Chapter 213: Chapter 212 Mysterious Voyager
Outside Inn.
As the headquarters of the Fire Mist Warriors, it was as tranquil as ever. However, unlike before, every person or Fire Mist Warrior coming and going wore a grave expression on their face.
The Followers of the Crimson Realm had recently intensified their attacks on the outside inns around the world, and from the existing information, it could be inferred that the most powerful organization among them, “Masquerade Ball,” was taking action. Although their exact intentions remained unknown, it was evident that these fellows were certainly hiding some sort of conspiracy.
For the Fire Mist Warriors, dealing with such matters was part of their daily routine, but now, amid this stream, a different kind of intelligence was causing ripples.
“Hey, have you heard? About that thing…”
“Voyager…”
...
The nun gazing at the intelligence in her hands sank into a deep silence. She was none other than Sophie Sabelishu, known as the “Hand of Trembling Might” among the Fire Mist Warriors and also the Commander of the Outside Inn located at the front lines. And now, causing her to furrow her brows was this piece of intelligence that had just been relayed from the rear.
It documented the sudden appearance of two mysterious individuals over the past month.
One was a Follower of the Crimson Realm, and the other was… a human.
Without a doubt, this combination easily reminded people of the long-famous “Convenanted Duo.” However, these two were fundamentally different from the “Convenanted Duo.”
Within the “Convenanted Duo,” John was once human but transformed himself into a “Mistis” to spend his life with Phyllis, the Demon King of the Crimson Realm, and also created the Secret Treasure “Zero Hour Resurgence.” It could be said that, at that time, he was no longer purely human.
But this man was different from John. According to reports from Fire Mist Warriors who had encountered him, he was still human and had always been human. Moreover, contrary to what people imagined—where Followers of the Crimson Realm enslaved humans—the situation with these two indicated that the Follower of the Crimson Realm seemed more reliant on that human male.
If that were all, it would have been nothing more than casual gossip for the Fire Mist Warriors. However, the issue was that the actions of these two people were not as simplistic as everyone thought.
Unlike the “Convenanted Duo,” who did not get involved with other Fire Mist Warriors or Followers of the Crimson Realm and just reveled in their own sweet world, these two seemed to be traveling aimlessly, but their actions were quite aggressive.
If they saw a Follower of the Crimson Realm that consumed humans and there were no Fire Mist Warriors nearby, they would immediately act to annihilate it.
However, if there were Fire Mist Warriors around, they would just stand by and watch.
But this did not mean the two were pushovers, for if a Fire Mist Warrior dared to attack them, they would immediately face a ruthless counter-attack.
Naturally, anyone encountering such a situation could only blame themselves for their bad luck. Yet the problem was that these two were not just hunting Followers of the Crimson Realm.
They would also strike at Fire Mist Warriors.
Since their appearance, they had already consecutively eliminated no less than a dozen Followers of the Crimson Realm, as well as four or five Fire Mist Warriors. Sometimes, they would even help Followers of the Crimson Realm escape the pursuit and capture of Fire Mist Warriors. This baffled everyone, as they could not fathom what the two were truly after.
And for this reason, they were called “Voyagers” by both the Fire Mist Warriors and the Followers of the Crimson Realm.

But Sister Sophie thought differently.
“Commander, is that the intelligence on the ‘Voyagers’?”
Standing in front of the desk, a young man carrying a large pot on his back glanced curiously at the intelligence in Sophie’s hands and then asked. Hearing his question, Sophie nodded.
“I had the Outside Inn collect and organize verifiable combat records of the ‘Voyagers,’ and I discovered some issues, look…”
While speaking, the nun placed the intelligence on the desk and then reached out, pointing to a list within it.
“This is a list of the Followers of the Crimson Realm defeated and eradicated by the ‘Voyagers.’
“… ‘Gnawing Mob’ Searah, ‘Wrath of the Wild’ Dunster… these are very dangerous Followers of the Crimson Realm.”
Looking at the names above, the young man was shocked. He had also heard rumors about the “Voyagers” from the Fire Mist Warriors before, but at the time, the Fire Mist Warriors were also focused on the question of “why would a human being wander around with a Follower of the Crimson Realm,” and thus they neglected their combat strength. But now, after seeing this list, the young man realized just how terrifying the strength of these two was. The Followers of the Crimson Realm they had eliminated were all infamously vicious in this world, not only brutal and fond of devouring humans but also exceptionally strong in battle. It could even be said that of the Crimson Realm fiends listed, there were a few whom even the Fire Mist Warriors might not be able to easily guarantee victory against.
“That’s right, and then, this is the list of Fire Mist Warriors they’ve slain.”
“…… ‘Blade of Killing Intent’ Chris, ‘Dawn of a Thousand Armies’ Sena…… wait, are these not all……”
“Yes.”
Looking at the young man before her, who showed a surprised expression, Sophie nodded her head. She, of course, understood why the other party was so astonished. Although it’s said that Fire Mist Warriors are there to protect the world’s balance, after all, most of the Fire Mist Warriors initially joined for vengeance. Therefore, there are many Fire Mist Warriors who wouldn’t hesitate to engage in fierce battles to eliminate Followers of the Crimson Realm, regardless of collateral damage. These individuals could also be considered the “thorns” within the “Fire Mist Warriors.”
And now, a part of them had ended up on the death list before them.
“……Could it be that……”
Seeing this, the young man’s inner thoughts began to vaguely form some ideas. He continued to look at the list of Fire Mist Warriors and Followers of the Crimson Realm that the others were protecting… and sure enough, unlike the “death list,” most of the Fire Mist Warriors and Followers of the Crimson Realm on this “protection list” were diligent and honest. Either they were dedicated to protecting humans, or they were the kind who hardly caused trouble and didn’t eat people at all.
“This is the report from those Fire Mist Warriors who have met them.”
As she spoke, the nun once again took out a stack of intelligence, helplessly shook her head, and let out a bitter smile. In these reports, the Fire Mist Warriors’ opinions on the “Voyagers” varied greatly. Some were dutiful and went to stop powerful Demon Kings of the Crimson Realm from eating people, only to be nearly killed in the process and saved by the two. These Fire Mist Warriors had very positive and favorable reviews of the two ‘Voyagers.’
However, encounters with some hot-tempered Fire Mist Warriors were just the opposite. Most of them, like Marjorine, believed that all Followers of the Crimson Realm should die, so the moment they spotted one, they would charge into battle, whether the foe was good or bad. These Fire Mist Warriors were invariably given a severe lesson by the two ‘Voyagers,’ beaten until they were nearly crippled. It’s also fortunate that they were Fire Mist Warriors, otherwise they would have probably faced certain death.
Not only that……
“Are they conducting investigations?”
After finishing the reports before him, the young man looked confused, and no wonder he had such an expression, because according to these reports from the Fire Mist Warriors, whether the Voyagers were friend or foe, after the battle ended, they would always ask the Fire Mist Warriors to answer their questions. And these questions were almost always about humans. What’s more, the man seemed to possess a unique method that could directly determine whether you were telling the truth or lying… But overall, they seemed more like researchers conducting some sort of study.
“Looking at it this way, perhaps they conducted similar investigations on the side of the Crimson Realm followers, those that they killed aside……”
“But what… what’s the significance of all this?”
Putting down the report in his hand, the man showed a look of questioning and confusion.
“What exactly are they trying to do by doing this?”
“I don’t know either.”
Facing this question, the nun slowly shook her head, but then, she added a sentence.
“However… according to the information from the external accommodations, they have the ‘Zero Hour Resurgence’ in their hands.”
“You mean to say……”
Upon hearing the nun’s words, the young man’s complexion changed slightly.
“This is a report from the Eastern European division; they seem to plan to snatch the ‘Zero Hour Resurgence’ before Hall of the Star Dawn makes their move. Currently, they are looking for the ‘Voyager’ rumored to possess the ‘Zero Hour Resurgence’…”
“But……”
“I know, but the Eastern European division is quite confident, and now all we can do is hope……”
At this point, the nun sighed.
“We can only hope… that they don’t start any conflicts.”
