Azazel and Nadena glanced at each other, unaware the kingdom they had arrived in had such a complicated problem; a sense of regret had already enveloped them."What should we do?" Nadena asked, seeking confirmation from Azazel on whether they should leave or stay there.They knew they would have to accept all risks if they continued to stay.Azazel closed his eyes significantly, trying to think of the best solution to this problem.Despite the long reluctance he felt, he couldn't dismiss this as just a simple problem.Being involved might create further problems if he stayed."I don't know, but it seems we can't leave. For some time, we'll stay in this city, and in a few days, we'll decide to leave..." he replied firmly."Alright, but regarding that matter! You have to pay the appropriate taxes..." Rafelina was reluctant to state this, seeming like someone forcing profit from this situation."I understand..." Azazel takes out money from within emptiness, materializing it like miraculo

"You don't have any extra resources, why should you seek help from someone like me, who doesn't have a clear origin? If you expect freedom, at the very least, you could have found much more competent individuals..."Zandrove sighed in resignation, slowly gazing towards Azazel's face, with wrinkles starting to form on his forehead. In just a few seconds, he could have shed tears full of sadness, but he felt it was unnecessary. Azazel wasn't someone who would willingly show sympathy towards others."Actually, the situation here is already very chaotic. We're having a hard time figuring out how to resolve this quickly! If we leave it alone, we won't have a chance to survive! A sudden solution arose: one of the Guild unions informed us of a wanderer unbound by the rules of an adventurer; he was willing to do anything for a big payday. That's when the idea came to make you someone we could trust to solve this problem."It was something Azazel had never imagined. He had always thought that

Nadena felt she had to give in to Azazel's cold demeanor; every time she asked a question, it was always ignored. Moreover, Azazel doesn't seem to care about her feelings."Huh... why do you always harbor suspicion about me? Do you think of me as a partner?""I never invited you to be my companion, and moreover, I never intended to involve you in situations like this! You decided to join me, always claiming that you had enough strength to protect yourself..."Nadena was once again stunned by these words, trying to escape the harsh reality that had been so firmly spoken."What else can I do? I've tried my best in everything, but I'm still not accepted by you! How can I be accepted by you?"The desperate and longing gaze she used to try to catch Azazel's attention was in vain. She hoped that Azazel would provide some understanding in return, but all she received was the same cold stare that she couldn't understand.She felt she had no way out; there was no hope left for her here."Geez,

"Your Highness, isn't it too dangerous to take the risk of confronting the enemy directly?" The Guild Master firmly opposed what had just been discussed.Alicia looked at people's faces; only she was able to determine what action should be taken, and her decision would determine the current situation."I don't want to say this, but it seems that something like this cannot be underestimated! The enemy has already invaded various regions, and it's difficult to let them continue their actions! If left to continue, all of this will lead to unimaginable destruction! I don't want to let this happen, and we must take action! Even if, in the end, I'll be seen as a tyrant, then I'm ready to accept the consequences..."Alicia's readiness had gone too far; they couldn't oppose something like this.Even though the words uttered by the Guild Master didn't seem to have any effect, it appeared that Alicia remained firm in her thoughts."I don't mind what you'll command; indeed, it would be more trou

Whoosh! Whoosh...It was no problem for Azazel to cover long distances, like a ninja who can run very fast.He could travel quite quickly and arrive at a location marked on the map in about 4 hours.However, before entering the environment, he ensured its safety first. His main goal was clear: here, he only needed to conduct an investigation.Skillfully, he sneaked around, observing many people doing their activities.Many of their faces are full of worry, filled with weariness in facing these difficult situations.They were tired of the wars that had been ongoing for several years. The residents there didn't seem pleased with the situation either.Casually, Azazel walked through the city streets. The fortress before him was covered by a dense wall, but he wasn't completely sure this fortress would be able to protect all residents.Moreover, this was now the last fortress. It was natural the palace side was truly concerned about the condition of this fortress. If this fort were to be
