A man stepped onto the platform, placing himself above everyone gathered below.
He appeared to be in his thirties, with neatly combed short silver hair and luxurious white garments adorned with golden embroidery and chains.
With silver eyes and a confident smile, he surveyed the hunters assembled before him, along with the common people who had gathered to witness the occasion.
Behind him marched a company of Silver Knights.
They were the very same knights who had been waiting for Ethan when he emerged from the Legacy dungeon.
Every one of them appeared exceptionally powerful. Even the weakest among them had likely reached Ethan's rank, while the strongest stepped forward and ascended the platform, taking his place beside the silver-haired man, just one step below him.
Clad in a full suit of silver armor, the knight possessed a heavy, imposing presence that Ethan recognized immediately.
It was the Silver Knight, Gass of Wistoria.
The commander of the Royal Guard.
