� It�s from the Mercenary King!

�Yes, I can see that.�
It was an emergency call from the Mercenary King.

� I�m connecting him!

Ooooooooong-
The video communication device was instantly connected and Cale�s eyes opened wide.

It was black.
He could not see anything.

� Huff, huff. Cale, can you hear me?

It was Bud Illis.

�Yes. I can hear you.�

Cale urgently responded. Bud�s voice sounded different than usual for some reason.

� I�m relieved. I can only talk to you because it is in my pocket right now.

The reason the screen was black was because the video communication device was in his pocket. However, Cale�s face stiffened even more after learning why the screen was black.

It was because he heard screams and explosions as Bud continued to talk.
Cale�s gaze started to sink.

��What�s going on?�

Bud must have been running as he was huffing as he responded.

� The entire mountain was under an illusion.

�What?�

� Now that the illusion is gone, the entire mountain is covered in enemies. And- mm!

As he heard Bud take a breath�

Clang!
He heard the sounds of swords clashing.

� Shit! Ugh!
