The Top Ten Members Are Caught
Countless of shadows remained hidden inside a dark forest.
Those shadows belonged to the Top Ten members, who had grown extremely weary.
Ever since learning that the Ecclesiastic Order was being heavily guarded, they knew the
road there would be a tough one and could only conceal themselves in the forest.
Now, they planned to wait for the slightest opening before infiltrating the Ecclesiastic
Order.
Their bodies and minds had long grown weary after days of being persecuted, and all the
firm beliefs and willpower they had spent years cultivating were practically gone.
“We can’t keep going on like this. We’ll be caught once daylight comes,” Ryvonne
murmured.
Davin sighed. “There are too many members of the Glorian Order out there. We’d only die
if we try to fight our way through.”
The other members shook their heads, no longer having the confidence they once had.
“If we’re going to die, either way, we may as well die trying. There’s a chance that a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcouple of us would make it and tell the Ecclesiastic Order what’s going on.”
“Maybe Master Thundera would avenge us too.”
“You have a point. Let’s split up into five teams. We might just stand a chance.”
“Well, that’s a pretty bold statement!”
Just as the Top Ten members were about to head out, a woman’s jeering voice came from
afar.
It sounded so piercing that it could rupture one’s eardrums.
The Top Ten’s hearts sank.
Gloria!
The voice belonged to none other than Gloria.
The group’s pupils dilated as they instinctively tried to escape.
“Don’t waste your energy. I’ve already got my eyes on you. You can’t run away.”
Before those words even fell, a shadow made its way over at the speed of light, and the
woman arrived right in front of the Top Ten.
Her presence was so intimidating that it seemed to enshroud the entire area.
With nowhere else to hide, the Top Ten could only show themselves.
“Let’s fight her! I don’t care if I die. I’m done with all this torture!” Thelomios roared.
As a Top Ten paladin, there was no denying he had his pride, but Gloria had walked all over
it.
A strong resolve swirled within the other members as they thought back to their
extraordinary lives.
He’s right. We won’t allow ourselves to be humiliated, even if it costs us our lives!
“Take her down!” they decided in unison.
Gloria merely scoffed. “I get that you want to die, but it’s not going to be easy. You see, I
want all of you to suffer a fate worse than death.”
Swoosh!
The shadow moved again.
Suddenly, Luna and Zordian felt a force against their chests before they could react.
They flew more than ten feet backward before crashing to the ground, blood trickling
down their mouths.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe other members charged ahead. Despite being well aware they were no match against
Gloria, they would still rather die trying.
“Don’t worry. I won’t kill you yet.”
The smile between Gloria’s lips widened as she countered them with just one hand
throughout the entire fight.
The Top Ten could do nothing but put up with her torment.
Although they had recovered some energy with the help of Eusof’s magical medicine, the
fact that they had lost their spiritual bone remained unchanged.
They wouldn’t stand a chance against Xylas, let alone Gloria.
While glancing at all the Top Ten members lying on the ground in a disheveled heap, Gloria
walked over to Lonedra and placed a foot over his chest.
“Tell me, where are Sonja and Eusof?”
A mere amount of force was enough to make Lonedra feel as though he was being
crushed by a thousand-pound boulder.
“I… I don’t know!” the man responded weakly.
With a huff, Gloria kicked him aside, sending him flying ten feet away like a soccer ball.
She then moved over to Ryvonne and stepped on her face. “What about you?”
