บท 249: Crimson Mercenary

The leader of the Crimson Mercenary squad was called Valen. He has long red hair with a single long scar on his cheek that extends all the way to his neck.

Holding a knife between his hands, Valen led his squad and entered the Ashen Ember with cruelty in their eyes.

Their goal for today was pretty simple.

Kill at least three members of the Ironclad Mercenary and then retreat.

He did not care about the beast that Cedric had commissioned. A measly 2000 Gold Coin reward was not worth the whole squad's effort.

The irreconcilable grudge he had toward the Ironclad Mercenary was deep rooted and originated back when he was still a member of the famous squad.

Back then, he was still young and full of ambitions. Due to some conflict, he was forced to leave the Ironclad and started his own squad, making it into one of the famous squads in Blazing Expanse just like the Ironclad.
