"I think the nobles of Solaria killed Orion and put the blame on Lunarstella."Anna said in a low voice, but for Isabel it sounded like a bomb."Wha..! mmmfmfmf"Before she shouted, Anna closed her mouth with her hand."Sshsh. Be quiet."Anna said while looking at her surroundings.Fortunately, the knights couldn't hear them and neither did her classmates.Then she turned back to her friend."Isabel. I never trusted the Solaria Empire.""..."Isabel, who was released, listened quietly."Now even less with Orion's death."Anna said in a sad tone."I'm not saying that they are all bastards, but unfortunately, the guy behind Orion's death is probably someone of high ranking in Solaria.""...!"Isabel opened her eyes wide.If what Anna said was true, then they were in constant danger here."Anna, you want to say that they killed Orion just to prevent the truce between Solaria and Lunarstella...?"Isabel asked with a hint of anger in her voice."Yes, Isabel. They killed Orion just for that
Swooooosh!Thud!A strange sound resounded in a forest like an open portal.From the portal, a young man with black hair came out.His clothes were torn and bloodied.His black eyes were sharp as he looked around."A forest?"Aita muttered and looked at the trees around him.Rustle_!The trees shook slightly while the portal slowly closed behind Aita.Aita tried to put his hand back in the portal, but an invisible barrier prevented him from entering the portal.The portal closed and disappeared into the forest as if it had not appeared in the first place.Gurgle_"Sigh... I need to eat something."Aita whispered before leaving.Although his torturer gave him bread and water every day, it was not good at all.In fact, they were probably rotten, but at the time, he had no choice if he wanted to live, so he grudgingly ate.As for Aita, he didn't even remember when it was the last time, but it was probably decades ago.And Soren, it felt like centuries.It had always been Runa who cooked
Yawwwwn____________!The following morning, Aita woke up tired and hungry.He forced himself to eat the five-star dish he made but it was too much for him.Raising his body, he headed again to the same lake and washed himself."I have to get out of this forest."It was his most important objective now.He wanted to get out of the forest and find a town where he could rest for a few days.More importantly, he wanted to eat properly and buy new clothes.After that, he could find a solution to reach Soren's 'world'.He already had an idea of where to start.The space rift.Though even the previous heroes couldn't break through the rift, it was his only clue for now.Whooosh!So he decided to climb on the biggest tree he saw to find the exit of the damn forest.The trees in the forest were all giant but the one he was climbing on was even bigger.At least three hundred meters high.After a few minutes, he reached the top and looked around him.He could see all the other trees which were s
""Uncle Zack!""A girl and a boy rushed toward a kneeling old man.A few strands of white hair were in his black hair and his pale face made him even older."It's okay Luna, Narvi. I just need some rest."Zack said with an exhausted smile."I-I'm sorry uncle...it's all my fault...sniff...sniff"The girl cried profusely, looking at the bodies behind her."What are you saying ? It was our duty and I'm sure the others were happy to give their lives bravely for you..."Zack said with a tender smile."Happy my ass!"Suddenly, a voice rang out on their left."""!!!"""Zack quickly raised his tired body and went in front of the girl and the boy.Snap!A branch's snapping sound echoed as Aita came out from behind a tree.Zack and the other two opened their eyes wide, seeing the young man in front of them.He had an average face but his presence and gaze were anything but average.Strange dark green symbols were tattooed on the right side of his face and his gaze was intimidating."Who would b
Boooom!Aita couldn't even defend himself and he flew off at high speed.Bam!Crash!"Ah! Cough!"Crossing a tree, he coughed up blood.Thud!He fell headfirst to the ground.Sand entered his mouth, consequently."F-Fuck…! Cough! Is that what the saying "bite the dust" means?"Blood oozed profusely from his body as he thought about an important saying."Ah...ah...ah...ah...ah..."A few meters away, Zack was completely exhausted.Thud!He fell to his knees and his breathing was in tatters."Gaah!"The blood came out of his throat and he spat out.A few meters from them, Lena rose slowly.She was looking at the landscape, frozen on the spot.Within a 30-meter radius, there was nothing left but dust.The trees were gone because they were uprooted.She was shocked because it was said that the trees in this forest were extremely robust.Further 30 meters, the trees were cracked and inclined to the side."Uncle!"Narvi shouted and ran to his uncle.Luna recovered from her shock and followed
Aita's eyes twitched as he looked at the two figures in front of him.The boy had short black hair and sapphire blue eyes. Girls would have found him very adorable.The girl was extremely beautiful. Gleaming long silver hair and sublime sapphire blue eyes.She was one of the most beautiful girls Aita had seen, with Evelyn Nychterin and Runa.Liana, Myriam, Melissa and his four classmates were slightly behind.Luna was surprised by Aita's reaction. Normally, the boys would be dazed by her appearance, but Aita was calm.She couldn't know that.Currently, Aita was heavily influenced by Soren's ideology, thus he had only Runa in his eyes now."You..."Aita stared at Luna.Luna smirked at seeing his reaction."As expected, even you...""You are very strong.""Eh ?""You are quite strong, aren't you ?"Aita said, genuinely impressed by Luna's strength."W-Well, thanks I guess ?"Luna didn't know if she should feel happy or not because of his praise. It would have been better if he praised h
"Aita.""What ?"Aita turned around and saw Zack with his black spear."Come with me.""Why ?""Sigh...to hunt of course. We have to eat something tonight."Zack replied in a tired voice."You are stronger than me, right ? You can go alone."Aita said, still fed up about his defeat."I see, you can cook by yourself then."Zack smiled and walked off."..."Aita got a flashback from his cooking of the day before and stood up slowly."I guess, I can help an old man."Saying that, he walked ahead of Zack.Zack shook his head and followed him."Be careful uncle, he may kill you in your back."Selena said in a half-worried and half-mocking tone.Aita ignored her and ran ahead."Don't worry, he wouldn't do that."Zack said before running as well.One hour later..."Old man! You stole my prey!"Aita complained in an angry tone."Calm down Aita. I just did it quickly as you were taking your time.""What is happening ?"Selena asked, peeking her head out of the cave's entrance.They found the c
"Ahahahah!""Hey, old man don't interrupt our warrior's fight."Aita frowned as he really wanted to see how strong Selena was.A vein popped out on Selena's forehead.Taking a deep breath, she turned toward her uncle."Uncle ?""Ah! Sorry Selena, It's just that you are showing plenty of emotions these last hours. No one in the Empire would recognize the current you."Zack said with a smile.Selena was viewed as a model princess in the Empire after all.She was strong, gentle and always remained calm..."I-I..."Selena became embarrassed from her behavior.Then without looking at Aita and Zack, she continued to cook."Tsk."Aita clicked his tongue and sat back.Few minutes later, the meal was ready.Aita couldn't help but feel hungry because of the nice fragrance drifting in the air."It's ready."Selena said, bringing the skewers.Aita took a skewer and ate a bit."!"He opened his eyes wide and finished the skewer in a second.The deer's meat was roasted like Aita did the day before
