Rainy nights shrouded the world in darkness, a veil many found unsuitable for a hunt. Yet, for those who thrived in the cover of night, it was an ideal time. The Verdant Brothers, led by the formidable Eren ‘Sun Fire,’ were a renowned team of adventurers capable of tackling the most suicidal quests. When they posted a notice at the Adventurer Guild seeking a porter, Talon seized the chance, believing he could earn guild merits without facing much danger under their protection.He was gravely mistaken.Panting behind his shield, Talon winced as blood dripped from his broken arm. His shield, now a warped mess, had partially fused with his left hand from Eren's fiery attacks. The other team members watched, their eyes glinting with amusement, some even laughing at his plight. Anger and helplessness churned within him.Just half an hour earlier, they had been escorting a treasure-laden caravan from Fort Avarack in the Lupin Mountain Range to Ironflower Duchy under the Duke's request.

The camp stirred to life as the news spread. Resting adventurers jumped to their feet, weapons drawn. The tension in the air was palpable as everyone braced for the incoming fight. Talon tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword, Neophage Fang.Magnus climbed onto a boulder, his voice cutting through the mounting chaos. “Listen up!” he called out. “We’re outnumbered and far from any reinforcements. But we’ve faced worse. I trust every one of you—your strength, your courage. Let’s show these monsters what it means to be a Blue Devil!”A roar of approval erupted from the group, weapons raised high as confidence surged through the crowd. Talon couldn’t help but join in, his own voice blending with the shouts of his comrades. Adrenaline coursed through him, makin
The camp was still, the night blanketing everything in silence. Talon sat cross-legged near his tent, eyes closed. His mind drifted, and soon a white, foggy door appeared in the void of his thoughts. He pushed it open, stepping into his personal space: Black Iron Talon.The island looked the same as always—quiet, solitary, with colorful clouds rolling at its distant edges. At the center stood the familiar podium, glowing softly under a ray of golden light. Above it, a floating screen pulsed faintly.“Admin,” Talon called out.— How can I assist?“When I enter Black Iron Talon, is it just my mind, or can I bring my body here too?” he asked, considering the potential for escape if things went south in a fight.&md
The Onyx Grasslands were quiet at night, a surprising calm given how many monsters roamed the area during the day. The stars overhead twinkled against the deep black sky, their light washing over the wide plains. Talon sat on a flat rock a short distance from the camp, staring at the constellations.I wonder how Vaila’s doing, he thought, his sister’s smile flashing briefly in his mind.The thought stirred him to open his system interface. With a mental command, the familiar translucent screen appeared before him. A notification blinked, and he opened it.[Mission Details:— Killed: 12/100 Monsters— Reward: 4,800 Coins. 1 Karma.]He confirmed t
“Space-Time Freeze.”Magnus’s voice rang out across the battlefield, and everything stopped. The charging monsters froze mid-lunge, the swaying grass halted, and even the crackling of distant flames seemed to vanish. Only Magnus moved, his blade pointed directly at the Wild Pastor.The cultist, locked in mid-motion with his staff raised defensively, couldn’t react as a beam of ice energy shot from Magnus’s blade, piercing his chest. Frost spread rapidly over his body, encasing him entirely in a thick shell of shimmering ice.For a moment, there was complete silence. Then a faint sound like breaking glass echoed across the field, and time resumed. The monsters that had been frozen in motion collapsed lifelessly to the ground.Magnus swayed on
A mutated ram charged with a force that made the ground tremble. Jefor reacted instantly, slamming his foot into the earth. A large rock shot up, blocking the ram’s path. The collision shattered the rock, sending jagged pieces flying everywhere, but the brief moment of delay was all Jefor needed.The ground shifted beneath his feet like a rolling wave as he raised his hands. Spikes of jagged rock shot up around the ram, trapping it. Then, with a sharp motion, Jefor brought his hands together, and the rock formations slammed inward, crushing the beast under their weight.Before he could catch his breath, a shadow passed overhead. He looked up just as a massive bird, nearly the size of an elephant, slammed into the ground nearby. The force of its fall kicked up dirt and grass, almost knocking him over.Merisa st
Talon wasn’t sure what came first: the pack of mutated monsters lunging at them or Jefor stomping the ground, sending a shockwave rippling out in all directions. The ground trembled, and everyone fought to stay on their feet.Rocks and chunks of earth flew into the charging creatures, pelting them, but the effect was minimal. The monsters barely slowed, their glowing eyes locked on the adventurers as they surged forward.Before Talon could even process what was happening, Merisa and Brythan shot toward the monsters like streaks of silver light. As they ran, gleaming armor materialized around them. Merisa’s daggers flashed into her hands, and massive wings unfurled from her back. With a powerful leap, she soared into the air and dove straight into the swarm.Her daggers sliced through the first wave of creatures like a scythe cutting through grass. Each strike she landed caused a ripple of destruction, sending blood spraying from nearby monsters as they staggered and fell. In seconds,
The Blue Devils regrouped at the edge of the forest where it opened into a stretch of grasslands. Talon wiped his forehead, the heat from the sun and their trek making the air feel thick. He walked beside Magnus, his steps quickening as they neared the others.The group looked worn. Recruits sat on rocks or leaned against trees, some wrapping bandages around their arms or legs. The tension hung heavy in the air, and the scattered groans of the injured made it clear the mission hadn’t gone smoothly.Merisa waved them over, her twin daggers resting in their sheathes but ready to be drawn at a moment’s notice. “You’re late,” she called out, her voice sharp but teasing.Magnus smirked. “We ran into a little trouble.”“Didn’t we all?” Orthur said, his massive frame slumping against a tree. His armor was scraped and dented, streaks of dried blood on the metal. He wasn’t the only one—several others bore signs of recent battles.Magnus’s expression turned serious. “Status?”Merisa stepped clo
They soon stepped out of the building, with a crowd of adventurers trailing after them. The first person to act was Eren.Fiery crimson orbs materialized around Eren, their heat distorting the air as they rapidly expanded from the size of melons to massive, swirling boulders of flame. Without warning, they detonated in a series of deafening blasts.The ground shook violently, and thick clouds of dust and smoke consumed the street. The shockwaves hurled debris into the air, shattering nearby windows. Screams filled the chaos as panicked citizens fled in all directions.The explosion rippled toward the Adventurer Guild, but the building’s enchanted walls shimmered with protective runes. The runes flared to life, absorbing the blast and shielding the structure from harm.Eren’s face was set in a grim mask as he barked, “Adrian, now!”Adrian didn’t hesitate. His hands hovered near each other, the air between them shimmering like water disturbed by a stone. The ripple expanded outward, a vo
