Henry's arrival to Billy's place was apparently not just because he worried about Alex's condition, but he had a clue that might lead to Alex's whereabouts. And since he already know that Alex is dealing with demons and unique powers, so the only people Henry can trust and ask for help are Billy and his friends, that's why he came here.
Then Billy asked, "Tell me Henry, what clues do you know about Alex's whereabouts?"
"Eumm, last night, because I was too worried, so I kept trying to call Alex on his cellphone, but there was no answer at all. That's why I also tried to track the whereabouts of Alex's cellphone using the GPS of my cellphone, so I finally found a coordinate point which is on abandoned industrial area."
"Waaahh! Henry, that's a very valuable clue."
"Yes Henry . . . You really are reliable." Said Billy.
Then, blushing, Henry added. "Thanks ... But I still have my doubts about that, because the exact coordinates aren't very clear, and it's possible that Alex's whereabouts have been moved again by now."
"It's okay, I will send people to monitor the situation in the area. Then after confirming that the Sword of Freedom group is really there, we will all definitely going to save Alex."
"Wow, that's great." Henry looks happy.
"You can count on us Henry."
"Y-yes... Please save Alex, he's been my friend since childhood, but I always treated him badly so I feel really bad for him... And now, if something bad happens to him, I'll feel even more anxious."
"Whatever happened between the two of you, take it as a thing of the past... If Alex still thinks of you as a friend right now, it means you are a special person to him, right? ... Now all we have to do is try our best to save him." Billy said.
"Yes, I will help as much as I can!" Henry said with determination.
Meanwhile in another place, or rather in a narrow dark room, with a rusty door that has a barred hole at the top, the bars are useful so that people inside can see the situation outside, and vice versa. This is the room where Alex is being held. Right now Alex is trying to bang on the door and ask someone outside to open the door and get him out of there.
"Hey!! Did you hear?! ... Get me out of here!" Alex shouted, but no one answered.
Until finally someone kicked the door from the outside, saying. "Shut up!! You're so noisy!" That person is Derris.
"Where's my sword and cellphone?!" Ask Alex.
"We've confiscated your sword, but I don't know anything about your cell phone… We didn't find your cell phone when we searched your body yesterday, maybe it just droped somewhere kid."
"Then give me back my sword!"
"Heheheh, that's impossible kid!"
"Get me out! Get me out of here!" Alex kept saying that.
"Shut up! Don't let me go in there and beat you up!" Derris warned.
"Then Come in here! Come fight with me!" Alex challenged.
"What are you saying?!" Derris was fed up as he tried to open the door.
But when Derris was about to do that, Shekai came and immediately stopped him. Shekai say his nae to stop him.
"Derris!"
So immediately Derris gave up his intention to enter the room, then Shekai continued his words. "Let me take care of him. You can go now, it's my turn to watch him."
"Hmm, fine, please make this kid shut up." Derris said as he walked away.
After that Shekai and Alex met face to face, the distance between the two of them was only separated by a barred door. And after looking at each other seriously, Shekai started to say.
"Introducing, my name is Shekai."
"You traitor, you are the former members of the Wind Faction who have betrayed us? Isn't that right?"
"Hmm, I honestly don't like being called a traitor... I'm just someone who does things for my own sake."
"It makes no difference."
"Listen Alex, help will coming for you soon."
"W- what?!" Alex felt really shocked that Shekai suddenly say that.
So Alex asked again, "What do you mean? Do you intend to betray the Sword of Freedom group too?"
"Not really."
"Then what do you really mean?!" Alex was furious.
"This group has its own goals, while I also have my own goals... I have succeeded in helping them to achieve their goals, which indirectly also makes me will soon reach my goals. So I'll tell you one more time... Don't worry too much, help will come to you soon. And that's what I've been waiting for."
"Hah?"
Then, Shekai just turn around and walking without a single word
"Hey! Get me out of here!" Alex shouted again but was ignored.
After that Shekai walked away, he left Alex there alone. And while walking, Shekai took something from his trouser pocket, it was none other than Alex's cell phone, which turned out to have been taken by Shekai yesterday and he hid it in his trouser pocket. Then he deliberately left the cellphone on, so that Alex's whereabouts could be detected by the Wind Faction group. That seems to be the intention of Shekai's ulterior motive, which we will find out if the Wind Faction group has come to this place.
Meanwhile, at the same time, according to Henry's instructions, who had told the wind faction group about the coordinates of where Alex's cell phone was, currently outside the abandoned building which is the headquarters of the Sword Freedom group, there is a member of the Wind Faction who is carrying out task as monitoring actions, that person is Max. He was carefully sneaking and hiding while keeping an eye on enemy territory. Then after snooping around for a long time, he finally found that there were several figures who were indeed seen inhabiting the place, namely none other than the members of the Sword of Freedom. So based on these findings, Max can conclude that this is the place where Alex is being held.
After that, Max decided to return to base, so he could report this to Billy. In addition, he also must not linger near that place, because someone might feel his life force and catch him. Therefore, Max had to go back immediately to report this as well as get ready for action.
