The Author's POV

Chapter 361

[Outside of Inferno headquarters.]

As powerful blasts shook the air, spreading a powerful gust of wind throughout the expansive battle. Thick residuals threads of mana lingered in the air, carrying themselves in the form of color smoke.

Suddenly, a subtle chime rang amidst the fierce battlefield.

Di Ding—!

"We've got a message!"

Bang—!

Raising his hand and pointing his gun towards one of the duergars in the distance, Leopold pulled the trigger and a powerful energy blast shot towards the duergar killing it instantly.

Without paying much mind to it, turning his head and looking towards the others, Leopold flashed his communication device.

"It's time to get a move on. Looks like its finally our turn."

Clang—!

"G...got it!"

Blocking an incoming energy blast, Hein replied with a low grunt. Taking a step back, he looked towards Ava who calmly dealt with the duergars with her pets.

But, there was a big difference to how she fought compared to her previous fights up above. During the demon waves.

Tootle too~

"Khrrr." "Khrrr." "Khrrr."

The movements of her pets were a lot more fluent and Ava was able to keep blowing onto the flute for a lot longer than before.

'Looks like Malvil has done a good job at fixing the flute.'

Hein thought to himself as he stared at Ava.

Had it not been for Malvil who had repaired a small part of the flute, Ava would've had a lot more trouble fighting against the duergars at the moment.

With her now utilizing less mana with each use of the flute, she could now fight for a prolonged period of time.

—I'm done setting up the portal.

A voice suddenly sounded in Hein's ear.

The moment the voice reached his ears, Hein's eyes instantly became sharp as he looked at Leopold and Ava who also looked back at him.

"Let's go."

Without wasting a single second, he twisted the heel of his foot and smashed his shield against one of the duergars behind him, opening up a path for him and the others to go through.

Ohm— Ohm—

Slowly exiting the portals, Douglas alongside a few other members carefully scanned their surroundings.

The walls of the room they were teleported in were coated by a tough metallic alloy. Plastered by the sides of the walls were all sorts of different holographic devices displaying all sorts of geometric shapes and patterns that morphed continuously.

They were a total of seven members present at the moment. For obvious reasons, they couldn't bring all the members in. If they did, not only would the elders upstairs realize they were in, but the situation outside would crumble within a short second.

In fact, their very presence at the moment was a risk in itself.

The last one to step out of the portal was Alga who curiously looked around.

She asked, joining up with the group.
