Chapter 1078: The President’s daughter (4)
From there, he had a clear view of the landing strip and could see everything that was happening where the president\'s daughter\'s plane was supposed to arrive.
Erik saw that there were indeed a lot of security guards present, but none of them had the Chimaeric Demons\' pins. The Chimaeric demons didn\'t take their place yet, but there was a reason for that.
The guards were bound to be in communication with Hin\'s government, or whoever took charge of the president\'s daughter\'s security.
Erik didn\'t want to risk the Chimaeric Demons being found out by whoever was on the other side of their communication channels because of a lack of information and divert the plane to another and safer airport. They needed to take their place while the plane was landing, but before it did.
It was a different matter with the personnel working at the airport, though, because they weren\'t involved with the president at all.
Erik gave a look at these guards, or better, these bodyguards.
The guards wore dark suits and even darker looks. They didn\'t show emotions, as their eyes were hidden behind a pair of black sunglasses.
Even not knowing they were here for the president\'s daughter, it was clear they were here to protect a high-profile individual, and even a casual passerby would have understood that.
It was just that there was no one, aside from the Chimaeric Demons, able to see them. These guards were clearly professionals, always looking around for any danger, but were not a real problem. Though, like everyone else here in Hin, and most likely around the world, they were stronger than they should have been.

Frank Lancaster was just one of the many people there, but he represented them well. He was one of the bodyguards, and compared to how strong most humans were, he was powerful. Not as much as the Hevadrin, who had around 100 strength points more than the dude, but still, he was much stronger than the average.
The fact he had 42 neural links was a dangerous sign of the fact that the blackguards and their allies were getting stronger.
Erik shared his training technique with Frant, so it was clear even they were getting stronger, but their forces weren\'t as many as those of the other countries after everything that happened.
He himself was responsible for the deaths of many of the soldiers, and that affected the country\'s total fighting power.
<At least I left the Chimaeric Demons back in Frant, but at this point, given the disparity in numbers, I wonder if they were enough.>
Though, with the plans Erik was brewing and executing in Hin, the war would not last for long, and even if Frant somehow lost the fight before he could get a complete hold of the other countries or defeated the blackguards, he would still end up completely freeing the country from the blackguards\' presence.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
After that, it wasn\'t his job anymore to see what happened there. Erik was still mad with Frant and with Becker about how things had been handled or about what he lived in that country. Yes, maybe part of that was because of the blackguards, but certainly not everything was. While Erik had these thoughts, the Chimaeric Demons arrived at the landing site. Some of them had to go to the control tower to find out when the plane was coming, and just a bunch of them came here.
However, who arrived started scouting out the best places to hide and keep watch. Some of them flew up high, perching on to ceilings or on top of light fixtures. From there, they had a bird\'s-eye view of the entire area.
<Are you all in position?> Erik asked to the Chimaeric Demons.
<We are sir.>
<Good. When should the target arrive?>
<At 15:00, master.>
It was currently 14:00 in the morning, so in an hour, the woman was bound to arrive. At least
in theory.
<Let\'s wait then, and be prepared for a complete takeover of these guards. Also, keep in mind the president\'s daughter will for sure have more people with her, bodyguards included, and we must also replace them.>
<Yes, Master.>
And so they waited.
Erik couldn\'t help but feel nervous as they did. The success of getting a hold on Hin depended on their ability to replace their leaders, but since finding Hin\'s proved to be much harder than usual, they had to resort to kidnappings.
<This is fucking ironic.>
He took a deep breath, as much as a fly could, and tried to calm his nerves. He reminded himself that they had planned this mission carefully, and that everyone knew their role. The Chimaeric Demons weren\'t infallible, but they were close to it as much as he was, and he had no doubt things were going to turn out how he wanted.
<That\'s it if things do not go to shit like the usual...>
Some time passed, and as Erik was lost in thought, he suddenly heard a low, rumbling sound in the distance. It grew louder and louder, and he realized that was the sound of an
approaching plane.
