I'm going to be honest. You have two choices right now.

'Choices?'

Either you get killed by him or give your body to the King of Essence.

Wrath declared solemnly, as if he was merely stating the truth.

Those are the only choices you have right now.

Burren Zieghart was double checking the wooden fence that he had installed with the other trainees.

'It's pretty good.'

Since they had used the method learned from the instructors, the fence's durability wasn't too bad despite having been built in a short time.

It looked like it could withstand orcs or goblin attacks without much difficulty.

The materials mostly came out from Dorian's pocket. It was helpful, but he couldn't understand why he was carrying all that.

"Sir Burren, Raon has disappeared along with the village chief. Is that alright?"

The collateral that was right behind him approached him and whispered.

"So what?"

Burren turned around and asked back.

"I mean, the village chief might give him some treasure, and if he takes them for himself..."

"That's a meaningless worry."

He snickered and shook his head.

"I'm sure you are also aware of it. If Raon wasn't here, not only us but the entire village would've drowned in our own blood. Whatever he receives or learns isn't for us to argue. And..."

The collaterals shut their mouths, hearing his voice coming from the bottom of his heart.

"We are all using the name Zieghart. Competing between us in order to get stronger is fine, but there's no reason to fight or begrudge each other when we are outside. You must've realized this to a certain extent already."

"Hmm, that's..."

"That's right."

The collateral trainees nodded.

'He is correct.'

The trainees had been deeply impressed by Raon from the battle against the Green War Demon. Honestly, they couldn't feel any hatred or jealousy against him anymore.

"It looks like the insects have finally come to their senses."

"Martha?"

Burren raised his head, hearing the belittling voice. Martha was swinging her legs on top of a tree next to the wooden fence.

"Why are you here?"

"I came to check if you built the wooden fence properly."

"How is the wooden fence then?"

"Not too bad considering your sloppiness. I guess your head isn't completely made of stones."

"Get out of my sight if you've finished checking. We are going to finish up here."

"There's only one person who can order me around."

Martha came down from the tree, snorting. As she was about to walk towards Burren, a rustling sound could be heard from the bushes.

"Who's there?"

"Right there, come out!"

As Burren and Martha lowered their postures, a silver-haired girl burst out of the bush.
