Yi-Han clicked his tongue coldly and turned abruptly, shocking the squires greatly.
It was true! Wardanaz had been deceiving them all along!
"Wardanaz... I trusted you! I respected your honor!"
"How dare those who have never spent a day in Einroguard talk about respect with such arrogance?"
Yi-Han's indifferent response was met with cheers from the students of the White Tiger.
"That's right! Wardanaz!"
"Well said! Talking ...

"Insolent fools," Jijel muttered under her breath.
Her words prompted Yi-Han to look at her with a puzzled expression, as if asking what she meant.
"Insolent? What do you mean by that?"
"You can see it in their eyes. Don't you feel it?"
The astute students of the White Tiger, not being dull-witted, were somewhat aware. They sensed the unfriendly gaze of the newly arrived squires.
There was no need for excessive cordiality toward...

Even in the most hostile of nations, as long as trade is not entirely forbidden, clandestine exchanges between civilian merchants are an inevitable occurrence. For the merchants of the Southern Lands to travel north of the desert, they must cross it unless they use ships, a journey fraught with danger and not easily undertaken without considerable preparation.
The midlands served as secret rest and resupply points, carved out over many years by these m...

"Have you found any traces of Nahan?"
As the question was posed, the once gentle expressions on the faces of the two men vanished simultaneously. It was Nathan Zuckerman who, with an impassive face, opened his mouth to respond.
"Yes. Based on the information relayed by Deputy Commander Wand, we searched the desert areas near three sectors. And today, at a place called 'Entrance of the Sunset,' we found this."
What Nathan pulled out from his...

The conversation that had been droning on in bits and pieces finally subsided after Yuder unknowingly fell asleep. The sight of him struggling to stay awake, his blinking slowing and his speech becoming muddled, was pitiable, yet Kishiar deliberately avoided mentioning it and continued the conversation instead.
It was not helpful at all to mention it. Instead, it was much more effective for his peace of mind to first inform him of matters he would be c...

"Feet, grasp the earth," Yi-Han chanted without hesitation. He could not afford to waste time, as the White Tiger student was rolling helplessly before the Colossal Hungry Ghost.
"Space, be perceived," he invoked the <Spatial Perception> magic. Simple yet powerful in this gloomy dungeon, it amplified the effects of the surrounding rocks and pebbles, potential variables in a real fight.
"Hands, cleave the enemy. Eyes, pierce the darkness," Y...

Yi-Han had a compelling reason for not disclosing to Professor Boladi that he was entering the underground dungeon.
He simply couldn't predict how the professor would react. Among all the faculty, Professor Boladi was notoriously difficult to anticipate, necessitating extra caution.
"Picnic? We're here to conquer the underground dungeon, aren't we?" a clueless student from the White Tiger inquired, failing to grasp the situation.

"What?!"
"We can't lose to Wardanaz! Are you planning to lose in horse riding as well?!"
"But..."
One of the students hesitated.
Rushing out in such a frenzy right now would make it impossible to catch up later.
Horses are living creatures.
They would quickly tire if they ran like that...

"Judging by how fervently you were looking for me, they must have said something significant, right?"
Although he could only refer to his hands as 'they', it wasn't entirely incorrect. However, Yuder couldn't help feeling a bit strange about it.
"They weren't speaking... more like a kind of conversation."
"A conversation? Using your fingers, as you did before?"
Yuder nodded. The inside of his palm, previously enveloped by a white glov...

"Didn't the pharmacist say forcing movement won't help healing?"
Instead of answering, Kishiar said this while supporting the lower part of Yuder's arm. Thanks to him bearing the weight of the heavy splint, Yuder's burden was lessened, but his heart grew heavier.
As Yuder stopped twitching his fingers, Kishiar smoothly returned his arm to its original position.

However, before Yuder could even start his apology, a sharp look from Enon sealed his lips.

Contrary to his friends' misunderstandings, Yi-Han was not as obsessed with studying as they thought. He only focused on what was necessary, studying just what he needed.

"Yes."
Yi-Han revealed that Professor Boladi's lecture venue had changed from the classroom to an underground dungeon.
It was done for more efficient teaching...

Nillia, who had responded with disbelief, was taken aback when she saw Yi-Han's sorrowful eyes.
It's not a joke?

It was only after several minutes had passed, when the cavalrymen had been sent away and the surroundings tidied up, that they could engage in a proper conversation.
"What's this about? So, you mean to say, you had another strange dream and you want to find your Commander?"
"..."
Yuder simply nodded without a word, causing Enon to shout in a voice tinged with embarrassment, his brows furrowed.
"You should have said that right away!"

A consciousness, long dormant, began to resurface slowly.
Yuder opened his eyes in the pitch-black darkness.
'Where is this...'
He was in a space so unknown that he couldn't tell if he was standing, sitting, or even floating in mid-air. It was a place so cold, ominous, and quiet that it was terrifying. Yuder faintly recalled having been in this space before.
Immediately, what reflexively came to mind was the afterimage of white gloves...

Amur had grown up in the harshest lands of the empire. He quickly recovered and rose to his feet.

He realized, even if it was Einrogard, it was unlikely they had captured a griffin. It must have been the horse named Griffin.
It was quite common to name a horse after a fearsome monster...

In this particular crack, the monsters that emerged were not individually as powerful as those that had appeared before. Their primary strength lay in their vast numbers and swift movement.

No matter how powerful the Awakeners were, they were vastly outnumbered by the monsters. There was a limi...
