As Devon watched the detonation, he did not bother to hide his scorn as he frowned,

"Sickening. Sacrificing your own people. Absolutely sickening" he said with his voice imbued with cosmic energy so that it boomed out over the noise of battle all the way to the Grand tent of the Dystopian camp. Inside which the General and her commanders still were.

That's right, they were yet to make an appearance.

But now they walked out of the tent with the General smiling in amusement, 

"Sickening? Is it really that different from the effects of your traps which saw to the death of your own men. At least our plan does not kill one of our own. I'll do all I can to win.

And in case you have not noticed...." The General said as though she was  enjoying an inside joke and she gestured to the transformed Dystopians, 

"... They are not Dystopians" she revealed.

Devon's eyes widened, 

"What?" He asked in incredulity and the General chuckled, 

As she did, the rest of the suicide bombers continued to rampage the battlefield and it was quite troublesome to deal with them.

For one thing, no attack below the A-class could affect them. They simply bounced off their entrusted shells and even A-class experts were no longer ready to strike them as that would detonate them. The whole situation was distracting and the Dystopians were quick to take advantage.

They did not need to be worried.

They could not be affected by the blast and were free to fight indiscriminately.

*Boooommmm!!!*

*Boooommmm!!!*

Another two were detonated but not by Haronians who were now at their wits end on what to do against these troublesome opponents, but instead by Dystopians themselves.

After all, since they had no reason to fear from the resultant blast, why then should they hold themselves back.

The vicious smiles on their face were enough to make any neutral onlooker finally believe the Haronian stereotypes about the Dystopians being more like beasts looking for nothing more than carnage and Distability.

Meanwhile, while all this was going on, the General continued her revelation.

"Every single one of them is a human slave. We have to find some use for them, and after much 'convincing ' they were more than happy to die for the good of Dystopia"

Indeed, when Devon and the Haronian commanders looked at the suicide bombers closely, they did indeed notice that their hard encrusted shells and certain features aside, they indeed were human slaves.

"Bastards" Aulich Silva said and did not wait for Devon's command before he dashed forward towards the grinning Dystopian general and her commanders.

Devon rolled his eyes at the act of insubordination before ordering the other commanders to attack while he and the Dystopian general continued to have a staredown.

Meanwhile, Hal and Melinda had sought every Dystopian C-class expert not involved in the deciding battle because they are battling Haronian C-class experts and proceeded to kill them all before Hal sent their bodies into the Beast habitat.

And now they walked towards the battle that was already in full swing and quickly and fairly easily spotted the area where Haronian C-class experts were rallying together.

The Dystopian C-class experts were doing the same. but both Hal and Melinda were quick to take their eyes off them as they were far from being the highlight of the battle; that was clearly reserved for the commanders now clashing in large-scale battles that were harming everyone in their environs indiscriminately.

"There you are. And oh look, you found a friend" said a voice Hal recognized, and his head turned to come face to face with Reyna who was not more than a few meters away from him.

Clearly, Reyna had utilized the concealment Artifact she had to once again sneak upon him.

Melinda frowned because now that Reyna was no longer attempting to hide her cultivation, it was clear that she was at the mid-stage Of the Aurora Beast realm.

Of course, it isn't that she was worried as she and Hal had together been able to take care of the Lieutenant who was one stage above Reyna in cultivation but even then, Melinda could not shake the disturbing feeling she was having.

"Reyna" Hal acknowledged her presence before she smiled and said, 

"How about a rematch? But this time, you don't get to run away"

Reyna transformed into her hybrid form and dashed towards Hal to strike him with her claws.

Melinda scoffed in annoyance.

"What am I, invisible?" She said with a frown and swung her summoned cosmic Armament towards Reyna who twisted effortlessly to avoid it and kick the golden-eyed lady.

*Bam*

Melinda managed to plant her legs firmly in the ground to keep from continuous sliding. She took solace in the fact that while she had not managed to strike this dragon lady (yes, she knew Reyna had dragon blood) she had succeeded in stopping her from striking Hal.

Graceful as Reyna was, she could not strike Hal accurately while kicking Melinda at the same time.

Hal took the time to leap back and summon his cosmic Armament and also withdraw the Broadsword artifact from his inventory.

Reyna created a flaming sword and a flaming spear and then controlled both weapons to fight alongside her.

However, she got a surprise when both flaming weapons became white and turned against her.

Reyna instinctively knew how dangerous the flames were now that control was wrestled from her and her eyes turned towards Melinda who she knew was responsible.

Faster than she could hope to evade, the flames caught up with her and exploded at point-blank range. Although he knew it could not be so easy, Hal actually thought for a minute that that was it.

Then right at the center of the explosion, orange flames that had been the color of Reyna's flames grew brighter and brighter by the second as they fought against the explosive power of Melinda's ordinance-induced flames.

Before Melinda could take control of the flames as Reyna knew she would, the dragon lady had blasted through it with the whole of her body now covered in black dragon scales.

Only her face was visible and not even totally as the scales looked to have crept closer to covering it as well.

Some parts of the scales were charred but they were still holding strong. Clearly well up to the task of defending her from Melinda's flames.

"As expected of an ancient beast bloodline, the defense is nothing to scoff at" Melinda mumbled with a frown.

At the same time which Reyna's claws ripped through Hal or at least it seemed to until her attack went right through.

At first, she thought it was an afterimage and while it was a testament to his speed, it was not to the extent to make her worried.

However, that train of thought left when the 'Afterimage' which she now noticed had Dark eyes as opposed to Hal's normal sapphire blue, smiled at her and waved...

*Swish*

... Right as another Hal suddenly came from behind her, also with Dark eyes to match his smiling twin, and swung his deadly-looking scythe.

Reyna's eyes widened and she meant to escape the strike and then retaliate with a hard punch once Hal's attack had missed but once again as it had been with the twin, her attack went right through him like an Afterimage she knew he was not.

*Bam!*

Reyna felt it all over her body as the force of the punch from the teal Hal radiated outward and not only blasted her away, it seemed to numb her completely.

And even then, she had no idea what was going on.
