The commander's brows knitted, his hand folding into a tight fist as anger coursed through him.
The revelation that an HS had fallen to a demon was both repulsive and infuriating, stirring the commander's anger. Though it was neither the first time such a tragedy had occurred nor the first life a demon had claimed, the bitterness of it remained undiminished.
Finding out the HS had been killed by a demon, of course they all naturally concluded it had to be one of the 16 demons. But for what? Why?
According to the report, none of the villagers seemed to have died except for four little boys along with the 12 demons. If the villagers had been spared, then for what reason had the demon killed the HS? Did they engage in a fight?
