The old man continued walking through the bloodstained streets while the flames reflected against his black clothes.
The monsters finally approached him.
Dozens charged toward him at once from the dark alleys.
But…
The old man never stopped walking.
He did not even glance toward them.
And in the very next moment—
The monsters' bodies suddenly split into halves.
Blood exploded throughout the street while corpses collapsed one after another before anyone could even understand what had happened.
Even Ethan himself…
Could not see the strike.
The Hunters froze in place.
The old man finally stopped before the nearest bonfire.
Then slowly raised his crimson eyes toward the Hunters.
And amidst the complete silence—
His calm, deep voice echoed throughout the entire city.
"Tonight…"
"Asterion shall join the hunt."
...
...
...
Out of nowhere, an additional Hunter appeared within the Legacy dungeon known as…
Old Ashvarn.
