[Title: The Wolf has appeared!]

After the Wolf appeared, the world became peaceful. Maybe calling someone a wolf is a compliment? Praise God Kibo!

- I was so scared, I thought I was going to die Once I heard about the news, I stopped drinking with the bar owner and hid behind the counter with him.

- I thought my heart was going to explode lmfao. They were fucking brutal though It was like watching two rival gangs fight each other.

- I thought Heka was a maniac and Kibo was an innocent person but I was completely wrong

- Is this gap moe?

- Why werent you stabbed that night? What a shame

[Title: Its a complete monopoly now Its fucked for transferees]

Monopolies ruin the market.

Wolf? Lion? I dont care whos in charge. I just didnt like the fact that one person was trying to control Nobira.

Now, the Wolf has taken over Nobira like you guys wished. But what do you think will happen next? Will he really take care of the transferees like you guys wished? You naive idiots Kibo taking over Nobira isnt a good situation at all!

- Okay, next Heka.

- Heka(Dead): LOLLL Did you really think that Kibo would take care of you guys?

- Its always these fuckers who never stepped out of their rooms that act like this LOOOL Have you ever even seen Heka? I have. He stabbed all of my party members.

- Stop trying to make Heka seem better than he was, you fucking loudmouth lmfao What did you do that night? If you did nothing then just accept the results lol.

- The person who posted this probably hid in their room while crying that night.

- I bet they ordered food through room service too. Even the inn owner probably thinks that theyre pathetic.

- Seriously lol

[Title: Die Heka!]

Huh? He died? Why did this work?

- Huuuuh?

- Why dont we make Wolf's Night an official holiday in Nobira? Lol.

- I was able to get a glance at Heka when he was at a bar and he looked like a fucking ogre lmfao.

- So who killed Heka?

- How would we know? But according to the rumors, it wasnt Kibo. It wouldnt make sense logically when he was busy during that time killing Doju.

- So Shur killed Heka? How would that make sense?

- It wouldnt. Shur has no chance against Heka.

- Then who could it be? It isnt a transferee, right? Its much more believable that Heka was ganged up on by a group of people than a single transferee.

[Title: A carrier pigeon has arrived, coo coo]

Heres what we know currently about the Wolfs Night.

1. It ended in the overwhelming victory of Kibos faction.

2. Hekas faction has split apart and even ran away from Nobira to avoid being killed by people with grudges.

3. Doju is officially dead.

4. Heka is officially dead.

5. Kibo killed Doju.

6. It still isnt known who killed Heka.

7. There is a rumor that the person who killed Heka is Private or another transferee.

- Private? Han Yeo-myeong?

- Ah! Private!

- Some people are saying that Yu Mira killed Heka.

- Are you kidding me? LMFAO! Saying that Yu Mira killed Heka is like saying that a lion was killed by a house cat.

- Why arent there any witnesses?

- Probably because they killed all of the witnesses too?

- Dont say something so scary

- Either that or Heka died in a separate, completely random location.

[Title: Another story.]

Theres information that Heka was last seen in a bar on 3rd Street.

And apparently, they were picking a fight with somebody? Maybe the person who Heka picked a fight with killed him?

- You dont think Heka killed them instead?

- Look at the way hes hiding shit tsk tsk stop instigating me.

- What the fuck is he saying? LOL

- Apparently after that happening in the bar on 3rd Street, Mira was seen leaving the bar carrying Hekas head and going to Kibo. So its a very credible rumor.Reêad latest novels at novelhall.com

- Then does that mean Yu Mira killed Heka? I didnt think she was someone like that but shes damn scary

[Title: I know the truth.]

I cant believe there are rumors about fucking Yu Mira killing Heka of all people now LMFAO

Fuu I cant give you the specific details because I dont want to reveal my own identity but, Ill at least say this

Why?

- What is their true objective and where did the corpse they were trying to revive come from? It definitely seems worth my time to investigate it.

At that moment, Seol was forcibly assigned an Adventure.

[Adventure Necromancers Secret Ceremony is scheduled.]

[Because this Adventure is a 'Linked Adventure' you cannot choose your next Adventure.]

Huh

Seol wasnt sure whether to be happy that he found a clue or confused that he was forcibly assigned an Adventure.

Seol, without thinking, looked at Karuna. Karunas strong gaze looked back at Seol.

It was almost like he had to go there.

Jamad, standing behind Seol, spoke.

It looks like that lump of steel is interested in that pattern What do you think about going there next?

Karuna glanced at Jamad before turning back to Seol.

Yeah, lets go here next, said Seol.

Thank you, Master.

Along with Karuna being interested, the fact that Seol had no other information to make a different decision made taking on this Adventure the correct decision.

Even so, the awful travel luck Seol got when he arrived in Nobira and being forced to take on this Adventure combined made it a unique situation.

A forced Adventure with bad travel luck, huh thats a bit worrying.

Obviously, Seol was prepared for a variety of problems, but even if he was prepared, he couldnt help being anxious.

I should try to find Chao as fast as I can and leave Nobira, resolved Seol.

* * *

Seol received news from Hamun faster than he expected.

A couple of days before embarking on his new Adventure, Seol received a message from Hamun through Kibo.

Your items are ready, said Kibos subordinate.

Could you notify him that I will go to find those right now?

Of course.

Kibos subordinates were very respectful.

They were respectful normally as well but they were more respectful now after the incident with Heka.

The difference was especially noticeable in Mira. Even though Seol already knew her rambunctious personality, Mira had been nothing but respectful now to the point it was almost too much.

Its a bit uncomfortable

Seol wasnt sure whether they were simply showing respect to him or just flat-out scared.

Obviously though, both were bad.

Seol later found out that Kibo had ordered them to act like that.

Regardless, Seol was currently heading to where he first met Hamun. The cool night air made the quiet streets look even more uninviting.

Ah, have you arrived?

Hamun.

Theres no need to come inside. Your items are complete.

Hamun exited his house, hiding his hands behind his back.

Seol could see two items behind Hamun covered in a thin cloth.

Take this.

Toss.

Seol grabbed the item that Hamun lightly threw.

[You have acquired a 'Helmet of Cool-Headedness'.]

Judging by how the helmets name had changed, Hamun was successful in his repair.

However, Hamun hesitated in handing over the most important item, the Moonlight Sword.

...Hamun?

I will tell you the problems with this sword.

Was there a problem with the Moonlight Sword?

Yes, and more accurately the problem still remains in the sword.

What kind of problem is it?

Hamun looked at the cloth-covered sword with curious eyes.

The sword was made in such a way that I cant decipher the era in which it was made or the techniques and spells used to make it. Not only that, despite the fact that it is a heavily evolved work, many things about it are suppressed.

Suppressed?

Not only does this sword suppress its own strength, it even suppresses the strength of the owner.

...That was possible?

It is something that I also thought was impossible until now. It's just one wall after another

As Hamun spoke more about the Moonlight Sword, doubt started to arise within Seol.

Now that I think about it

Karuna was a summon that Seol acquired in his first Adventure. And as such, it was normal for Karuna to be weaker than the summons he would acquire later in his journey.

However, Seol didnt see any signs of Karuna becoming weaker. In fact, the more Karuna grew, the more he changed.

Karunas stats only soared higher by the day and his expertise in battle was unrivaled.

However, as it was Seols first time playing a Shadow Summoner, he wasnt sure if this was just information that he lacked or if Karuna really was unique.

And if by chance Karuna truly was unique, there was no way that the Moonlight Sword Karuna held very dear would only be a rare quality item.

That was the doubt that started to grow within him.

Hamun continued, holding the sword in both hands.

I was able to remove many spells, but there are many more incomparable spells left on it. Im curious as to what the sword would look like when it has been stripped of all of its spells.

And then, something that Seol didnt expect happened.

Hamun held the sword tightly and said

Therefore I cannot hand you the sword like this.
