Meanwhile-- On top of a mountain next to Jura City
"...Hey partner, Do you see that? Isn't that one of the noisy bastards called Shadow Swords? It seems that your new friends are in for some trouble." Hulak pointed towards the Jura City Portal with a laugh.
At that moment, a person wearing tattered black clothes and his body covered in wounds and fractures had walked out. It could be said that whoever did this to him had barely left him alive on purpose.
The Wyvern gave him a sidelong glance, "You're also in the same trouble with the same people, partner. The difference is that my *new friends* have hope of victory."
"Hey, that was uncalled for!" Hulak got angry for a moment, but then shrugged and looked back towards the portal again, "...Alright you have a point."
"Good that you've at least realized that fact. I would have lost hope in you if you thought otherwise." The wyvern's ancient voice sounded relieved, "Then why don't you choose a side?"
