Finding a Better Method

After Irving explained how he had defeated Elder Howard, Aron and Benjamin finally arrived at his side. Although Aron and Benjamin hadn't witnessed the recent battle between Irving and Elder Howard, they could sense the lingering dark energy in the air.

Benjamin directly asked Irving, "You must have successfully defeated a Night Blades elder, right? From the dark energy left behind, I can tell that even if this elder wasn't eliminated, he has suffered significant injuries."

Irving smiled and nodded. "You're right. In the recent battle, I managed to seriously injure Elder Howard. However, I believe we need to switch to a better method for our next actions. The Night Blades won't let us rescue Nick easily! They will undoubtedly take him to a location that is harder for us to find."
