Cale opened the map.

It was a map of the inside of the manor. Ron had created it using Hoya’s explanation.

He looked toward Hoya.

“Hoya, it is just as you said.”

He smiled and Hoya awkwardly smiled back, despite turning completely pale.

‘That’s odd.’

Cale felt oddly baffled as he observed Hoya.

‘This reaction is much more severe than I expected.’

The young Blood Demon candidates, Hoya and Yoon… The two of them had not even tried to fight back and basically bowed toward him ever since they experienced his Dominating Aura.

The enemies Cale had met until now did cower and tense up because of this aura, but they had never turned so servile so quickly and completely.

‘He did say it is enough to make a god cower, is that the reason?’

Was the strengthened Dominating Aura that amazing?

‘Or maybe this power seems especially strong to them?’

He did not think that the young Blood Demon candidates were acting. The fear visible on their faces was real.

If they could act out such expressions, the Blood Cult would have long since destroyed the Central Plains.

‘I guess I will get my answer if I run into other young Blood Demon candidates or others from the Blood Cult.’

The strengthened Dominating Aura…

He could slowly figure out its true strength.

– Human, it is quiet!

Cale nodded after hearing Raon’s voice in his mind.

He looked at the map again.

The large manor had a peculiar shape.

After they stealthily infiltrated the formation, they saw large and tall rectangular walls that looked fortified for defense.

The buildings inside the walls spiraled like a snail shell.

Of those buildings, only a single one…

The one at the bottom of that spiral… There was one building distant from the rest to the south.

‘This is where they said Old man Baek would be.’

Sniff sniff.

He could hear Raon sniffing in the air.

– Human, the stench of medicine is so strong!

They could smell all sorts of medicinal roots.

They couldn’t tell outside the formation, but the smell was extremely strong as soon as they entered.

– There is also an extremely vile rotten stench!

– It also smells like there is some dead mana somewhere!

Raon rambled on without stopping.

However, it was extremely calm right now.

Cale’s group was leisurely walking.

The reason was simple.

First of all, they chose a usually unoccupied path along the outskirts as they headed toward their target building.

“Who-”

The patrols who showed up every so often…

“Eek, Yoon-nim!”

They tensed up and stood at attention after seeing Yoon at the front of the group.

The patrols were too low in ranking to ask her any questions, despite her sudden appearance.

And once those patrols appeared…

Shh.

Ron came out of the shadows, and as they were focused on Yoon…

“!”

“Ugh!”

He knocked them unconscious one by one.

Cale walked without anything stopping him, as if he was water flowing down a stream.

It wasn’t loud, nobody was making a fuss…

He was out for a nice walk.

That was the feeling as they walked.

Of course, Hoya and Yoon’s faces became gloomier as they walked, but Cale didn’t care.

He asked Hoya a question.

“Jiangshis had grades?”

He asked as soon as they arrived at the spot marked on the map.

Step.

Cale stopped walking.
