"You didn"t answer my question?" She asked Arkiv again.

"What?"

"Why are you sure that I wouldn"t be able to kill him?"

"Of course, I have seen him fight so many times. Most of the time, it is not others giving him a fair fight, it was him trying to make it fair for them. He has too many tricks up his sleeve and too many hidden cards. If all he wants to do is kill directly, he wouldn"t even bother fighting.

It seems like he didn"t want to go on an all-out war immediately, but you pushed him again and again."

*Snort*

She snorted and said.

"He is one man? He will wage a war against the whole city?"

Arkiv leaned back and relaxed a little bit as he looked at the ceiling.

"You will see. When are you going to release me?"

"You are not going anywhere until the end of this. You would be staying here. If you want you can train, but you wouldn"t be given any access outside."

"Sure, then what is your name?"

"Grace."

"Nice name. But I think it doesn"t suit you."

She just gave me a side-eye and didn"t speak anymore.

After a few seconds, Arkiv spoke again.

"Did you speak to your elders after you woke up?"

"No."

"How long have we been here?"

"A week."

"Then, when your elders come, after you explain the situation. Ask them if something big is going on and if it is, tell them not to panic or think it is something else. It would be him and there is a chance that it would stop if you guys send me out."

"You are not going anywhere. So shut up and stay put."

"Well, I like your race actually, that is why I am giving you a piece of advice. It is completely up to you whether you like it or not."

"You like our race?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Because you guys can fly."

"Guessed as much."

While they are having some not-so-friendly conversation, in the forest, Sam took a look at his prisoners once again and decided to take the next step.

He sent the shadow mice out and let them enter the city.

After they returned, the ghouls and Wights came out with their undead.

There are around forty undead creatures and all of them are feathered, but at this moment, Sam is only using only ten of them. He made them clean the bodies of the undead to make the wounds and the bloodstains less obvious and made them enter the city one by one.

They are flying slowly and close to the ground. They didn"t move too fast and didn"t catch too much attention.

One feathered went into the city for every hour and for the next two days, all he did is send these people without raising any suspicion.

After everyone is in their hidden position within the vegetation of the city, Sam looked at the Wights and Ghouls around him that are controlling the undead creatures with utmost concentration and gave the orders.

The Wights and Ghouls executed the orders immediately.

The Feathered started looking around, some looking into the tree trunk holes, some into the abandoned houses, and so on.

There is a metallic box inside.

They took the box and came out of their location and started walking. They didn"t even fly. They walked for a while and placed the box on the floor after opening it.

It has some grenades in it.

At this moment, they are all near the city walls where the guards are stationed and some of them are near the buildings which Sam observed to be some sort of administrative building, some of them are just aiming at the wall directly.

There is one person who is not anywhere near them, that one undead feathered is currently near the temple.

As soon as all of them reached their position, Sam gave the orders, the wights and ghouls controlled and the undead creatures threw.

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

A series of blue-colored explosions happened in various places of the city.

There are some places where the city wall was damaged and some buildings collapsed, the soldier stations were destroyed. Even though there doesn"t seem to be any death, they are injured severely and a couple of soldiers were on verge of death.

The whole city fell into panic with the flashy and dangerous blue explosions rocking their hearts. Everyone ran out of their houses to see what is happening.

At the temple, the situation is worse.

At this moment, except for the temple cleaners and others, only Arkiv and Grace are there.

They are on an upper floor and they have a faint glimpse of the entrance down below. When he saw the blue flames explosion, he couldn"t help but smile. He is extremely familiar with those blue flames and has seen what they can do.

Grace who is sitting opposite him also had an opposite reaction.

She opened her wings and wanted to get out without even caring about her naked body.

But she couldn"t, she is almost as damaged as Arkiv. She needs almost the same amount of rest like him.

"Don"t move and waste your energy. There is nothing you can do even if you have managed to go out."

"I have to see what is happening? What is that blue flame and explosion? I have to see if the city is under attack and see if I can help it."

"Well, you don"t have to go and see to know that it is an explosion. You can feel it from here. Anyway, I already told you, there is nothing you can do that your whole city can"t. Stop being so stubborn and sit down."

She wanted to refute him, but she couldn"t. She at least wanted to know what is happening.

"Don"t worry, your elders will come to meet us in a few minutes."

While he is speaking, the Black-winged man and the Grey-winged man arrived at the temple entrance, where the feathered undead is still standing.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

They hovered around him and asked coldly. But the undead didn"t speak anything and placed his fingers into the throat and took out a small scroll.

By now, they guessed that he is an undead creature, they wanted to finish him off, but before they could do so, the undead pressed against his chest.

*Boom*

Another explosion happened right in front of the temple.

At this moment, another round of explosions could be heard from all over the city.

But the only difference is, the undead that is spread all over the city are being captured and they have pin grenades in their bodies instead of the normal grenades, which is more damaging.

The Grey-winged elder looked at the scroll. His face is crunching up in fury.

He opened and the contents are simple.

"Release him now."

That is it. There is no extra information, no explanation. But at this moment both the grey winged and the black-winged understood who they are referring to and what they were asked to do.

Both of them walked into the Temple.

They reached the pool where Arkiv is still relaxing and Grace is extremely tense.

When they heard the footsteps, Grace"s eyes lit up, but Arkiv just leaned back even more and spread his arms and legs to have a more comfortable position.

"I guess the message was received." He said casually.

"So, you do know of this. There are ten explosions in the city. What are you guys thinking? Do you think we wouldn"t be able to do anything to you, just because we had an order not to kill you guys?" The grey-winged elder yelled while releasing his aura.

Arkiv looked at them calmly.

"If you really want to kill me, be my guest. I am not afraid of it. But I would suggest that you kill that guy that just bombed your city.

Even though we are not that close, I guess we can be considered friends with all the interactions we had and for this journey, we are even partners. So, if I die before he does, now he only threw ten explosions, you wouldn"t even want to imagine what he can do.

He is a crazy a.s.shole. I am telling you."

"I will send the transcendent stage cultivators to catch him now. I would like to see what he would do after he got captured and put through torture." The Grey-winged elder once again yelled and left the room.

Arkiv just chuckled and said to the Black-winged man.

"I hope you make a proper decision. If you send me now, he wouldn"t demand you to hand over whatever that weapon piece is, but he wouldn"t stop stealing it, at least you would have a fair fight without too much damage to your citizens.

But if it is too late, you wouldn"t be able to. He will stop the demands and go on a rampage. A lot of lives will be lost."
