We entered Navencore and saw the moment of our victory. People immediately flocked to the main road to see us, to see their savior. They cheered with joy and some even cried. There were also some players among the crowd. Thankfully, my helmet covered my face and I hid well within Atalancia and Savanh's soldiers.

Navencore Tandor Kingdom

Just like what I watched on promotional trailer, Navencore was truly the heart of Heallance. The city was beautiful and majestic. The buildings and the massive castle that could be seen almost atop of the mountain. Truly, it was the sight that couldn't be missed for fantasy medieval lovers. No wonder it was one of the most visited place in Heallance.

Suddenly, I saw several people with luxury clothes at the distance. They were marching with an army of knights behind them. They approached and stopped in front of us. Then they told us we were invited to have an audience with the King and Queen. After that, the knights divided and stood on the right and the left side of the road to make a way for us. Thus, we entered the Castle of Tandor.

Just like what I heard. The King and Queen were twins who still in their teens, twelve to be exact.

They didn't wear crowns on their head. The King boy had short blonde hair, deep blue eyes, and he was wearing white long-sleeved clothes with black shoulder-strap short pants. The Queen girl had shoulder-length blonde hair, emerald eyes, and she was wearing white one-piece clothes with black bow on the neck. Their pale skin made them looked like a pair of dolls that came alive.

Regardless, people would think they were normal kids even though they were the King and Queen of Tandor. Because of that fact, I had to respect them and behaved accordingly. However, suddenly, the King boy jumped down from his throne and ran toward me.

"You're the one who opened the portal and summoned Savanh and Atalancia?" The King boy asked with shining eyes. I could see the Queen girl was behind him, looking at me shyly.

I smiled and bowed my head. "Yes, Your Majesty."

"That's so cool!" His mouth was wide open in admiration. "Please just call me Henry!"

Suddenly an old man beside the throne spoke, "Your Majesty, that isn't possible."

I saw Hagwim's eyes were twitching while he occasionally looked at me, as if he was about to say something. Meanwhile, Feleon and Neptos were silent and kept listening.

"You are the King of Tandor and you must beha-"

But before he even finished his sentence, Henry cut him, "Shut up Evan!"

The Throne room became silent and the old guy, Evan, was sighing.

"Oh yeah, this is my sister Tiana." Henry looked at his sister who hid behind him with red cheeks.

"Forgive me for interrupting, Your Majesty." Hagwim suddenly spoke and bowed. "We are all tired from the war, and we have to prepare for the next attack as well. If possible, we really want to get rest. Is there something important that you want to say to us?"

Henry face immediately turned sad. "Ah right... We still can't enjoy yet until we completely eradicate those monsters." He sighed and looked at me. "I just want to say thank you for saving our Kingdom from destruction. We owe our lives to you."

He bowed and his sister followed.

Then he turned toward Evan. "Evan, prepare rooms for Savanh and Atalancia. Also, exclusive VVVVVIP Room for uhh..." He turned his head toward me again and asked, "What's your name?"

"Zeroth..."

"Yes, for our Hero who saved us all, Zeroth!"

You have earned 'Hero of Tandor' tittle!

• • •

Next day.

I went around the city alone. Normally, Mirage would knock my door and ask me about what I would do with excited face. However, since she could still be tired from the war, she didn't do it today. I also didn't want to disturb her, so I walked alone to see if there were some stuff I could buy. I planned to buy her some food or something to make her happy. However, everywhere I went, the people seemed tense and I saw some of them prepared their gears.

The last battle made them realized the Dark Army could attack at any moment, and they needed to be ready for the worst to come. Moreover, a lot of players were here as well. It was probably because of the rumor that we won the war. They flocked here to gain benefit of the event.

Also, there was one more thing that I couldn't expect. A player that I met a long time ago was right in front of me.

Short pink haired bunny girl with a fairy on her shoulder. Looking at the fairy made me think of Lumi. I didn't know where she went, but I couldn't care less.

(Meanwhile, Lumi was taking care of the Garden in Dalgor.)

The bunny girl looked at me and, slowly, her eyes were wide open. Then she pointed her index finger toward me.

"You're an Aphu!" Her eyes shined. "I've never seen a player with Aphu Character!"

I squinted my eyes and looked at her. 'It seems she doesn't remember me.'

Of course, since she probably had real life and we met just once for a short amount of time. She definitely couldn't remember me at all. Unlike me who had already given up about real life. I remembered very well everything in this world. Moreover, I also wrote them down on my journal which sometimes I reread whenever I wanted to.

"You're the one from before. Where's the Angel girl?"

My eyes widened as she not only remembered me, but also Mirage as well. "You remember us?"

"Of course!" She smiled. And then her eyes shined. "Can I meet her?"

Somehow, I immediately changed the topic. "Shouldn't you be worried more about the Dark Army?"

"Well yeah. You know about the meteor yesterday?"

I didn't know why she suddenly mentioned that. I saw her smiling smugly and opened her mouth again.

"I was the one who destroyed it! Teehee..."

A powerful meteor that even Neptos couldn't destroy, and she blatantly said she was the one who did it. However, it was indeed strange since something did hit the meteor, and the whole situation that couldn't be described by words became completely made sense with her claim.

I used Astral Eyes and looked at her status window.

Bonnie Race Bunny (Beast) Job (Class) Stardust Mage Hobby None Stats HP 9565/9565 MP 10864/10864 STR 215 VIT 184 DEX 312 AGI 363 INT 404 WIS 219

'What is this messy stats!?' I was dumbfounded.

However, I was also impressed since her INT already reached 400 even though her race was Beast. I wondered how she could raise her INT higher than her main Bunny stats, DEX and AGI. It could be because of her Job 'Stardust Mage'. It sounded like it was a rare Job, so I looked at her skill window and my eyes were wide open as I saw several unbelievable spells.

'A swift mage with high INT and destructive spells.' I thought. 'She will definitely be annoying to go against with.'

"Please let me meet her once!" She bowed her head to me and I could see the fairy did it as well.

'It seems I can't avoid this.' I sighed. 'I don't want to be involved with players, but...'

The sun was almost set and I was done walking around, so it wouldn't be hurt to make her meet Mirage. Even though I didn't want this, perhaps it was a good thing. Perhaps, she could befriend her.

And so I made an exception.

"Sure. But no recording or screenshot." I said.

"Uhhhh..." She rolled her eyes and I could see she would do it.

"Then goodbye."

"Wait! I don't even know how to do that! I don't even have a camera!"

I squinted my eyes and observed her expression. It seemed she didn't lie.

"Alright. But I'll be watching you."

"Don't worry! I promise!" She strangely saluted at me.

"Fine... Follow me..." I turned around and walked away.

"How can I screenshot without camera?" She muttered to herself as she followed me.

"Miss Bonnie, what is a camera?" The fairy asked.

'I can hear you, yknow...' I said on my mind.

And so we walked toward the castle. I could hear she was talking with the fairy about the city. I agreed that Navencore was indeed beautiful. Once the war was over, I wanted to explore the town with Mirage, especially walking together at night. I smiled as I imagined it, and it also warmed my heart. It felt nice and sweet.

As we passed the castle gate and entered the castle, Bonnie and the fairy looked surprised. They became quiet all of sudden.

Once we were in front of Mirage's room, I began to knock.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Mirage, it's me Zeroth..."

However, there was no answer.

We waited for a few minutes and I knocked the door again.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Mirage, are you awake?"

Still, there was no answer, so I decided to open the door and expected her to be sleeping on her bed. However, she wasn't in the room.

I looked around and knocked the bathroom door.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Mirage?"

No answer.

I began to worry and opened the door. Yet, no one inside the bathroom.

I closed the door and looked at the bunny girl, "It seems like she is going out somewhere."

"I see..." She looked down. "Can I add her as friend?"

"She is an NPC." I answered.

Hearing my answer, she looked disappointed.

"Well, you can meet her once we march toward north later. You're joining the war, right?"

"Ohhhh right! We fight those Dark Army! I will definitely join!" She put her fists in front of her chest.

"Then, see you again later..." I faintly smiled.

"unh!" She nodded.

Once we got out the room, I immediately excused myself and walked away since I got worried. While I was walking, I called Hagwim and asked if he saw Mirage.

‒ Hello, laddie. Anything I can help with?

"Did you see Mirage, by any chance?"

‒ Lady Mirage? I haven't seen her since yesterday. Did you guys get separated?

"Ah yeah... Kind of..."

‒ Ahh alright. I will call you if I see her.

"Thanks..."

I began to ask Feleon and Neptos as well, but no dice. I kept searching here and there and waiting until midnight. Then I decided to look into her room again. However, she wasn't there.

I waited for her in her room until morning, yet I still couldn't see her figure at all.

My chest tightened and my mind began to overthink. I became restless.

It was the first time she was gone. She was always being with me no matter what happened. She always came to me and looked for me everyday.

I got worried and scared.

I looked at the party window and her status was still there. For a moment, I sighed in relieve. I was glad that, at least, she was still alive. However, I couldn't help but worry about where she was. Then I tried Soul Connect multiple times in several places. Unfortunately, I couldn't reach her at all.

Then I used portal to go to every places we had ever gone to. From Eldan, Belgram's Workshop, Ruins of New Zoria, Orbania, Dalgor, Savanh, Atalancia, until back again to Navencore.

Yet, I couldn't find her at all.

As I reached a wall, I started to think about it calmly. Then I remembered what Lumi had taught me. I tried to think about Mirage and began to create a portal to her.

I chanted the spell and I could see a ball of light was created.

'Please be working, please be working, please be working...' I prayed.

However, the light faded and the portal couldn't be made.

Frustrated, I did it multiple times until my mana completely depleted. Still, it was pointless.

I sat on my bed in silence. I could hardly breathe, and my mind was filled with her face, her kindness, her smile. Everything about her.

As the sky darkened, I had decided. I checked everything and began to leave Navencore.

'I have a hunch, but I hope I'm not too late.' I thought as I walked toward north alone.

• • •

Meanwhile, Hagwim and Feleon saw Zeroth leaving by himself at night. They immediately told Neptos and discussed about the situation.

Feleon folded his arms, "I don't know why he is suddenly going alone like that. Is there any problem he said to both of you?"

"He didn't say anything important..." Neptos answered.

"The only thing he asked was about Lady Mirage's whereabouts..." Hagwim replied.

"Mirage? Oh isn't she the one who always be with Zeroth? Belgram's daughter?" Neptos asked.

"Yes." Hagwim nodded.

"For him to be like this during important war. Isn't the fate of Heallance way more important than her whereabouts?" Neptos bluntly asked.

"Indeed. In this dire moment, we must act what's necessary and choose what's more important." Feleon agreed.

However, hearing those two, Hagwim took a deep sigh. "You two are very wrong. I didn't expect for both of you to say that." He stopped for a moment as he looked at both of them. They turned their gaze toward him and looked confused.

"You know... Whenever I see Zeroth, his eyes feel distant and...sad. It feels like he carries unbearable burdens with him. However, whenever he is with Lady Mirage, his eyes...his eyes are shining and I can see his face lit up. She is his everything. She is his happiness. Both of you know this very feeling, yes?"

They were silent for a moment, and then Hagwim continued, "He is going to north...going north alone without telling anything."

"Don't tell me..." Neptos eyes widened.

Their face became serious as they realized something.

And so, they immediately gathered their army and decided to march to the north as well.

• • •

Xalvack Forest

The path to Crystal Crater.

When I entered the forest, the cubic was pulsating nonstop. The deeper I went, the faster the cubic was vibrating. I stopped as I saw a gorge with two massive pillars on each side which looked like some kind of gateway. The cubic was beating like a heartbeat as I was right in front of the gate.

I stopped for a moment and thought about Mirage. When I was about to move my feet, I suddenly heard a familiar voice behind me.

"Zeroth laddie!"

I turned my head and saw Hagwim. Behind him, Savanh and Atalancia were marching.

Hagwim stopped in front of me and asked, "What are you doing by yourself, laddie!?"

I looked down and somehow felt guilty. "Sorry..."

"Did you find her? Did you find Lady Mirage?" Hagwim asked again.

I shook my head. "Not yet."

I looked up and saw Hagwim with a faint smile. "Listen, laddie. You're not alone. We're here to help you too."

I didn't know why I immediately felt emotional. I could cry but I didn't want to show my feelings.

"Thanks..." I smiled as I held my tears.

Hagwim patted my shoulder, "Let's go find her. I hope we're not too late."

"Yeah..." I nodded.

Thus, we passed the gateway and entered the gorge. As we marched toward north, I noticed the two pillars were sending some kind of aura which was pulsating like a heartbeat and synching with my cubic. However, I didn't really care that much and kept walking forward.

• • •

A few hours later, at the same place.

Vallas and Ylvaark, Juvaldo and Ghaldaran were meeting with Nel'Thas, Alkronia and Karmia. They all looked happy as Human Kingdoms were still alive and strong together. Once they had done sharing information, they began to move forward.

Strangely, they noticed several track of footsteps which indicating there was another army that went north not a long time ago. However, their track were cut off. As if they were gone. Some were speculating they were going through a portal or something. Nonetheless, their priority was the Dark Army. They kept marching forward until they went out of the gorge and arrived at Crystal Crater.

Not long they entered the place, they found thousands of Dark Army and several strange beasts were marching toward them.

Both sides immediately stopped.

All Human Rulers went front and faced their army.

"The days of being manipulated and oppressed will be over." Randolph said. "Today we will claim victory and be freed from darkness!"

"RAISE YOUR HEAD AND FACE OUR FEAR TOGETHER!" Irelia shouted.

"FOR HEALLANCE!" The rulers shouted in unison.

With that, everyone shouted as they rushed toward the Dark Army.

It was the biggest war that ever happened in Heallance. There were even reporters from several TV stations, and a lot of players were livestreaming it as well. It was the moment when billions of people in every part of the worlds were watching.

People were astonished, especially toward Vallas and Nel'Thas. They even beat the strange beasts as if they were just normal mobs. Within hours, they moved forward and reached enemy's rear easily. Thus, they found the Dark Army's Leader.

Dark-skinned Aphu with red and violet eyes, his long silver hair was adorned by black circlet, and he was wearing black armor with violet lines. On his right hand, he held crimson sword which emitted dark violet aura.

"Atronos!?" Vallas eyes widened in disbelief.

"Well, look at that..." Atronos smiled. "Hello old friend..."

"I didn't expect the one who was once a Hero is now a traitor. Are all Aphi evil now? You're all a bunch of sick monsters who lust over that damned Demon." Nel'Thas ranted.

"Don't talk as if you understand my kin's feelings." Atronos face became sour.

"Then tell me why are you doing all of this?" Nel'Thas asked again.

"You wouldn't understand..." Atronos answered.

"Pfft... So be it then..." Nel'Thas scoffed. "You'll die!"

With that, Nel'Thas began to cast thunder toward him. However, Atronos swung his sword and easily neutralized it. He looked to the right and Vallas was already threw his fist toward him. Thus, the battle had begun.

Vallas and Nel'Thas fought Atronos for an hour, supported by Guild Masters and Rulers of Human Kingdoms. Atronos had several tricks which made Vallas and Nel'Thas backed off multiple times. Regardless, the boss fight was running smoothly and Atronos's HP was slowly going down to 20%.

Once Atronos was in critical condition, he began to retreat and the Dark Army covered his escape. He stopped and stood in the middle of magic circle. It seemed like he was doing some kind of ritual with silver ring and hazel wand on his hands. At that moment, Atronos became unguarded. Seeing that, the players who were idle and waiting for this moment began to move as they wanted all the benefits and credits for themselves.

When they rushed toward Atronos, Nel'Thas shouted, "DON'T GO NEAR HIM!"

It was too late. They were all immediately killed in an instant by dark AoE magic which appeared from the magic circle.

With those players as sacrifice, the ritual was complete.

Atronos grinned creepily.

• • •

A barren land which had nothing but bones and the sky was strangely dark reddish color. Everyone seemed uncomfortable, especially Hagwim, Feleon and Neptos. Nonetheless, we kept marching until the scenery immediately changed into some kind of dark room with huge throne in it.

It was the same place that I had seen beyond the portal I made in Atalancia.

"Ah welcome!" Uruzak greeted. "I wholeheartedly apologize, but Master Beleth is busy right now."

I could see he was fighting someone in the distance near the huge throne. The man was wearing black clothes and using strange abilities without mana. I tried to identify him without Astral Eyes.

Origin Zodiac Killer

"Well well well, let's have some fun until Master is done dealing with him."

Uruzak suddenly summoned hundreds, no, thousands of undead from the ground. And so the battle couldn't be avoided.

"URUZAK!" I shouted. "WHERE IS MIRAGE!?"

He just looked at me. Since he didn't have a face, I couldn't see what kind of expression he had at the moment. After a moment of silence, he began to open his jaw.

"Why don't you ask Master Beleth later...?"

My eyes widened and my heart stopped beating for a moment. Somehow, I imagined him grinning.

"YOU BASTARD!"

I threw my sword toward him but he easily evaded.

"KUHAHAHAHAHAH!!!" He laughed.

I leaped and punched him.

POW!

My fist stopped as barrier was formed in front of his face. Uruzak then stretched his hand and his palm blasted mana toward me.

BOOM!

I was thrown back and landed safely. I called my sword back and began to attack him relentlessly. My mind was clouded by anger and I swung my sword without thinking. Uruzak wasn't even serious, he just evaded and parried all my attacks without hit me back even once.

Until a moment later, I saw Beleth pierced his hand through the man in black's chest. Then he threw his body away.

"Marfakh solgovhir..."

(Useless subject...)

It was then, Beleth looked at me and approached me. He stopped about five meters in front of me and I could see his glowing eyes were gazing me. However, I wasn't the same as before. I could stand his dominating aura. As I was about to move my feet, I heard his demonic voice.

"Are you looking for this...?" He asked as he threw something toward me.

I looked down and saw a silver ring. Silver ring with emerald on it. The same ring I was wearing. The same ring Mirage was wearing. I immediately opened the party window. However, Mirage was not in it. Only my name remained.

My knees fell on the ground and my hand slowly reached it.

I picked the ring and asked, "Where is she?"

Only silence was heard. They didn't answer.

My chest tightened and my mind became empty. It felt like, the time had stopped and everything was muted. After a long time of silence, my vision blackened and I fell.

"Soul Connect..." I muttered.

As I lost my consciousness, I could hear Uruzak's voice faded away.

"Isn't it ironic? An Aphu who has the best mental resistance is now in a mental breakdown. KHUHAHAhahahahahahaha........................"

• • •

Within the darkness, Mirage's memories were showing up.

It started when she met Zeroth for the first time. She was lonely and scared. She gave the ring emotionlessly. Thinking that was a reward for her prince in shining armor who just saved her from a nightmare.

During the first night within the inn, she couldn't sleep well. She wondered and was thinking about Zeroth all night. She was also still terrified of the unknown world. So at midnight, she often sneaked into Zeroth room and she laid down beside him for a moment. Once she calmed down, she went back to her room.

During the time when Zeroth fought Dimensional Envoy, Mirage cried. She stayed with him and said that she didn't want him to leave her alone. Her anxiety made her terrified about what happened to him. She would be alone again if he was gone, but then she was really happy once Zeroth woke up.

Then the memory shifted when Mirage and Zeroth did Soul Connect for the first time. She saw Zeroth's whole life. Terrified and confused about the unknown world, and the truth about her reality of existence. She avoided him and went out together with Lena and Balar to have fun and forget about everything. Still, she couldn't get rid of the memories she just saw. She watched Zeroth suffered and struggled to live in the real world. She cried every night.

Once again, the memory shifted to when Zeroth was unconscious after torturing the player killer party. Mirage called Zeroth multiple times to wake up, and she carried and piggybacking him to the inn. She begged him to woke up as she was healing him. Then she cried and told Zeroth to come back. She hoped that he would open his eyes again so she stayed by his side the whole time. She cried until she fell asleep.

The memories go on, showing Zeroth about the other sides of Mirage. The side when she was blushing, talking to herself as she confused about her feelings toward Zeroth. The side of her weakness, looking strong and calm outside yet fragile and emotional inside.

Once everything was showed, Zeroth's eyes widened as he saw Mirage's figure in the darkness. The world was faster within their mind, as if time was stopped. They looked at each other for a while. Then, Zeroth slowly approached Mirage.

He was happy for a moment. So many things he wanted to talk about. However, unlike heroes, NPC didn't have the blessing. Even if a healer tried to use resurrection skill, the NPC couldn't be able to be awaken. As Zeroth was shocked and depressed about that reality, Mirage faintly smiled and tried to console him by singing.

"Hey, don't cry. I am here be with you...

I know...it's hard. Don't force...yourself again.

Hey, believe...everything will be fine.

I know...someday...you'll find out what life means to be..."

My tears began to flow, and I was holding her hands.

"Even though...everything falls apart...

I know you're strong on your own way.

Even though...the world makes you blue...

I know you will put your smile again..."

Though she tried to look strong, I could see Mirage was hiding her weakness inside. She eventually sobbing, and I heard her trying to hold her runny nose. My tears was flowing again.

"Just gaze upon the starry night...

You will be able to see...that I'm always watching over you...oh...

Just gaze upon the blue sky... hic...

You will understand that your happiness is hiding...around you all this time..."

She looked at me with her glassy eyes.

"Zeroth..."

The way she called me made my heart ached.

"Hic... These memories... They are not mine... Hic... Belgram and Melleth... They're not even my parents... It's someone else's...someone else owned them." Mirage forced a smile. Even though it was a pretty one, but her eyes were glittering in sorrow. "After all this time, we're chasing an illusion. And I..."

I saw her tears was rolling on her cheeks as her eyes closed.

"What am I? Hic... I have nobody... I have nothing..."

Seeing her weeping and devastated made my heart ached even more. Gently, I lifted her chin up.

"I told you, didn't I?" I could felt my warm tears flowing out my eyes. "You're real. The memories from when you met me, and until now... Right at this moment... They're yours. You're here with me... You're real... You have me, Mirage... You are not alone... I'm... I'm here with you..."

Her tears were flowing even more as she bawled.

"Huwaaaa.... I don't wanna die...hic..." She cried. "I still wanna be with you... I wanna know more about you... I wanna cook more delicious foods for you... I wanna be with you...Please...hic... I wanna make more memories with you..."

"Mirage... Hic..."

"Zeroth, please tell me you'll be fine alone..."

"Yeah...hic...I will be fine... Please don't worry..."

"Please tell me you won't be depressed anymore..."

"Yeah... Hic... I won't..."

We hugged each other tightly and cried. We cried till our tears no longer dripping.

"Zeroth..." She released her hug and then touched my cheeks with both of her hands. "Thank you for everything... I hope you can live up to your name... Your real name..."

I saw her glassy eyes flowing her tears again. I gently wiped them.

"I love you..." She softly said it with a smile. "I love you so much..."

As I hugged her tightly again, slowly, she was fading and disappeared from existence. Thus, at that moment, we were embracing our last moment and farewell.

I stood motionlessly within the silent darkness. I lightly scoffed, then I laughed. I kneeled down and screamed her name. I cried as my heart hurt so much.

Crystal Crater

The ritual was done, and the surrounding world was matching with the other dimension. Vallas party, players, and the force of human kingdoms were surprised once they saw the Beast and Fishmen army sudden appearance around them. And they were petrified when they saw Beleth and Uruzak with their army of undead behind Atronos. Furthermore, the next scene would be unforgettable for all of them.

In front of Atronos, something was kneeling down. It was a tall being with hooded black armor and unique ribs on the chest part. It held a meter long black needle-like sword on its right hand. Under the hood, it showed a flat white face.

The very being was the rumored Phantom with faceless face.

Atronos was surpised when he saw the Phantom. It was slowly standing up and turned its head toward him.

"Y-You!" Atronos was smiling but his voice was shaken when the Phantom approached him. "Y-You shall obey me!"

The Phantom instantly choked and stabbed him.

STAB!

Atronos eyes widened. He then struggled and writhing. He tried to stab the Phantom with his sword multiple times. Unfortunately, his sword couldn't even pierce its armor. So he stabbed the Phantom's face instead. He grinned as his sword went through behind its head.

However, it was pointless. The Phantom didn't even feel hurt and stayed still. Moreover, Atronos' strength was harshly weakened instead. His eyes widened even more and he kept struggling. Alas, he couldn't even break the Phantom's grip and it stabbed him multiple times without mercy.

STAB!

Once his HP hit zero, his hands released the Phantom's arm which choked him, and his body was no longer moving. Regardless, the Phantom still thrust its sword again and again. Blood splattered and his insides came out each time the Phantom stabbed.

Even though some people often killed monsters and human beings in this game, the graphic scene made everyone silent as they were very uncomfortable. Some closed their eyes, some turned their gaze, some felt nauseous, and some even vomited. Because it was also live all around the world, some channels stopped and shifted the screen to ads instead. Still, most of them recorded the very scene they just witnessed.

A moment later, the Phantom just threw him sideway as if he was insignificant thing.

Seeing the Phantom directly, some players became noisy as they were shocked in disbelief. They remembered some bards in town were singing about the Phantom. And they realized it wasn't just a rumor. Even its behavior was described perfectly within the lyrics.

"It's the Faceless Phantom!" They shouted.

The Phantom turned its head toward Beleth and Uruzak. They looked at each other for a moment.

Everyone was tense as if it was the cinematic scene of Dark Army event.

And then, the Phantom walked toward them as its right hand gripped tightly on its sword.
