Just as he wanted to continue, the phone in his pocket started ranging. Old Billy took out and carefully pressed the answer button. Because he used to press the wrong button before as he was new to technological things like smart phone even if he still has a very good eyesight due to being a Tier Two being.
"Sir Billy, we have found out the possible reason. There is a faint smell of demons in the air around the town here. It could be demons invasion but."
Billy asked, "What is the problem son? You don't have to feel guilty for anything. You can report what you are seeing now to me. Truthfully. You get it, son?"
"Sir Billy, we indeed have a big problem here. We haven't found any living person here, not even their remains. It is as if some unknown force had vanished everyone here. And when we searched inside the town, we couldn't feel any presence of the demon."
Billy sighed and ordered, "I understand. Son, now you inform other people to come back first. Don't do anything stupid out of guilty. This is already something out of our ability."
"But Sir, if we search again carefully."
"I said son, this is the order. Now, go and inform everyone to come back."
After Billy hanged up the phone, he turned his face to look at his old friend who was sitting beside him. Micheal was silently watching at a bird on a tree and listening for the possible good news. He was expecting to hear a good news too. Unfortunately, it wasn't.
Billy said, "Don't blame me Micheal. This is not something we can handle by ourselves. Now, we can only wait for the reinforcement."
Miguel nodded and expressed his understanding. Although he was feeling the unbearable heartache inside, he still understood the situations and didn't want to put the lives of other people in danger. Especially, when it was the helpless fight. However, he really felt heartache and headache because almost fifty officers went missing after entering the town.
Billy stood up and went inside the Chapel quickly after saying, "Wait a moment, Micheal. I will report the situation here to above. If we are lucky, someone will come soon. For now, we can only pray Tina, that kid should be able to hold on until that time."
Soon, a mission appeared on the Origin Church's internal network. But nobody was picking it because it was not a simple investigation mission. It could involve lives, and besides, the weaker ones might not be able to find out anything. Although the rewards were great, only the living being could enjoy the resource after all.
Miguel remembered a sentence inside the book of Missing continents. It was said by the daughter of Lewis to the king of Lucas when they were visiting the Lucada continent.
