Kevin's death meant little to Ethan.
Upon returning to the Dungeon, he first took the time to heal his injured minions.
The strength of Wolf Fang was impressive, prompting him to reassess his prior underestimation.
He had thought his Bipedal Wyvern army could sweep through the Sunset Empire, but it seemed he had been too naive.
After all, in a world where unpredictable Heroes exist, the NPC regime would soon be supplanted as the Heroes leveled up and became the dominant force.
The signs were already there with Wolf Fang boasting over ten B-rank Heroes.
"If the Sunset Empire rallies its forces and launches a full-scale attack on me now, the outcome would be uncertain…" Ethan pondered, studying the map closely.
He finally locked his attention on East Sea, located downstream of Riverside.
