63 Hateful Encounter (1/2)

Yale couldn't mistake that laugh, that was Heruk's voice.

However, another laugh sounded just after that, that meant that Heruk wasn't alone.

After hearing that laugh, Kermu was who had a strange face because he knew to who belonged that laugh.

The group advanced until they saw the other party, Heruk was in a group of eight, they had more people than Yale's group.

Furthermore, there was another guy, but he was lying on the floor in a sorry state, Yale's group didn't know if he was alive or not. However, it was clear the identity of those who left him in such state.

Fortunately, that guy wasn't one of Yale's friends or had some relation to the other members of the group.

However, even if he wasn't one of Yale's friends, Yale knew about him. He was the guy who Yale beat in the tournament with one hit when stepping in the expert stage.

”Hahaha, that is the second one, I only need to kill five more.”

Hearing Heruk's words, Yale worried about his friends because his words implied that Heruk had killed someone else from the academy before.

Furthermore, Heruk was also planning to kill Lor based on the numbers he said.

At that moment someone in Heruk's group noticed Yale and the others.

”Oh, so we have some audience. How are you Kermu? I see that you still don't die with that puny team of yours, you even recruited some waste to increase your numbers.”

The one who said that was also a member of the Kurk clan and someone who hate Kermu due to his high position in the clan.

”Kreg, so you are also alive and doing wicked things when no one sees you, you don't have any honor, you are a disgrace for the Kurk Clan.”

Kermu also hated Kreg due to his underhanded acts; those were things a noble shouldn't do. However, Kermu never obtained enough evidence to make the clan punish him.

Heruk was the only commoner in the opposite group; all the other seven members were from the noble clans or the imperial family.

Including Kreg, there were three members of the Kurk Clan; they were the dominant faction in the group.

Two of the others were from the Hyeran Clan, the same clan as Hyrk.

There was also one from the Zhan Clan and one from the imperial family.

However, there wasn't any member of the other two clans; Yale had still never met anyone from those clans.

Seeing his teammates faces, Yale had no doubts that they knew about that there were members of their clans in the other party and that they didn't have a good relation with them.

”You have also recruited that guy; you can't say anything about us recruiting someone.”

Hyrk was who spoke, he opposed to recruiting Yale at the start, but after all the things the group lived together, he also considered Yale as a friend.

”We indeed recruited him; he isn't bad. We already decided that our Hyeran Clan would recruit him, we even gifted your younger sister to him, and he accepted very happily.”

One of the members of the Hyeran Clan replied to Hyrk who was almost losing his control after hearing that they dared to gift his sister to a commoner.

Hyrk had a little sister, but her body had problems and the experts in the clan sentenced that she wouldn't be able to practice in her whole life.

Hyrk had trained hard to obtain enough status to protect his little sister from the clan abuses, the Hyeran Clan was a body supremacist and valued strength above everything else, a little sick girl like Hyrk's sister would have a rough time without any protection.

Heruk was the type of practitioner the Hyeran Clan liked, and as the other party hated Hyrk, so they decided to gift his sister to Heruk.

”Wait, that one within their group is Yale, someone from my academy. I need to kill him! You, hand over him to me! He should die a painful death!”

At that time, who broke in anger was Serka.

”In your dreams, a mere commoner like you can't touch him.”

Serka didn't think her words well; she didn't notice what her words could mean to the others. However, as she didn't have any brothers or sister, Yale was the most direct family she had, besides her mother, so she was angered when a nobody ordered to hand him over to kill him.

”Isn't he another commoner? Why do you protect him? You are engaged with that Kermu from the Kurk Clan, right? Are you cheating your future husband where he himself is present?”

The one who spoke those words were the Zhan Clan's member, he noted somewhat strange in Serka's previous words and wanted to try to anger her a bit more to see if he could discover the reason.

Seeing the situation, Kermu was about to told Serka that she should cool herself before continuing to speak, but he was late.
