Rya's eyes widened, she was a mage class hunter and one of the things that she was most confident and proud of was her detection skill as a mage. The moment she entered the gate, she had cast a detection spell around a 100m radius of her, no monster should have been able to pass her.
Whitman was impressive, no doubt, but she felt very angry and disappointed at herself, an S-rank mage that couldn't detect an incoming attack even though it was right in front of her.
'If the chairman didn't push me, I would have lost my head.' Her eyes shook.
"Ahh... I was guessing something was wrong. Did the gate change? We didn't meet any monster that was capable of using a spear the last time, right Eric?" Whitman nonchalantly asked the dark boy beside him.
But he didn't hear any response. He turned his head to look and there Eric was standing and trembling at the sight behind them.
