I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

"Your previous owner?"

Anno frowned.

After subduing Sasser, Anno didn't ask her about her previous life.

This was Anno's mistake.

She hadn't expected that Sassi's previous master was a nobleman.

"Master, how about we turn back and fight them?"

An excited glint flashed in Liz's eyes.

She was eager to test her current abilities in real combat.

However, Anno did not agree and instead asked Sassi to speed up.

"I just checked, and there are three mid-level professionals among the soldiers in the back group, at levels 23, 25, and 26!"

"There's a fifth-tier expert!"

Liz immediately deflated upon hearing this, then angrily retorted to Sasser, "Sasser, why didn't you say so sooner? Are you trying to harm our master?"

If it's a fourth-tier fighter, they can still fight.

However, if a fifth-tier expert also possesses fifth-tier skills, then everyone will be in trouble.

The likelihood that a fifth-tier soldier who could become a guard for a noble's son is extremely high, given that he possesses fifth-tier skills.

They had just eaten in Hull City, which meant they were right under each other's noses.

If Sassi had confessed beforehand, Anno certainly wouldn't have entered Hel City, nor would he have been discovered.

It seems that I was just lucky to escape detection in Hel last time.

"I...I didn't!"

While dodging attacks from behind, Sasser gasped for breath and replied, sounding aggrieved, "I...I just forgot about it!"

Anno's brows were almost furrowed together.

If Sasser hadn't run at full speed, she would have been much faster.

The soldiers behind them have probably caught up.

"Let's put this aside for now and talk about it later. Sasser, hurry up and get into that forest over there!"

Sasser nodded, quickened her pace again, and soon plunged into the forest.

"Miss, we shouldn't have attacked before we had completed the encirclement! Now we've alerted them, and they're too fast for us to catch up!"

The fifth-tier soldier beside Sally watched Anno and his group disappear into the forest and sighed.

"Are you telling me how to do things?" Sally turned and glared at the soldier, angrily saying, "Aren't you a fifth-tier soldier? Why can't you catch up?"

"I...I may be a fifth-tier cultivator, but I'm still a human being!"

The fifth-tier soldier replied with a slight headache, "In this vast terrain, once a fourth-tier magical beast starts running, I really can't catch up."

"You..." Sally's shoulders trembled with anger upon hearing the explanation. "Now that they're in the forest, their speed must have slowed down!"

"Although it will descend, the visibility in the woods is not good enough, and tracking it will depend on luck!" the fifth-tier soldier explained. "However, we can only try for now."

As he spoke, he ordered two fourth-tier soldiers to lead a group of soldiers to the front, while he himself stayed by Sally's side to protect her.

Protecting Sally is a higher priority than tracking down the wolf.

In this desolate wilderness, he was genuinely afraid something might happen to Sally.

However, the soldiers searched until nightfall but still couldn't find Anno.

The trail left by the Silver Moon Blood Wolf ended at a place that appeared to be a goblin's lair.

"Go back, gather information on that guy, and then issue a city-wide warrant for his arrest!"

"You don't need to come back with us. Go directly to the capital to find my brother. Tell him about the situation here and ask him to help me find that person too!"

After giving orders to a third-tier soldier, Sally stood outside the forest, looking up at the night sky, clutching a demon-sealing crystal tightly in her hand. Her face darkened, and she said, "Damn you! Whoever you are, I will find you!"

Forbidden Forest!

Adventurer's Home.

Several adventurers are sorting out the recent guild affairs.

Now that the guild has grown, these people are extremely busy every day.

Suddenly, the group heard a gasp of surprise coming from the hall where the teleportation array was located.

The three exchanged a glance, immediately dropped what they were doing, and ran toward the hall.

Then they saw a person, a giant wolf, and a familiar succubus.

"Lady Liz, what are you doing here? Where is the student council president?"

The three adventurers staying at the Adventurers' House were all Anno's trusted confidants.

They had fought alongside Liz before, so they were familiar with each other.

However, the giant wolf beside Liz and the unfamiliar man left the three of them somewhat confused.

"I'm here!"

Anno changed out of his disguise and regained his handsome appearance.

"President!"

Upon seeing that the other party was Anno, the adventurers showed expressions of surprise.

With Liz around, they didn't doubt Anno's identity.

After all, those who can use the teleportation array are all on our side.

Although Anno had shaken off the pursuers from Hel City, he was still somewhat worried that they might discover the unusual nature of the Heritage Church and then keep watch there.

"Forget it, I don't plan to go to the royal city anytime soon anyway, I'll focus on training first. As for Lance's mission, I'll deal with that after I learn the summoner skills!"

Anno led Liz and the still bewildered Sassi out of the hall, found a chair outside, and asked one of the adventurers, "Gri, has anything major happened in Val'kam lately?"

When Gerry heard Anno call his name, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

He hadn't expected that Anno would remember his name so clearly.

However, before answering, Gerry asked suspiciously, "Doesn't the student council president know?"

"Hmm?" Anno sensed something unusual in Gerry's tone and asked, "Should I know?"

"Master, it's like this!" Gerry explained, "Rumors are circulating that you have successfully subdued the dragon and are hiding in the Aiur Mountains!"

"How could such a rumor have arisen?"

Anno was somewhat curious.

Although he told the public that he had gone to hunt dragons.

However, he himself has been wandering around the West and North, and has never appeared in the South.

How could news have spread that he successfully subdued the dragon?

Seeing that Anno seemed genuinely unaware, Gerry also sensed that something was wrong.

Then he began to talk about it.

With the failed attempt to hunt the red dragon in Sunset Lands, news spread that the red dragon had fled south.

More and more professionals and mercenaries are gathering in the southern border.

You can even see mercenaries from other countries, as well as races such as elves and dwarves in Val'kam!

Everyone is searching for the red dragon.

However, not long ago, many professionals in the Aiur Mountains spotted the red dragon and discovered a succubus on it.

Normally, people would just find this strange.

Succubi are not exactly rare creatures.

When we were guarding Val'kam, we killed some succubi and zombies.

But when a priest from the capital spread the news that there was a succubus by the side of the Adventurers' Guild leader.

Everyone speculated that the red dragon had been subdued by the leader of the Adventurers' Guild.

This wouldn't have been a big deal before!

Adventurers would even praise Anno.

However, a month ago, Smedley, a sixth-rank priest of the Holy Church, joined forces with five other organizations to issue a legendary quest—to find the leader of the Adventurers' Guild!

A reward of one million!

Any adventurer can accept this quest.

Providing clues can also earn you a reward.

Therefore, the professionals who gathered in the southern region registered as adventurers and began to venture deep into the Aier Mountains in search of Anno's whereabouts.
