Anyone that met Imperial Sword Rumad would think of him as a giant. He was around two meters tall, with short and messy hair, and an intimidating aura. He wore a glaringly red armor and carried a greatsword. A child would definitely burst into tears at the mere sight of him. This very scary-looking man was one of the ‘Pinnacle Strong Men’ in the continent. Although he was considered to be the weakest out of the eight, he could still easily overwhelm and trample all of the current Rankers.

Rumad was looking at the distant scenery as loud sounds rang loudly from the direction that he was looking at.

Vwooooooong! 

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! 

It was the sound of trumpets and drums. It meant that the target enemy had been found. However, before Ares could make a move, the guild chat popped out with notifications. 

[Guild Chat: Red has been forced to log out.] 

[Guild Chat: Carman has been forced to log out.] 

[Guild Chat: Coso has been forced to log out.] 

The notifications that he never imagined to hear were heard! 

'...What the hell?' 

Ares was quite taken aback. There were five troops led by five players who were supported and backed by the empire in that search team. The average level of the troops was Level 300 and all of the players were between Level 300~600. Red was the leader of the search team. Yet somehow, all of the players sent there were forced to log-out?  This meant that all of the troops had been taken down. 

'What's this? Don't tell...
