"So, you came here to get revenge, or what?"

"Hahahahahhaha. Revenge? I will for sure have it for having attacked me back in Caelora City, but this is not the reason I came here at all."

"Then why are you here?" Momentum asked. "For sure, the great Erik Romano must have some plan in mind. Honestly, I was slightly surprised you came here and even found me, but after some thought, I realized I couldn't expect less from you."

It was at that moment that those with Momentum realized who the man hiding from their sight was. They didn't know firsthand what Erik Romano could do, but they knew he was their highest-priority target.

Erik stared at the masked man before him, known only as Momentum. "I came here for information," he said.

"Information?" Momentum said. "You think I'll just tell you what you want to know?"

"You will," Erik said. "One way or another, you will give me the answers I seek." "Why are you wasting your time talking to this man, Momentum?" One of the two blackguards said: "We are three against one; if we do this together, we can apprehend him." However, Momentum didn't respond. Although his team members were not as powerful individually as the two guys with him, when united, these two stood no chance against the team.

Erik confronted a full team of blackguards-not just an ordinary one, but a large team composed entirely of elites from within the organization.

And yet, not only Erik fought toe to toe against them, but he also escaped, killed a high- ranking member of Etrium's mercenary guild, one strictly closed to them at that, and last, he killed several members of the team itself.

Erik Romano wasn't someone which Momentum and these two guys could fight, and he didn't even know if they could run from him.

Momentum tensed, preparing for a fight. He ignored what the two men said. "You're a fool if you think..."

Erik's invisible fist connected with Momentum's masked face, sending the blackguard crashing to the ground several meters away.

The sudden attack caught the two men with Momentum off guard.

They looked at each other in shock. Momentum was standing beside them. One second he was there, talking against their invisible opponent; the following one, he was traveling several meters in the air, like a rag doll falling off a cliff in a bad animated video game, and falling to the floor.

They soon realized the man in front of them, their number one enemy, was beyond anything they could handle. Without a word, they turned to flee down the tunnel, not looking back.

"Do you really think I will let you go? Momentum was already a nice catch, but there is no way I won't take the chance to get two more potato sacks full of juicy blackguards' gossip with me."

Erik watched as the two blackguards turned to flee down the tunnel.

It was then that Erik started hearing footsteps behind him. He used his instability brain crystal power to see who it was, but soon found out it was his Chimaeric Demons.

<Take care of the two men fleeing. Do not kill them.>

<Yes, Master.>

In a display of unparalleled prowess, they sped up towards the men who were attempting to escape. Their speed was awe-inspiring, defying the limits of human capability, a speed unattainable by ordinary individuals.

Within moments, the clones grabbed the struggling blackguards, knocking them out. They didn't even have time to utter a word or mount a proper defence.

It was honestly unsettling to see from the outside how strong he had been just a couple of months ago.

The blackguards crumpled to the ground unconscious, joining their comrade, Momentum, who still lay motionless on the floor.

Erik eyed the three captured blackguards, satisfied they were now incapacitated. Though his current invisible state cloaked his body, Erik knew the risk of exposing himself to capture the men. He still had his blackguard uniform on, with his codename Savage Blood on. His clones approached, awaiting further orders regarding their prisoners. Erik knew the information these blackguards held could aid the rebellion immensely.

These prisoners were not just any individuals, after all; they were high-ranking blackguards. But for now, security was paramount. Getting the prisoners to a safe location was the priority. It was of utmost importance to ensure that his involvement remained a secret, for if the enemy learned of Erik's presence within the city, it could spell disaster for him and the rebels. <Bring them out of this place. Fischer and Van Dyke will be happy to see them.>

Then Erik thought about the interrogation and what he was going to learn by simply asking questions and reading their minds.

The interrogation would require separating the prisoners, though, but that wasn't a problem at all.

<That's pretty obvious, of course.>

But that was a problem for later. Now there was something Erik had to do. Order is cloned to kill everyone and then find a reasonable way to justify his escape.

For that to work, Erik had to move to a safer area of the battlefield, telling his clones and the rebels to decrease their pressure there. When the blackguards inevitably realized they couldn't win, let him and a few of the remaining members alive leave. He couldn't be the only one to survive, right?

That would not only give him an explanation why he survived, while at least two of his two team members died, but it also would leave some people to report to the blackguards, to report about the Chimaeric Demons, to report how there was someone that could kill them, someone that could threaten their hegemony, and to let them know that their hold on the world was ending.

Erik smiled at that thought. There was still much to do and learn. Yet, for the first time, the organization of the blackguards might be fearful.

They had to. Because the grim reaper was coming, to take them all.
