At this moment, not only the location where Rozen and his group were, but even people elsewhere seemed to hold their breath deliberately, making the sound disappear.
There was no other reason but the name that appeared just a second ago had such power.
Stella completely forgot about eating, as if all her attention had been taken away by that name.
Ikki also looked solemn, as if he had heard something impossible to ignore, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes and on his face.
"Ah..."
Kagami Kusakabe seemed to realize just now what she had mentioned, and her expression appeared somewhat timid.
Seeing this, Rozen casually swallowed the food in his mouth, speaking as if finding it amusing.
"You were so excited just now, why are you all so quiet now?"
Rozen couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.
This made the three people present look at each other and then smile bitterly in succession.
"It's unavoidable." Ikki seemed to understand as he spoke, "Since that person was mentioned, this kind of reaction is inevitable, right?"
Indeed.
"Even in the Vermillion Empire, I often hear this name. People who don't know him simply don't exist."
Stella also spoke very seriously.
It should be noted that the Vermillion Empire is just a small border country, and although the news inside the country is not backward, it is not as developed as advanced countries.
But even Stella claims to often hear this name, indicating how famous this name is to people.
However, to be precise, it's just a title, not a name.
However, the deeds of the owner of this title are known to everyone.
"Just ten years ago, a very mysterious and powerful Blazer suddenly appeared and entered the public eye."
Kagami Kusakabe began to speak as if she was going to retell a well-known rumor, unconsciously starting to narrate.
"People didn't know his appearance because every time he appeared, his face would be obscured by an unknown ability. Although everyone could see him, no one could remember his appearance, let alone see his face clearly. They only knew that he always wore a magnificent black coat, and during battles, he would emit brilliant fire powder all over, leaving a deep impression."
When such a mysterious Blazer first appeared, no one paid attention to him.
However, as time went by, many people could find traces of him all over the world and became involved in events related to him.
"It is said that during his travels around the world, the mysterious and powerful Blazer encountered many famous Blazers and had more or less disputes with them, eventually escalating into battles and defeating all challengers."
"It is said that the mysterious and powerful Blazer not only has a mysterious appearance but also has ever-changing abilities. So far, he has not only used various abilities but also summoned countless monsters, displaying all sorts of strange powers."
"Because the mysterious and powerful Blazer is so versatile and comprehensive, the three major powers in the world even suspect that he possesses multiple abilities and even multiple Devices, so they have sent people to contact him."
"Unfortunately, in the end, all attempts to contact this mysterious and powerful Blazer have failed, all because those who tried were directly defeated due to attempting to use force."
Kagami Kusakabe recounted like this.
"Even the rumored strongest fighters of the three major powers have tasted defeat in their encounters with him, causing a huge sensation worldwide."
The current world is mainly balanced by three opposing powers to maintain surface peace.
First is the faction advocating dividing the world's territory among several major powers, such as the United States, China, and Russia, forming the Union.
Second is the faction aiming to cooperate and maintain the current world order among small countries, formed by cooperation and collaboration among smaller countries like Japan, called the League of Mage-Knight Nations.
Lastly is the gathering of all the world's dark forces, existing as a third-party power, and is a super-large international criminal organization called the Rebellion.
At this stage, the world is maintaining superficial peace by the standoff between these three powers.
And among these three powers, there is a terrifying Blazer in each.
On the League's side is the current KOK world-ranked first, the leader of the League's international headquarters, Lord Whitebeard.
On the Union's side is the young leader of the Supernatural Power Unit, which commands the proud American force, known as The Hero.
On the Rebellion's side is the kingpin of the underworld who has long dominated the underground world since before World War II, the lord of numerous criminals, known as the Tyrant.
It is said that these three terrifying individuals each possess terrifying powers that can influence the world order, each commanding a major force, thereby making the other two powers dare not act rashly, thus maintaining the current situation in the world.
In other words, one can say that the current world situation entirely depends on the existence of these three individuals.
It can be imagined how powerful these three individuals are, and the idea that a truly powerful Blazer can influence the world order is not just talk, but a real existence.
However, all three of these individuals have realized the possibility of possessing multiple abilities and Devices, and have thus contacted that mysterious and powerful Blazer.
After all, if a Blazer could possess multiple abilities or Devices, then the force that obtained this power would have the possibility of directly obtaining world hegemony and suppressing the other two major powers.
So, at that time, the world truly revolved around that mysterious and powerful Blazer.
Unfortunately, many people from the three major powers, led by Lord Whitebeard, The Hero, and the Tyrant, all tasted defeat there.
From that moment on, the mysterious and powerful Blazer truly shook the world, attracting all kinds of strong individuals and defeating them all.
"There have been three battles that shocked the world by this mysterious and powerful Blazer."
"One was five years ago, when the Union and the League fought a major battle to seize control of a border country. The opponent suddenly appeared and single-handedly summoned tens of thousands of monster troops, completely defeating the armies of both the Union and the League, winning a lifeline for that country."
"The second was three years ago, when the Union, the League, and the Rebellion simultaneously encircled that Blazer to forcefully restrain him. That Blazer suddenly erupted with terrifying power at a critical moment, forcing Lord Whitebeard, The Hero, and the Tyrant to join forces, but they were all defeated. In the end, out of consideration for the world order, they were spared by that Blazer."
"The last one was two years ago, on the border of Western Europe, when that mysterious blazer fought against Edelweiss, known as the strongest swordsman of the modern age, Twin-Wings, ultimately turning thousands of kilometers of mountains into flat ground, but the outcome is unknown."
"Since then, people have called that mysterious and powerful Blazer——Tenkai."
"Of course, more people prefer to call him."
"The strongest Blazer in the world."
"This is the person known as Tenkai."
