Infiltrating the Stronghold

For fifteen years, the Eternal Flame has spread its influence across the southwestern territories of the Avala Continent, secretly taking lives all the while.

Their operations have always been marked by caution.

The major nations in the southwest have never been able to catch them red-handed, which is why they've remained rooted.

Indeed, it was somewhat surprising for the intelligence corps to provide such precise information on the Eternal Flame this time.

Nula even considered the possibility of it being a trap laid by the enemy.

Yet, when faced with the potential loss of human lives, Nula chose to take the risk.

If Rodel were truly to fall to the monster tide, the death toll would be far more than just one or two.

...

Nula carefully rounded a corner, encountering neither enemies nor any divergences in the path until the next bend.
