Seoul was one of the biggest and most bustling cities in the world before the integration. It had a population of over 50 million people living in it. More than many entire countries in the world.

This gigantic metropolitan city found itself in a completely different state after the integration. All of its glory came crumbling down along with all of its buildings. Every corner of this god-forsaken city turned into a shade of its past self. The traces of human hands on it turned into mere relics of the past, even though the disaster happened merely a month ago.

The destruction, the smell of death, and the constant tension filling one's body as they walked through it expecting a monster to pop up and decapitate them anytime... It made living in it akin to a nightmare.

Well, for most people it would be a nightmare…

Meanwhile, in the heart of this city, a silhouette could be seen jumping from one place to another excitedly. He appeared like a bunny, hopping very high and landing in one spot before vanishing and reappearing somewhere else.

'Ah, I love this!' As he moved, Talon's eyes were looking around him, scouting the place and memorizing every nook and cranny of it. With each level he gained, Talon's memory slowly got better and better.

Now, he could easily map out an entire area and keep it in his head as if it were nothing.

'For now, all I'm seeing are some monsters scattered here and there.' Talon thought to himself as he landed on top of one of the buildings and stopped to look around him.

"I was going to experiment a little and see what I should do. But…" He murmured as he slowly turned around him. "The entire city seems really empty."

Even after moving around for a good 15 minutes, the young man couldn't find a single group of monsters he would consider dangerous.

There were a few moving on their own, but no hordes of any kind. Normally, he would've thought that it was simply a coincidence or that the monsters moved somewhere else in search of food.

But, not this time, and the reason for that is simple.

"There are monster corpses around."

Here and there, Talon could see dead creatures lying down on the ground, swimming in their own blood. There wasn't one or two but at least a few dozens of them.

'Let's check…' Jumping down from the building, he approached one of them and inspected it.

At first glance, Talon could determine that the monster didn't die in normal circumstances, that was immediately noticeable. Instead, it had a deep, visible laceration in its neck and stomach. Lacerations that only one thing could create.

'Swords… These are sword injuries.' He squinted his eyes seriously.

For a second there, Talon's aura turned completely solemn and his playfulness vanished.

"Humans, huh… Well, I guess this should be expected. You aren't alone in this city." Acrypha said.

"Yeah. I already knew that other survivors were roaming the city. But, the more important question is, are they friendly or hostile?" Standing up slowly with a sigh, Talon contemplated that question.

So far, all the survivors he met were friendly and cooperative. They didn't have any malicious intent toward him and he was glad that was the case. But, Talon knew for certain that not everyone was like that.

Humans were morally grey creatures. They can be as good and honorable as they can be bad and twisted. In modern society, that darker side gets pushed back with laws, but when those laws vanish, that darker side has no restraints anymore and so it resurfaces again.

"You should be careful moving now," Acrypha added.

Unsheathing his spear, Talon turned around and started moving again, more carefully this time. He still had a few more areas to check before he could return to the campus.

So, for the next 15 minutes or so, Talon slowly made his way to every street while keeping his senses alert for any abnormalities.

As he was walking, he heard a loud noise coming from a little farther away.

"Hm?" Squinting his eyes, he halted for a moment and listened.

"....!!!"

"What am I hearing?"

The noises were incoherent for him even with his sharp ears. So, instead of waiting there, Talon decided to go and check for himself. Climbing one of the buildings, he sneakily moved toward the source of the noise.

The more he got closer to the noise, the more it started making sense to him. At some point, Talon realized that what he was hearing wasn't just noise… They were screams.

As soon as he landed on the last building, Talon found what he was looking for.

"..." His eyes squinted coldly while he silently watched what was ensuing.

"Please… No!! I swear!! I didn't!!!"

"Shut up, bitch!"

*SLAP*

Down on the ground, a group of men surrounded one single woman. They were carrying weapons in their hands and wearing rough armor.

The woman, on the other hand, was barely wearing any clothes. She had numerous injuries on her body. Her face was bloodied beyond recognition and tears rolled endlessly from her eyes.

She looked completely wretched as if she had been brutally tortured not that long ago.

"You did do it. Trying to stab the boss while he was asleep? You have some guts on you, whore." One of the men said with a malicious grin on his face.

"I really didn't do it!! I swear! Please believe me! This is a huge misunderstanding!"

"Pfft, hahahaha! Is this woman completely stupid? The boss saw you with a knife in your hand." Another replied.

"That wasn't…" The woman fumbled on her words as she found herself unable to even speak. Instead, she slowly tried to crawl toward one of the men. "Please, sir! It's hell!! Being with him is hell on earth! I couldn't keep living like that!

It was either us or him!"

As she was about to grab his leg, the man pulled it back before he kicked her hard in the face, sending her stumbling back.

"UGH!!" Blood splattered out of the woman's mouth as she shrieked.

"The audacity to say these words. The boss had given you women a place to live, food, warmth, hell, he even gave you beauty products that we had to put our lives on the line to get, and yet, you're still insulting him and trying to kill him? Are you stupid?"

"He is a monster!"

*SLAP*

"Ugh!"

"It's pointless to speak to her. The boss told us to get rid of her, so we might as well get it over with."

"NOO!!"

"Grab her!"

Immediately, the men surrounded her and grabbed her arms as they lifted her up.

"Please, *hick*, spare me…" She whimpered weakly as the last man stood in front of her and aimed his sword at her neck.

Then, he silently raised the sword before slashing down. At that moment, out of nowhere, a silhouette appeared next to the man.

*SWISH* *CRACK*

Tightening his fist, Talon sent a flying punch to the man's jaw with great force. The hit twisted the man's entire neck before it blasted him away like a ragdoll. Nobody reacted in time to what just happened.

'One down.' With a cold look on his face, Talon dashed to the second one at top speed before he delivered a palm strike to his solar plexus.

"BLURGH!!" The man spat out a huge mouthful of blood as he fell down, unable to breathe.

Then, in quick succession, Talon elbowed the third one, destroying all the bones in his face as if they were made out of fragile biscuits, and then kicked the last one on the side, pulverizing his ribs.

The entire time, the woman had her eyes closed as she waited for her inevitable death. She waited for a few seconds and yet nothing happened. But, when she heard the groans and whimpers, she slowly opened them again only to be met with a shocking site.

The three men… were all down on the ground.

"Wha…"

"Are you ok, miss?"

Then, she heard a cold and yet soothing voice speaking to her. Turning around, she saw a handsome young man crouching next to her with his hand extended forward.

"..." Blinking silently, she stared at him for a while before she opened her mouth. "When did you…"

"It's irrelevant where I came from. I saw that you were about to get killed and so I jumped in to help." Talon said as he looked around him.

"... Thank you…" The woman replied in a flabbergasted tone.

'I didn't feel anything before he appeared… And yet, he beat them instantly… How strong is he?'

Even though she should've been crying with happiness that she was saved, the shock from what happened overwhelmed her even more.

'She seems to be still in shock.' Just with a small glance at her condition, Talon's expression grew darker. 'What kind of monster did this to her?'

Almost all the visible parts of her body were either bruised, injured, or both. Her skin was almost blue from the cold weather and she had multiple fractures across her ribs, arms, and even hips.

"Ouch!"

"Here, let me help you," Talon said as he put his hand on her back before he easily picked her up.

"Tell me if you feel any pain. I'm going to bring you back to a safer place."

The woman simply looked at him silently, almost in a daze before she faintly nodded her head.

"Good."

Seeing that she wasn't too uncomfortable, Talon started walking back to the campus while keeping his senses alert. He wasn't sure if those were the only men that were there so he was cautious not to lead anyone of them back to where they were.
