LAST THORN & MISFORTUNE

AN ABANDONED village.

The Saanya Desert was protected by a strong illusion magic that made it look like the desert was empty.

However, Alucard– the demon– managed to break the spell.

But what greeted them was an abandoned village.

"There's no sign of life in here," Nero said, frowning. "Keep your guards up, everyone."

He couldn't also detect the divine power that was supposed to have fallen on the desert. The entire place was so quiet that it was unnerving.

"It's a beautiful night to eliminate Princess Neoma from this world."

Nero looked up because the voice who dared to say those words came from above him.

He wouldn't say that he was surprised to see Calyx Dalton– suspended in the air, a pair of black crow wings keeping him afloat.

[Only that crazy bastard would say that about Neoma right in front of my face.]

Calyx Dalton appeared to be alone, but there was something strange about his aura.
