"What a big gate!" Sofia said with her mouth wide open.

"Here we come! Wait for us bitches!" Fein had a wide grin on his face.

With that, the massive gate opened and made a loud creaking sound. The light penetrated the gaps that dazzled Fein and his group, causing them to cover their eyes.

Fein felt the ground rumble along with his body. 'Damn, what's the purpose of this gate? Can't they just make a small one?'

After all, only humans pass through it, right? Why make such a huge gate? For what purpose?

After a few minutes, the gate was finally fully open. When Fein and Sofia set their sight outside the massive gate, they saw an endless plane with no people in sight. The soil outside had cracks, and it looked a lot drier.

"Well, is this the East?" Sofia said with a disappointed expression.

Seeing this, the long-haired man coughed a little and then smiled. "This is just the border of the East. What you see might not be that great because near the border is only a large plain. It is estimated that it would be two hundred miles before you would be able to encounter the first country."

Hearing this, Fein turned his attention to the other party, who seems to know a lot. Since it was their first time to the East, then they had to inquire about information. The more they knew about the place, the better.

"What's your name again?" Fein asked.

The long-haired man smiled. "Sorry for not introducing myself earlier. My name is Mugetsu Urihara, an A-ranked degu user, and the captain of the protection unit in this kingdom. In the degu society, they call me Mugetsu of the Wind!"

"Well, a good name..." Fein nodded. "Mugetsu of the Wind? So your power is related to the Wind??"

"Yeah, you can think of it that way." Mugetsu smiled, albeit a little awkwardq. "But the true reason is, the wind is always by my side. It guides me..."

'Wind is always by his side? What the fuck does that even mean? Aren't we all surrounded by the wind all the time?' Fein held himself back from laughing at the funny title the other party has.

Sofia, on the other hand, had a weird expression on her face. "Mugetsu of the Wind? I think I heard that name once."

"Well, it's just your imagination. I'm not that popular."

'Let me see why you are called Mugetsu of the Wind, then.' Fein used his probe on Mugetsu Urihara.

After a while, a familiar ding rang in his ears, and Mugetsu's interface appeared in his eyes like a projection.

'Well, now I know why he was called Mugetsu of the Wind.' Fein thought speechlessly.

Fein coughed a little. "Mugetsu, can you tell me more about the East? And you know a country called Migoyami in the East?"

Mugetsu held his chin thoughtfully. After a few minutes, he looked at his fellow guards and says. "You can go back to your respective positions. I'll entertain our guest."

"Yes, captain!" The guards shouted and left one after another.

"Since they already left, then let me tell you..." Mugetsu walked outside of the gate. "Follow me."

Fein and Sofia looked at each other and nodded. Fein rode on Voli's back, while Sofia rode on Aoi's. Then they followed Mugetsu, who was already outside of the gate.

As they passed through the gate and took their first step on the land of the East, Fein felt the temperature increase, and he started to sweat after just a few seconds.

"Hot isn't it? Welcome to the East! Where the works overtime."

Fein heard Mugetsu's voice. He couldn't help but agree with the latter's sentence because the weather was just too hot. Fortunately, they had a portable air conditioner with them.

"Aoi, you know what to do, right?" Fein wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Suddenly, Mugetsu, Fein, Sofia, and Voli felt a cold air wrap around their bodies and permeate the surrounding area.

"Done," Aoi said proudly.

Mugetsu suddenly looked at Aoi in shock. 'This bird can talk? What the fuck??'

It was the first time that he witnessed a beast that could talk and he didn't know how to make anything out of it. After all, it was well known that only S-rank beasts or those Legendary Beasts had the ability to speak. What does this mean? The purple, beautiful bird in front of him was either a legendary one or an S-rank beast!

'As expected of Lord Fein.' Mugetsu looked at Fein with awe. Then he turned his head at Voli. 'Perhaps this one can also speak?'

"Fucker! Why are you looking at me?" Voli cursed with his childlike voice.

Mugetsu blinked twice and wondered if he heard it wrong. 'Such a cute face but has a vulgar mouth.

'Damn, this Voli...' Fein's mouth twitched slightly. "Forgive my companion's behavior."

"It's okay." Mugetsu had a look of understanding on his face. 'So Legendary Beast had their unique traits, and this one seems to be moody?'

'What did you understand!?' Fein was speechless as he saw Mugetsu's look of enlightenment.

"Well, enough of this. Just tell me about the East and the country of Migoyami..." Fein immediately changed the topic before it strays too far.

"Forgive me for being distracted." Mugetsu scratched his head before he cleared his throat. Then his face became serious.

Sofia, Aoi, and Fein quickly perked up their ears. Voli, on the other hand, just yawned with teary eyes.

"The East is also known as the region that claimed to have the upper hand in terms of strength amongst the five. Well, the East has thirty-five S-rank degu users in their minds. They are only short of eight before they could reach the total number of S rank of the Central Plains. The East is a region which promotes in-breeding as they value the blood more than anything else." Mugetsu began to introduce the East with an unhurried tone."Next, let me tell you the major forces in this region and some facts about it."
