Several hours later, outside the ancient ruins, over a hundred Contractors moved into the site, dressed in various ways, some in suits, others in leather armor.
A Mage Lord walked at the forefront of the Contractors. He was the Fire Mage who had vied with Su Xiao for the "Holy Oak Tree Trunk."
The Fire Mage's name was Yan Chen, which was his real name, not a nickname or alias.
For Yan Chen, there was no need to use a fake name. Most Contractors use aliases to avoid being recognized in the real world and potentially putting their families or friends in danger.
Yan Chen was different; he had no family. His family was mostly dead, killed by his own hands, except for his younger sister, whom he didn't kill.
When Yan Chen killed his own kin, he only felt exhilarated. To Yan Chen, they were all strangers, no, they were enemies.
