Hearing that shocking declaration from Chris, Dalton's eyes trembled a bit but he immediately regained back his composure.
"The King's order I got is totally valid with His Majesty's golden seal. I believe His Majesty has His own reasons for sending us for this operation. Even if His Majesty wanted us to sacrifice our life, we will give Him our life." said Dalton with a firm attitude.
"Hmm... You are quite loyal to the King and trusted him a lot huh?" said Chris.
"His Majesty gave us a new life. Without Him, we will remain as some sort of unlimited meat supplies for that hellish human flesh farm. We owe him our lives." said Dalton.
"I see. It's a pleasure for me to know how loyal you are to The King of the Kingdom. But as you are saying all these to me, have you ever seen him directly face to face without that tiger mask? Or rather, do you even realize who I am?" said Chris.
"I..."
Without giving Dalton any chance to respond, Chris stood up and walked towards a safe box behind, he opened the safe box with his handprint and took out two small jewelry boxes.
He placed the jewelry boxes on the conference table.
"Open the boxes." said Chris to Dalton.
C-760 partially released the movement restrictions magic on Dalton as instructed by K.
Staring hard at the two boxes, Dalton carefully opened the boxes one by one. After taking a clear look at the contents of the boxes, he was shocked.
Inside one of the boxes, there are three rings, where one of them is the tiger ring that Chris had shown once, while inside the other box, it's a platinum seal that is crafted into a tiger shape and adorned with black gems which glow with red radiance.
Seeing the rings and the seal while recalling all the previous words from Chris, Dalton kneeled down and bowed to Chris with his head touching the floor. K and C-760 who was sitting on the chair stood up and gave Chris a formal bow...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After that meeting with K and C-760, the Immortals decided that they will let Dalton and his people to stay in Alliance Kapis sub-quarter for the time being, in order to ensure the safety of all the survivors of the squad.
As soon as they sent away K and the others, the Immortals have another small meeting among themselves.
"Tsk... He said that their squad had indeed been accidentally teleported to a desert once before they re-sent them to the correct destination. I seriously doubt if this sort of accident would even happen, since only the most professional individuals will be chosen to operate the teleportation machine." said Sky, stating out his concerns.
"I doubt about that as well, but if it's not an accident, it will mean that no matter who is behind this conspiration, they are messing around with the lives of those hundred people in the squad." said Chris, who sounds a bit angry.
"Mmm... That's terrible. Who would have done such an awful thing?" said Maria, equally upset.
"Furthermore, they are using the name of the King of the Kingdom. This is a really serious matter." said Ben.
"Hah... They are all great fighters with great potentials... I didn't save them from that human flesh farm just to let them lose their lives in such a ridiculous way..." said Chris in a shaky tone as his eyes slightly turned golden-red.
"Chris, calm down." said Sky as he lightly patted Chris's hand to comfort him a bit.
Ben stood up and walked towards a mini refrigerator in the meeting room and took a can of iced tea for Chris.
"Thanks... Sorry for losing my composure just now. Now with this serious situation right now, I was wondering if we should put the Dracula's matters aside first to solve our current problems." said Chris as he opened up the can of iced tea and drinks it.
"No, I disagree with that. The Dracula's situation is equally dire as well. We are unable to predict what will happen if we delay it furthermore." said Ben.
Hearing that, Chris remained silent as he clenched his right fist, his eyes filled with frustration and anxiousness.
"Actually, I have thoughts about this. I was planning to return to Null Dimension for a while to check out for the condition at there right now. And now with this sudden situation happening, I think I might as well investigate about this matter too, my instinct told me that it has something to do with the incident in Null Dimension." said Sky out of the blues.
"Hmm? Are you serious about that? You do realize that it could be a very tedious job, don't you?" Ben asked, a bit surprised and questioning about Sky's decision.
"Yes, I am well aware of that. Don't worry, it's not like I am going to do this alone, I will be bringing Maria with me, and Seiryu will be with me as well." said Sky.
"I see. I guess you have been thinking thoroughly about that decision after all. Now, there is another issue. You still remember that Terrence blocked the link between Kapis and Null Dimension, right? Are you planning to forcibly break through it?" Ben asked, double confirming with Sky.
"Well, I believe that should not be a big problem, after all, they are still able to randomly send a whole squad of fighters from Kingdom HQ to Kapis, I doubt if Terrence's magic block actually serves its purpose. Furthermore, we have a very capable dimensional connector with us right now." said Chris, low-keyly approving Sky's suggestion...

Sky: "Ah... Haha. Yes, as Chris said."
Chris: "But look out, those scums might change this note to their own website link. So, be cautious.
Sky : "By the way, if the cover page is the old cover page that shows two stickmen, stop reading it, it's cursed and might cause the writer to stop writing."
