The Place Where Everything Begins

Even though a mage was tilted heavily towards mana, spells, and other magic-related stuff, most mages still had a heaven-defying physical capability when compared to ordinary people.

That's why Kahn, a class-1 true mage, could move very fast that might even be on par with what Jeremy had displayed so far within the first stage.

At this time, Kahn was already in front of Jeremy as the former swung his long sword hazardously towards the latter's neck.

*Whoosh*

Jeremy ducked down hurriedly, barely avoiding the deadly strike, letting the sharp sword cut some of his hair strands in its trajectory.

However...

*Bam*

Kahn side kicked Jeremy heavily right on his body, causing the latter's body to fly back in a straight line, hitting against the wooden door behind.

Jeremy's body broke through the door, hitting against some wooden furniture within the house, breaking them in the process.

Afterward, Jeremy skidded on the ground for some meters before finally stopping as his body had lost the propelled momentum.

"What the fuck!?" shouted Morgan as he hurriedly ran up to Jeremy lying on the floor not far from him.

"Are you okay?"

Morgan asked the messy Jeremy as he helped the latter up from the wooden floor.

"I..."

*Cough*

"I'm... okay..."

Jeremy spoke while coughing out dried air from his mouth roughly as he felt out of breath from the pain on his chest right now.

It was clear that he was not okay in the least from his current appearance and symptoms shown.

At this time, some footsteps suddenly resounded out from behind the two as Morgan turned to look behind him, only to see Kahn was walking towards them with a long sword in his hand.

Not long after, Kahn stopped at some meters away from the two people, followed closely by the guard, who had stood in front of the working room's door earlier.

Right now, the guard also unsheathed his sword, readying himself to strike at any given order from the camp's leader. He looked pretty faithful, if not considering the confusion plastered on his face.

"What's the meaning of this? Why are you two fighting?" asked Morgan as he stood up from the ground, staring questioningly at Kahn, the camp's leader.

Even though Morgan appeared to be brave and seemed to side with Jeremy, Morgan felt very afraid of the stout man before him deep inside his heart.

Morgan knew how strong the guy was; he had seen how Kahn challenged and fought against more than twenty people simultaneously and still won quite easily.

Just for the position of this camp's leader, Kahn had gone so far as to let everyone challenge him. He even killed some people whom opposed him and didn't want him to be their leader...

The man, Kahn, was a true savage beast...

'Damn it! How could such a thing happen?' thought Morgan as he tried hard to find a way out.

However, he didn't know how the conflict had started in the first place, so he couldn't find any solution as of yet.

The only thing Morgan could do right now was to ask the assaulter, Kahn, himself,

"Please, tell me about the problem. I believe there is a way to solve this issue without any need for violence."

Meanwhile, the two guards at the house's entrance, including the eight people waiting outside, rushed into the guest room from outside the house to see what was transpiring here.

"What happened?"

"You guys have fought?"

"Calm down, guys..."

"Tommy was hurt; Kahn did it?"

"..."

Upon seeing Tommy was hurt, most people within the scout team suddenly frowned and expressed some dissatisfaction on their faces.

Simultaneously, everyone turned to give cold stares towards Kahn, whom seemed to be the perpetrator. After all, their benefactor, Tommy, who had helped them fight with the kenkus, was hurt.

Even though they felt afraid of their leader, Kahn, but at the very least, they needed an explanation for this incident.

After seeing many people cramming themselves within this cramped wooden house, Morgan shook his head slightly before harrumphing audibly.

*Hmph!*

Right now, everyone's attention was on the camp's leader, Kahn, as he was clearly the culprit because Tommy and Morgan's eyes were on the latter.

Those eight people from the scout team seemed to be ready to take out their weapons from the sheathes at any time.

Kahn realized everyone's cold eyes were on him now, so he shook his head slightly before speaking up with a stern tone,

"I think the guy behind Morgan is a spy."

"..."

"..."

His words were truly unexpected...

After Kahn's voice died down, everyone present could only look on in a confused manner...

A spy? The one who had helped them was a spy?

Right now, they couldn't even digest the meaning behind the word 'spy' properly...

Where could the spy, Tommy, come from?

Was he sent here by the kenkus?

Was he somehow related to the wolves?

Or where else did he come from?

Many questions went past through everyone's mind at a breakneck speed, as even the three guards felt muddled by the ambiguous word, 'spy'.

"Tommy is a spy?" said someone from the scout team as he turned left and right to look at the struggling-to-stand Jeremy and the camp's leader, Kahn.

He didn't know whether to believe Kahn's words or not as they were too baseless...

Everyone else's reactions were also, more or less, the same as the one who had said earlier. They needed an explanation.

"I... am a spy?" Jeremy spoke with difficulty as his face morphed into an incredulous one before continuing with a doubtful tone,

"Why do you think I'm a spy? Do you think I was sent from another force, or maybe, the kenkus?"

Jeremy shook his head slightly after finally standing up from the floor, but he still heaved in and out roughly from pain and out of breath.

It appeared that even the middle-aged man, Tommy, didn't quite get Kahn's words at all, let alone other people present within the room, who had just come inside.
