The meaning behind their words was very simple—they were willing to be the bad guys and shoulder all the blame

if it meant protecting the country.

This way, it was easy to win the favor and admiration of others.

“The Four Basilisks aren’t only extraordinary fighters, they’re also very respectable individuals.”

“Erudia is fortunate to have you!”

Winsor and everyone else gazed at the four of them with respect.

They were role models to look up to.

Little did they know that the Four Basilisks had killed the prisoners in order to keep the truth hidden and that it had

nothing to do with the country’s safety.

Western Monk looked down, ashamed to be given such undeserved praise.

“The Dragonites have received the news! They will welcome the four of you back with the highest honor.”

“I also heard that they’re planning to inaugurate all four of you as Crown Kings!”

Minka just received that news from the Dragonites.

“What? Crown Kings?”

Eastern Beast’s eyes lit up with delight, and so did his other two comrades.

It was truly a blessing in disguise!

Without needing to do anything, they were worshipped by thousands of people and became heroes of Erudia. And

now, they might even be coronated.

It was truly a dream come true.

“Mystery fighter, don’t worry. We’ll pray for your soul to rest in peace.”

They sent a silent prayer up for him.

Meanwhile, the thirty-eight people who had left with Levi witnessed this from the shadows.

They were about to step out to rejoin the group, but after watching how the Four Basilisks slaughtered all the

prisoners, they decided to stay hidden.

They also understood that the Basilisks wanted to kill everyone who knew about the truth, including them.

If they were to reveal themselves, the Basilisks would undoubtedly kill them too.

Not to mention, they were the ones who knew the whole truth, including the identity of the person who slayed the

Northern Demon.

To the Four Basilisks, they posed a bigger threat than anyone else.

“Run!”

“If we don’t, we’re going to die just like those prisoners.”

All of them came to a consensus and started fleeing.

However, their movement attracted the attention of the Four Basilisks.

“Aren’t they part of the Suicide Squad who fled with that punk? They were here too?”

“Sh*t. That means they know the truth!”

“We have to kill them!”

They started to panic and quickly went in pursuit.

“What’s wrong?”

Winsor and a few of them stopped them just then, but Eastern Beast and the others knew they couldn’t use the

same excuse anymore.

They had a legitimate reason to kill the Northern Demon’s underlings, but things were different with the Suicide

Squad.

If they weren’t careful, any one of those men might expose their lie.

“Nothing.”

“I have an idea!” Southern Warrior abruptly stated in a hushed voice.

“As long as we tell them they’re deserters, who’d believe what they say?”

“You’re right! No one would believe a bunch of deserters!”

“After all, we’re the ones who slayed the Northern Demon. There’s no evidence to back them if they claim

otherwise!”

With that, they exchanged complacent smiles.

Soon, they reported about the thirty-nine deserters.

Winsor and Minka checked all the bodies and confirmed that all the men from the Suicide Squad were present,

except for thirty-nine of them.

This could only mean that the thirty-nine of them were deserters.

Thereafter, Winsor made an official announcement about them abandoning their posts.

No one would believe a word those people said anymore.

“When you capture them, make sure to kill them on the spot!”

Eastern Beast and his comrades weren’t going to sit still while the thirty-nine of them remained on the loose.

Killing them was the only way to make sure their secret remained a secret. After all, dead men told no tales.
