Frostfang, clad in black robes, moved with light steps through the mountain forest, closely followed by the other members of her squad. Ever since she had successfully captured Lěng Yè and brought him back to headquarters, she had felt an unprecedented sense of achievement. This drove her to focus even more intensely on improving her own strength, vowing to become a pillar in protecting world order. By now, she had successfully broken through to the Profound Realm 3rd Layer, becoming the youngest B-rank squad leader in the history of the Enforcers.
At first, she had believed Lěng Yè to be a rare genius capable of posing a threat to her. After all, very few people reached the Profound Realm at such a young age. However, ever since Lěng Yè was brought to justice and subjected to the Enforcers' rigorous interrogation, this former rival had turned into a coward who did nothing but beg for mercy. In her eyes, he no longer posed any threat; instead, he had become a laughingstock.
"Back in the island nation, I thought Lěng Yè was at least someone with guts, ignoring the Enforcers' rules just to have a clear conscience. But the moment he was dragged to Enforcer headquarters, he turned into a pathetic worm begging everyone for mercy."
