"Hey… Are you here to help us or not? We're already injured after fighting off the Cultists… If you're here to capture them, then you're too late. They already died…" Thyrus weakly said as he recovered a bit of his energy.

Since their organizations are basically allies, he didn't feel threatened by their presence and treated them as rescuers.

He then noticed that the Paragon who was previously wielding a huge axe is missing and the group of Martial Artists was only led by the female Paragon who can use a Lightning Field and monk Paragon.

There are over 50 of them right now and none of them seem to be some sort of doctors that could help them. Nevertheless, they should be able to help with first aid and perhaps they can borrow the potions they were keeping in their pockets.

Brycen took a deep breath as he looked at the three Grand Knights he was able to save in time.

Millie and Ceri seem to have recovered some of their Mana while Lar is suppressing the bleeding on his arm…

They were really not in a good condition so if these Martial Artists have malicious thoughts, there was no way they could fight back.

Even the Celestial Beings were not in a good shape.

Brycen look over at their side and noticed that there are only five Celestial Beings that were left and only Luna seem to be capable of fighting…

"Haha! Of course, we are here to help you. Unfortunately, we didn't bring enough potions for everyone but if you allow us to take the Celestials, we will be the ones taking care of them back in the Alliance's territory."

Ariana replied as she held back the Martial Artists who were about to run and save the Werewolf Slayer Squad.

As soon as they heard her condition, not only Slayer Squad were surprised but even the Martial Artists they'd brought from the alliance.

Archie, the leader of the Border Security Team, couldn't help but look at Paragon Ariana and Paragon Colm who seem to be angry at the weakened magicians in front of them.

His team was originally just patrolling the border of their territory when they received the Paragons' signal for help.

He recalled that the three of them weren't in their best condition…

'Are they the ones who defeated the Paragons?' Archie mused.

"Paragons… Isn't this a bit too harsh? With our potions, we can still treat all of them. Taking a contracted Celestial wouldn't be good. We're also in the territory of the Black Tower. If the Tower Lord learned about this—"

"Shut up! Do you think I don't know all of these?!" Colm shouted breaking his image as a calm and collected monk.

Right now, in their eyes, Colm seem to be seething in anger as if he wanted to devour them.

"Those potions aren't for them… They're originally ours and we can't give all of them to these people for free. Since we're lacking potions at the moment and they can't take them off themselves, we'll take care of the Celestials to ensure that they will receive proper treatment. We're doing this for their sake." Ariana calmly explained.

Of course, everyone already realized their true colors so Archie can only nod in agreement. No matter what, these two are Paragons and only the Alliance Head is capable of handling them.

He can only look at the magicians with pity as he stepped back.

Ariana smiled seeing that Archie understood his position.

Luna looked at the Paragons and the Martial Artists and knows that fighting them would be suicide at this point.

Nevertheless, she didn't falter and looked at Ariana… She has a pretty face but also a wicked mind… Luna couldn't help but sneer as she spoke.

"Are you really sure that you want to step on us while we're weak?" She asked.

Brycen and the others were too weak to even argue at this point. Leon, on the other hand, was a bit scared about speaking out of the line, so he just remained silent.

Only Luna can speak for them at this point.

"Haha! I'm not trying to sound arrogant, Miss Celestial… However, I don't think that with your condition, you have the right to negotiate... You were already lucky that we didn't forcefully take you and the four other Celestials… We can also eliminate all the witnesses but we didn't. We are even here willing to give potions to these people from the Black Tower."

Ariana calmly as Thyrus could only grit his teeth in anger…

Ariana was right… They can really be defeated right now but he couldn't help but feel betrayed!

"Aren't you the Paragon of the Martial Arts Alliance? Should you really be doing this to us? You're allied with the Black Tower Organization! Tower Lord Ignacy is alive and healthy… Once he learned about this, do you think you can get out of this unscathed?!" Thyrus shouted in anger… He even started coughing up blood because of this.

The amount of stress and injuries that had accumulated in his body started to gnaw at his health.

On the other hand, Colm didn't waver after hearing his threat. He couldn't help but chuckle especially after hearing the Tower Lord's condition.

"Do you think we care? Hahaha! The Black Tower will soon be gone and be replaced by the Black Magic Organization... Oh, you seem surprised… Your information-gathering skills have probably declined so it's not surprising that you don't know…" Colm sneered.

"W-what are you talking about? The Black Tower will not disappear! What are your evil schemes this time?!" Thyrus was flabbergasted by his reply.

"Hmph! The leaders of the Black Magic Organization have already visited the neighboring territories. Everyone has already accepted that they will be the new ruler of this northern region. At this point, I can even help them remove some of their problems but here we are, still convincing you to live in exchange for giving up your Celestials… Do you really think we're the villains here?!"

"This is madness! The Black Magic Organization is serving an evil god! Do you want another Demonic Cult to appear?!"

"Hey! I'm not the Alliance Head… If you want to complain about the allies of our organization, talk to the Alliance Head." Colm replied matter-of-factly infuriating Thyrus even more.
