Few minutes earlier:
A blur of movement— A gust of wind.
The atmosphere was still, eerie silent.
Two figures walked in the forest, the dense forest covered in trees and bushes.
SLASH! SLASH!
With a fine horizontal slash, both the figure cleared their path, cutting all the bushes in their path.
Justice and Greed.
The Rank-2 and Rank-9 heroes made their way in the direction where Hope had dashed off.
"What was he thinking, running off like that?" Justice asked, his tone irritated.
"That guy ran away. I'm one hundred percent sure," he complained again.
Greed didn't respond.
After the five Single Rankers arrived on this continent, they split into two groups to search for the students.
Hope, Justice, and Greed formed one team. Pride and Envy were in the other.
Slash! Slash!
The slashing continued, as they kept on moving forward.
A sudden, overwhelming pressure descended upon them.
DOOOOOOOMMMM!!
"!"
"!"
Their steps hated, they both stood frozen.
