A few hours earlier, while Noah was still unconscious…
Thornveil Estate.
It was morning, yet the entire estate was filled with chaos and hurried footsteps. But strangely enough, it wasn't because some powerful being had attacked them.

Every single one of those terrifying creatures scattered throughout the forest had suddenly collapsed and perished at almost the exact same moment.
It was an unbelievable sight. A month ago, a mysterious portal had suddenly appeared in the forest outside Everhold City.
From that portal, countless strange creatures had emerged without end.
At first, their numbers hadn't been much of a concern.
Everhold was home to many powerful humans, including several peak-level mages and formidable warriors. Dealing with the creatures themselves had been difficult, but far from impossible.
