Vittorino Dennis was the Viscount of Sharp Horn City and a Silver Knight.
At the assembly of nobles in Wushan Castle last month, not only had he attended in person, but he had also said he would personally lead his elite troops on the expedition against the Polante Thief Gang.
Ronin hadn't expected him to be absent, so he sent someone to make inquiries and only then learned the reason for his nonappearance.
Apparently, a large Sea Magical Beast, a seven-to-eight-meter-long Sword Shark, had suddenly appeared in Dennis Port. It had destroyed many merchant ships recently and even caused dozens of casualties.
In order to resolve the port's problem as quickly as possible, Viscount Vitorino had taken his elite Knights aboard a warship to try and eliminate the beast. However, he hadn't anticipated the creature piercing the hull, causing the warship to slowly sink.
