Regardless, he still wouldn't believe the person's words."Hey, don't look at me like that! Am I not convincing enough?"There was no need for Azazel to respond; the killer's aura may have waned, but it was still strong enough to be felt."So, what do you mean by all of this?" He knew continuing like this would only make things worse. He wanted to know the purpose of this mysterious figure as soon as possible.The masked individual took slow steps, both hands behind that person's back, deliberately adopting a relaxed demeanor to toy with Azazel's anger."I know you're looking for someone! More precisely, a fugitive who is wanted by many people in various cities! But it seems you're having trouble! It's a shame that someone as talented as you is facing difficulty in something like this!""And? If you came to meet me in this state, there must be something urgent you want to talk about! Just tell me where that person is, and our business will be concluded!"The masked figure chuckled. Az
It was a dubious answer. Azazel immediately took action, his right palm wide open with energy flowing and gathering into one.Sparks of fire began to fill a single point, ready to be unleashed.Kaboom...Next was a massive explosion that shook the ground, and from a distance, several birds suddenly fled the area."So, it has begun..." The masked figure had been anticipating all of this, seeking the safest spot to observe everything.Emerging from the cave was Azazel, and this man's body looked quite battered after the explosion."Damn! Apparently, he used some ability to anticipate my attack!"Clearly, in Azazel's memory, the attack he had intended to release had been interrupted by this explosion."Hey! Hey! Hey! Why are you doing this? Have I done something wrong to deserve this?"The figure had revealed itself, with an arrogant expression. His eyes were indeed a deep red.It took Azazel by surprise; this was not the person he had been looking for."Have I been deceived by that pers
The masked figure who had led him to this place dared to reveal itself.The fiery emotions within Azazel's body wanted to burst out toward that person, but he hesitated, unsure if the person was merely a guide.They both arrived at a gripping scene of silence, watching each other with already radiating auras."I did not trap you!"Suddenly, an object was thrown, a black object that slowly unraveled in the sunlight until everything became clear.A head, yes, that's right. A man's head had rolled and stopped right behind Azazel's feet.Upon closer inspection, the face did not feel unfamiliar. Indeed, it was the face of the person he was looking for."What is the meaning of all this?" Azazel asked coldly."I killed this person, and you can get paid for it!" the masked person replied casually.<
A man with a serious expression was already there, his demeanor seemed to challenge Azazel to a fight.However, Azazel maintained a calm expression; he wouldn't act foolishly in front of someone he had just met.For the first step, he advanced with a seriousness reflected on his face.They continued to exchange glances, their gazes making the air feel hotter.Azazel felt this wasn't a result of power but rather something often referred to as charisma and authority.Without hesitation, Azazel lowered his eyelids and said, "I came here to claim the promised quest reward!"For a moment, he was surprised by this; it was the first time someone had spoken with such a tone. But it wasn't surprising; adventurers had their wild natures. Encounters like this were common."Yes, I will indeed give you the reward! But before that, I want you to
Henrien raised his body and shook his head with a face full of regret."I also don't know how this situation could have occurred. The crystal appeared suddenly as if it had been planned to be used against someone else! However, what I know is this has become fairly common knowledge! Knowledge acquired through several books containing forbidden magic! Once again, I couldn't know..."If it had come this far, Azazel indeed seemed to have to give up. He wouldn't find anything by bombarding Henrien with various questions."So, it's still a mystery that's difficult to solve even now!""Yes..."After that, no words adorned the room, and the atmosphere quickly turned awkward.Especially for two men in the same room, they certainly weren't people who liked to stare at each other.Azazel still seemed to be drowning in various questions, all based o
The blue sky grew denser as the sun disappeared, a sign that sent shivers down everyone's spine.The guards tried to secure the situation, advising all residents to seek shelter in the largest building in the town. It was the safest place for them, but for Azazel, it might not be enough to stop the chaos unfolding.Those who were fearful needed protection, and adventurers gathered neatly in front of the Guild.The night sky brought with it a sense of tranquility, and even their voices hesitated to disturb the silence.Henrien appeared, causing everyone to tense up. His presence was a clear sign that a battle involving every soul and body was imminent."I am quite pleased with all of you who have gathered here. You must already know the current situation!"One thing here puzzled Azazel. The information previously mentioned had been meant exclusively for those with high abilities, but it seemed to involve adventurers of various ranks as well.The reason didn't matter much, but Azazel wo
Crash!The abilities of this girl are truly fascinating, gracefully dancing amidst a sea of monsters. The two daggers in her hands seemed to have no time to rest, with each elegant movement capable of delivering a significant impact.Azazel squinted his eyes as he watched, realizing this remarkable skill couldn't be dismissed as a mere performance. He understood that such power was either acquired through extensive experience or, perhaps, a natural talent.Whatever the case, it made the spectacle even more captivating to witness."She's Asteris!" one of the amazed adventurers exclaimed, admiring the girl's display.However, Asteris alone couldn't be relied upon. Those monsters seemed to be multiplying, and not just in one location. Many of them met their end with agonizing cries.They needed additional help to deal with this situation.Ba
"Even in such dire conditions, he was still able to overcome it..." Rezail felt his spirit being squeezed by fear that was increasingly contaminated by the evil aura of this monster.In the midst of this tumultuous atmosphere, Asteris bravely stepped forward to deliver a swift slash.Swung...Plunging sharply to tear through with the dagger, the back of the monster's neck became the perfect target for her.However, the aura it possessed was strong enough to bring awareness to the monster.Ting...In just a few seconds, the monster turned its body to withstand the attack, and they clashed for a brief moment.Asteris didn't have the strength to engage in a power struggle, so her body was sent flying about 4 meters, not wanting to meet the same fate as Rovilio, her body began to perform acrobatic movements. Three backward flips to avoid a ba
