Wendy guffawed and said, “It turns out the Great Marshal is someone who resorts to anything and everything just
to achieve his goal, huh? You don't deserve to be regarded highly by others!”
Come again?
Sole Wolf stomped his way to the party of four and yelled, “Zeke, allow me to send them to hell. We don't need to
waste our time with them.”
Staring at Wendy, Zeke commented with a grin, “Just take it easy because they're as good as dead. Now, why don't
you surrender yourself? One way or another, I'm going to beat all of you up and force all of you into submission.”
Sneering, Wendy repeated herself in a determined tone, “As a member of Kush Clan, there's no way we're going to
surrender! We're going to fight until our last breath!”

“Is that an attempt to make fun of us? It's an insult to compare those inferior ones against the members of Kush
Clan!”
Zeke frowned at the presence of another mysterious force when he had always thought Wendy was a member of
the Netherworld.
He suddenly recalled his conversation with the hermit at Minor Thunderclap Monastery. The hermit reminded him it
was necessary to carry oneself humbly against the unknowns.
Seconds after he snapped out of his thoughts, he asked, “Does the clan have anything to do with Kush Mountain?”
“Of course!”
“Have you met a man with the name of Pietro?”
“Pietro? Is that a person's name? That's such a funny name!”
The rest of Wendy's party fell into a discussion. “Is he talking about the man with grey hair?”
Wendy linked the missing pieces of puzzles together and queried, “Are you telling me you're the mentee of that
freak? I guess everything makes sense since you're also a freak!”
Zeke got increasingly worked up when he found out they were familiar with the man he had been searching for all
this while.
He asked, “W-Where is he? What is he doing at Mount Kush?”
“What else could it be apart from messing with members of Kush Clan? Thankfully, he's no longer in his prime! As
of now, I think he's on the verge of dying! A few days is all it's going to take until he dies!”
Zeke felt his heart aching. He couldn't even imagine the sort of thing the almighty man had to brace himself

He could barely suppress the urge to travel his way to the man's rescue at Mount Kush.
Seconds after he returned to his senses, he asked, “Correct me if I'm wrong, but all of these are attempts to stop
me from going to Mount Kush, isn't it? Why are you doing this, anyway?”
Wendy answered with her head held high, “Isn't it obvious? Only members superior to the rest, such as members of
Kush Clan, are allowed to be there! We're there to serve the one and only supreme leader! Mortals such as you
have no right to be there!”
“If that's the case, what about the members of the Netherworld? They're not allowed to be there as well, are they?”
“Isn't it obvious? No! We're going to kill whoever tries to set foot there without our consent!”
Zeke had his doubts and thought members of the Kush Clan were up to something nasty. If not, why would they try
so hard to keep others off Mount Kush.
He warned, “You don't get to stop any of us since it's one of the nation's many reserves! I'll make a trip to Mount
Kush and kill whoever tries to get in my way!”
