"Boras... could it be them?"
Just then, Anenep's figure slowly materialized in a corner of the conference room.
"It's possible, but unlikely."
Boras shook his head, his tone icy. "You should know that if it were them, they would never risk appearing at an event like a Wizard gathering."
"But besides those Devourers, there shouldn't be any other Wizards who could improve so much in such a short time!"
Anenep's tone was just as cold, a chilling killing intent gleaming in his red eyes. "Boras, you should have slaughtered them all back then!"
"It would have been useless..."
"So what do you plan to do now? Should we try to contact Chief Vaklaf?"
"Not for now. His situation is even more difficult, and besides..." Boras shook his head again. "Based on my calculations, he should already be deep within the Undead World. It's not like we can contact him just because we want to..."
At this, the two skeletons looked at each other and opened their tooth-filled mouths in a silent sigh.
