Chapter 10: The One Who Shouldn't Exist
The last traces of crimson ash drifted away on the night breeze.Neither Luna nor Kael spoke.They stared at the empty ground where the crystal had vanished.Finally, Kael broke the silence."What was that?"Luna forced herself to remain calm."I don't know."His silver eyes met hers."You expect me to believe that?""I've never seen anything like it."That wasn't entirely a lie.She had never seen that crystal in the game.Kael studied her face for a long moment.He seemed to be searching for something.Fear.Guilt.A mistake.Instead, he only found exhaustion."You look frightened.""I am."It was the first completely honest answer she had given him.Kael glanced toward the dark rooftops."Whoever left that message wanted you to find it.""You think so?""I know so."He crouched beside the scattered dust and touched the ground."No footprints."Luna frowned."There were footprints.""When I arrived, there were none."A cold chill ran through her body.Had she imagined them?No.She
Chapter 9: The Warning Left Behind
The crimson notification faded as quickly as it had appeared.Luna blinked.It was gone.She looked around at the members of Black Phoenix. They were busy helping the wounded, gathering supplies, and escorting civilians to safety.No one reacted.No one had seen the message."So only I can see it..."A knot formed in her stomach.If the Editor could send messages directly to her, then she was already being watched more closely than she had imagined."Luna."Kael's voice interrupted her thoughts.She turned to find him standing a few steps away."The commander of Ironstone City wants to thank everyone who fought today."She gave a small nod."I'll come."As they walked through the ruined streets, Luna's eyes wandered across the destruction.Shops had been reduced to piles of wood.Stone buildings had collapsed.Citizens searched desperately for missing family members.A little girl sat beside her injured father, crying quietly while a healer treated his wounds.Luna lowered her gaze.T
Chapter 8: The Black Phoenix Guild
The crimson portal continued to expand.Dark energy poured into the streets like thick smoke.Every soldier and adventurer stared at the terrifying scene in silence.Then another monstrous hand emerged from the portal.The ground trembled beneath its weight.One royal knight dropped his sword."W-We can't fight two bosses..."Fear spread through the battlefield.Several adventurers turned and fled."Run!""The city is lost!"Kael stepped forward instead.He raised his sword toward the portal."No one retreats."His calm voice echoed across the ruined street."If we abandon the city now, thousands will die."The members of Black Phoenix immediately took their positions.Not one of them argued.Luna watched them in disbelief.Even facing certain death, none of them ran.She understood why they were the strongest guild in the kingdom.It wasn't because they had the greatest strength.It was because they trusted their leader completely.The Abyss Warden suddenly roared.Its chains shot ac
Chapter 7: The Future She Shouldn't Know
The dust from the collapsed western pass still hung in the distance.No one spoke.The members of Black Phoenix exchanged uneasy glances as they continued along the eastern route.Every few moments, someone looked toward Luna.She pretended not to notice.But she could feel their suspicion growing.One warning could have been luck.Two would be impossible.Kael walked at the front of the group, his expression calm as always.Only Luna noticed the subtle change.He had become even more observant.He was paying attention to everything she did.A scout suddenly appeared from the trees.He dropped to one knee."Guild Master."Kael stopped."Report.""The eastern pass is clear.""And the monsters?""They're advancing toward Ironstone City.""How many?"The scout hesitated."More than expected.""Estimate.""...At least three thousand."Several guild members sucked in sharp breaths."Three thousand?""That's an army."Kael nodded."We move."The group picked up their pace.After nearly an h
Chapter 6: The Dungeon Break
Luna walked beside Kael in complete silence.The forest path stretched ahead of them, while the members of Black Phoenix followed a short distance behind. No one spoke. The only sounds were the rustling leaves and the steady rhythm of boots against the dirt road.She kept her eyes forward.Her thoughts, however, were in complete chaos.The Editor Is Watching You.The crimson message refused to leave her mind.She had never seen anything like it in the game.Was the mysterious Editor watching every move she made?Or had it simply been another system error?Kael broke the silence."You're thinking too much."Luna glanced at him."You've been watching me?""I watch everyone.""That sounds exhausting.""It keeps my people alive."She couldn't argue with that.After several minutes, the trees thinned, revealing the King's Highway. Merchants, travelers, and knights moved along the wide stone road as if nothing unusual had happened.None of them knew a village had nearly been destroyed.One
Chapter 5: No Choice but to Follow
Luna stared at the black phoenix badge in Kael Ravencrest's hand.The silver emblem gleamed under the afternoon sun.Around them, the villagers had fallen silent. Even Captain Rowan remained quiet, watching the confrontation unfold.Luna slowly looked up."You want me to join your guild?"Kael's expression remained unreadable."I said you have two choices.""I heard you."She folded her arms, trying to hide how nervous she felt."But I don't know you."A faint smile appeared on one of the guild members' faces."No one refuses the Guild Master."Luna ignored him."I just saved this village. Why are you treating me like a criminal?"Kael answered without hesitation."Because you know things you shouldn't."His calm voice carried enough authority to silence everyone nearby."You identified an unknown monster.""You predicted its attacks.""You chose the only structure capable of killing it."He took another step closer."That isn't luck."Luna forced herself to meet his eyes."I've alway
