Each member of their crew was at least of Deme-rank, making them the strongest in the Lesser Blood Ocean. The four generals, Spades included, were of Astra-rank. Deluge himself was as strong as an empyrean in fighting powers and mana, but his abilities were far beyond that. This lineup made them stronger than most guilds in the world, a force to be reckoned with.
At the current moment, Spades watched that same force being torn apart, shredded to pieces in the face of a single man. To be fair, the man was no man, and the crew had lost their abilities. But it was a shocking sight to see Clubs being torn apart with bare hands, and for Hearts to be flicked off like an annoying bug.
