There was a long way to go and their foes were numerous. Even if they only had a small elite party, it was impossible to completely avoid so many eyes.

The millions of creatures and angels were all enemies. Setting aside the creatures, the way that the angels fought was disgusting for humans. In a combat situation, the angels were no different from the creatures.

The way the angels fought. It was an 'insensitivity' that didn't care about anything but themselves.

If a passing human blocked the road then the angels would burn them. At least angels didn't go hunting humans.

But right now, this was a war zone.

A chaotic place filled with blood where reason was paralyzed.

Anybody found was hunted without delay.

Yoo Eun-hye's party were the top level Awakened and even they had trouble holding on.

Among them, the high priests Kim Yura and Kim Min-ji played great roles.

"Suture."

"Regeneration."

The combination of the two was beyond astonishing. They watched in amazement as amputated limbs were miraculously restored at once. Among the priests' jobs, it was a 'miracle' not possible for them.

Yet it had become a reality. Suture could immediately stitch up wounds while Regeneration completely healed a wound.

There were no side effects.

Commonly referred to as equivalent exchange...each Awakened experienced it to a certain extent when using skills. The higher ranked the skill, the more severe the fatigue due to loss of magic power.

But...they didn't get tired.

'Are they really people?'

Yoo Eun-hye inwardly shook her head.

Right now they were halfway there.

They had encountered angels and creatures dozens of times, causing casualties to appear. However, their common point was that they 'died instantly.' Kim Yura and Kim Min-ji couldn't save the dead.

If they could bring back the dead then it would make the weight of living seem too low. She had seen many deaths. If they were revived...she felt like her mind would be troubled.

Either way, the party was able to reach this point due to the severe injuries being treated immediately. Half the party members had been sacrificed to reach halfway to their target. If a simple calculation was done, they would all die by the time they arrived at the target.

'They have to arrive, even if it means dying. To do this, I must protect them.'

Yoo Eun-hye's eyes were shining.

She had seen many Awakened with healing skills, but it was the first time she had seen it to this degree. Their talent was necessary to reach the goal.

She only needed one person to fulfill the purpose. There was no guarantee that person would be Yoo Eun-hye. Rather than that...

Yoo Eun-hye looked at Edward Windsor.

"Noona, are you nervous?"

Edward Windsor grinned.

He was different compared to when she first saw him as a child.

Sometimes he looked at her like a mother, sometimes like a lover, but Yoo Eun-hye couldn't repay those expectations. He wasn't to blame.

Edward Windsor was too young. That's all.
