Far beyond the horizon, the steaming heat showered on the dessert kingdom of Molonia, It has been more than a week after Neko and company's arrival to this world. Walls made of hardened sandstone towered high above, and around it, protecting many buildings or houses within.

From it's very center stood the largest structure which was a castle also made of sandstone guarded by many towers, the castle was not only guarded by towers, many soldiers or mages were assigned on top and the walls were obviously enchanted. It was very ordinary and normal and nothing interesting was not happening as of 𝑦𝑒𝑡.

During this hot sunny day, a black cat was leaping stealthily through rooftops from one house to another forwards to reach the castle without anyone looking by it, and when it had reached the spot, the latter was engulfed in reddish smoke that spiralled from below to more than a meter on the figure's top. From it appeared none other than Neko the supersoldier, he landed on the wall of one of the many towers circled around the castle and listened as he caught a word from someone above him, he didn't seem to have been noticed in his desert camouflage suit.

"A war I heard."

"Arkheist is in pretty big trouble, huh? I feel bad for them."

"Yeah me too, but I for one don't want our country interfering in their war with the Sarcia Kingdom. Wouldn't want to risk my ass for no reason."

"Yeah, least we can do is hope they win and crush those Sarcian bastards. Rotten to the core, they are."

Neko listened silently below them, clutching bricks to stay glued on the wall.

"Not to worry, I heard those guys finally have a new hero on their side. Although I'm not sure if she will be their representative in the coming war."

"Girl? The one I heard who defeated hundreds of soldiers on her own?"

"Yeah her, she's serving as the guard for the third princess of Arkheist. I reckon the princess appointed her as saviour and got her to that position, hope she beat the crap out of those other countries. Except ours ofcourse, not like anyone would pick a fight with us, eh? Hahaha!"

Neko leaned closer. Hoping for more information he could get a hold of, he pressed his helmet on trying to catch every word.

"And Rod, What's her name again?"

"I think it was, Atalante Okamura."

There was a crunching noise below them which had stolen their full attention, Neko almost fell off the bricks.

Neko: "O-Okamura? Atala?"

"Hey you!"

He was spotted, a guard from below in a wall's window was pointing at him and telling him to get down. Neko obviously refused, took out his [𝘔𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘤 𝘎𝘰𝘥 𝘗𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘭], transformed it into a missile just below him and he rode it backwards to escape as he got swept in sound speed.
However -

𝘽𝙊𝙊𝙈!

Something really hard and big crashed against the armor of the missile he was riding, but it didn't explode. However, the missile was jerked upwards and in a second turned back to it's original form by Neko in mid-flight. There was a wolf-like man with black fur from below holding his hand up looking as thought he was the one who threw what ever that hit him. That man was the Molonian Hero; Arazvoc, a beastman. Half wolf and half human, Neko could see it was wearing black and gold armor from it's shoulders to knees like one an egyptian deity would wear, he turned to him and called loudly as Neko's left arm began to bleed.

Arazvoc: "Get down here!"

Neko: "I refuse!"

He took a small narrow bottle with red oozing liquid inside and drank it in one gulp. Immediately, the bleeding stopped.
