Chapter 121 A Map
One minute later, Billy appeared again inside the castle.
The courtyard was already filled with corpses and blood flowed like a river. Every member of theBlood Hall who had fought to resist had been killed. These people from Place of Darkness, everysingle one of them, had innocent blood on their hands. Killing them ten times over wouldn't beenough. Casey and his team never intended to let them go.
"Boss!"
"Commander!"
Upon seeing Billy, all three shouted at once.
Billy nodded slightly and said, "Let's leave here."
The three responded with nods.
Two minutes later, they drove away in their car.novelbin
With that, Blood Hall ranking fifth among Place of Darkness officially became history.
"Boss, are you okay?" Casey asked as they drove away for a while.
Judge looked at Billy with a slightly worried expression, clearly sharing the same concern. He knewthat Billy's injuries were severe, and he was worried that Billy's old wounds might have resurfacedafter his battle with the Devil of Blood today.
"I'm fine." Billy replied.
"Commander, were you injured?" Rakshasa next to him looked surprised.
To be able to easily kill a top Warlord even when injured was terrifying! What if he were in perfectcondition?
"Just a little injury." Billy responded.
"Commander, I'm sorry. This is all my fault. You've been inconvenienced because of me." Rakshasatook a deep breath before continuing to speak.
"I... I didn't tell you everything. Please forgive me."
"You finally decided to speak up?" Judge spoke in a deep voice. "For your sake, both Ms HarleenKnight and Tasha were almost implicated. Are you treating us like your free bodyguards?"
He and Casey had already suspected something for a long time, but they hadn't asked becauseBilly hadn't mentioned it.
"I'm sorry... so sorry..." Rakshasa said guiltily.
"What are you hiding from us?" Casey spoke harshly.
"Somebody posted a bounty on Place of Darkness for one map with very tempting conditions,"Rakshasa took another deep breath before continuing to speak again
"What kind of map?" Judge asked.
"I don't know what use the map has, everyone only knows about its existence but very few peopleknow what it can do. It's just that the reward is too tempting which makes everyone flock towards it."Rakshasa said and shook her head.
"So what you're saying is that you know where the map is?" Judge asked after some thought.
"Two months ago, I was being chased by Blood Hall's people when I met an injured Battle God onmy escape route." Rakshasa nodded her head slightly.
"He was almost dying at the time cause he was completely beaten and had only one breath left inhim."
"He asked me to do him a favor, to find a way to notify his family to escape for their lives. Inexchange, he showed me the map."
"But he didn't give it to me because he was afraid I would get into trouble. He just told me toremember as much as I could before destroying it himself."
"I wanted to learn more about the map, but at that time he was already at his wits' end. Afterdestroying the map, he lost all hope." Rakshasa explained.
"How did the people from Blood Hall know that you knew about the map?" Casey asked.
"I'm not exactly sure." Rakshasa replied with a shake of his head.
"It wasn't until later when I found out that this person had been seriously injured because of themap. Before then, many people probably already knew about it being on him." Rakshasa continued.
"So it's possible those people from Blood Hall who were chasing after me suspected I had contactwith him and therefore thought I had the map on me."
After speaking, she turned apologetically towards Billy, "Commander Gardner... I'm sorry for nottelling you earlier, I never expected those people from Blood Hall..."
"Enough!" Billy interrupted her.
To him, whether or not Rakshasa told him didn't make any difference. He knew very well that sincekilling two Battle Generals of Blood Hall that day, conflict with them was inevitable.
Besides, from the information he had gathered, it seemed that over the past year, several sinistercountries had been infiltrating Glavale, either directly or indirectly, through the power of the Place ofDarkness.
So, even without the Rakshasa incident, he knew that sooner or later, he would cross paths with thePlace of Darkness.
"Commander Gardner, I still remember that map vividly. I can sketch it out for you." Rakshasapaused briefly before continuing to speak.
"It's fine," Billy shook his head. "I have no interest in Place of Darkness' affairs!"
Whether or not what Rakshasa saw was real didn't matter, as King of the West, Billy wouldn't beinterested in such matters anymore; there weren't many things left capable of piquing his curiositythese days anyway, no to mention the affairs of Place of Darkness.
After a brief pause, he looked at Rakshasa and asked.
"When I killed Devil of Blood just now, I met a man in black robes who Devil called a messenger. Doyou know who that is?"
"Messenger?!" Rakshasa's pupils slightly contracted, "Does he wear a skull mask on his head?"
Billy nodded. "Who was it?"
"That was a messenger from Sanctum of Darkness!" Rakshasa paused and continued, "He shouldhave come to stop you from killing Devil of Blood? What happened later?"
"I killed him!" Billy responded lightly. "What is Sanctum of Darkness?"
Upon hearing Billy's words, Rakshasa was shocked by Billy's decisiveness and speed of action.
"If we compare Place of Darkness to a country then Sanctum of Darkness would be like their lawenforcement agency," Rakshasa steadied her emotions and continued speaking.
"On paper they regulate order in this world but in reality they use law enforcement as an excuse tosatisfy their own desires."
"However, because there are too many strong individuals in Sanctum of Darkness, other powerscan only be silently resentful." Explained her.
"Is this for real? I can't believe there's an organization like Place of Darkness." Exclaimed Judgeincredulously.
"The messenger you encountered earlier, Commander Gardner, he is responsible for enforcing thelaw in Place of Darkness on behalf of Sanctum of Darkness." Said Rakshasa with concern evidentin her voice.
"To maintain their authority, anyone who disrespects the messengers of Sanctum of Darkness willface severe retaliation."
"If they find out that you killed one of their messengers, they won't let it go." Added Rakshasa.
"What's so scary about a weak organization like Sanctum of Darkness? They better watchthemselves or we'll tear down their whole operation!" interrupted Judge.
Ahem!
Rakshasa cleared her throat before continuing.
It was true what they say-birds of a feather flock together. The people around Commander Gardnerseemed just as ruthless as he was!
Life and death were just part and parcel to them. If someone dared to challenge them, they wouldfight back!
