Even the eldest prince, upon hearing the news, walked up to the adventurer, clenched his right fist, and slammed it into his left chest.

"The Empire will not forget your contributions, Mr. Tom."

Perhaps sensing that the name sounded a bit odd, the Crown Prince later changed the other person's title to 'Adventurer'.

"Go forth with courage and confidence, adventurer. We will stand as your strong support outside the Demon Gate, awaiting news of your victory."

At the same time, the knights and all the soldiers in the army led by the First Prince raised their arms in a gesture of profound respect.

Immediately afterwards, the mages with keen eyes turned to the surging, demonic waves.

They began to trace intricate patterns in the air, drawing runes with pulsating light to form magic circles.

These formations emitted a bright light, constantly repelling those ferocious little demons.

The knights raised their shields, their swords enveloped in holy light, and accurately slew those enemies who had survived the magical storm.

They moved in unison, clearing the way for the adventurers and escorting them toward the Demon Gate.

Soon, the knights arrived at the Gate of Demons.

A strong, greasy, and foul odor emanated from the dark doorway, making the knights feel dizzy just standing in front of it.

However, the adventurer was fearless; he passed through the knights and resolutely stepped into the demon's gate.

His body was immediately half swallowed up by the pitch-black space.

They didn't even look back, as if they had no attachment to this world.

Although many people do not believe that this adventurer, who seems to be only slightly stronger than an average person, can succeed.

After all, even the second-tier knights and third-tier warriors in their team didn't dare to enter rashly, let alone an ordinary person.

Fourth-tier combat power was not considered because protecting these strong individuals is more important to the team than ever.

Aside from helping the team clear out monsters when expanding into new areas, they can only step forward in times of crisis.

The team would absolutely not allow a fourth-tier expert to easily risk entering such a dangerous and unknown area.

After all, given the current scarcity of combat power, losing any one of them would be a major blow to the team.

Not to mention he's a fourth-tier powerhouse.

This is a risk they cannot afford to take.

Thinking of this, many knights couldn't help but recall their Grand Knight Commander Gwen.

Knight Commander Gwen is not present; she appears to have gone on a solo mission.

But as mentioned before, she would return when the team reached the central district.

If Commander Gwen were here, she might disregard all danger and step into the Demon Gate alone.

Thinking of this, many knights felt boundless admiration for this adventurer.

Even if he wasn't very strong, his courage to enter the Demon Gate and save everyone was commendable.

At that moment, everyone in the group watched as the adventurer finally merged into the Demon Gate.

As the Demon Gate trembled slightly, everyone present heard a chaotic and low, cunning laugh.

Just hearing it gave people goosebumps.

At the same time, they could no longer sense the presence of the adventurer from before.

Everyone stood some distance away from the Demon Gate.

They continuously cleared away the small demons overflowing from inside the Demon Gate to prevent these hideous monsters from leaking into the rest of the city.

No one knows whether that weak adventurer died inside the Demon Gate and never returned.

[The Gate of Demons]

Suitable for levels: Lv10-Lv20

...

On the streets of Dongcheng District.

Gwen, clad in white armor, rode a white horse with flowing mane, galloping through the deserted streets.

His eyes kept scanning both sides of the street, as if searching for some hidden figure.

Soon, she suddenly pulled on the reins, causing the horse to come to a slow stop at a street corner.

The surrounding streets were quiet and desolate, devoid of any life.

Her face was cold and expressionless; she simply lowered her head slightly, her brows furrowed, a hint of disappointment in her expression.

She was certain that she had sensed Victor's presence right here.

However, Viktor was nowhere to be seen.

Yes,

Gwen really wanted to confront Victor.

Was Victor involved in that horrific incident that took her sister Kefla's life that year?

But since that incident, Viktor seemed to have vanished from the capital and even the entire empire.

No one could find his whereabouts, nor could anyone send him any news.

Gwen tried to visit Leah several times, but she also came up empty-handed.

Seeing Leah's increasingly haggard face, Gwen couldn't be sure if it was because she was feeling down about Victor's disappearance.

Although the Clevner family has never given up searching for Victor over the years,

Leah repeatedly asked Leon to gather information about Victor, and she inquired with various information brokers and merchants.

But the result was always the same: no clues.

Since she couldn't sense Viktor's presence here, Gwen decided to leave.

Just as Gwen was about to lead the horses out of the alley,

Suddenly, several zombie-like figures, seemingly possessed by desire, appeared at the end of the street and slowly walked towards her.

Upon seeing these strange figures, Gwen immediately became alert.

Her hands naturally rested on her waist, gripping the sword hilt tightly.

Gwen was confident she could decapitate these people in an instant should they show any sign of aggression.
