[Damn that Oberth!] Danson cursed . Though Danson had the appearance of a brute, he was still the Swordsmen’s Guild Master . He knew his limits, especially when he was planning to deal with the Magician Guild Master’s son . He had no intentions to end the poor boy’s life . All he wanted to do was to frighten Oberth with the pressure from his sword aura and teach the kid a lesson .
[Then again… I used the same amount of sword aura on Ye Chui and he did not even flinch . Ye Chui even took it with a smile . Who knew that Oberth would just up and die . Bleeding through all his holes to death!? He died all by himself so why blame me? I am not responsible for his suicide . ]
“You… you went too far……” Oupu was furious . Glared at Dunson . Ran to Oberth’s side and inspected the injury . Finally, when his hands laid bare on Oberth’s body, he was saddened to find that it was already stiff . [He’s gone… My boy…] Oupu wept bitterly as his arm wrapped around his son, hoping to hold on to the last remnants of heat his son once had .
Dunson held his scalp and held an apologetic face . He wanted to scare Oberth when he found out that he stole the Magic Stone . But, once remembering that the
[This damned boy!] Dunson cursed once again and revised his thoughts .

Even if he were to fight Oupu to death later, he did not regret killing the boy . So he turned his head towards Eric: “City Lord, what should we do now?”
Eric was also surprised when Dunson killed Oberth just now . But the boy is already dead . Being the city lord, Eric had to think of the balance between the city’s higher strata . Usually, he did not stand on Dunson’s side for fairnesses sake but this time it was different . What Oberth did has put the lives of over 20,000 citizens at risk! So he supported Dunson killing Oberth .
After a moment of hesitation, he ordered: “Balmain, announce the news of the incoming Magic Beast Tide to the public . Send orders to prepare for evacuation . Keep the law and order avoiding chaos during the evacuation . ”
“Yes!” Balmain replied and left immediately .
Everyone around the scene was all afraid . They all wanted to flee for their lives . The danger is upon them, so they started to leave in flocks in order to prepare for evacuation . Yet, some remained determined to face the Magic Beast Tide . they were waiting for City Lord Eric’s instructions .
Eric started: “Dunson, gather all the Swordsmen outside the city wall . We will work together with City Lord’s Guards . ”
Stan City is their home . The city might be razed down to ashes by the end of the Beast Tide . Even so, neither Eric or Dunson want to leave . They might not withstand the Beast Tide but at least they can buy some time for the people to evacuate .

“Yes!” Dunson said with vigor . He turned around to enter the Swordsmen’s Guild to gather the Swordsmen .
Eric arrived at Oupu’s side . With Oupu still grief-stricken, Eric knew that Oupu might not be able to handle anything right now . Hence he approached Diya and said: “you gather everyone from the Magicians’ Guild outside the city wall . We must resist the Magic Beasts together . ”
“Yes… Yes . ” Diya was still grasping the situation and nodded subconsciously .
Stan City had four mighty organizations . The first was Swordsmen’s Guild which had 30,000 Swordsmen registered to be hired . Of which The Mercenary Guild, which is supporting the Swordsmen’s Guild, and have 4300 heads who are under Dunson’s direct command .
The second is the City Lord’s Manor . It had the City Lord’s Guard . They can be considered as the Stan City’s civil forces which numbered 700 . Most of them are Swordsmen, and all of them are under the City Lord Eric .
Then we have the Magicians’ Guild . The number of Magicians registered under the Guild are over a hundred people . However, the number of people that officially work for the Magicians’ Guild is only about 30-40 people . Although the number is small, it might is nothing to joke about .
Lastly the Church of Light . It has numerous followers . And amongst them are Swordsmen, Magicians, healers, and many other professionals . Most important are the Priests who can tap into the mysterious power of faith . The Bishop has 200 followers under his direct command .

“City Lord Eric…” Bishop Faria was a little hesitant . He firmed up his resolve in a moment and said, “may the light of the Seven Gods bless you . But I fear that the citizens would be attacked by the Magic Beasts during the evacuation . So I decided that the church will take the responsibility of protecting during their evacuation and ensure their safety until they find a sanctuary . ”
Hearing the Bishop’s words everyone stared at him except Oupu . everyone had only one thought [you just don’t want to face the Beast Tide alongside the city and want to flee! And you make it sound like you are doing a favor to others? Just say you want to flee, damn it!]
Eric’s eyes become cold: “Bishop, the strength of the church is immense . I request you to unify its members outside the city . ”
“The Seven Gods blesses the people . He does not want his devotees to be hurt . We must protect his devotees at all costs . His will is to protect those that are evacuating . ” Faria said without a single change in his serene voice .
No one knew what to say anymore .
[Flee If You Want To Flee, Why Blame the Gods?]
“Bishop Faria, I never would have thought that you are so shameless!” Eric was angry . He kept staring at the Black Clothed Bishop .
Faria smiled and kept silent . But then he moved straight towards Ye Chui . Smiling he said to Ye Chui: “the will of the Seven Gods moves the world . May the Seven Gods bless you . I, the Bishop, will fulfill his command . Are you willing to serve the Seven Gods to your best of abilities in protecting the citizens?”
Everyone was dumbfounded . No one understood why Faria would say that to Ye Chui . Why would Faria invite Ye Chui at this time?
Ye Chui understood the Faria’s meaning after a brief contemplation . He laughed with valor and spoke to Faria: “why beat around the bush? Just say that you want the Enchanted Weapon in my hand . ”
Enchanted Weapon!
Faria wanted Gatling in Ye Chui’s hand . He has seen the might of this Enchanted Weapon, making him greedy . If he had this Killing Machine in his hand then he will be able to escape the Beast Tide half the effort . The people present thought that the Bishop had a thick face when he said he wanted to escort the citizen away to safety . They were proven wrong . That did not even compare to how thick his face was .
Bishop Faria smiles and nods: “may the Seven Gods bless you . The Gods have blessed you with the ability to create such wonders . Now, then, are you willing to dedicate your strength doing the Gods’ word?”
“Ha ha . ” Ye Chui smiled at Faria, “I don’t think so . ”
