The Village of Death

For the next period, Sterl followed a small team in their exploration of the wilderness.

Along the way, they encountered numerous wild beasts. Sterl, not wanting to reveal his true strength, made only casual efforts.

He conjured a Blade of the Stars, transforming it into the less commonly used form of a long spear, and dealt with level 20-30 wild beasts as if he were slicing through vegetables.

This somewhat changed the adventure team's perception of Sterl... The newcomer, who seemed like a complete novice, actually had some decent skills.

As a result, the atmosphere within the team eased considerably.

"Philip Waldo, I see you're a solo player. How about you join us on a permanent basis?"

 "Yeah, our team could really use a warrior, couldn't it?"

"Philip, you've got some skills!"

The players in the adventure team even started joking around.
