That's when Josh turned toward the Alter Tower. There had been a sudden surge of killing intent coming from that direction. How nice of their enemies to reveal themselves!
"They're right there." He graciously pointed while grinning.
"Move out!" Roderick didn't lose any time. The faster they defeated them, the less potential damage they would cause for sure.
As they reached the Alter Tower, Josh showed slight confusion. The area around it was completely empty. The Tower looked exactly the same as it did the last time too.
"False alarm?" Roderick asked.
That's when Kasha began carefully inspecting the ground. "No, there were three people here for sure. They just removed most of their traces."
Had they entered the Alter Tower? Were they laying in ambush nearby? What was happening? What was— that's when Josh felt that something was wrong.
"RUN!" He screamed as he began running toward the exit.
