In a certain part of the Mesha City that not just anyone can enter, a man sitting in a large magic circle can be seen

The red-colored magic circle was glowing with a dim light. The man in the middle of it was clouded with a dark red mist that makes it impossible to see him

He stayed seated in the magic formation as if it was his only purpose in this world. People that don\'t move for a long period of time would surely have problems moving their limbs

However, the intense aura this person has makes it impossible for people to think that he would have problems killing the majority of the people living inside the city

No one knows what this person was really doing but one thing is certain, no one can mess with him if they want to continue living in this world

Suddenly, two dots of an even brighter shade of red shone. It came from the eyes of this mysterious person that he opened as he senses something

The silence continued to reign in the area before the unknown person spoke again

"One" the man called out and another person that was covered in black clothing all over his body has appeared

The newcomer appeared outside the magic circle as he kneeled with the utmost respect

"Master" the newcomer addressed the person in the dark mist as his master. Even the way he acts is already enough for people to realize what kind of relationship they have

"Any news?" The \'Master\' inquired and the person called One shook his head

"I\'m afraid to disappoint Master. Unfortunately, there is still no suitable vessel that appeared" One replied respectfully

The silence in the area continued for a bit more before the Master spoke again

"Keep your eyes and ears open at all times. I feel that something huge would happen soon" the Master said seriously while looking at a certain direction in which he sensed some sort of power

This power is still far from being a concern for him. However, this power is already strong compared to normal people but it feels too... too little. It was like it is only a fraction of a much bigger power. It was enough for a person like him to even pay some attention to it

"As Master wishes" One answered again before vanishing

——-

The doctor and the other patients around were greatly suffocated by the intense energy coming from Reif\'s body

They tried to resist it but no matter what they do, the suffocation just wouldn\'t go away even if they want to

The disturbance even causes Rhash to regain a bit of his consciousness. Fortunately, his body was really of great quality

The time that Reif spends to return to the city enabled him to regain consciousness even if it was just a bit

If it was a normal human, that person would surely be comatose for days

While still feeling weak, Rhash tried to raise his hand to touch Reif while also trying to speak

"R-Reif .." Rhash weakly called out causing the other person to unconsciously look at him

"B-Big Brother!"

A little bit of Reif\'s worries vanish as soon as he saw the most important person in his life opening his eyes

The person below him is the only one that matters in his eyes. As long as Rhash is fine, Reif would feel happy and contented

"L-leave!" Rhash forces out that word yet Reif aggressively shook his head in return

"No! Big Brother needs to be treated!" Reif insisted. How can he let his big brother be in this state without doing anything?

"D-danger! C-calm... l-leave!" Rhash insisted with all seriousness. He even forces himself to move again to convey how serious he was to Reif

"P-power... c-calm!" Rhash did his best to make Reif realize the seriousness of this matter before losing consciousness

His words were too broken to even form a complete sentence but Reif still understood it

Rhash wants him to calm himself so that his power would stop rampaging. The people around were already in a pitiful state and if this goes on, things would go in an even wrong direction

Despite the immense anger he was suffering with, Rhash still managed to calm Reif

In Reif\'s eyes, Rhash is a person that he always needs to obey. He cannot go against his wish

Without a choice, Reif forcefully calmed himself before carrying Rhash\'s body in his arms again

Reif gave the doctor one last look, making sure to imprint that face in his mind

The doctor felt like he did the most stupid thing in his life. He can\'t help but feel afraid at how Reif was looking at him

Fortunately, it didn\'t take that long before Reif vanishes. Although his emotions got ahead of him, Reif was still briefed by Rhash

He knows that there are guards in this city, his outburst might have alerted them already and he needs to flee as fast as he can

Since Reif doesn\'t have money with him, he was forced to take Rhash outside the city and spend the night there

——

The next day, Rhash finally woke up. This was mostly because Reif kept feeding him with his blood

It makes his recovery faster than it should be albeit Rhash was still in a weakened state

"Big Brother!"

Rhash only woke up yet he already heard a joyful yet also worried voice. The first person that he saw was his precious jewel on top of hin looking at him with myriads of emotions

"I-I\'m fine, just w-weak" Rhash said to try to reassure the other kid but it wasn\'t that effective

"Big Brother, I\'m sorry! I was weak and helpless!"

This situation is something that Reif is feeling guilty about. If he was powerful enough, Rhash wouldn\'t get ambush

If Reif was careful enough, he wouldn\'t lose their hard-earned money that he can use to pay for medical expenses

If not for that, they would be spending the night inside the comfort of a city and not just stay in a cave

"You won\'t be weak and helpless for long. I promise that to you" Rhash replied while trying to lift his hand to touch Reif\'s face

Reif saw that and he helps his big brother since he also wants to be touch

"How much blood did you make me drink? Look at how pale you become" Rhash said with a sigh

Reif is only starting to get healthy yet he loses too much blood all because of him. Rhash can\'t help but blame himself

"I-it\'s not much!" Reif bluffed to stop Rhash from being worried. However, how can he possibly lie without being found out by Rhash?

That is an almost impossible thing for him currently

"Say that again when you are not as pale as you are now!" Rhash scolded and Reif can only pout his lips

His big brother just woke up but he was reprimanded again. But Reif would choose to receive nagging all day than to see his big brother unconscious for a long time

That thought makes Reif smile a bit causing Rhash to pinch his cheeks

"What are you smiling for? Aside from using too much blood on me, you still have more things you shouldn\'t have done!"

The first thing that pops up in Reif\'s mind was his rampage last night. Fortunately, his power was only starting to surface when Rhash stops him

If not, who knows what would happen. The power hidden inside Reif is certainly otherworldly. However, his body has a limit of how much it can handly

Currently, Reif can only use a bit of it even if his power was going out of his control. He was still far from reaching his peak that Rhash dreamed off

Thus, the authorities can easily capture or even kill him if he were to create a much bigger scene

However, the guards are not the only people that Rhash deemed as a great danger

"Things aren\'t as simple as it seems. There are a lot of hidden dangers in Mesha City" Rhash said with a sigh

"What danger?"

"The City Lord, High-ranking adventurers, strong organizations, and families are the danger in the light. But they are not the most dangerous. The ones hidden in the dark are the most dangerous"

The dangers in the light are easier to deal with and prepare with. However, those in the dark are more troublesome because of their means

"There are a lot of dangers in this world. One of them is even staying inside the Mesha City"

Reif gulps at that. He wants to keep his big brother safe but the more he learned, the more he realizes how hard it was

"W-who are you talking about?"

Rhash takes a deep breath first before speaking the name or more like the title of the most dangerous person inside the Mesha City

"Salamander the Immortal ..."
