Frontline, a small hill.
"So… all of them got killed, and we didn't get a single message at all?"
While looking at the piles of skulls and bones scattered all around the area outside the city walls, Nathan questioned the general.
"T-this!?"
Even the general was shocked at this sight.
In order to avoid drawing Abella's attention, he had stationed a small battalion of soldiers nearby to monitor the city.
However, it turned out that all of those soldiers had not only died, but also had their corpses completely consumed, leaving only their bones.
They didn't even get the time to send an emergency signal back.
Upon witnessing this devastating scenery, all the soldiers accompanying the group this time felt immense fear.
The only reason they haven't run off yet is because strong people like Nathan and Jareth are standing in front of them right now.
