Count Mock could not believe what he was seeing.

‘What the hell is going on?’

His mind blanked out for a moment.

Choi Han, who was said to not be at the Black Castle, had shown up.

That alone was shocking, but this Bob bastard who was said to be young master Naru’s trusted subordinate was choking him.

He could only come up with one conclusion.

“Ugh, were we b…betrayed?”

Were the Vampire bastards and Cale Henituse working together?

That was the only plausible explanation.

Count Mock got chills throughout his body after he barely managed to get that question out.

‘The mana orb!’

If the Vampire bastards truly had betrayed them…!

If they really were working together with Cale Henituse…!

Then it was obvious where that mana orb would go.

Ooooooong-

The mana orb then slowly headed toward the Black Castle.

Then the being that had been covered by the large mana orb was revealed.

‘…The Black Dragon!’

Cale Henituse’s black Dragon that had been hiding behind the mana orb was revealed.

“…Ah.”

Mock's head started to hurt.

If Choi Han and the black Dragon were both here…

Then Cale Henituse was bound to be here as well.

“H, how-”

He could not speak properly as he was being choked.

However, the person choking him finished his sentence for him.

“ ‘How was this possible?’ ”

Mock who had been looking at Choi Han slowly looked toward Bob who was choking him.

Mock's eyes were asking Bob for an answer. He wanted him to quickly tell him what was going on.

Alberu slowly responded to him.

“What good will knowing how it happened do for you, you bastard?”

Mock suddenly felt like Bob was looking down at him from above instead of looking up from below.

It was the unique type of pressure he had felt when in the White Star's presence.

Why was he feeling that type of pressure from a damn informant?

Mock’s body shot up into the air at that moment.

“Mmph!”

He could finally breathe properly for the first time in a few minutes.

“Ugh!”

However, he was still groaning.

Swooooooosh-

A chain made of wind appeared and bound him.

Baaaaaang!

Then, there was an explosion where Count Mock and informant Bob had been standing.

‘Shit!’

Choi Han, who saw the explosion, started to run toward Alberu contrary to their original plan.

The people who launched the attack angrily started to shout.

“Change the target!”

One of the Dark Elves stood up and pointed toward Choi Han.

A few of the Dark Elves had stealthily planned a surprise attack the moment Mock ended up in Bob's hand.

Their attack that was aimed at Alberu was what caused the explosion.

Rustle-

Black arrows that suddenly appeared were pointed at Choi Han.

“Rescue the Count-nim!”

Some of them shot up into the air as well.

Wind was swirling at the tips of their feet.

“Count-nim!”

One of the Dark Elves in the air flew toward Count Mock.

“I'll release you right away, sir!”

Count Mock whose neck was now free started to frown.

“It’s not over yet!”

“Excuse me?”

The Dark Elves who had jumped into the air had to hear the shouts of their Elementals.

Oooooong- oooooong-

The Elementals that had created the wind at the tips of the Dark Elves feet were warning them.

They were telling them to look down.

The Dark Elves looked down.

Once the dust from the explosion disappeared…

The masked Dark Elf was pointing a large spear toward them.

“…Magic!”

As the Dark Elves shouted in shock after looking at the large magic spear…

“Go.”

That spear started to move toward the Dark Elves.

“Dodge!”

Dark Elves quickly moved away from Count
