Arcane Drifters – Special Chapter 66.5
"Target: Heavenly Paradise"
In the deepest corners of the world…
Beneath shadows older than time…
A council gathered.
Twelve cloaked assassins, faces hidden, sat around a bloodstone table. Their name: Nightcide — the most feared assassination clan across all realms.
Their goal: erase the future.
> "Heavenly Paradise…" the leader growled. "The group that destroyed armies. Ended our clients. Forced the Demon Treaty. They've become… dangerous."
He lifted a scroll made of beastskin.
On it were six names… and six outrageous bounties:
Shen Karguro – 2,000,000,000,000,000,000 DRILLS
Kenya Naro – 2,000,000,000,000,000,000 DRILLS
Ruke Dravien – 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 DRILLS
Eliz Betham – 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 DRILLS
Nolan Zether – 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 DRILLS
Lilia Zei – 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 DRILLS
> "Kill them all. No mercy. No survivors. The age of balance must return."
Across the world, assassins received the signal.
Hidden guilds. Shadow mages. Former enemies. Even betrayers waiting in silence.
The hunt for Heavenly Paradise had begun.

Somewhere near Drifter Fortress...
The war was over. Demons and humans had signed the peace pact.
The battlefield was empty, skies finally blue. Shen stood beside Kenya, laughing lightly.
> "Feels like the world's sleeping again," Shen said, his Supreme Lord Eye deactivated for once.
Kenya nodded. "We finally get a break."
Behind them, Eliz tossed a spell spark into the air, making it burst like fireworks.
Lilia giggled. "I've always wanted a real celebration."
Ruke folded his arms, smirking. "Let's not relax too much. Peace is always temporary."
Nolan showed up seconds later with fried chicken and no explanation. "Anyone want golden-grilled thunder meat?!"
They were happy.
They were relaxed.
They were together.
But they had no idea…
That from a cliff above, twenty cloaked figures watched them in silence.
One of them whispered:
> "Strike at dawn. Start with Kenya."
