Chapter 16:The Gilded Tyrant
Fortunately he had survived, but even so, his body was in tatters.
If it weren’t for the effects of 「A Valtier’s Pride (S)」, which refused to let him be humiliated publicly, he would have collapsed right there on the training ground.

They were simply too far.

Each year at Nexus Slayer Academy had its own head, and each head had a private office.

He had to make it.
Licht moved. Every step he took felt like he was dragging a corpse, and after just a few minutes of walking, his vision was already beginning to blur.
