizations capable of toppling a small to medium-sized country at will.
A year ago, when someone targeted by SHADOW sought refuge in Place of Darkness, Judge went there once with Billy and experienced firsthand the power of Place of Darkness. Although it wasn't enough to make him too wary, he didn't dare underestimate them either. And he believed that what they encountered was just the tip of the iceberg for Place of Darkness.
"Why are people from Place of Darkness coming to Ozin?" Casey frowned as he asked.
"I'm not sure. We need to find out quickly, in case they'll cause chaos in this city." Said Billy.
"Yes!" Both Casey and Judge nodded simultaneously.
The next morning, after spending some time with Tasha at home, Felicia and her sister returned from grocery shopping outside.
"Do you have time today?"
"Yeah, why?" Billy smiled.
"Come with us to go shopping." Felicia replied cheerfully.
"Why do you suddenly want to go shopping?"
"Billy, sometimes I think you're attentive, but other times you're so careless!" Felicia pouted.
"Harleen hasn't bought herself a decent piece of clothing in years. It's all cheap stuff from street vendors. But she's about to start looking for a job again. You can't have her wearing those old clothes! It's embarrassing!" She continued.
Billy realized his mistake and felt guilty. He had seen Harleen wear several sets of cheap knockoff clothes before. Although it was true that she looked good no matter what she wore, it was still unfair to her.
"Don't talk nonsense, Felicia! I look good in these clothes. Why do I need new ones?" said Harleen.
"Harleen, sorry. Felicia is right, we should buy some new clothes." Said Billy.
