Chapter 185: Fallen star (2)

...

At the same time, in the sky of the 2nd site, lightning came down from the skies. As he felt the rain coming down at him, Budda looked out to the front.

‘It’s tomorrow. I don’t have much time.’

He was looking upon the inner castle of the 2nd site that should have been invaded three days ago according to the plan. The fight went on for a week. Followers and Vicegerents of the 2nd site fought valiantly and even when they only had a slight chance of winning, it seemed like they had no fear.

Budda spat on the ground and looked at Kashim who stood next to him.

“Hey. How much world power does Master have now? Do you have a recording?”

Kashim answered, “25 thousand middle-ranking Gods and 12 hundred high-ranking Gods. He also absorbed two of the 8 Gods of <Depth>. Do you need records of the low-ranking Gods too?”

“No. They don’t change a thing.”

Budda didn’t look away from the front and calculated.

’25 thousand middle-ranking Gods, 12 hundred high-ranking Gods and two of the 8 Gods.’

If the average world power was correct, it was not enough to open the Great Realm yet. They needed at least two more out of the 8 Gods of<Depth> to complete their plans. If everything went as planned, Droyan of the 2nd Site and Anonymous of the 7th site should’ve worked, but…

‘Gerome is unreachable from the 7th site.’

Budda knew Anonymous well. Two Lords and one Captain were enough to take him out. And Gerome had power not too far behind Budda himself. However, he couldn’t get into contact with Gerome right now.

‘Did he betray us?’

Budda bit his lips. If Gerome betrayed them, things might change. Even if Budda defeated the God of Dragons, they still needed one more.

‘That damn God of Dragons is still… huh?’

Budda suddenly frowned. It seemed like he had sensed something bad, and his eyes began to shake. Budda spoke with a heavy voice.

“I’m going in.”

“…Now? But the rain…”

“I know it’s the raining season.”

It was an unspoken rule to not fight during the raining season, but…

“It’s not important right now. I must go now.”

Kashim became silent and nodded.

“Okay. I’m going in with you.”

“No. You all go back.”

Kashim frowned, “What are you…”

“It’s an order. Go back to headquarters. Or just stay as far as you can from this site.”

There was no such thing as order between Captains. Order? Kashim then realized Budda’s desperation. 1st Captain Budda was a powerful man that could handle all the Captains at once. If he was this serious, then there must be a reason.

“GO ON! I can’t let you all become mixed up in this!”

“…Okay. I will move as far as I can and stay on guard.”

Kashim then began to move out with the rest of Rupture. The place they left was barren, or the lands of war. Soon, someone walked out from the fortress of the 2nd site.
