The Holy Fire Guard served as the Lord of Vengeful's Honor Guard. Though there were only four of them, including Matthias, their combined combat prowess was enough for even Nelom, a Domain Level Powerhouse, to sense a potential threat.
The Lord of the Esquilino World—and former Battle Group Leader of the Ash Battle Group, once under the Holy Temple of Justice—narrowed his eyes, cautiously sizing up the four men.
By his estimation.
Each of these four men was strong enough to have served as his Adjutant or a member of his Honor Guard in the now-disbanded Ash Battle Group.
'Especially this stranger, Matthias...'
Nelom couldn't put his finger on what was strange about the man, but the instincts he'd honed over years of battle warned him that, should a conflict arise, this man would be a formidable threat.
'And the last one off the ship... an Alchemist?'
'He couldn't recall such a position ever existing in the Empire's Battle Group organization.'
