Billy's arrival at the fighting place was able to make Razor a little nervous, although his will to fight was still quite large, but the call he received from Shekai made him have to take other choices.
So after hanging up the phone, Razor said to Billy and the others. "Hehhehh... I'm actually feeling happy that finally a person with a power rating of 95 is here... but unfortunately, since Shekai has successfully completed his task, now i have to leave."
"What do you mean??" Billy asked.
Razor replied. "The Holy Knight has been captured without a fight... And one of your members has been eliminated."
"W-what?" Billy was stunned, as were Max and Miran.
"Okay, see you later." Then Razor punched the ground with his fiery punch which caused an explosion, and after that, finally Razor's figure disappeared. His departure from that place mean that the battle was over.
Then, without thinking, Billy with his friends going to Alex's school, because they were very worried about Ryuji or Alex's condition. The three of them ran in a hurry to the place where the fight between Ryuji and Shekai had taken place, which was now already over actually
While there, Ren who had arrived first, was stunned when he saw Ryuji's body lying on the ground, then without thinking Ren immediately turned Ryuji's body and checked for signs of life from his body, and Ren felt a little relieved when he found out that there was a slight beating heart in Ryuji's chest. Therefore Ren immediately lifted Ryuji's body, and he carried him away from there.
But besides that, Ren was also disappointed that he couldn't come on time to help Ryuji or Alex. His late arrival had made Ryuji lost and Alex was completely taken away by the enemy.
Long story short, move to another place, or rather to the headquarters of the Sword of Freedom group which is an abandoned building. In Jefirros' room, Alex who was unconscious was put in the middle of the room by Derris and Shekai, then Jefirros approached them with a happy smile, and his eyes only focused on Alex who was lying on the floor.
"Hmm. Truly impressive... You have successfully brought the Holy Knight before me. With him in here, our goal will soon be achieved." Said Jeffiros.
Meanwhile, in front of Jefirros, stood 4 of his confidants, namely Derris, Catherine, Shekai, and Razor. The four of them felt proud of each other after getting compliments from Jeffiros.
"It was all thanks to Shekai's plan. Without him, we would never have been able to get the Holy Knight." Said Catherine.
"Hmm, how lucky I am to have you in this group Shekai." Jeffiros said.
"Heh, you're praising him too much Boss." Derris said.
Razor said. "Hey, I'm the one who has the most role here... If I don't buy you time, then the arrow girl and the water sword wielder will definitely thwart your plans."
Then Catherine replied to Razor's words, "Hey, if Derris and I don't threaten Alex, then this plan will definitely fail. Because it will gettin worse case scenario if he put up a fight."
"Enough! The reason why we were able to succeed is because we work together. You all have an important role to play in achieving this result." Shekai said.
Then they all fell silent after hearing those words from Shekai, and Jeffiros added.
"Hmm, yes, that's right... Let's not argue anymore. Now it's best if we prepare everything for tomorrow's Demon King awakening ceremony, as for this kid, we put him in an isolation room, then watch over him until he wakes up."
"Okay Boss." Say Derris and Catherine.
Then Shekai also picked up and carried Alex out of the room, so that now there were only 2 people left, namely Razor and Jefirros. But when Razor was also about to leave the room, Jefirros immediately stopped his steps and asked him to chat.
"Razor."
Then while Turning his head Razor said, "What?"
"Why don't you ever answer my calls?"
"Hey, have you forgotten... I once said that you are not my boss, I joined this group because you promised that we would rule this country."
"It will happen soon, be patient! ... As you know, I never told you to call me Boss. But I only asked that you could respect me more." Said Jefirros.
"Hmm, yes I once respected you... I still remember when you picked me up from the underground battle place, then you made me a confidant, and you gave me the fire relic so that I could become the strongest person here... But since the war that happened between our group against the Wind Faction a few years ago, now you've changed."
"Change? What do you mean?"
"The Sword of Freedom group used to be victorious and had many members! We often caused chaos everywhere to make the government anxious! But you, who used to be a brave leader, are now always afraid to act! So this group rarely acts and always moving from one place to another places like cockroaches... Even you are afraid of Billy's figure! So for months, we just live aimlessly, while you just sit here staring at the pagoda relic."
"I- I... still feel guilty that we lost so many members back then."
"Get rid of that feeling! All the members of this group is willing to sacrifice for you! For the purpose you've promised to us! Don't compare our group to the Wind Faction! You always said that we were destined to become rulers... I know that you have been influenced by the words from Shinfu lyoto before his death. Forget those words and continue to focus on our goal." Razor said as he walked away from the room.
And a few moments later after Razor left, Jefirros was pensive while wandering about Shinfu lyoto's last words to him. ("Jefirros, I know that your intentions are great. You want the sword race to live on equal with the human race… But we don't need to show or prove that we are a superior race, our job is only to protect humanity from the shadow demons, then live well with them. Wouldn't that be better? ...You can't rule by spreading fear, moreover using the Demon King as your weapon. That will only make you a slave to the Demon King, and this world will slowly crumble because of you. Is that what you want?")
Then After he finished remembering those words that had always haunted him, with a serious face, Jefirros began to make up his mind again, and he said to himself.
"No, I will not bring destruction to this world. The demon king will not be able to control me, but I will be the one who will master the power of the demon King... And I will make this world bend to its knees to me, especially to the entire sword race, so all the sword race can be the most superior race in this world." That is the determination of Jefirros who has now returned.
Meanwhile, move on to another place. In a suburban clinic building, there is a special room inside, which is used to treat patients from the sword race or shield race. Currently, in the room, Ryuji was lying in a bandaged body and his hands were infused too. He has received treatment from the doctor on duty at the place.
