"We could never look down on the Greyndor Family. It is just that the Family Head is completing the preparations, so as to not waste your time later," the Captain said, lowering his head apologetically.
Even though he was upset at the way the Kiel Family was being treated, he couldn't afford to be disrespectful to the woman.
If the Greyndor Family wanted, they could annihilate the Kiel Family completely. He had to bear with it, even if it was disrespectful.
Anya narrowed her gaze. She opened her cherry lips to speak, but before she could, a lion's roar came from a distance.
Frowning, she looked towards her left, noticing a shadow creature that was made purely from the aura of death, rushing towards her. The creature was shrouded by the dark aura to the point that even its flesh couldn't be seen anymore.
On the back of the giant shadowy creature, a young man was standing, with his arms wrapped around his chest. His eyes were closed while winds brushed against his skin, letting his long hair flutter in the wind.
As the shadowy beast reached near the city, it showed down. The young man on the back of the beast slowly opened his eyes.
He lazily glanced at the Captain of the Kiel Family Guards, who was not worth his attention. The only person here who could catch his attention was Anya Greyndor.
Their families had been competing for a long time after all. Her family was considered as the strongest major family in the Northern Continent, while his family, Rottenheim, was considered a close second.
If she was a disciple of the Left Guardian, then he wasn't behind either. He had been selected by the Right Guardian. Even when it came to strength, it was unclear which of the two was actually stronger.
"Do you have nothing better to do, than to bully these insects?" Leo asked the girl, his gaze extremely cold as he looked down on the girl.
"You talk a lot for someone who always avoids a fight like a coward." Anya shook her head lightly, not even amused by the taunt.
"You are too weak. I don't want to crush you just yet. It is no fun," Leo replied. "Become stronger, so that it would be more fun to crush that skull of yours beneath my feet."
....
"Such a strong scent of death and blood."
In another place, two beautiful Pegasus flew through the beautiful moon-lit sky.
Even though Eren was so high, he could still smell the scent of blood that was striking his senses that had become even stronger with his leveling. Experience tales at m-vl-emp _yr.
The only thing that was stronger than the scent of blood was the scent of death, which gave him a familiar feeling.
It was a similar aura to what he remembered in the memories of the Necromancer Tower that he gained from the Memory Fragment.
In the memory, he was near the Necromancer Tower, being carried away by Devourer. He remembered the Necromancer Tower being surrounded by a similar aura. It was the aura of death.
A few moments later, he caught sight of the wreckage in the distance. It was a place that looked like it used to be a town until a storm destroyed it.
The Pegasus landed in the middle of the down which was painted red in blood.
Eren had killed many people as well. He wasn't scared or disgusted by blood anymore, but this place truly felt evil. He watched the corpses that were ripped in half by the teeth of an unknown monster.
"Isn't this the territory of the Kiel Family? Why are they attacking their own people?" Eren asked the Cardinal.
Even though there were signs of a monster attack, it looked very controlled. He could also feel a powerful presence that clearly belonged to a human. It hadn't been long since that person left this place either.
"This is what happens when you don't have a goddess to guide you. The entire world starts falling apart," the Cardinal stated. "If only they had accepted the teachings of our goddess, they wouldn't have become such beasts."
