Chapter 258
“Aaaahhhh!”
The sword impaled the guy’s heart. This attack could only be done by them because it took advantage of Ardagan’s indestructible body as well as Anna’s extraordinary strength.
“Impossi…” The guy glared at them until his consciousness faded away.
Noel took a deep breath and pulled out his sword. “As expected, a Spirit Wielder is a bit harder to fight against an Advanced Level Demon. A human is indeed weaker than a demon in physical abilities, but they’re far trickier and harder to kill.”
Noel glanced at Anna to check her condition. She had been running all this time, so she must be pretty exhausted. That was also the reason why Anna couldn’t overwhelm this guy in the first place.
“Are you alright, Anna?” Noel asked.
“Yeah.” Anna nodded while walking to him as if she was completely fine.
However, Noel could see her body shaking to the point her feet gave up.
“Ah!” Anna realized that the adrenaline in her nervous system had begun to leave her and now her exhaustion began to fill her mind. “Mphmh?!”
She thought she was falling to the ground, but her feet seemed to be still touching the ground. When she raised her head, she realized Noel had caught her. A smile couldn’t help but appear on her face. “Sorry. I was truly exhausted.”
“No injury whatsoever?”
“Yeah. I just need rest.”
“I see.” Noel paused for a moment before carrying her on his back. “Anyway, we’ve done our job here. I’ll take care of the rest.”
“Mhm, alright.” Anna nodded.
Noel carried her out of the mansion, wondering where he should go. After all, he still had to wait for the guy that Anna brought to come out.
“Noel!” Suddenly, a shout came from the second floor.
Noel turned around and found Lokhar and Kirika who managed to survive. Next to them was the glasses guy who seemed to be dragging a few people with his threads.
Seeing that the situation was already fine, the vice captain threw these people to the garden to regroup with Noel. Of course, he brought Kirika and Lokhar who he found hiding inside the mansion so that they didn’t get in Noel’s way.
“It seems that you’re done.” The vice captain glanced at the side, finding the ruckus caused by the fight.
“Yes. Thank you for allowing us to fight that guy.”
“It’s nothing. At the very least, we now know there will be an inspector coming. I can capture an inspector and you, who have found this out, will also receive a great merit.”
“I didn’t do anything. You should reward Kirika and Lokhar instead. They’ve suffered.” Noel shook his head, refusing to take the credit.
The vice captain paused for a moment before saying, “Of course, everyone will be rewarded. On behalf of the Demon Banner Army, I’d like to thank you, Noel Ardagan. You too, Anna Stargaze.”
“Thank you, Sir.” Noel nodded while Anna was too weak, so she only smiled at him.

“That’s right. When I was pretending to be unconscious, I heard that the receptionist said these two words to the guards. Exelam Monda. Do you know what that means?” Noel asked.
“!!!” The vice captain widened his eyes in shock. “What did you say?”
“Exelam Monda. She said those two words. I don’t know what that means though.”
However, Noel wasn’t the only one shocked by those words. Anna, Kirika, and Lokhar were stunned as well.
“Mhm… What’s wrong? Am I a bit too ignorant again?” Noel was confused.
“Yeah. You are too ignorant, Noel.” Anna sighed.
“We’re in a bad, no very bad situation.” The vice captain bit his lips.
“What does those two words mean?”
“This is a code used by the Supreme Devil Organization. There are six ranks in the Supreme Devil Organization: Devil Worshiper, Devil Officer, Devil Inspector, Devil Bishop, Devil Saint, and lastly the Supreme Devil. Each rank has their own code and the one you told me earlier is the code used by a Devil Bishop, not a Devil Inspector.”
“What’s that supposed to mean?” Noel asked again because he was still confused.
“In other words, the inspector that will be coming this time is not the Devil Inspector, it’s the Devil Bishop.” Anna explained. “You should know the Spirit Ranks. Spirit Apprentice, Spirit Practitioner and so on… Each rank doesn’t mean that you’re getting stronger like a straight line. Instead, a Spirit Practitioner is ten times stronger than a Spirit Apprentice, a Spirit Wielder is ten times stronger than a Spirit Wielder, and so on.
“An Inspector is a rank for people who have become a high level Spirit Wielder, close to Spirit Master. Some of them even have become a Spirit Master. However, a bishop is a rank for people who have become a high level Spirit Master or even a Spirit Grandmaster.”
“Ah!” Noel widened his eyes in shock. “Then…”
“Yeah. In other words, the one who will becoming right now is as strong as Vice Captain Joseph. And that’s not all, a Bishop will surely be escorted by multiple Inspectors.”
“…” Noel fell silent. “Maybe I should have said that one first.”
“No, you should learn about common knowledge first… These codes have been released as common knowledge by the Supreme Devil Organization. The reason is simple, it’s too instill fear to the masses. By just knowing a powerful terrorist will be coming will surely cause chaos inside a city… So, you truly have to learn more common knowledge… No, I’m going to teach you everything after this.” Anna sighed, having a headache.
“Kh.” Joseph gritted his teeth and said, “Anyway, you four are to leave this city immediately. I’m going to find some reinforcement. You have done your job, so it’s time for me to do mine.”
“We understand.” All of them nodded and began to walk. However, Noel stopped for a moment and lowered his head. “I’m sorry.”
“No. The fact that you told me this before everything happened is enough. At least, I won’t be going straight to my own death I’m going to call any captain near us. Hopefully there is one.” Joseph waved his hand, telling him to leave straight away because he had to hurry.
Noel nodded and walked away.
As soon as Noel left the area, there was a sudden Spiritual Energy fluctuation that shocked Joseph. He hurriedly turned around and shouted, “Who are you?” albeit not finding anyone behind him.
“I’ll be helping you to deal with the bishop.” A man’s voice rang in his ears.
“!!!” Joseph looked down and saw his shadow flickering. However, it soon stabilized as if the person had disappeared once again. His body was trembling as he muttered, “Impossible. A high level Spirit Grandmaster? No, he’s very close to Spirit Transcendence… Then, does that mean he’s stronger than my captain? But… why is that kind of person here? Is he following someone? Then, who?”
