Lock stifled a gasp when she saw the woman in a chokehold by his hyung, Choi Han.

"Noona...that maid..."

"Rachel-ssi."

They could all hear Cale chuckle darkly as he held tightly unto Hong.

"So Rachel was your name here, Park So Jin."

Cale's reddish-brown eyes bored into the woman in a maid outfit pretending to be one who kept chuckling at Hong's dead body. Despite her face being planted firm on the ground, it never hindered her as Choi Han twisted her arm harder.

"Hmm? You know who am I."

The wings stretched wider and trembled, the second pair that was growing flapped more harder and faster. Cale gritted his teeth as his gaze became sharper.

"Hold him." The redhead muttered to On and Raon as he gave the cold and lifeless body to them.

Cale stood up and slowly walked towards the two, leaving a trail of blood dripping continuously from his wings. He sent a look to Choi Han to make the person he was pinning stand up and faced him.

The redhead grabbed the latter's jaw and forcibly held it in his hands. He tilted the face nonchalantly and noticed a tattoo behind her right ear.

"What's this? You're just an intermediate hunter yet you dare cross me?"

The said hunter have a bemused expression on her face as she playfully giggled, not suited for her psychotic look.

"Hoh. You know the ranks. As expected from the son of Jour Thames."

Cale kicked the woman's abdomen as he gave a glare.

"You're from the Blue Family aren't you."

"Tsk. Tsk. You know too much. Might as well kill you."

Choi Han was sent flying backwards to several tree trunks before Cale felt searing pain in his heart area. He looked downwards to see a dagger pierced in his chest as he coughed out blood.

He could hear alarmed voices calling out to him but he ignored it.

"Too bad, another member of the Crimson Family will now be dying." There was a sly smirk from the woman's face before taking the dagger back.

Cale felt On and Raon looking at him with wide eyes after slumping on the ground.

Park So Jin grinned at the audience as she wiped away her dagger similar to Ron's mannerism.

Cale only smiled at the children's way before standing up once again, he stretched his neck as he threateningly held the hunter's nape who was walking away from the scene.

Alberu almost screamed when he saw his own dongsaeng rising like a damn zombie.

"Too bad for you too. Because I'm a God. And Gods cannot be killed." Cale announced before hauling the hunter's body to the ground then threw her to the trees.

Choi Han just sighed, forgetting that his liege is a God for a moment.

"Do I have to help...Cale-nim?"

The once reddish-brown eyes turned pale blue once again as he looked at Choi Han. He shook his head.

"No. Grab the kids away and guard Hong especially." The redhead said before grabbing the hunter's collar and slammed her on the ground again, creating a small crater.

"Please don't use your ancient powers then." Choi Han said before grabbing the three children and went outside the transparent silver dome of a barrier.
