"I can't show weakness here," thought Reve.
He forcefully drove his fingers into his palm. This sensation, different from the pain in his head, brought his mind to reality.
He opened his eyes again as the curse of the secret path disappeared.
Ahead of him was the group of guards. They maintained a stance of caution as they further observed Reve.
"Who are you?!" calmly asked the spokesperson.
Reve struggled to stand up, "Greetings, I'm Kimon."
He waited for some words from the guards, but all they did was look back at him in silence.
A few times, their eyes trailed to the bloodied human that laid close to Reve.
Reve smiled, "I apologize for the barbaric spectacle. But as you see, I'm in urgent need to see your leader."
From the guards' point of view, there was nothing to say.
What comment could they possibly speak?
The man named Kimon appeared with an unstable body that seemed to sway by the mere brush of the wind.
Yet, even while in this state, he wrecked the guard leader of the second vanguard.
No matter how cordial Kimon presented himself as, they could only perceive this situation as it was....a hostile situation!!!
Hence, they brought out their weapons and charged them with energy.
Meanwhile, Reve almost lost his balance when he sighed, "I see….You chose the same path as the others. What a sad life?"
The wind picked him up, and he moved with a great burst of speed.
He had lost count of how many times he had been through this type of situation.
Was it his curse to be burdened by scenarios like this?
As he lunged in the air, he sent forth a force barrier that sneaked up on the guards without them knowing. Their charged-up attacks deactivated as they were left to focus on the transparent force barrier.
Reve increased his speed and lurked behind his force barrier. In the next moment, his figure vanished, and the guards were left to wonder about his whereabouts. Yet, that was not the right time for that!
"Skyslash!" shouted one of the guards.
The other guards positioned themselves behind the guard leader, leading the man alone in the wake of the force barriers.
Suddenly, their senses tingled. They could feel something approaching their behind….and it was fast, insanely fast.
They could barely react in time, erecting an earth wall that would block the incoming invader.
But, it didn't work out well. They were too late as their senses still warned them they were in danger!
The incoming invader had breached their earth wall.
His body frame reflected in their eyes. His normal human hand was postured to form a flying punch. Even before the attack could connect, they could feel the air vibrating in fear.
Surely, this was not something they wanted to land on their bodies.
If this was to hit it, it would be game over. No doubts about that.
But, could they do something against it?
Time was not on their side, and their thought process slowed.
The punch, that was now pulling with it a tempestuous gale, seemed to be unquenchable.
"Stop!"
In this perilous situation, at this dying minute, a loud shout echoed rampantly.
.

"Stop!"
Reve's body subconsciously paused his action when he heard that particular voice.
'Who is that?' he wondered.
It was then he saw another human. This one wore a different outfit than the guards. His brilliant formal shirt complimented his black pants.
His oceanic hair flew with the wind when he spoke again, "I said stop."
However, that was not what bothered Reve.
There was an invasive feeling growing in his body. The words coming out of this man released a pulsation that disrupted all his energy.
He was familiar with this certain disruption phenomenon. However, he wasn't aware that just a mere voice would make his heart pound painfully.
*Dun!* *Dun!!*
As his heart's beat reduced, he found himself gasping for breath, which made him fall to his knees.
It also didn't help the case that he already had enough internal injuries.
'Focus…Calm breaths….Calm breaths,' chanted Reve.
He touched the meek texture of the earth and focused on that only. His entire world disappeared, leaving only him and an abundant rich land that pulsated vibrantly.
Soon, his heartthrob died out, and he was back to normal.
Inwardly thinking, Reve looked up at the blue-haired man, 'Just who is he?'
'.....and what did he do to me'
He had never expected he would meet someone like him here. Someone that appeared even more mysterious than him.
Hence, Reve tried using his [Appraisal] on him.

'Fuckery! What such stats is this?'
Now Reve was innately prideful.
Even while he struggled with Knight Villaime, he was still under the notion that there were no interesting individuals in Starhold's Underworld.
Of course, Knight Villaime was special, but he was not part of the Underworld. Even if he was counted as part of it, he would merely remain a singular exception to Reve.
Yet—the horrors—, this man was goddamn special!
Some of his titles could negate the effect of [Appraisal]. Even his name was obscure.
His race was encrypted as well. This would suggest that he wasn't human or, at least, he wasn't a normal human.
Worst of all, he seemed to have more horrifying details than even [Appraisal] let on.
His aquatic blue eyes stared down at Reve as he went into pensive thoughts.
Reve could sense his body being stripped apart by those pure eyes. It was certainly not a good feeling.
He discerned that this man had [Appraisal] too. It was hard to guess what the rank of his [Appraisal] was.
Furthermore, what had the man found out?!
Whatever he found out would relate to how high-ranked his [Appraisal] was.. So, Reve figured he just had to wait for the man to speak up….
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
