"Feeling a little better?" - Kaori asked as she looked worriedly at the blond.
"Yeah, I'm not that exhausted anymore" - Cloud replied as he shook his head - "Though I still can't move easily because my mana is still not running through my whole body".
"Cloud, should we start moving to Van-chan's labyrinth?" - iru asked as she looked at the blond.
"Yeah, let's try to get as close as we can" - Cloud replied as he felt a bad feeling, but he didn't understand why.
"Are you alright?" - Kaori asked as she noticed how the blond was starting to wheeze.
"Yeah, though I feel like sothing bad might happen..." - Cloud muttered as he started to think - "Contact Rika..."
"Okay?" - Kaori nodded weakly before leaving the room. She quickly returned with the sphere and readied herself.
[Cloud? What's going on?]
"I want to know if you're in the middle of a military operation?" - Cloud said seriously.
[How did you find out? Did Kam-san inform you about the operation?]
"No, it was just a hunch" - Cloud replied while frowning - "Tell what it's about."
[ . . . ]
"Can't you talk?" - Cloud asked as he squinted his eyes.
[No, it's not that, it's just that it's simple, we're in the middle of an operation to capture Amanogawa.]
"Kouki-kun?" - Kaori asked in surprise because she didn't expect to hear that na after so long.
[Oh, is Kaori-san with you?]
"Yes, it's good to hear from you, Rika-san," Kaori replied with a small smile.
[I say the sa thing, and although I'd like to keep talking, I have a lot of work to do.]
"Rika, I'm serious, I feel you're in grave danger," said Cloud seriously.
[In danger?]
"I'm not lying, I feel that Ehit is watching you right now, in fact, I wouldn't be surprised if you were captured so he could take revenge on " - Cloud replied with concern - "That's why I ask you to be careful, don't do anything stupid, and don't belittle Amanogawa, he has been all this ti moving in the shadows with Ehit's help, that's why he has to be much stronger than you think."
[I understand... although this doesn't change my situation much, I don't plan on running away, it's not my style.]
Cloud was silent before letting out a sigh - "I understand, though I want you not to do anything weird because we're coming over there."
[Are you coming?]
"Are we?" - Kaori repeated in surprise - "No, you're not fully recovered yet!"
[Wait... Are you hurt?]
"No, just tired" - answered Cloud while shaking his head - "As for Ehit, he's worse off than ."
[If you're hurt, then I don't need your help, I can take care of this on my own]
Cloud clicked his tongue before indicating to Kaori to call the others because they were going to give Rika support. He wasn't going to risk it when he had this bad feeling.

Rika frowned when she heard the blonde, though she still nodded at his words because she too felt that sothing strange was going on over the past day. She had heard reports that they had found signs of movent in the nearby forest.
"Should we move forward, Miss Rika?" - A soldier asked.
"No, this is too strange, think about it, until now we had found no clues, but all of a sudden we not only discovered his tracks, but we also managed to find out where his base was possibly located" - Rika replied with a frown - "If we make a wrong move, it is quite possible that we will fall into his trap, and our lives could be in danger, after all, he was one of the strongest heroes of the group before he betrayed us."
The soldier ducked his head before nodding and retreating.
Rika was silent before she sensed a presence inside her tent - "Have you managed to discover anything during this short ti, Endou?"
"Nothing that points to him leading us into a trap, though I wouldn't rule out the idea" - Endou replied while frowning - "No matter how I look at it, it's strange that he would start showing his movents so openly"
"That's the sa thing I thought, the thing is that this is also our only chance to capture that bastard" - said Rika while letting out a sigh - "The thing is that it's likely that the mont we make the first move, Amanogawa might counterattack with Ehit's help."
"So it's confird that god is against us?" - Endou asked with concern, after all, he wasn't sure if they would be able to return now that the mad god was showing his hostility against them.
"Yes, though according to what Cloud just inford , Ehit is weakened" - Rika answered seriously - "So it's quite likely that he won't be able to show his full power, though there's a problem we've been ignoring..."
"Which one?" - Endou asked seriously.
"Nakamura" - answered Rika seriously while noticing how the boy with low presence, opened his eyes, surprised with these words because he too had forgotten about his traitorous classmate - "I see... you're right, we haven't heard anything about Nakamura."
"The thing is, if Amanogawa is nearby, then that crazy bitch shouldn't be that far away" - said Rika as she started to think - "And her ability is problematic because we would end up having an attrition battle, one that we'd possibly lose."
Endou was silent as he frowned - "Wait, there's sothing that doesn't fit..."
"And what would that be?" - Rika asked curiously.
"Nakamura shouldn't be able to get through our detection, which ans one of three possible scenarios, one, she's not in this place, two, Amanogawa has her protecting whatever she's trying to do, and three, she's possibly dead" - said Endou while shaking his head.
"Dead? I don't think so, that bitch is tenacious" - replied Rika while thinking - "Which ans it's one of the first two options, and seeing how desperate Amanogawa's moves are, I wouldn't be surprised if Nakamura isn't here".
"If she's not here, that ans she has to be following Amanogawa's orders, which would translate to her being able to return at any mont with her army of Undead..." - Rika muttered after realizing the danger she was in - "Endou, please call the leaders of this operation, we need to prepare"
"I understand" - nodded Endou before disappearing.
A few minutes later, a group of n and won entered Rika's tent, who was sitting there checking the map.
"Why did you call us, Rika-sama?" - Asked the leader of the Haulia clan's assassination squad.
"I'm also curious to know" - said a muscular, bald man - "We were about to start the hunt, and this ti, we, the adventurers, will not be defeated."
The armoured woman was silent as she waited for her female companion to say what she had to say.
"I've called you all here for sothing serious, we may be in grave danger..." - Rika said as she explained the situation.
The leaders frowned as they thought carefully, this was serious after all.
"I understand, though this doesn't change the plans we have, we just need to capture the traitor and this operation would be over" - said the leader of the adventurers.
"That's not so simple, and you should know that, especially with all the ti that young man has been dodging our hunters..." - said the female knight while shaking her head - "You should even admit that it's strange that after all this ti with no results, that bastard finally started to show his tail."
The leaders started to talk amongst themselves when they heard this because the words of the knight woman were true, they too were puzzled.
"I wouldn't be surprised if this was a trap to make us let our guard down" - said a man with a monocle. He was another leader of a group of adventurers, one that had a high success rate in their missions because they always planned before making their moves, which is why they had been one of the few groups that had entered the forest after discovering Kouki's possible appearance, more so with the huge bounty on his head.
"Back to the main point, as Cid-dono said, the chances of this being a trap is extrely high, that's why I want you to control your subordinates so that they don't let greed take over their thoughts" - Rika said seriously while looking at each of the leaders - "After all, we don't know what kind of satanic ritual the traitor hero is trying to practice, it's even possible that his moves are so showy because he needs more sacrifices and we are his targets..."
The leaders' expression darkened when they heard this because they hadn't thought about it.
"If this is true, then the level of danger is much higher than we first thought..." - Cid muttered as he started to think - "Perhaps we should reorganise our subordinates and start moving in larger groups, after all, there is strength in numbers."
