章節 62: New Faces, New Comrades

—Seven months until Purgatory—

It was an exciting, yet terrifying day. The talk of the house that week was news of the Outlanders who were sent out on an expedition before Ren's arrival were finally returning.

From what he had heard, that group was sent out to the neighboring kingdom of Vesta, a demi-human ruled nation, to handle a highly-important quest.

"Wait, I'm confused—if we're all basically the most wanted criminals in the land, how the hell do we even get quests?"

"Where did that come from? That doesn't matter right now, focus on what's today!"

"Right, right--this "Monster Hunt" thing. Do I really have to participate?"

Ren let out a sigh, just enjoying the fact Iris was sitting behind him on his bed as she fixed his messy bed head. He didn't really care about being presentable, but she insisted on him looking his best to leave a good first impression on the others.
