"Tsk."

Zieghart's South-West branch office manager, Brukas, clicked his tongue while heading towards Cebu village.

'Did he mention Eden?'

A trainee named Krein came up to him and told him Eden had appeared in Cebu village.

Apparently Raon Zieghart noticed the Red Eye Demon's observation, but that sounded like bullshit to him.

In order to notice a Red Eye Demon's gaze, one needed to be at least an intermediate Expert.

It didn't make any sense that Raon, who was only fifteen years old, would notice.

"Branch manager, do we really need to go when it doesn't even make any sense? We've already investigated it, you know."

The branch's vice-manager, Serviane, came next to him and complained. He seemed to be complaining since he was the one who investigated Cebu village and Cebu Mountain.

"It's not because of Raon. It's because Burren, Runaan, and Martha are over there. If something happens to those three, our entire branch office might be executed."

"Aww, that sounds awful."

"Manage your expression. You have to... Huh?"

Brukas's eyes widened upon seeing the blood on the road towards the village. Upon following the stream of blood flowing like a river, a huge green body came into view.

"O-ogre?"

A round and brutal face. A body and limbs as thick as several logs piled up together. It was an ogre's corpse, the tyrant of the mountain.

"It's an ogre!"

"Wh-why is an ogre here?"

"Moreover, there are two of them..."

The branch's swordsmen swallowed, standing in front of the ogres' corpses.

"Hmm..."

Brukas frowned after examining the ogres' corpses. What killed them was a single strike hitting their weak point, a master's attack.

'I don't know about Eden, but something happened for sure.'

People's blood and clothes could also be found on top of the ogres' corpses and blood.

"Stay on red alert."

The light in Brukas's eyes changed. He immediately started running towards the village, and the branch's swordsmen also followed him with serious expressions.

Finding the village's entrance, which looked like it was crushed by a passing giant, they increased the speed even further. When they were about to cross the center of the village, the trainees appeared in front of them.

"You..."

Brukas couldn't finish his sentence upon seeing the trainee standing at the front.

'What is this...?'

Raon Zieghart.

The frail-looking boy's left arm was limp like a rag, and holes as big as a fist could be seen on his waist and his thigh.

However, the boy wasn't even groaning despite his severe injuries, and his eyes were as clear as a night lake.

A powerful pressure could be felt, despite his wounded state.

It was a feeling of facing an old swordsman with lots of expertise, through countless accomplishments.

"I'm the fifth training ground's top trainee, Raon Zieghart."
