Chapter 71
[Ah, no!! No!! I can’t die like this! ......Aaagh!!]
With the sound of gunfire, the body of the last remaining abomination on the surface exploded.
The Ketraatus member silently reloaded his magazine and approached Iomene.
"There are no more demon worshippers left on the surface."
"I can no longer sense anything either."
Despite her extremely sensitive detection abilities, nothing was being picked up anymore. The foul stench was still rising from below, but that was something Grand Master Al Maday and his men would handle.
Iomene gazed at the pillar of light illuminating the entire city.
With those who needed to hide no longer able to do so, the work had become too easy.
The saint was, in a sense, still protecting the people of the city, even while collapsed.
She stared at the pillar of light with a pious heart for a moment, when suddenly sharp noises and screams began to reach Iomene's ears.
"Filthy, disgusting labor theorists!! Reactionaries!! You filthy, vile, worm-like scum!! Look at what you’ve done to the city!!"
Police officers, armed with handguns and submachine guns, were pointing their weapons at the citizens and workers, screaming in rage.
"To think the demon worshippers were hiding among you! You bastards!! I knew it! You all are trying to destroy Scrap Yard!"
At those words, the workers began murmuring and backing away, but the police seemed uninterested in letting them go.
"What are you doing! Shoot! Shoot them all and throw these labor theorists into the prison camps!!"
The situation was on the brink of exploding.
"Stop."
At Iomene's command, the Ketraatus members moved quickly.
The sound of heavy footsteps drew near, and the police, who were about to pull their triggers, froze.
"Pantheon! It’s perfect timing! Help us capture these guys!! They were hiding demon worshippers among them!!"
The Ketraatus members looked at the workers.
The workers trembled even more under their cold stares.
"According to the Codex Prolilium, they are all targets for arrest. We must arrest them and investigate whether they’ve been tainted by dark magic."
What do you think?
