Synopsis

Kruwell, a self-proclaimed true successor to his family, is resentful about being thrown into special forces training. Now, he is being made to drag goblin corpses to a dangerous, secluded area known as the Valley of Snakes by his companion. His companion, seemingly aware of Kruwell’s powerful yet unstable energy, reveals the location is the dwelling of a monster, not a treasure, before instructing him to flee. This chapter shows Kruwell's pride, but highlights his forced subjugation and a possible hidden power.
