"You are awake."

General Phorus spoke as he glanced at the man who was lying on a bed.

"I-I did…"

Keeve turned towards Phorus and replied.

"Why are you two here?"

He questioned.

"Well, we just wanted to check on you all."

Iria answered.

Keeve then turned around and realized all the other 5 King Stage Cultivators of the Shadow Unit were lying on different beds as well.

A wry smile appeared on his face,

"We really lost huh…"

"Don't be too hard on yourself. That man is simply a monster." Phorus, who understood what Keeve was thinking about spoke. Iria, who was standing behind him nodded as well.

Keeve chuckled,

"I know that. I had a first-hand experience."

"I had a few questions that I wanted to ask. I would be grateful if you could answer them, of course, I can come later if you are tired and don't want to answer them right now."

Phorus spoke.

"Is it about the fight?" Keeve questioned.

"Yes, that is correct." Phorus nodded.

"I also wanted to talk to someone about this battle, so please ask." Keeve smiled.

"Why didn't you attack him?" Phorus questioned.

A frown appeared on Keeve's face as he questioned back,

"What are you talking about?"

"The time when he was knocking out all your subordinates, why didn't you attack him? Were you going easy on him? Why were you acting as if you could not see him?"

Phorus questioned and Keeve's frown deepened,

"I have no clue what you are talking about. I admit, I was thinking of going easy on him at first, however, when he took down the 3 King Stage Cultivators at the start, I gave up on that idea."
