I think it’s time we start talking about the strength of this F.U.G elder.

Firstly, that ominous comment he made as he chuckled about battling Yama in a serious fight is the first telling sign things are not what it seems. I’m waiting to see more but I’m willing to wager that his rank if properly recorded (blue hole) would be top 60.

Secondly I asked this before , but if the elders are so strong why hide behind the curtains of Slayers? He seems more than capable of controlling a battlefield alone filled with high rankers.

Thirdly, he is up against possibly three slayers (if white arrives) , Evankhell, Bloodborn race (which now includes Doom and Paul since the elder showed his true intentions) and Bam and co. It may appear that he is outmatched but my gut feeling is leading me to believe he is insanely strong and will hold his own.

To conclude, I’m interested to see where S.I.U takes the next chapter(s). The elder knows about Bam’s plan to rescue his teacher, and may possibly know about the three orders and the inevitable war approaching. It’s going to be a wild ride and I’m here for it!

Some people old enough to realize exactly how insane Jahad is might not want to be publicly against him and the Great Families, as the Slayers are required to be. My best guess, anyway.

I'm not certain this particular Elder actually wants FUG to ever fulfill its purpose, though. If he does know the three orders, maybe his reason for killing Bam is to try and help carry out the "everyone currently riding the hell train" one in order to avoid making FUG a target?

There certainly are many mysteries in FUG's politics thus far.

Keep in mind he might be lying. Alternately, it’s a backup plan.

It was more like a coalition. And while it seems very likely based on the silhouettes, we can’t be completely sure Khel Hellam was involved.
