In the Weapon GraveYard, two swords collided with each other. Dave's sword glowed with a dark aura and Shiloh blocked it using her two-handed long sword. She was pushed back by the sudden attack but this was not enough to phase her. She didn't try to attack him but still maintained a fighting posture.
"...You know nothing about honor, as expected you are a savage." She spoke, " But I warn you that you are no match for me, I can tell that your level is not very high."
" Question yourself why were you pushed back after my attack...I am not going to attack you again. That was just a warning of what will happen." Dave spoke and then added, " As I said, I kill anyone that tries to get in my way. So if you want to mess with me now, then be ready to face the consequences that you may have never imagined."
She sheathed her sword and looked at the ground, seeing how far she was pushed back, she realized the power behind the attack.
" It must be a skill, that enhances your stats. I am not afraid that you can only do this much after using that skill because I also possess something similar." She spoke and then turned away, Walking outside towards the exit.
' Her stats might be around 8-12 units or more so if she uses her enhancement skill then I will be the one losing.' He thought.
It would be troublesome if something happens to the Guild. He didn't chase after Shiloh who walking towards the exit of the GraveYard. He didn't know what to do, he needed help in this situation and currently, Oscar wasn't here, The Grey wolf members weren't here, and he knew no one who can help him in this situation.
'...The information guild? Will they help me? No, they aren't trustworthy.' He thought.
After thinking for a while he felt something in his hand, the sword that he was holding was shaking profoundly.
[ Do you want to be the master of the sword?]
[ Yes/ No]
The notification popped up in front of her, but he selected [ No]. If he wanted to steal something then he would rather choose whatever is the best this place can offer.
He climbed the mountain to look for a weapon until he reached somewhere at the very top. There was one weapon that looked different from other weapons buried here. Rather than directly being buried in the ground, it was stuck into a large black rock.
The weapon was different from the Scimitar that he used before. Dave felt fear of seeing that sword like it was a sin to even look at the sword.
' It's strong.' Despite being scared he was still tempted to take the weapon and reached out for it but before he could do that his vision turned black...

Meanwhile, at Wolf Slayer Guild Branch, Iris was waiting for people to come for the job interviews. She had once again posted an advertisement in the public guild and also asked for help from some people she knew.
However, no one came for the job interviews.
'...If it was Jin, then he would have thought of something.' She thought as she finally sat hopelessly waiting for someone to come.
Suddenly the DoorBell rang causing her to Jolt from her hopeless state and ran towards the Guildhall. However, instead of an applicant, she saw a familiar face.
" Mark, what are you doing here?" She asked.
" You need to run, Shiloh Natalis is coming to capture you, they have declared war against your guild." He spoke.
" Why me?" She wasn't asking, she already knew the answer to why they were coming after her, she spoke because she felt scared and tried to deny that it is not possible.
She had heard about Shiloh many times who was one of the highest-level humans in the town. Before this day she didn't even know that Oscar had saved the town in the past, or even killed someone. She had nothing to do with anything except being responsible for handling this branch.
" What do I do? " She asked.
" ...Hide, let's hide you until that monster comes, he will be able to fight against them," Mark spoke and dragged Iris out of the Guild.
Without even closing the doors, Iris ran through the crowd of people behind Mark.
" Wait, My parents! What if they target them?" She asked.
" ...They can't, your father is well respected in the town. You don't think they would have tried to attack you before if you were just anyone?" Mark spoke. " We are going where your father is currently."
Iris nodded after hearing that, if someone could protect him in this situation then it was her father only. She was afraid of what would happen to Dave but at the moment, she can only hope that he will be able to stay alive for some time until she gets some help.
Mark told her about the place they were running towards but it was still far away. Running through the crowd was a good option but it also slowed them down. Mark hurried Iris as much as he can and led her through a street that he considered a shortcut.
However, suddenly a person wearing a black cloak jumped in the front and caught them off-guard. He directly aimed for Iris but Mark pulled her out of the way and then swung his arm to throw a small dagger at the mysterious man who was somehow able to block it. The dagger stuck to the man's shoulder, making him take a step back from the fight. Not long after that more people wearing the same cloaks were surrounding them from every corner.
" We are the men of Madam Shiloh and we have been ordered to capture you alive or dead, so you have two options. Come with us without resisting and you guys will live, or we will fight you until we slash your throats." The man spoke, and both Mark and Iris knew what was the better choice for them in this situation.
