Grim Reaper in the Apocalypse: Reaping Immortals

Atlan agreed with the Enchanted Queen's words. There was something wrong, he just couldn't point it out. There was something wrong with the Remedium, and the Canzer world itself. Otherwise, this wouldn't have happened in the first place.

"Don't leave just yet, Atlan. I think we need to see what's in store in the Remedium," advised the Queen.

He agreed with her sentiment. Although he could have easily left the Remedium using his Angel Wings, Atlan chose not to. If there was something wrong with the Remedium, then it was better if he could see it for himself.

"Hey, kid! You better listen to Kobra's words. He's going to lead us out of this."

"If you're not going to listen, then just make sure that you get out of our way."

"Don't wander around, or else we won't be able to save you."

The Intern-level Saviors lectured Atlan for his inattentiveness during Kobra's debriefing. He was teaching them all they needed to know when facing a Specialist-level Canzer of this magnitude, but the weakest person in the group, the Star Porter, wasn't even listening to his words at all. He was disregarding it as if there were better things to do.

Atlan ignored them and continued to observe the Remedium.

Right now, they were confined with four walls surrounding them.

Atlan was curious. If he went out of this room, would he still see the same inverted color Genesis City Remedium that everyone was so familiar with, or would he see something completely different?

He decided not to get out for now. If he wanted to see the anomaly for what it was normally, then he should not show himself just yet. He should let it all pass without interfering.

Meanwhile, Kobra and the rest of the Saviors were finally done with their briefing. They decided that they were going to act as one big team, with Kobra on the lead, and the rest of them following closely behind.

Carmine, the civilians, and Atlan were all positioned at the very back, where they would be at the safest.

This was chosen after a long time of debating with each other. Some wanted to explore outwards and kill the Canzer as fast as possible so that they could return home quickly. However, some also argued for the choice of staying in this place the entire time.

Both choices had merits and weaknesses. If they wanted to explore outwards and seek the Canzer for themselves, then it would leave the civilians vulnerable to any sneak attacks.

After all, they were wholly unprepared for this kind of situation. They were untrained, unruly, and unpredictable.

They were worse than Student Saviors. At least with Student Saviors, they would know not to do anything stupid. They would know the basics of fighting a Canzer.

But Civilians knew nothing. And most of all, they were a panicky little bunch. If a Canzer appeared, Kobra and the others couldn't be sure that they would stay in the same place. Some of them would probably try to run away out of fear, but this would only lead them into further trouble.

The civilians would not be able to stay in their positions for long. The terrifying Canzer in front of them would make all their thoughts go into disarray, leading them to act chaotic.

This would only make Kobra and the Saviors work a lot harder. So, it would be much safer for everybody to just stay in one place.

However, that choice had its flaws as well.

If they stayed here and didn't dare to venture outwards, then they would only waste their time. If they don't kill the Canzer that brought this Remedium to them, then they won't be able to return home to the real world.

Not only that, everyone knew that a Remedium came with a Symptom. They didn't know it right now, but there could be a terrible disaster happening in the real world right now.

It was the worst-case scenario as well since they were located at the heart of the HeadQuarters. This meant that if they continued to stay their hand and delay the killing of the Canzer, then they could be putting their HeadQuarters in further harm.

"Hmph…these humans don't know what they're talking about. They're afraid, and that is influencing their choices," the Enchanted Queen said.

"But…but…it's good that they're talking about it, right? They are working together to try and make everyone as safe as possible," said Tulip.

Atlan agreed with both of them. However, he knew that this equilibrium won't be for long.

He knew that both choices weren't ideal. This made the whole group hesitant to go with either choice.

But Atlan wasn't that confused. He knew that there was only one answer that they could do right now that would solve both problems.

"There's only one thing we can do," Atlan said, gathering the attention of the entire group.

Some Saviors were immediately annoyed that a porter in the Student realm dared to speak up when the adults were speaking. However, they didn't say anything to Atlan and just gave him a nasty gaze.

The only ones who took him seriously were Kobra, Carmine, and the Elder Heads.

"What is it, Atlan?" Carmine asked.

"We should lure the Canzer here and fight it on our territory."

His words made them all think for a second. Atlan's suggestion did seem to solve both problems. They wouldn't have to worry about venturing further out of the Remedium, while having the chance to kill the Canzer at the same time.

It was brilliant, and the other Intern Saviors couldn't believe that they hadn't thought of it themselves.

"You think it's that easy, kid? How are we going to lure a Canzer here?"

"That's right. It's impossible…"

"And why are we even believing in this child's words? Isn't he completely lying about everything?"

The civilians immediately tried to disparage Atlan. They didn't want to follow his suggestion, not because it was bad, but because he was the one who made it. They didn't trust him, plain and simple.
