Vic withdrew his gaze from the slightly harsh sunlight and concentrated on listening to the conversation of the two strangers at the next table.
"What's going on here? Why is it so chaotic?"
"Don't you know? A tough guy came here yesterday."
"How tough?"
"More than a dozen Holy Sound Players are after him, what do you think?"
"...That's indeed impressive, and then?"
"Then a third of them got killed right away, but they couldn't catch him; he escaped."
"Hiss... That exaggerated? Where did he come from?"
"Where else could he come from? Haven't you heard what happened recently with the Holy Sound?"
Vic pulled his attention back, not continuing to listen.
Because he didn't have the time for gossip, he was more concerned about other things at the moment.
Such as... those guys who are always chasing him.
Vic narrowed his eyes slightly, looking to find his target among the diverse people coming and going in the Boundary Land.
But he couldn't find it.
