The "Yellow Gown Contract" involved a soul agreement that even an upper-rank entity would find almost impossible to overturn.
After handling the first prisoner’s matter,
Han Dong’s main consciousness also returned to reality,
and naturally noticed Abe and Mia standing in the passageway.
Abe’s eyes were wide open, unable to believe the scene unfolding before him.
He was incredulous at how a middle-rank entity from the demon lair was defeated without leaving even a trace.
In Abe’s understanding, once one reaches the level of [The King], they could stand undefeated in their King Domain, making it extremely difficult to kill someone of the same rank.
Mia’s gaze carried not only surprise but also a sense of doubt, even certitude about her inner suspicions.
Han Dong quickly adjusted his persona, tilting his head and speaking in the capacity of an external lecturer from Mi University:
"Captain Abe, things here have been resolved smoothly.
We owe it all to the attribute-level suppression by Lady Sally, which allowed us to successfully kill the Skull Girl behind the scenes,"
Han Dong attempted to disguise his explanation as much as possible,
striving not to reveal his identity, as he still needed to head to the Holy City to provide resources and gather intelligence later on.
Mia questioned with a flashing gaze, "Who exactly are you?"
Han Dong took a deep breath, made a decision, and stood up to walk towards the two at the door.
During his gradual approach,
Han Dong’s eyes slowly reverted to their original state, also showing the smile from when they teamed together.
"Abe, Mia, long time no see.
I originally planned to find you, but the ’Final Game’ is too important for me personally. The Holy City is merely the beginning; once the invasion war in the Holy City ends, I’ll continue to many other places.
Moreover, due to the restrictive rules of the game, I cannot reveal my identity and must operate in disguise.
Upon reaching this point,
Mia’s eyes were already wet, her gut feeling from the beginning was not wrong.
Abe was completely stunned, unable to react.
Han Dong opened his arms and embraced them both.
His palms smoothly pressed against the back of their heads.
Tentacles penetrated, erasing the relevant memories cleanly... and also sending them out of the demon lair.
With Connector Camistine already defeated, most areas of the Holy City were safe. As long as they avoided the area where the teacher and Razorman were, they wouldn’t be in too much danger.
Just then, Sally’s voice came from behind:
"Brother, this human woman seems to have a special feeling and obsession towards you... Although there is such a big gap in level, she can still see through your disguise."
Being addressed as ’brother’ by Sally left Han Dong momentarily stunned.
Thinking carefully, such an address was indeed very clever.
Due to the experiences in the Black Forest, Han Dong and Sally had an additional "twin" relationship, and calling him brother was entirely appropriate.
The term ’brother’ also allowed them to skirt the edge, avoiding any game violations.
"Mm... Mia’s sixth sense has always been spot-on."
"Oh." Sally still sat by the slime pool, swinging her legs up and down, "By the way, I also need to erase the memory of you in the Holy City, right? After all, I’ve chosen to join the human forces.
If not, once I leave the demon lair, it could cause you to violate the rules."
"Mm... best to do so.
Besides, with Connector Camistine already defeated, ’The Balance’ has completely tilted.
The rest of the matters don’t need you to worry, Sally. Just go back and take care of your friends. As for the upcoming war, I’ll assist the captain to complete it in a short time.
Once the Holy City war ends, and the rules are no longer in place, we shall meet again."

Holy City - Underground area
The Death World created by Alex was almost completely torn apart by Razorman,
due to a hand chop from Razorman cutting through the strata, it accidentally touched an Ice Crystal Chamber hidden in the deepest part of the Holy City.
Waves of terrifying evil qi surged up through the cracks,
even Alex showed an extremely cautious expression, more tense than when facing Razorman alone.
He remembered clearly the situation a month ago when Marlon returned from Hell.
Including Mr. Black White, many prophets in the Holy City glimpsed the arrival of the apocalypse at that moment... The entire Holy City showed signs of becoming hellish believers.
The dangerous aura emitted from the Bell Tower alarmed the highest combat power of the entire Holy City.
With Alex providing suppressive force, the Great Demon Leader constrained and restricted him with the Land Deed... but they still slightly lost in momentum, power, and domain.
Marlon, still retaining a sliver of sanity, suddenly stopped during the clash and made a request.
He asked the Holy City to take out its strongest means at all costs to temporarily seal him.
Seizing this opportunity,
many leaders successively brought out their means, working together to subdue him.
Following Mr. Black White’s advice, they ultimately used Thousand-year-old Frost to encase him in the deepest layer underground and fused the King Level Land Deed - Nointena inside the inner chamber to ensure complete restraint.
such a seal was accidentally broken by Razorman.
Numerous cracks converged at the center of the chamber,
completely shattering.
Thump! First came a burst of heartbeats akin to an engine roaring from the depths, heard by all living entities in the Holy City, even causing a noticeable sensation of vibration from each heartbeat.
Such heartbeats slightly disrupted Mr. Teacher, who was in the middle of a chess game.
"Hmm, you humans still conceal a master?"
As an Executioner of the Penny Family,
Razorman prided himself on executing powerful figures.
Feeling such an intense "heartbeat," mere eye contact singed his pupils,
The continuous surge of strength from below made Razorman extremely thrilled, constantly grinding the blades between his teeth... even temporarily abandoning the Death God - Alex at his hands,
focusing all his attention on this unknown demon.
Ha~ he exhaled a bloody evil qi.
The razor at the tip of his shoe sliced through space,
Buzz! Swift Step flashed.
Razorman stepped into a chamber filled with ice crystal fragments.
His hand blade was already raised, aimed at the demon’s neck...
At the moment of intended execution.
This seemingly violent human-formed demon performed a rather standard sword-drawing move.
A samurai sword engraved with "Flowing Light" emerged from his demonic body, secured at his waist.
Thump! Another resounding heartbeat echoed throughout the city.
Simultaneously, during the heartbeat, he completed the sword draw.
The underground space was slashed with fractures extending thousands of meters, inhaling countless rock debris.
Also capturing a large number of shattered blade fragments.
Due to Razorman’s unique body, he wasn’t "bisected"... but received a massive shock, shooting upwards like a bullet.
His body broke through layers of rock and soil,
A massive explosion occurred on Rat Street in the Samel civilian area,
Razorman burst out of the ground, continuing to ascend a kilometer into the sky before barely stopping.
An extremely exaggerated gash was slashed across his chest, all the blades covering his body severed, only withheld by his unique spine.
The tongue filled with blades protruded from his mouth.
Razorman displayed an extremely excited state, stammeringly speaking for the first time:
"There’s... another... master!"
