[True beastman leader, Dark Lion Simba point of view]

I have lost everything. The True Beastman Group is no more as the only surviving member right now is me. No, I have to correct that statement, the only useful surviving member is me, the other are only at the level of a street thug. I should have taken Sachmis's last word more seriously, not trusting Saintess Angela and Agnes to experiment on my fellow members. Thinking back, am I bewitched by that damn witch?

I can restart back the group, using the same modus operandi as I used back then, but after what happened back at Estel, seeing all of them, fighting for one united cause, under one leader, without bothering about the small petty difference, I wonder if I should just continue all of it once more. Retiring at some random country sound nice as well.

"Hahahaha. You look positively awful Simba" [Serial killer dwarf]

"You!" [Simba]

Damn it. I halved expected that he would follow me, but thinking it will be this soon... I am not in the best condition to fight him.

(No! My life depends on this fight! I should summon Har right now!) [Simba]

"Wait. Before anything, take a look at this thing" [Serial killer dwarf]

As he says that, he throws a four arms creature right in front of me. What is that? It looks deranged. I can make out that it is a human, but something about it scream apocalyptic. For once, any normal human won't have four arms, and this thing, it's taller than your average human, no taller than your average Beastman.

"Could it be... The devil" [Simba]

"So even you think of the same thing" [Serial killer dwarf]

As he mutilated the corpse to do an autopsy, strange dark miasma are released, like a gas escaping from a tight container. While doing so

"I have a proposal for both of us" [Serial killer dwarf]

"?" [Simba]

[Rean point of view]

"I'm glad you. Guys are doing. Fine, thank god." [Kadeus]

"You aren't hurt are you Kadeus?" [Lily]

"I'm fine Lily. There's no need. To worry about. Me." [Kadeus]

"Still, your speech..." [Zerolith]

"Sorry Kadeus, if only..." [Rean]

"It's fine Rean. And you guys. As well. At least I. Am still alive" [Kadeus]

"True, but it still hard to accept such fact... Anyway, be strong! Sorry, I have to go now. Need to help Princess Diana" [Muse]

"I'll help as. Well" [Kadeus]

"Sure. You can't do the office job, but I'm sure Sir Ceanu and Crow have something in their mind that requires your assistance" [Muse]

"If that's the case, let us all go as well" [Ray]

"The orphanage have been repaired thanks to Housey and Calypso Tree, so we should help around" [Elise]

"Let's go go go" [Farhah]

Kadeus. He's acting tough isn't he. Right now, his lower half takes the form of a horse monster while his upper part still retain the human body parts of a centaur. Not only that, his speech, it just strange. He can't say more than three words at a times, like a baby just starting to learn forming a sentence

As we walk to Diana's hall, we can see that the construction of the surrounding area started to take place. The goddess treasure chest sure comes in handy.

Compare as to Motra's assault with the Holy Beast Drant, the damage this time around are lesser, with no casualties from the innocent bystander nonetheless, nothing short of a miracle, and yet

"That's the monster!"

"Go away!"

"Don't come near me!"

"Why did Princess Diana and Saintess Rumia decided to spare the twelve surviving monster!"

"Silent! They're the one that save us all! I would not tolerate any foul mouthing!" [Kebab owner stall]

"!"

As he silent the bystanders, he quickly give us some free kebabs, before telling us to go to the Diana's hall quickly, as our services are likely require, and sure enough, on our way there, Liyana's personal carriage come to fetch us up

"Sorry Kadeus, it just..." [Liyana]

"I understand that. Don't worry about. It, I can. Run faster with. This body" [Kadeus]

"I wanna ride on Kadeus back!" [Singa]

"Me two!" [Savel]

"Me three!" [Charlotte]

""You guys!!"" [Kara, Mara]

"Sure, hop on!" [Kadeus]

"""Yeah!!!""" [Singa, Savel, Charlotte]

"Is it really alright?" [Karon]

"No big deal" [Kadeus]

And inside the carriage, Liyana talk about the assault done by the prince of holy palace. According to the official report, they're the one responsible for this tragedy, and Princess Diana managed to subdue them all, but unfortunately she had to kill them as one of them run amok. Strange, Brother Ash brought them here as prisoner, and Princess Diana said that they're being placed under a maximum security prison, so how did they manage to escape and cause all of this.

(They being captured aren't made known to the public, and this incident is caused by True Beastman Group and serial killer dwarf. It doesn't make sense, unless...) [Rean]

Princess Diana, could it be, she's using the holy palace as a... If that's indeed the case, all the blame will be pushed onto them, thus...

(No. No. I'm just overthinking... Am I?) [Rean]

Arriving at the hall, all of us are quickly assign with small tasks to help around. Apparently, Princess Diana, Saintess Rumia and Sir Ceanu Reaves are talking with the other through the telephone. I wonder if something happens?

"Well, make sure to be extra careful. And by extra, I mean EXTRA CAREFUL" [Crow]

"Right!" [Other]

As the other start to leave the office,

"What's wrong Rean?" [Crow]

"Could it be, you want to be alone with me? How wonderful "No, it just that..." [Rean]

Even if I ask, I don't think they know the full details. Plus, the thought just now is mere speculation from my part

"Nothing. Please, forgive me" [Rean]

"Wait! Can't you stay here with me...? Ouch!" [Muse]

"That's enough flirting Muse. Get back to work" [Crow]

"Meanie!" [Muse]

"Hahaha..." [Rean]

Better get back to work

""Quickly"" [Lara, Nara]

"Right" [Rean]
