The Octagram hall remained heavy with tension after Guy Crimson's confident laughter faded.
Guy leaned back in his grand chair, crimson eyes gleaming with dark interest as he continued speaking.
"Those heroes are strong enough to kill even the Demon Lords among us who are not yet fully awakened. Especially that SSS-rank leader. He could solo and kill a sleeping Demon Lord without much difficulty. If he keeps growing at this pace, he will become a real threat to all of us."
The hall fell into a long, heavy silence.
No one spoke for a while. Even Milim Nava stopped swinging her legs. The weight of Guy's words settled over the eight supreme beings like a dark cloud.
Then Milim suddenly perked up, tilting her head with a curious grin.
"Hey, hey~ Do you think Luo Feng can escape and survive from them?"
The Demon Lords began giving their opinions one by one.
Dagruel rumbled, "Unlikely. The power gap is too wide."
Luminus Valentine spoke coolly, "He may survive for a short time by running, but eventually he will be caught."
Leon Cromwell added calmly, "If he is smart, he might hide for a while. But against four heroes, especially an SSS-rank one, his chances are slim."
Rimuru Tempest remained quiet for a moment, then said thoughtfully, "It depends on how clever he is and what hidden cards he still has. But… it does not look good for him."
Milim clapped her hands together with a bright, almost playful smile.
"I bet he will die as soon as they meet! He is still only B-rank, while the four heroes are SS and SSS! There's no way he can win or even escape!"
The conversation continued flowing around the table. They discussed Luo Feng's known skills — Stealth Specialist and Appraisal — and how they might help him survive for a time. They speculated on the heroes' abilities, the Goddess's possible involvement, and whether Luo Feng's mysterious growth could surprise them.
Some believed he would put up a decent fight before dying. Others thought he might manage to kill one or two more heroes before being overwhelmed. A few even wondered if the ancient Evil God who had once interfered with the summoning might step in again.
The Octagram kept chatting late into the night, analyzing every possibility about the lone human named Luo Feng and the four vengeful heroes closing in on him.
All the while, in the distant Holy Kingdom of Elysium, Luo Feng slept peacefully beside his pregnant wife Lina and their newborn son, still completely unaware that the most powerful beings on the other side of the world were intently watching his fate unfold.
