Chapter 59
The scavengers were strong. Maybe even cultivators.
But they were never prepared to face people like Selene and Callack.
People who had walked through endless danger. Who had crossed dense beast infested lands again and again. Who had survived more than one battle that should have killed them without mercy.
Against this bunch of savages, they were death itself.
The news of scavengers being killed spread fast as Callack and Selene finished clearing their section of the settlement.
Selene placed Rayden in a relatively safe spot, far from the burning houses and the blood soaked battlefield.
"Stay here. We'll be back," she said, kissing his forehead.
The child did not look afraid.
As usual.
His eyes were calm, steady, like everything was already under control.
"Ta ta," Rayden managed to say.
Selene smiled.
"Yes. Stay safe."
She rushed off, Callack right behind her.
The moment they left, Rayden's adorable face twisted.
A deadly grin surfaced.
Safe?
