章 55: Chapter 54- Bond?

The territory of the Steelhound was known as Chainedvale. It is a very…unique name that the first patriarch of the Steelhound family decided on.

Alex reached Chainedvale by afternoon, aided by the lack of monsters along the route and the leniency at the checkpoints. With two major approvals in hand, he passed through without a thorough inspection.
