Haven City is basically a large hellhole for the vile and scum people alive. The kingdom will send most of the detained criminals to the city and let them have freedom and free reign over the place. One thing the city respects the most is the farmers who are assigned to cultivate small gardens and raise livestock.These farmers are also criminals but everybody respects and treat them with the utmost care, for they are the only people that bring food to their table. But there is also another source of food, importing them from theoutside world."It is recorded that no Estarians had ever been successful in climbingover that wall that is about fifty meters tall."One can raise their head all the way up to the point that it would hurt but they will barely see what's at the top of the thick impenetrable wall."If I want to break down all these highrise walls, I will need some explosives. A much more powerful explosive, enough to shatter the thi

The rancid and stenchy smell coming from the bottle dungeon was enough to fend them off and push them away from learning the truth.Vinyl's accurate inspection was enough for Cleoantra to not push further into the matter."Let's go back. I can't bear the disgusting smell any longer.""Oh, I'm glad you thought of that! I was thinking you'd choose to stay there forever! Anyway, don't worry about Hubert. He'll eventually come back.""I'm not worried about him. What I'm worried about is the task he'sassigned to do."Vinyl and Cleoantra reported back to King Estaroth upon further inspecting the person whom they were sure to be Invictus.They then went back to complete their mission given to them by the king himself.***A day in Haven City would not go by without people shedding blood, fighting among themselves, hurting each other, and stealing even from their friends.People barely experience peace in Haven City beca

Instead of using the short sword in his hand, Invictus opted for physical violence and delivered mental strain on his attackers. He could have easily killed them with traps had he set up some but he didn't.Adrenaline and exhilaration drive Invictus to enjoy the hunt. Adding a little spice to the game of hunting is the enjoyment he desires and his ego seeks.Nothing is better than the excitement of fighting monsters and people gives him. A part of him is a battle maniac, always looking for thatexhilaration a fight to death gives him.Excitement is like fuel to his desire for vengeance. The greater itsamount, the livelier he feels. In this world where he had nothing more to lose, even the life he holds dear was somehow taken away from him, the only thing that has got him moving is his unsatisfied desire for vengeance and despair."Once this whole kingdom is plunged in chaos and turmoil, I shall perish from the face of the earth, for my work

"I can't see the spark, the radiance that surrounds you when I first encountered you, Invictus! What can you do all by yourself?!"Jorp must have hit his head or Invictus must have kicked him hard for his comprehension to become low. He was not getting what Invictus was explaining to him and kept repeating the same question over and over again.Jorp was on all fours, weak and unable to fight back after throwing up a couple of times now."Telling you how I'll achieve my goals will just go inside from one ear and left to another. So, let me show you this."Invictus tightly grabbed Jorp by his hair, lifting his head up to see what he was about to do. In his hand was his weapon, his short sword, catching Jorp's attention as the tip slowly crept on Invictus' neck."If you blink, you will not see what I am about to do. Therefore, keep your eyes open. I'll only do this once since it sure will hurt like a bitch."Invictus was about to inflict pain on himself, something he does not usually do,

"Fool, those deities do not watch over us anymore. They abandoned theirpeople a long time ago. But... becoming their target to put an end to me isn't impossible to happen."Invictus offered a hand to Jorp, pulling the man, who was still in a state of utmost shock, up."I haven't agreed to work with you or become your pawn. But I'm willing to listen to what you have to say.""I'm glad that I don't have to resort to violence again, Jorp, just to make you comply.""What sort of evil schemes do you have in your mind if I resisted?!""Things you would wish you didn't know. You'd hope that you could comply as soon as you can."A tool, accomplice, pawn, disposable hand, state whatever you desire here, but Invictus' trust will be hard to earn. He might even never trust anyone again because of the people that dared take advantage of it"Always onward towards better things."Haven City was plunged into chaos and bloodbath every n
