With utmost caution, they advanced towards the hidden lair of the subterranean cult. Their footfalls, gentle as whispers, betrayed no hint of their presence as they glided past the vigilant sentinels stationed along the periphery.Halting momentarily amidst the concealing embrace of the dense foliage, they observed five guards stationed at the entrance to the cavern. Kain surreptitiously signaled Eran to lead the way, and he proceeded with the stealth of a shadow, his movements soundless as he traversed the grassy terrain. Upon nearing their adversaries, Eran sprang forth with celerity, vanishing into obscurity with nary a sound.Without delay, Eran beat the five guards, swiftly and undetected. Then the three of them moved their bodies in the grass, ensuring that their presence remained imperceptible to any prying eyes.They infiltrated the cave's entrance, resembling a colossal maw in the rocky visage, and embarked upon a descent into the abyssal, lightless passage. The
Taneaya was shocked when she heard the boom, she turned her head to see the source of the sound. Gyro was standing with his mace that he had just smashed into the metal cell."Well...well...it looks like I'm disturbing your activities," Gyro said, walking over to Taneaya."You guys run out of this place, there are no guards so you can run safely," Taneaya said to the group of girls she freed."Thank you, ma'am," said one of the girls, then they ran away from her."You're very beautiful miss, you're the best of the bunch of girls I've ever seen, come here you will be satisfied every day," said Gyro when he was in front of Taneaya.Taneaya looked furious, she glanced at the front right side, there were two more girls still in prison."How about it pretty lady, do you accept my offer," Gyro said while sticking out his tongue."You old pervert!" shouted Taneaya as she darted towards Gyro.Taneaya attacked relentlessly with her two swords left and right.

A deadly battle between Kain, Eran, and Barpus, the bandit leader who was an expert in using long chain weapons with sharp blades at the end. Eran, Kain, and Barpus were facing each other in the center of a silent cave hall filled with the scent of blood.Eran stared into the cold eyes of the bandit leader, he could feel the evil energy emanating from the deadly weapon. "The weapon is very disturbing," he muttered, then glanced at Kain who was standing tall next to him."That's why I've been dodging," Kain replied firmly, holding his hammer tightly. He knew that this battle would be a difficult test for both of them.The bars laughed coldly, "You're just a bunch of confident mercenaries. You'll both die along with this village!" he said as he swung his long chain weapon deftly.Eran and Kain moved, coordinating with each other to attack the bandit leader from all directions. However, Barpus skillfully dodged each of their attacks, and his weapon spun quickly to form
With a face full of rage he threw his long chains at Kain, trying to trap him. However, Cain quickly raised his two hammers and blocked the chains perfectly. The two hammers emitted sparks as they collided with Barpus' long chains.Taneaya, seeing an opportunity to attack, rushed forward quickly toward Barpus. She arched her sword with lightning speed, trying to cut through Barpus' long chains. However, the agile Barpus managed to dodge in the blink of an eye and turned quickly to face Taneaya.Eran began to launch his attacks, trying to see through Barpus' small openings. Each move was quick and deadly, but it was difficult as the puffer man kept moving nimbly and dodged Eran's attacks nimbly.Kain, during this battle, felt the pressure increasing, his wounds aching again. Barpus' long chains continued to spin at high speed, creating a dangerous stretch that was difficult to dodge.Taneaya tried to keep her distance from Barpus. She knew that she
Again and again, she was devastated by the stories she heard about her family. Taneaya had no idea that behind the seeming peace and prosperity, the kingdom also had a very dark and nasty side.Taneaya was devastated by the fact that her eldest brother and the greatest person in her eyes, Prince Enid, was involved in a despicable crime. The prince, who was supposed to be an example and role model for his people, was involved in acts that violated the law and morality. A feeling of disappointment and heartbreak came over Taneaya as if the foundations of her beliefs about justice and royal dignity were shaken.At that moment, Taneaya realized that reality does not always match what she imagined. Enid, whom she had admired and trusted, had a very dark side. Taneaya pondered and tried to find answers within herself. She wondered if there was any way she could clear her kingdom's name and bring back justice and honor. However, there was no clear answer in her mind.
At the same time on the eastern side of the Kingdom of Berillan, the group of Theo, Uldor, Gorstag, and Catallina, were already on their way. They received a very important assignment from King Berillan to carry out a secret mission.The mission they received was to investigate the source of a mysterious disease that had recently spread in several parts of the kingdom. This bad news had already reached the ears of King Berillan, and he wanted to find the root of the problem. There were reports that the town of Blanchill was the starting point of this outbreak. The town was famous for being a city that lived off of fertile livestock.The plague became even more alarming when the symptoms of the disease were similar to what Theo's entourage encountered on their way to the royal palace. Their skin peeled off until their bones were exposed. The gruesome sight led the kingdom to give the Band of de Sun an investigative mission.They felt a sense of apprehension
Gorstag swore. "This forest makes my head float!" He covered his nose with a cloth. "The air is so humid, I don't like it!"Uldor glanced at Gorstag. "Keep your voice down! Our voices can be heard!" Uldor admonished in a whisper."That's right, this forest is very humid, there's a lot of moss growing on the ground and rocks," explained Theo, who walked ahead. "And I read in a book that Okren Forest used to be a hiding place for demons when they were expelled from the sky," Theo added.Theo, Uldor, and Gorstag walked slowly through the dense Okren forest. The sunlight grew dimmer as the towering trees covered the sky."Then you believe those obscure myths made up by the ancients?" asked Gorstag."Hmm...I believe everything written in the book because it was all based on previous people's experiences and stories," Theo replied."So you believe Iblis exist?" asked Gorstag again. Uldor just listened to the conversation between his tw
Gorstag wanted to vomit at the unnatural acting of his leader."I'm Hars, and this is Erwan," while pointing at the skinny man beside him then he pointed at the big man next to Erwan."The big one is Dapo."Theo bowed his head, then introduced himself, "Theo and the stupid man next to me is Gorstag and the quiet man is Uldor.""If we may know, which guild mission did you take?" asked Hars who was sitting across from Theo."From the Alku Guild in Alku Village. Well, you must have heard, for mercenaries who haven't taken a mission in a while. This assignment is the easiest while restoring our lost touch," Theo replied reassuringly."Have you not taken a mission in a while?" asked Erwan probingly.Theo let out a long sigh, then made a sad face. "To be more precise I... It's been almost 5 years since I took any mission, I took a long break." Theo paused his story for a moment and then continued, "That's because I got a really bad stomach wound during my first miss
