There was another income.

It was a windfall.

The hero picked up the pieces rolling under his feet.

Perhaps feeling regretful, even in death, the owner couldnt let go of it.

He muttered as he pried off the stuck fingers.

So now there are seven.

Meanwhile, the overwhelming dance of the hero left the 26th exploration team in awe.

They had acknowledged his strength up to the 25th level.

However, in this battle, the heros rampage among the other exploration teams far surpassed the dignity of Captain Zeon.

Kasim.

Damn, the atmosphere is getting tense.

Where did such a monster come from? It looks like it easily fits into the black grade.

Damn, hes so charismatic.

Brother!

A scene of massacre.

A bloody spectacle.

Transcendent power.

These were what the men of Canis loved and followed more than anything.

In the center of it all, the hero stood with an indifferent face, eliciting respect rather than fear.

Thanks to that mans strength, they barely survived at the threshold of death.

Some already had expressions of loyalty.

Of course, the hero was avoiding eye contact and trying to evade somehow.

But there was one person who seemed uncomfortable and tense.

It was Captain Zeon of the 26th exploration team.

He hesitated greatly before finally approaching the hero, gripping the hilt of his sword tightly.

Kasim.

What?

If you return, I will definitely inform the boss about your exploits so that you wont be disappointed. So, the piece in your hand.

Please hand it over.

Before Zeon could finish his sentence, the hero willingly handed over the piece.

Here, take it.

An act of trust.

Zeon, who had been unable to stop his dreadful imagination since earlier, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank you.

In fact, even if he wanted to kill everyone here and take all seven pieces, no one could have stopped him.

There wouldnt even be any repercussions.

This was the deep depths of the demonic realm, and there were many reasons for the complete annihilation of the exploration teams besides internal conflicts.

Thank goodness.

With trembling hands, Zeon merged the piece the hero handed him with his own.

At the same time, his gaze towards the hero softened significantly.

Hes a rare man with a sense of trust even in Canis. I must propose him for scouting when we return.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

Perhaps he could become the card to end the tiresome competition between the three organizations.

Kasim. Im really looking forward to continuing our close friendship in the future.

Whats this criminal guy saying?

At Larzes silent sneer, the hero frowned.

But even that fierce gesture now only made Zeon see him as more of a man.

Alright, alright. Attention!

With a smile on his face, Zeon looked around at his team members and raised the doubled piece high.

By this, it seems our exploration team has secured first place. The summit is within reach.

In response to Zeons declaration, the team members cheered in unison.

It was natural, considering they already had all seven pieces.

This meant they didnt need to continue this dangerous demonic realm exploration for long.

Now, they just needed to head to the rendezvous point first and wait for other exploration teams to arrive.

The Black Arrows exploration team numbered over thirty.

Even if they captured a few pieces, they could easily bring back at least three.

Of course, the hero was more than satisfied.

I might delay the encounter with Larze a bit. Maybe we could meet near the gathering point, around sector 40.

Originally, it was time to join forces with Larze.

The initial point of contact was sector 30.

It would take a few more days to reach there.

However, unexpectedly, the demonic realm had opened up easily, so he was thinking of suggesting for Larze helping stabilize sector 1 of the demonic realm before joining.

Its not dangerous enough yet to require Larze. If she leaves, there will be casualties even if the enemies are few. Its only natural for me to bear the burden from this side.

Feeling the mental burden of bringing Larze out of the urgent situation in sector 1, the heros mind became considerably more relieved.

Alright, lets head straight to the rendezvous point from now on.

Oooh!

We plan to avoid conflicts as much as possible and gather nearby allied exploration teams for protection. You can go a little more comfortably.

Wooo!

Thank you for all your hard work. When we return to Canis, the boss will surely give a substantial reward.

Uwaaa!

Dizziness, vomiting, chills, and so on.

If left untreated, it would lead to confusion, hysteria, mutation, and ultimately death.

Therefore, periodic cleansing operations were necessary to discharge residual demonic energy from the body, and this was by no means an easy task to do while laughing and chatting.

Thats why silence fell over the campsite.

Im rather fortunate, actually.

Ugh-

Of course, he was diligent in the cleansing as well.

The hero cleansed his body with magic, checking his plan once again.

The plan was very simple.

Subdue Zeon, steal the fragments, then flee.

There was no need to wake the exploration members to fight against this number.

Dealing with this amount was both bothersome and unnecessary since the demonic energy would engulf them even without his intervention.

The remaining three fragments would be found after joining forces with Larze and heading towards route 43.

It might take a bit of a detour, but there was plenty of time.

The 26th exploration team was undoubtedly leading among the exploration teams, and the rest were far behind to catch up.

By the time the trailing players collected all the fragments and reached 43, he would already be carrying the treasure outside the magic realm.

Alright, theres no need to wait any longer.

The hero stood up abruptly.

His current position was in the center of the campsite.

Zeons tent was right in front of him.

It would be a breeze to steal the fragments and escape.

Mmm-

Accessing Key of Valber.

It was the moment when the hero, drew out the dagger Eternal Silence, Galot, one of the 17th of the weapons.

Sssssshhh-

Sharp, piercing noises struck his ears.

It was the outskirts of the campsite.

Enemy attack! Enemy attack!

All the lights in the campsite turned on, and armed exploration members rushed outwards, gathering in less than 30 seconds.

They looked around with grim eyes until they spotted the hero standing awkwardly with the dagger.

And then, their expressions of suspicion turned into relief.

Oh, Kasim! Your instincts are sharp as always.

Did you sense something suspicious?

Did you anticipate the attack in advance?

Whether it was an assassination or theft of the fragments, it was right to resolve and settle this situation.

The hero released the explosively gathered magic and.

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuummm-

Instead, he spread it in all directions.

It was immediately after he detected dozens of presences rapidly approaching the campsite.

His eyes narrowed.

Human?

No, he quickly corrected himself.

Demons.

It seemed they would penetrate into the campsite in a matter of seconds.

And it wasnt the guerrilla style they had been accustomed to, but rather a full-fledged assault.

They exceeded fifty, and above all, the momentum of the leader of the advancing group was extraordinary.

Much stronger than the necromancer lieutenant encountered in the factory.

There was no doubt it was an elite force of the Demonic Church.

Even concealed in his current state, it wouldnt be easy to deal with them.

Of all times, why now?

The hero sighed and withdrew Galot, taking out Umbra again.

.

.

.

There was no need to wait any longer.

Whoosh-

As if a fierce wind blew, all the fires in the campsite extinguished instantly.

Not only the campfires and torches but also the magical lights.

Except for the intermittent moonlight piercing through the demonic clouds, there was no light left in the campsite.

Darkness.

Due to the demonic energy, even the night vision of the experienced members momentarily faltered.

Tadadadak-

Dozens of figures in masks surrounded them one after another.

The fluttering of nocturnal robes loudly beat against their ears, and the late wind cooled the sweat on the exploration members faces.

It was evident at a glance.

The Demonic Churchs elites.

There was nothing more to say.

The hero grasped Umbrar tightly and bent his knees to charge forward.

Ive come to propose a deal.
