Meeting a Friend

Abandoned House, Front Yard.

Ren was consuming soup alone.

In his previous life, he learned how to cook from an amazing chef, so he could make many delicious foods.

'I will hunt magical beast after this.'

As he was enjoying his soup, a voice rang out.

"Is that you, Ren?" a voice belonging to a young man reverberated in the front yard.

Ren, who was holding his bowl, turned his head toward the source of the sound.

'Hmm?'

He saw a young man in his early twenties.

The young man had red hair and blue eyes.

He wore brown leather armor and silver gauntlets.

Right after Ren caught sight of the young man, several memories popped into his mind.

'I see. So, he is my predecessor's friend, huh?'

Ren finally knew the identity of the young man.

His name was Liam Hayes.

He was Elite rank awakener from the same town as him, Verneau Town.

Ren and Liam were the most popular young men in Verneau Town.
