In the crowded city square of Frostburg, Nox watched as travelers boarded carriages heading towards different parts of the kingdom.
There were also low-level Awakened who were trying to apply for mercenary jobs to escort the carriages because of the magic beasts that terrorized travelers.
All the mercenaries had one thing in common... they all looked suspicious.
'They must be here for the same reason,' Nox thought. Wendy had told him that the Elemental Beast was spotted in a city referred to as the Coastal City.
After thanking the girl, Nox had rushed here in a hurry. Initially, he thought he could simply board a carriage and head to the distant city. However, Wendy had specifically advised him to apply as a mercenary instead.
"Why?" he had asked.
