Looking at the string of notifications. Shin muttered, "That's the end of all the nearby demons."
'I should check whether Alice and the others are done on their side.' As soon as that thought crossed his mind, Shin felt his telepathic link connect.
[Shin! We are done with the energy. The artifact is not here.] It was Alice's voice.
[Yeah, that's fine. I also thought of a way to deal with all the demons inside the city.] Shin replied.
[Really? That's good. Then come here fast.] This time, it was Aurora's voice.
[On my way.]
Shin looked at the pile of demons' bodies and raised his hand toward them.
"Devourer's Touch."
Recovering his stamina and mana back, Shin flew back toward the girls.
When he arrived there, he saw the girls were outside the building and there was also a man following behind.
'What's the situation?'
As soon as he landed, he sensed something and looked at Alice in surprise.
"It seems this time it brought great benefits."
Alice nodded shyly. "Yeah,"
Before Shin could ask more, the man behind came up to him and started speaking. "Are you with them?"
Shin raised his brow and didn't answer him. Instead, he looked at the girls, waiting to explain the situation.
"Just ignore him," Alice said nonchalantly, which made Carnell's face darken.
Shin expected Alice's answer to be something along those lines, that's why he looked at Aurora.
Understanding his gaze, Aurora explained, "He is someone from the association. He wants us to work with him to solve this crisis."
When Shin saw the man's uniform, he already knew that he was from the association and this wasn't a surprise since this place was blocked by the association since this morning.
But what made him feel weird was the request he made to the girls.
Turning to look at the middle-aged man whom he kept waiting for all this time, Shin said, "Yeah, I'm with them. Who are you?"
Seeing that Shin was willing to talk, Carnell smiled and raised his hand for a handshake while introducing himself.
"I'm Carnell Bronsky, Deputy Chief of Polaris City Awakened Association branch."
Shin didn't embarrass him and shook his hands. The main reason was that Shin could feel that Carnell wasn't a threat to him. Also, he was curious about what Carnell wanted to do.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Shin Wolner, the Guild Master of Astros Guild."
Carnell immediately noted the guild's name inside his mind.
When he saw that Shin was so cooperative, he felt very happy. After all, for the last few minutes, he had tried talking to the girls, but none of them responded to him.
This made him very depressed and angry, but he could only swallow back the curses and keep trying.
Now that Shin was talking to him. Maybe things can work out.
'I also need to find my subordinates and then think of a way to solve this crisis.'
'That Silver haired girl is strong. Maybe an S-Rank. I don't know about others, but if she works with us, maybe we can think of a way to counter the demons.'
Even if he knew that Shin was the Guild Master, he didn't think that Shin would be much stronger. After all, he had already guessed Shin's ability when he saw him flying down the sky.
'With his ability, he could be useful as a scout.'
As for the other two girls, he wasn't sure. But assumed they wouldn't be that strong. After all, having an S-Rank in a guild is already amazing enough. But in the current situation, even little help is needed.
With all those thoughts inside his mind, he looked at Shin solemnly, hoping to bring them together.
"Mr. Shin, as you know, things are very dire. So on behalf of the association -"
Before he could continue further. Carnell felt an extremely dangerous aura from the side. The killing intent and extreme blood lust made his legs go numb.
'What going on? Did a powerful demon come here?'
His entire body was covered in cold sweat, and his face became pale.
"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!"
He heard an extremely cold voice full of killing intent.
When Carnell turned his head mechanically to look at the source of that voice. He was stunned.
'What going on?'
It was the same Silver-haired girl with whom he wanted to work a moment ago. 'Although she was a little indifferent and cold, she wasn't so terrifying.'
'Did I misspeak? How did I offend her?'
Carnell's mind was working hastily, thinking of a way to remedy the situation. But then he felt something was wrong.
'No, what's the situation?'
He felt the killing intent was terrifying, but it wasn't directed at him.
***
Aurora looked at Shin with dangerous eyes, her breathing intensified, as her fingers trembled then clenched into fists she asked in a low, but extremely chilly voice, "Are you from Wolner Clan?"
Shin noticed her abnormality, and Alice also looked at her with a frown.
'Did those bastards do something bad again?'
He felt it was extremely likely that his clan members did something to Aurora. After all, he also understood the situation of martial artists, mages, and vampires.
*Sigh*
Sighing, Shin decided to explain his situation to Aurora clearly. From Aurora and Emily's reaction, he can pretty much figure out that this feud wasn't simple.
"Yes, although I'm from that clan-" Before Shin could explain his situation. His Enhanced Senses gave him danger warning.
He reflexively raised a water barrier.
*Boom*
*Boom*
*Boom*
*Boom*
A few blood bullets were blocked by the water barrier. Looking at it, his eyes widened and he almost cursed. "What the."
But Aurora didn't stop there. She pressed her hands together and the next moment, a spear of blood shot from the ground.
Shin controlled his water barrier to block the attack.
