"This is outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!"
"He didn't even wait for us to make our move—he walked right into our trap and killed two of our proud Lioncrest students without a second thought!"
The hidden Lioncrest Academy students—who had come to Kent Kingdom under aliases or even forged identities—erupted in anger. They had been lying low, waiting for the perfect moment to ambush Alan. But now, their fury boiled over.
Ignoring Stephen's previous orders to hold back, the Lioncrest students moved ahead of schedule. Before Alan and his team could even reach the ancient ruins, the group had already stormed into the main streets of Kent Kingdom, blocking their path.
"You cursed bastard, Alan! Why won't you just die?!"
Alan had barely turned the corner when a thunderous roar of rage rang out from the side, echoing like a cry from the depths of someone's soul.
Then, without warning, a torrent of blazing fire magic surged toward him like a tidal wave of death.
