Looking at the entire continent, the central area was relatively safe.

  It was also the center of all trade heading to the east-west and north-south and it was within the sphere of influence of the Holy Kingdom which was the strongest nation.

  In addition, the graduates of the Krono Swordsmanship Academy could be casually seen around in the surrounding nations.

  Of course, if someone asked if the central part of the continent was the safest, then that wasn’t the case.

  Normally, if a country was protected from its surrounding territories, and had good transportation paths, it usually meant that there were no problems with regards to safety.

  But that wasn’t always the case. Especially when there was a chance of a surprise attack by groups of bandits targeting merchants when the guards were absent, which resulted in them taking risks, travelling though unused paths to avoid the bandits.

  The Nora bandits were one such group known to have specialized in targeting small merchants and travelers.

  And on one particular day, a middle-aged man came into their sight.

  “Boss, how about that person?”

  Holding the red sword, which was the opposite color of her lover, she stood there, staring at him.

  And she took a deep breath and exhaled.

  Wheik!

  The red-haired swordsman, who turned into a speeding flame, caused a huge explosion.3
