Bernard felt like his heart stopped beating for a moment when he saw Marten's lifeless figure tossed to the ground. Anger swelled up in his heart, seeing his friend's dead body. They had been through a lot, going through many life-and-death battles, and surviving through the hardship together. Yet this was where his friend's journey ended, dying in the hand of the beast.

As if the death of Marten was not enough to slap him, another body was thrown next to Marten's dead body. It was his other best friend, Gerit. Gerit died with his eyes opened, his neck was twisted a hundred and eighty degrees. From the expression, it was as if Gerit encountered a terrifying monster.

Bernard directed his anger to these beasts for Marten's death, but he blamed himself for Gerit's death. If he did not send him inside the castle, then Gerit would not die. The anger, guilt, and fear mixed together in him. Thanks to that, he managed to compose himself instead of angrily jumping to these beasts. The fact Marten and Gerit were killed, the enemy was stronger than they anticipated.

'Marten is gone now. I will take his position to lead the adventurers,' His mind was thinking fast. There were two options for him. It was to fight these beasts and avenge the death of the adventurers. Or he could surrender and get as many as adventurers out alive instead of fighting the beasts with unknown rank. He was not that confident to fight the beast that killed Marten.

"Do we have more people to fight?" Avyn's gaze fell on the adventurers, scanning the crown as she tried to identify her next target. Even though Marten did not put up that much challenge against her, she still had fun. She had been trying to use her ancestor's knowledge and got used to how her ancestors fought as well. And at this level, she looked for someone who could last a little longer so she could relive the memories in her head.

Soon The Kankara'Xeo found his target. Her target was not Vice Bernard, but the man on the roof. A red-brown-haired man, with a scar on the forehead, wearing green light armor, and a sword on his back. She found someone stronger than the blond-haired who seemed the leader of the adventurers.

"Tch, how did she notice me?" The man on the roof clicked his tongue. He erased his presence and waited for the fight to break out. He wanted to determine how strong the beastmen were before deciding if he should fight with his adventurers' comrades or not.

"It's Black Iron Ladirma, The Tempest Swordmaster!" An adventurer followed where Avyn looked at and called out.

Wood, Iron, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Mithril, Black Iron, and Cardinal. Cardinal was a special rank that was chosen by Two God Ranks directly. One could not reach Cardinal just by taking a quest, but they must earn The Two God's approval. One could say Cardinal was The Chosen One, and Black Iron was just below that Cardinal.

Even though Black Iron might be one lower rank than Cardinal. Cardinal was not necessarily stronger than The Black Iron Adventurers. The difference between the two ranks in power might not be that big or not different, at all. The twelve Cardinals were Demi-God Ranks, and all Black Iron Adventurers were also Demi-God Rank. That was why the appearance of Ladirma brought joy to the other adventurers.

Marten might no longer be here to fight for them, but they had another to lead them to fight the beast.

Vice Bernard glanced at the roof where he was before. The rational decision would be retreating rather than taking unnecessary risks. But now he regained his confidence a little bit with The Tempest Swordmaster with him.

Ladirma never left his eyes on Avyn from the start, and he began shaking his head, "I don't know where they come from, but you are better not thinking of fighting them. You can't win against them unless we have twelve Cardinals and at least twenty Black Irons."

It sounded absurd because the last time the twelve Cardinals and more than twenty Black Irons gathered was when they were in a war against The Temple.

Tang Shaoyang pulled Avyn's shoulders, "I will allow you all to retreat but with conditions. First and foremost, can you guarantee that The Adventurer Guild won't meddle in my fight with The Temple? If you can guarantee that, then I can guarantee your lives as well."

Ladirma was about to agree to the condition right away. It did not matter if his side adhered to the promise or not. The most important thing was to get out of this situation alive. Whether The Adventurer Guild would meddle or not, it did not really matter to him. He became a Black Iron Adventurer just through sheer power, but he also used his head. Knowing the threat and retreat, not fighting all the monsters he encountered was the reason he reached Black Iron.

"Second, I need the two God Ranks of The Adventurer Guild to take an oath and also sign the contract for me to believe you. Not that I will believe them even with the oath and the contract." He wanted to say the third condition, asking the adventurer on the roof to guide him to the Aidan Continent later, but he decided not to, "That's it. If you can satisfy the two conditions, then I will live your lives."

'F*CK ME!' Ladirma was about to curse that out loud. There was no way he could convince the two God Ranks to come down here and make an oath and make a contract. A single Black Iron Adventurer was not enough to call The God Rank. The worst part was that he could not communicate with The God Rank. Only Cardinals could speak to the God Rank.

Meanwhile, Bernard's heart began thumping again as he listened to Ladirma. Even Ladirma who was more powerful than Marten did not have the confidence to win against these beasts. He might not know Ladirma, but he trusted Black Iron's judgment.

"I can't make a promise on behalf of all Adventurer Guild, let alone making them take an oath. What about this: I will not meddle in your fight with The Temple. And I will assure you that no adventurers from The Turan Adventurers will meddle in your fight as well. If they receive the quest from The Temple to fight you, then I will kill them myself!" freeweb(n)ovel.com

"I made the conditions, not you. Unfortunately, we can't agree to it, meaning there's no deal," At this moment, the skeleton and the other spirits came out of the castle.

"We have killed all knights inside, Master," Karoen reported.
