"Edan!"

Enyama's mournful cry echoed through the residence area, and it was impossible to distinguish whether it was Enyama's tears or the rain falling. Gravin, Sakura, and the Huntector guards present all looked somber.

"Weren't you supposed to be escorting Judge Yurin, my lord?" one of them asked.

"We were wiped out... by a new breed of Skullbreakers... they... appeared again," the people present were visibly surprised.

Gravin instructed Sakura to read Enyama's perspective to understand the whole process of the attack and gather more detailed information about the new breed of Skullbreakers.

Initially, they thought Tiger Skullbreaker had turned to dust like an ordinary Fakeslave. However, Enyama noticed that the dust particles were converging in one direction. He pursued them, with Honora following behind. Despite their speed, the dust particles flew even faster, and Enyama lost track of them. However, he unexpectedly found Ching and Edan lying on the ground.

Despite this, they still had no clue about the other new breed of Skullbreaker, except that it could attack from a distance. How it attacked and with what remained unknown.

The reappearance of the new breed of Skullbreakers resulted in the demise of Justice Goddess Yurin. In response, the royal family temporarily halted all official travel and ordered the Huntectors to intensify patrols outside the city to investigate the incident.

Cloude, accompanied by Mock, transported the bodies of other victims back to the city. "Even though I practiced ContQi, my whole body still aches terribly," he complained to his master, a rare occurrence.

"You mentioned earlier that your power increased involuntarily when you were injured. Those are powers you haven't yet mastered. It's the initial awakening of a 'Talent.' Pain is to be expected. Focus on ContQi for now," Mock replied as they returned to the residence area and quickly learned about the events that had transpired.

The reappearance of the new "Skullbreaker" breed left him immensely excited because even this new breed of "Skullbreaker" was a Fakeslave. However, the casualties from this attack also saddened him. Cloude, who followed behind him, was equally upset upon hearing the news of Edan's accidental death. He hadn't expected that just a month ago, he had become Rachel's boyfriend, and now they were separated in life and death.

In the evening, Shoyo and Jennie returned as well, and as soon as they entered the city, they learned about the day's events.
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpGHbMcasj
While Jennie didn't know Edan well, she still felt a little saddened by his death. In contrast, Shoyo couldn't stop crying, calling out "senpai" repeatedly.

"Hey, where's Rachel? Weren't they celebrating their birthdays together today?" Jennie deliberately asked to gauge Shoyo's feelings towards Rachel because she was convinced Rachel had been with Edan today. If Edan was dead, was Rachel safe?

Shoyo was too preoccupied with his senior to remember that Rachel was with them. "Damn it, how could I forget that! Rachel... You must be okay, Rachel!" Then he rushed towards the place where Edan's body was being placed without caring about anything else.

"Hehe..." Jennie, who was left behind, secretly chuckled and returned to the college dormitory alone.
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmPTFUWpZL
Seeing Shoyo so anxious, just as Jennie had suspected, he still had feelings for Rachel. Even after she announced that she was together with Edan, his feelings hadn't faded.
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHMK2Tgfmj
"Did you happen to be nearby when this happened? Did you find another body? They were celebrating their birthdays together today, so how could there be only the senior's body..." Shoyo anxiously asked the guards. However, they had no knowledge of it.
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUDLT1hST5
"There really wasn't, we heard it was a Skullbreaker attack. If they were together and there's no body to be found, they're probably already in the Skullbreakers' clutches. Are you planning to go in?" Upon hearing this news, Shoyo's mind flashed with images of Rachel being devoured by Skullbreakers. More than Edan, he was worried about Rachel now. The sudden accident was tearing at his heart.
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEQ0VXM7sN
"Rachel... Miss Rachel! Why... why did you leave me like this... Miss Rachel!" Shoyo knelt on the ground, crying and shouting, and even the guards were moved to tears.

Then, a voice came from behind. "Why are you crying here, making such a scene, it's embarrassing."
