The Mysterious Zen House

Max wiped the blood on his cheeks. There were dozens of beasts lying around. He seemed to have lost the count of the number of beast he had slaughtered on his way.

He didn't have anymore time to look around for the rest of the guys, it was time to return and prepare for the raid with Ocien.

But something funny happened. When he was looking all around, he didn't find anyone. But now that he gave up, someone familiar popped up.

Max slowed down his pace and quietly approached the place after sensing that there was someone else there as well.

"I can't do it…" 

Max heard Kevin's voice, he seemed troubled.

"Why are you doing this? Don't you know the situation? Just foreit and go back…"

Max frowned when he saw that the person who spoke those words was Bahamut's brother and another one of the Celestials, Faryl Zen.

Max couldn't understand what was going on? Why would someone like Faryl force a tiny character from one of the branch families to forfeit the competition?
