Erasmus was Thirteen's secret weapon here in Artem, so he made sure to keep it a secret even from the Jinns who had accompanied them.
After ordering the Leaders of the Jinns to find a place to hide their massive armies, Thirteen and Cranky left to investigate the town that the scouts had seen earlier.
"This is as far as you go, Rocky," Thirteen told his friend, who had brought him a mile away from the town. "Try to conceal your presence as much as possible, and do not enter the town. They might have a way of detecting monsters that we don't know about."
Rocky nodded before going back underground to wait for his Master's next order.
After making sure that there was no one around them, Thirteen opened the portal that led to the Domain of the Apocalypse.
A moment later, Erasmus crossed over.
He hid his face with a mask and blended in by wearing the customary daily fashion of the Artem nobility.
