"What's going on here?" A bulky man with huge build walked towards me.

He had maroon hair, black eyes, was about 7 feet tall, appeared to be in his mid-twenties, and was dressed in a black blazer, black pant, and red shirt with the top four buttons unbuttoned.

"... Who are you?" I asked calmly.

'how did he get here?'

"He is the guild master of the Hell Fury Guild!" Elise answered, glaring at Matthew Smith.

"Ho! If it isn't weakli.." Matthew smiled smugly at Elise and began to say something... which was Irrelevant to me.

'Why? Why is he acting like he did something great? And what's with that face in front of a merciless slaughter?'

"Why? This weakling?" I looked at Matthew and then turned to face Elise and asked her calmly. When our gazes met, Elise staggered back.

"Huh? Who are you? Stuart?" Matthew turned to face me, then abruptly turned to face Stuart, who was lying on the ground with a puddle of his own piss beneath him.

"You! Did you do that?" Matthew clenched his fist and glared at me while channelling mana in his body.

I looked up, exhausted from the day's events. I wasn't physically tired, but I was mentally exhausted.

"fu... What was the emergency?" I asked looking up.

"You! How dare you do that to our..." Matthew began to blabber but abruptly stopped when my head dropped in his direction.

"What. Was. The. Emergency?" I repeated myself and glared at him.

"T-that..." Matthew stuttered and took a step back.

***

Matthew Smith, son of 'Paul Smith' who is a billionaire. Paul wanted to enter the hero business for security reasons, and Matthew Smith, his first son, who was smart and talented from birth, was a perfect fit for the role of guild master.

Matthew Smith was a pampered first child who was gifted even as a hero and was rated as a S rank talent. His talent as a hero and his background wasn't something to scoff at. This soon brought more malice upon their family, so Paul Smith wanted to establish a guild to increase the security around their family.

His talent as a hero and his mature attitude made Matthew the guild master of the Hell Fury Guild which was something Matthew was proud of. He was envious of talented mages after seeing them perform magic that he couldn't do.

The Hell Fury Guild quickly became known as the guild for magic and a haven for mages, not because of the number of mages, but because of the security, privacy, and support the guild provided them.

'Why is 'Elise' backing out?' Matthew thought, he knew Elise's fiery nature which he found funny and her strength was something he respected as a rank-AA hero.

He considered the association squad captains to be his rivals, but he would not hesitate to seek assistance from them if he needed it. Though they appear to want to kill each other on the outside, they are simply too prideful to agree with each other.

'A mage of my guild was humiliated... that to in front of the media?' Matthew thought which was just outrageous.

"fu.. What? Was the emergency?" The white-haired man, covered in blood from head to toe, asked, looking up at the sky.

"You! How dare you do that to our..." Matthew expressed his outrage until...

The white-haired man's head dropped, as if it had been severed, towards Matthew. The man's orange eyes, with vertical black pupils, were completely calm, and he looked at Matthew as if he were just another annoying bug.

"What. Was. The. Emergency?" the man asked.

Matthew felt a sudden chill run down his spine, as if he were in the presence of a massive snake that could swallow him whole in an instant.

'I- I need to answer.' Matthew noticed the man's face was gradually turning scaly, transforming into a massive snake that he felt he was in front of.

"T-that..." Matthew started to talk but abruptly stopped and shook his head.

'Wh-what was that?' Matthew shook off what he thought was an illusion of the man in front of him or his own delusion.

'And, what is he talking about? Is it about the emergency about the dungeon our guild manages? Mage... Stuart, the emergency meeting about the new system change? which an unknown guy informed us?' Matthew began to draw connections between the incident and the unexpected call from an unknown man.

"No!" Matthew connected the dots and turned pale.

'Did I unknowingly cause this merciless slaughter of the cadets?' he thought.

"What no?" The white-haired man abruptly appeared in front of Matthew and asked. Matthew took a step back instinctively.

'This.... If I speak, the whole of Hell Fury Guild will be put on the line...'

"No..." Matthew mumbled and shook his head involuntarily. Unknowingly, his actions led to a misunderstanding.

'I should speak before it's too late.... But' Matthew thought and shook his head again but...

BAM

"Ukh!" Matthew groaned in pain.

'What happened?' Matthew noticed the white-haired man's hand on his face and realized he had been slammed to the ground.

"What. No?" The man repeated the question slowly, as if Matthew was stupid enough not to understand the simple language he was speaking.

'.... I understand the problem but this is... ' Matthew thought.

"Unacceptable!" Matthew yelled and punched at the man who stood above him.

BAM

The man simply grabbed Matthew's fist and tightened his grip slowly.

"So what?" the man asked with a calm face.

"You are nothing. I'll give you two and only. Two. Options." The man said and pointed his index and middle finger at Matthew.

"You, either answer my questions or... You die." He said.

"Now, choose." The white haired man pointed his fingers at Matthew's face.

'Choose? Is this a child's play?' Matthew thought understanding there will be no other choice or chance.

"You're taking too long. You have exactly 10 seconds to choose." The white haired man said.
