From MC's perspective:

Red City- City Lord Mansion,

The City Lord Luton was terrified. The manager was blasted into pieces. There is nothing left of the manager's body parts.

The others who were near the manager collapsed onto the ground. The aftermath has hit them very hard.

Few of them have already coughing up blood. At this moment, none of them dare to raise their head. Only the City Lord can save their life.

What's more dangerous is that the visitor in front of him only used coercion. When he felt the piercing gaze. His entire back was drenched in a cold sweat.

"Lord?" He said. His voice was shaky. He stood up from the seat and walked down below. As a City Lord, he has more knowledge than local people.

The visitors are at least elite-rank warriors.

On the other hand, I controlled my emotions. I don't want to shoot him down before collecting the information.

"Why did you destroy the Hansen academy?"

"Not only that, you have killed Chairman Thornton, teachers, staff, and students."

"What's the reason behind this?" I asked.

Jonathan felt a hint of icy chill in Zack's voice. He doesn't want to interfere. It will only affect the state of the mind.

"Hanson Academy?" Luton uttered in surprise. Then he recalled the events that happened 3 months ago. A lot of destruction and slaughter of those people part of Hansen comes to his mind.

The people who collapsed on the ground are terrified as well. One of them was able to recognize Zack's face.

Looking at the familiar silhouette who was celebrated as a local hero is standing in front of him. He knew the headmaster was going to die.

Back then many people wondered where the courage of the City Lord came from. Everyone knew the student named Zack Lockwood had entered one of the academies in Tier-6 cities.

Not only him, but others were able to slowly recall. The City Lord Luton was unable to connect the dots. His mind was broken because of fear.

"Lord, it was not me. I was forced by someone," City Lord Luton said in a trembling tone. Fear of death has occupied his heart.

Hearing that I asked, "Who?"

I knew a mere City Lord wouldn't have such guts.

Jonathan's eyes gleamed with a twinkle. He wants to be known as a wall. Because the old monsters of the Giant Tower and Eclipse Academy were taken down as well.

"So who is causing this trouble?" Jonathan said in his heart.

The City Lord Luton resigned to his fate. He simply revealed the truth by saying, "Parazam Hunter League."

Hearing that my expression changes drastically. Jonathan's face becomes dignified.

Both of us looked at each other in solemn gaze.

Before I could ask further, Jonathan flashes and appears before the City Lord. He began to do a soul search.

Scream!

A terrifying scream resounded in the hall.

Those who have collapsed on the ground are shivering in fear. Who doesn't know about the Parazam Hunter League? It is paradise for the Civilian and Rogue Warriors.

Especially for those warriors without any background.

On the other hand, I saw Jonathan's operation and didn't disturb him. I know after hearing that name Jonathan has become serious as well.

A few minutes later,

Pfff!

The City Lord and the rest of them are turned to blood mist. Jonathan didn't feel anything from beginning to end.

Things have come this far. No secrets can be allowed to leak.

Swish!

In the blink of an eye, we appeared in mid-air. Then we started moving towards the White Snow City.

On the way, Jonathan couldn't help but say, "The destruction of the Hansen Academy was not simple. It might be a calculated one."

Hearing that a deep chill flashes in my eyes.

"Parazam Hunter League is different from the academy system. They have their power. Like the Academy, there is a Hunter League in the inner post as well."

"Which also controls important resources in all outer posts. From time to time, rare and important resources appear in some outer posts. Those were quickly plundered by the Parazam Hunter League"

"They were then sent to the main branch. So we need to investigate who is behind this act," Jonathan said.

But my mind is something else.

"Jonathan, what about my family?" I asked.

Jonathan's eyes flickered before saying, "They are safe. Because your uncle is a member of the Army Federation. The inner post also has a Federation."

"So the local league won't dare to touch your family. It's just a pity, the Hansen Academy had you as a baker."

"But your backing is not enough to shake a branch which is the Parazam Hunter League."

"And forget about the big tree that operates in the Inner post," Jonathan added.

At the same time, he noticed the expression of Zack. He also lied about the family. He didn't want to cause any psychological burden.

But the issue has come to this. So he thought it was time for Zack to know the difference in strength.

On the other hand, various thoughts flash in my mind. I was careless. I should have maintained contact with the Hansen Academy.

They must have felt helpless during their struggle.

"Sigh"

Jonathan signed. He decided to reveal a few truths as well.

"The City Lord and his troops were not alone in destroying the Hansen Academy," Jonathan said.

Hearing that I turned towards him.

Jonathan looked into my eyes and said, "From the City Lord's memory, I saw the remnants of Crimson Hall. They took part as well."

"Crimson Hall?" I gritted my teeth in anger.

I should have eliminated the roots. I didn't expect them to have the guts to do this act. In the end, they took the advantage.

"Don't worry, we will find their whereabouts. In that way, you can vent your anger," Jonathan said.

Hearing that I nodded my head. As Jonathan said, I don't have the power to shake the branch or tree. But I can weed out the grasses on the ground.

"Crimson Hall!"

"Are Ella Downs and Sallie Mills's family part of the remnants?" I asked in my heart.

If they have a part in this act, then I don't mind killing them as well.

Soon, we reached the white snow city. The city was not even half the size of Red City.

In a blink of an eye, I appeared above my home. I felt the pressure of living.

"You go and meet them," Jonathan said.

"What about you?" I asked.

"I'm going to investigate some places. I'll come back later. You can spend time with your uncle" Jonathan said before disappearing from the spot.

What he didn't tell was he had already got the whereabouts of a few remnants from City Lord's memory. Because he had shady dealings with them.

If he had told Zack, he would have followed him.

On the other hand, I landed on the ground and started walking towards the door.

Knock!

After arriving, I knocked on the door. I heard footsteps nearing the door.

Creak!

When the door was opened. I saw a person standing in front of me.

"Uncle James," I said.

James was stunned in disbelief before his old eyes recognized Zack's face.

"Zack you are back," James said in a trembling tone.

"It's been a whole year," James added.

Sigh!

I let out a sigh before saying, "Uncle, there is a big boundary separating the place. Normal communications are hard to establish. And it's difficult to leave the academy as well."

James nodded his head in understanding before greeting him inside.

Walking into the living room, I felt nostalgic. Then suddenly, I started walking towards Granny Park's room.

James' expression is dignified. A hint of worry appeared in his eyes.

When I walked into the room. I saw the room was empty. There is no sign of Granny Park.

A bad premonition hits my heart.

"Where is Granny Park?" I asked Uncle James.

Looking at his sad expression, I feel something bad.

"Zack, you have to control your emotions."

"Ms. Park died a few months ago," James said in a sad tone.

Hearing that my heart was in turmoil.

"How?" I asked.

I knew she was old and weak. But I always thought she had at least a decade to live.

"She died because of sickness. The healer said her heart was weak. A few days after getting treatment, she died in her bed," James said.

Hearing that I don't know how to react. I still remember her fond memories. The memories of the orphanage flooded my mind.

Unknowingly, tears began to stream down. in my face.

James felt sad as well. His eyes become wet.

Meanwhile,

Jonathan is moving towards the nearest big city. Where one of the remnant's family is staying. After destroying the Hansen Academy, people looted the resources there.

The family living there is one of them.

One hour later,

He reached the city. The City is similar to the Red City in size. He looked down on the city from above.

In the blink of an eye, he reached the ground and disguised himself as a local.
