The comfort of using a map hack, following Hwan Baeho’s guidance, they reached their destination quickly.
During the journey, the child hesitantly shared his brief story.
A tiny village that couldn’t even be called a city. Martial artists had invaded and taken away all the villagers.

When asked why he only mentioned his sister when they first met, his answer was,

Seojun licked his lips and patted the child’s back.
Then he carefully examined the crude building Hwan Baeho had discreetly pointed out.
It was halfway up a mountain not far from where they had fought the two Transcendent Realm martial artists. It appeared to be an outpost established to support them.
