Chapter 40: Battle of Kalren City 2/2

In another part of the city, a group of men was moving quickly.

In the middle of them, a silver hair young man was advancing with a frown in his face.

It was Herald, the City Lord's son.

Herald: How long until we reach him?

Men 1: Five minutes, young master. Don't worry, I left two of my men watching him.

Herald nodded.

When the city lord learned that Delirious had separated from Brock and Marcel, he instantly sent some of his men to catch him under Herald's lead.

Herald and his father could not believe that an opportunity like this had come. They had already almost given up on getting the S-rank sword, but this opportunity fell from the sky.

But Herald was a bit nervous. He was still not sure about this operation. However, his father told him last night that none of the three were most probably not related to any known demigod nor nobles in Fordalt.

Of course, there was the possibility of him being mistaken or the three were using fake surnames, but his father was just a few step away from becoming a demigod himself. With that Sword, he had a high chance of becoming a demigod.

Note, that the City Lord's purpose about the sword was not just of its capabilities but the properties in there. The mana within inside was so large that it will accelerate him towards Demigod level in a fast rate unless using an artifact to take out the magic energy out of the sword.

Also, he still wants the sword because of the unknown metal it has.

Although he would antagonize an A-rank practitioner to get it, the city lord thought that the opportunity was worth taking the risk.

While Herald was thinking about the plan in his mind, one of the people in their group stopped abruptly.

Herald was startled. He looked back only to realized that it was Skyler.

Strangely, she had turned completely pale.

Herald: What happened?

Skyler: My sister. I lost contact with the people guarding her. Wait a moment, I'll contact someone nearby!

Skyler grabbed a communication stone put mana into it, but thirty seconds later, she stumbled back in fear.

Skyler: They are dead... the people guarding Gracie are all dead, and she is not there!

Herald wrinkled his brows. 'Damn it, at this timing!'

Skyler: No, something happened to her! I must go back!

She said with an anxious look.

Herald: Skyler!

Herald: I'm sorry, young master, but my sister is first!

She said firmly. For some reason, she thought about the dream her sister told her a few days ago.

'The shadows...'

Skyler had a bad feeling. Her instincts were warning her that she must do something before it's too late.

But when she was about to leave-
