62 – TDG 62

The ​Black ​Moon ​Espers, ​who had been ​resisting ​and ​holding ​hostages ​until the very end, ​suddenly ​dropped dead all ​at once. Seeing ​them ​collapse, ​eyes ​rolling ​back ​into their heads, ​the ​bewildered ​hostages screamed and ​fled from their places ​of confinement.

“A ​purge,” Song ​Hyun-ho muttered, ​examining a ​corpse ​whose ​blood was leaking ​from every ​single orifice. While the ​exact method would require ​investigation, the reason for ​their deaths ​was ​singular: removing useless pawns from the ​board. It was a ​textbook ​case ​of ​cutting ​off the tail.
