Seeing the area inside the forest turning red and filled with blazing flames, Ryu instantly became serious."Let's go in immediately!" He directly gave the command and dashed ahead first.Ryu felt that something strange was happening inside, so he needed to see it with his own eyes.As for the three women, they followed from behind and moved quickly without reducing their speed.Not long after, the four of them reached the destination and the gazes of all four people focused toward the blazing flames burning ahead.There were various people lying dead, they all wore clothes similar to those of tribal villagers.Ryu, upon seeing that, instantly became gloomy. "You all, be careful..! The enemies are lurking and we need to solve this problem as quickly as possible!""Relax, we are not as weak as you think!" Jessica answered while staring sharply ahead."That is right, don't underestimate the three of us, Ryu! We understand our own strength!" Livia added to Jessica's words.Seeing the wom

Back to the present...Ryu sensed the presence of someone right in front of him, he shifted to the side and a sword blade swept past quickly.Swosh!The vertically slashed sword struck directly into the tree branch.The eyes of the man in the black mask narrowed when he saw his attack avoided.However, right at that moment an attack came and he was not ready to receive it.Bam!Ryu swung a kick and struck directly into his opponent's stomach.He briefly glanced toward the branch he used as footing before increasing the strength in his legs.Bang!The tree branch instantly snapped apart right when Ryu jumped downward.Not long after, a second shadow appeared to welcome Ryu while swinging its short sword.Clang!Ryu blocked the incoming attack, then he counterattacked quickly and viciously.Ding! Ding! Slash!The slash directly struck the body of the black shadow before it flew backward and crashed into the ground quite hard.The powerful impact made the man in the black mask frown.He

Bang!"Ahhh!" The eyes of the man in the black mask widened along with a faint scream. He gritted his teeth and his eyes sharpened toward Ryu.However, Ryu did not care at all. He cruelly stepped on the wound of the man in the black mask.Bang! Bang!Ryu's gaze was quite cold, then he said calmly. "Dying miserably is what suits you...""Feel this pain you are suffering for even longer! Until you realize that slaughtering people is a lowly act..."Ryu continued stepping on him without caring about the faint screams and sharp stares from the man in the black mask.It did not take long before the man in the black mask closed his eyes. He died because the sharp pain continuously struck the nerves in his brain.Ryu, who saw that the life vitality of the man in the black mask had disappeared, casually kicked the man to the side.Bang!The powerful kick sent the man in the black mask flying toward where Troper was."Huh, if it were the old me, I would probably have been overwhelmed. However,

Hearing Hazard's statement, Ryu merely stared calmly before turning to look toward the place where the elders' corpses were scattered apart."So everything started from the third elder and he killed the other elders, then they launched an attack against you?"Hazard shook his head. "The third elder indeed killed the other elders. However, the other three corpses were controlled to fight against me."Ryu frowned when he heard that statement. "If that is truly the case, then there was someone who already controlled the third elder.""He controlled the third elder to kill the other three elders. In my opinion, there are two enemies who possess controlling powers."After saying that, Ryu's eyes narrowed and he continued speaking softly. "The Moron Organization again...""But this time, I realized one thing.. this group most likely possesses an orbit stone that can control someone.""This enemy has a control-type ability, while yours is physical enhancement." Ryu calmly gave his conclusion

Hearing that, Ryu frowned. However, he did not ask further."Alright, let's go." He stepped away leaving the village office area."Understood, Sir!" Hazard followed from behind. The two of them walked toward the exit of the village to see everyone's condition.Meanwhile, Livia, who had already burned all the enemies, instantly turned to the side and saw the shadowy figure of a woman.Livia's eyes narrowed, she did not launch an attack because she only saw the strange woman briefly before the woman ran away."Could she be one of the people who caused chaos in this village...?" Livia asked in confusion, however she shook her head and moved to another place.She needed to meet her other sisters because she was worried that something might happen to those two women.Not long after, Livia finally found Jessica and Esmeralda. Both of them had also finished exterminating the criminal group."How are you both?!" Livia appeared near the two of them. Her presence itself had already been noticed
