Chapter 641: The End of the Second Calamity (1/2)

”What are you meaning . Don't tell me that you want to kill that traitor? I know that you are angry with him, but it is better if we leave now . There will be time to vent your anger later . Maybe this is just an excuse, and you want to recover that girl? You showed to be very protective before . ”

Gleb thought quickly about Lesta's words, and he found two possible reasons . In fact, he felt that both were correct .

After all, Pavel's betrayal was something that decided the result of the whole war, so Gleb could understand that it was a huge stain in Lesta's pride . Devy's part was even easier to understand .

”You all don't need to know the reasons, go there and fight . This is an order . ”

Gleb sighed as he knew that there was no way Lesta would admit his intentions .

”No way! That is suicide . I am definitely not going . Lesta, you need to obey us and get us out of this place now . Your disciple was a traitor, so you aren't qualified to give us orders anymore . ”

Another of the investigators spoke with rage . He wasn't the only one angry with Lesta for Pavel's betrayal, but since they still needed to rely on him to leave that battlefield, no one mentioned the topic before .

”Alright, you don't need to follow my orders . ”

Lesta spoke, and the investigator smiled with arrogance .

A second later, that investigators had been crushed into nothingness .

”Someone else chooses to not obey?”

Lesta asked without any expression on his face . He didn't seem angry, happy, or sad, just indifferent as if nothing happened . The death of one of his companions didn't have the slightest effect on his mood .

The others knew that Lesta was merciless, but they never expected that he would start to kill them if they refused to obey .

Moreover, they were under Lesta's protection, which meant that their lives were on Lesta's hands . As long as they were in that are under Lesta's control, they couldn't disobey at all, or they would die .

”Gleb will remain here . The rest of you need to go . Now!”

Going to face Yale and the others was definitely seeking death, but not obeying Lesta was immediate death, so that time, everyone obeyed .

The remaining investigators had two targets .

One was Devy, who was hiding behind Ange . They believed that if they used Devy as a hostage, Lesta would agree to their demands .

The other was Pavel . If Pavel was killed or at least injured enough, Lesta might feel that it was enough or even give the last blow himself .

However, they were all annihilated in an instant .

The culprits were the fake Shiba and Devy .

The fake Shiba crushed them to nothingness while Devy cut their heads with a huge scythe .

Gleb couldn't believe what he was seeing .

Shiba's case was one thing since he was Yale's disciple, and he already killed the Ice Goddess before . It was surprising how easily he killed them, but Gleb could understand it .

However, he couldn't explain Devy's case .

If Devy was as Lesta said, a harmless girl that couldn't injure others, she shouldn't have been able to do that . Anyway, she was releasing the aura of a True Goddess and a terrifying one, so everything that Lesta said about her was a lie, or he had been tricked by her .

Anyway, Gleb knew that she wasn't their ally . If she was that strong, she could have killed someone while they were distracted instead of attacking those on the side of the rebels .

”Lesta, why even she is betraying us . Did she also manage to trick you?”

Gleb asked that because his life was still in Lesta's hands, but he couldn't believe that Lesta had been tricked by the two closest to him .

Thus, he was avoiding to think about what he feared to be the truth, that Lesta was the one who planned the annihilation of the rebels from the start .

He didn't know if Lesta and the Council of God were collaborating or not, since Lesta made an oath, so the Council of Gods shouldn't be on good terms with him, but Lesta always said that he was on his own side, so the chances of doing it for his own purposes were high .

”Don't act like a fool Gleb . I know that you already guessed it . ”

Lesta smiled while speaking, confirming to Gleb that Lesta hadn't been tricked at all .
