Dianella used her invisibility power to attack Radmilo while they were in the Guild Union. At that time, Radmilo could sense her movements by the sound and gusts of wind around him. This year, the girl had developed little, so Radmilo could easily guess the direction of her attack. He would also do the same to the smugglers. They wore magic cloaks and never seriously practiced using them. That made it easier for Radmilo to find them. While killing the crow monsters that were blocking his path, he looked…

Radmilo was regarded as an easy opponent by the smugglers. Even if the man was physically strong, he could not fight many people. That was the reason they appeared confidently. Furthermore, they frequently kill hunters who catch them smuggling items from dungeons. "The scorpion is ours!" One of them shouted as he pointed his sword at Radmilo. "Fine," Radmilo raised both of his hands. "But you better give me your share of the rewards. This is my generosity." They seemed annoyed by the offer, especially…

Wakwak was a creature in Philippine mythology. A vampiric bird-like monster, which was active during the night. They hunt humans or even animals for food. They transformed into small birds, similar to crows, during the day, as they were now. This was not Radmilo's first real encounter with that monster. He was well aware of its attack pattern: fly around in circles, chirping loudly, and then attack with lightning speed. The hunters who entered this dungeon initially thought the crows were not…

Each awakener received a unique set of quests. They all received quests on the same day, which was the first of every month. There were no daily quests available. Only monthly quests were available. But still, many awakeners failed to complete the monthly quests. It was because the list of quests provided was extremely difficult and had to be completed within a month. Besides getting experience points, they only could choose one of the following two rewards after completing all the quests: [1. Get rare…

After solving Emma's problem and checking the evacuation site, Keith took Dianella back to the guild office. There was nothing they could do there since Radmilo had not been proven to have anything to do with the dungeon murder case. "I'll be going home after picking up the things I left at the office," Dianella said, stretching her arms. She was so exhausted that it felt like she had run a marathon. Keith nodded. "I want to do something. You can go ahead." He headed to the storeroom where he stored his…

Keith and Dianella were public figures, so they could not ignore people's curious stares. One of them had to clarify Joshua's words. And the person who would do that was Keith, since he made Emma come to the evacuation site. "What Joshua said is true. A newbie awakener can't possibly kill an experienced hunter. I think there's a misunderstanding here," Keith explained, making everyone stare at Emma demandingly. The old woman made a fuss in the wrong place and worst of all, she also wrongly accused…

Now Keith and Dianella were at the evacuation site. Curious people immediately approached them. It turned out that they came only to check the conditions. There was nothing special about the reason for their coming, so some people chose to go to sleep. On the other hand, Radmilo was still with Joshua's friends. They should be asleep by now if only Dianella and Keith had not come. Their presence at the evacuation site made the atmosphere different. "Keith Smith is really different. He does nothing, but…

A few hours ago, Keith read the information about the people who raided the dungeon on Broken Hill. When the hunters of a guild wanted to raid, they had to make a schedule in advance at the Guild Union. It turned out that the hunters who were killed were from an officious guild called Spiny Anteater. One of the hunters who died was Gordan. This was quite surprising to Keith because the Spiny Anteater often boasted about Gordan as a promising hunter. "Any information from the forensic team and Spiny…

At the evacuation site, Radmilo gathered with other people. They could not sleep because they were not used to the atmosphere at the evacuation site. Therefore, they chose to spend time chatting. "I want to ask you something, Radmilo. But I think I'm not close to you and have no right to be curious about your problem." Radmilo, who was rubbing his hands because of the cold, stopped immediately. Those words were given by Joshua, a special blacksmith in Broken Hill. All the hunters who came to the dungeons…

Geovanni took a deep breath when he saw Maido's behavior. He did not want an apology; he wanted an explanation. It seemed that he would gain nothing since Maido apologized to him. Without even having to ask, Geovanni knew that there was no valid explanation for the incident in Australia. Even if he tortured Maido, he still would get nothing. Therefore, the old man chose not to talk about the incident in Australia. He gestured for one of the men in black to hand over his tablet. After getting the tablet,…
