‘Looks like you finally went and did it, Adonis,’ Rey thought to himself as he watched Adonis storm out of the room. Even though Rey pretended to be shocked like everyone else, inside, he couldn't help but smile.‘Don’t blame yourself too much Adonis. This was inevitable.’There was no denying that not all twenty-eight students would prove equally useful to the cause. Rey knew most of them would eventually abandon the Alliance. It wasn’t pessimism; it was being realistic.He understood his classmates well enough to see through their façades. They weren’t the selfless, altruistic type; they were just teenagers seeking fun, carefree lives.The only reason they stuck around for this long was due to the perks of developing their powers and learning survival skills.Once they could no longer gain anything from the Royal Estate, they were bound to leave.‘It’s unfair, but that’s just how it is…’Only a few were going to remain, and while not all of them had the purest of intentions, Rey

Gary’s eyes were seeing red.A blurry, nauseating sight of danger and death clouded his vision.Death was no stranger to him; he had seen his fair share of it, along with pain and gore.But, nothing he had ever experienced compared to this moment.Seeing his comrades—the ones he joked and played games with earlier—reduced to mere lifeless chunks of meat, caused his stomach to churn and his throat to burn.Were it not for the searing pain in his arm, and the certainty of death that weighed heavily on him, Gary was certain that he would have vomited once again.“G-guahhh… ahhh… arghhh…” Tears mixed with drool slipped down his face, and mucus flowed from his nose and he shivered.He looked like a pathetic sniveling rat that could only tremble in the face of danger.“Ahh… I suppose I was being a bit impatient. For a moment there, I thought you were reaching for a weapon.”The way the masked figure spoke so casually, despite Gary just losing an arm, made a flickering flame of rage burn wit

“Sir Seller… are you sure this is the Item you desire? We have better items available, and I’m not sure this suits your… style.”As Aldred said this, Rey inspected the item once more, cradling it in his palm.The enchanted item in question was a ring. It had a pure white surface, with an amber crystal affixed at the top.The amber crystal reminded him of Alicia, leading him to recall a big blunder he had made.‘I completely forgot about her!’They had both exchanged glances and smiles numerous times that morning, so perhaps she had expected them to hang out.‘My mind was so swamped that I didn’t even remember her!’ Rey thought, panicking already.That was when he made a choice that, though illogical, felt deeply fulfilling emotionally."It’s not... for me," Rey replied to Aldred with a dismissive tone.He could already see Noah smirking beneath his hooded disguise, and he felt like punching his teeth out.‘So what if I got it for Alicia? It’s normal for friends to get each other gifts

‘What should I say?’Rey racked his brain to think of a way to circumvent the issue without resorting to a lie or telling the whole truth.“How do you think I did that? My Skill allows me to temporarily transform my body and—!” He started to demonstrate but was cut off by Lady Vida's next words.“Just answer the question. Did you leave the Royal Estate or not? And If you indeed left the estate, where did you go?”These were extremely precise questions that required direct answers for him.‘She's got me cornered!’ Rey clenched his teeth, seeing her smirk. She seemed to enjoy his predicament a bit too much.‘I don’t like how she’s looking down on me. That condescending gaze… it annoys me!’The more he hesitated, the more suspicious he looked. Rey knew that much already.‘I’ve already denied many allegations, and successfully at that.’But one wrong move now could undo all his efforts.With no other escape route, Rey gave up and reluctantly resorted to his last option.“I… I refuse to a

“G-GERUK!”In Hobgoblin tongue, that meant “Monster!”As the Hobgoblin Chief absorbed the reality of his people's deaths, that word kept playing in his mind over and over again.Dozens of Hobgoblins were slayed in a single moment, and the voice of their killer echoed in depraved laughter as he inflicted an unjust punishment.Just what… what did he and his people do to deserve this?!For the seven months that he had been the Chief of the Hobgoblins, they had enjoyed nothing but peace and prosperity.The Chief had eagerly looked forward to the day when he could relinquish his duties and join his ancestors in the earth. It seemed that day would arrive within a month or two, and he had been anticipating it happily.Yet, this had to happen in his lifetime? During his rulership?Why?!The ancient fables of the Hobgoblin society told of a time when they were the prey of the NightWolves, but thanks to the leadership of the great KoKuKa, the Hob Chief at the time, they were able to turn the
