Chapter 287: I Forgot!
After realizing the plan of the enemy squad, Kraftvoll decided to kill all of them to make sure that no information is going to leak even more than the current one that was exposed.
After conjuring the Lava Barrage seishin spell, Kraftvoll commanded to his teammates, "We have to move, NOW!"
Although they were confused about Kraftvoll's sudden command, the elven prince and the others decided to follow their captain without any form of objection.
'It seems like both First Brother and I had thought the same thing in mind. They are really buying time because First Brother would not be in a rush if that is not the case,' the elven prince thought to himself as he observed his First Brother.
In the middle of their run, Kraftvoll suddenly activated his black seishin aura.
At the next moment, he began chanting saying, "As the symbol of the mysteries of the world, I instruct thee, envelop me by your gloominess, Shadow Cloak!"
After an immense amount of black seishin essences gathered around Kraftvoll, all of it turned into particles of darkness that covered him and all of his subordinates. The effect of the Shadow Cloak made Kraftvoll and all of his subordinates hidden in the naked eyes due to the darkness of the night.
After running for a few minutes, Godwin could not help but be curious about the sudden command of his captain. He could not hold it any longer so he decided to ask Kraftvoll, "Why are we rushing, captain? Is there any problem?"
Kraftvoll decided not to hide anything from his comrades so he just said what's on his mind. He said in response to his Third Brother, "The enemy squad is buying some time. There is a possibility that they might be waiting for reinforcement so I decided to kill them before leaving as soon as we can."
After thinking about the situation, Godwin wondered about a single thing that he did not hesitate to ask the captain of their squad.
"Why did we leave the entrance of the ravine just like that? Isn't that-?"
Before Godwin could even finish asking questions, Kraftvoll immediately reacted to it. He shouted in frustration, "Shit! I fucking forgot the entrance of the cave! I will turn back for a moment! First Lieutenant, you're temporarily in-charge! I will regroup with you as soon as I collapsed that cave!"
"Yes, sir!" shouted the elven prince in response to his First Brother. Although he wanted to go with him, he promised him that he would lead in his kind of situation.
"SKY SOAR!" shouted Kraftvoll after hearing his First Lieutenant's response to his command.
At that very moment, Kraftvoll's inner seishin essences came out of his body which later on transformed into a translucent body of air that helped Kraftvoll soar through the sky.
"CAPTAIN, WAI--!" Godwin was about to shout something to Kraftvoll when he was reprimanded by his Second Brother, Prince Aragorn.
"DON'T FOLLOW HIM! Just follow his command!" shouted the elven prince just before Godwin was able to finish his shout.
With the command of his current standing commanding officer, Godwin decided to not make any fuss about it. Especially when he realized that he was the only one who did so.
The others did not worry about their captain, Kraftvoll, because they knew that he was strong enough to come back. Meanwhile, Godwin was just worried about his First Brother because the world of seishin cultivation is cruel.
Without their captain, Prince Aragorn and the others decided to just continue on their way toward their base camp.
After traveling for a minute, Kraftvoll was able to reach the Quietus ravines where they were before. When he happened to gaze to the place where he launched his Lava Barrage seishin spell, he saw the melted corpse of the people he finished earlier.
He thought to himself, 'I must not feel any remorse killing those pieces of shits! I must remain my composure and do what I need to do!'
With that in his mind, Kraftvoll walked toward the entrance of the ravines. At the next moment, he activated his brow seishin aura.
Without a moment of hesitation, he chanted, "Ye who exemplifies the aspect of groundedness, allow my desire to be fulfilled, let the world be shaken by your might, Earth Tremor!"
After gathering an enormous amount of brown seishin essences, Kraftvoll was able to shake the ground beneath the entrance that he create earlier until the roof of the cave collapse leaving the entrance closed.
'That should do it! Well, it's time to leave!' Kraftvoll thought to himself.
With that in his mind, Kraftvoll used his Sky Soar seishin spell to follow his comrades that went ahead of him.
After a few minutes since Kraftvoll left, a group of seishin practitioners from the Dark Alliance had arrived at the entrance of the Quietus Ravines.
"It seemed like we came late. When we departed, only one of them was killed but the enemy is clever! What's the situation on the Quietus Ravines?" said the leader of the squad that just arrived.
"Sir, it seems like the entrance had collapsed! We have no way of identifying whether they got our secret documents!" said the soldiers who inspected the ravine.
'Why are the superiors decided to put some important documents at this remote base of ours!? Are they planning on something!? Well, I have no time thinking about those old farts!'
The leader of the squad decided to just brush off what he was thinking. Instead, he commanded his subordinates, "Bury our fallen comrades-in-arms! And you! Dig that cave! Report to us the situation about that place!"
"Yes, sir!" said the soldiers in response to their captain.
Meanwhile, Kraftvoll was able to reach his Prince Aragorn and the others after using his Sky Soar seishin spell.
To speed up their travel toward their camp, Kraftvoll decided to conjure his Sky Soar seishin spell to his comrades.
As soon as they arrived at their camp, Kraftvoll decided to immediately report to the regimental commander of his.
