Megan, traveling with Keith and guards, is ambushed by the Furious Giant Bear Mercenary Corps. They halt the convoy and surround Megan's carriage. Megan bravely steps out, identifying herself as a Free Noble of Kakasong City seeking her brother, Gol Krueger. She declares she has a business proposal. Captain Quid of the mercenaries appears and, after a lecherous appraisal, invites Megan and Keith to meet with Gol inside the forest.

When they saw Megan, their eyes instantly brightened, even swallowing their saliva...

As they continued forward, the mountain forest became not only brighter but also more bustling.

A stream of voices, bursts of hearty laughter, and the sound of drinking echoed ahead.

Megan looked in the direction of the sounds, and at the edge of the mountain forest ahead, a massive mountain appeared in her sight.

The conversations and laughter emanated from the mountain cave.

Led by Quid, Megan and Keith entered the cave.

Megan’s gaze turned, scanning her surroundings.

About twenty or thirty burly men were lying on leather and wool blankets, drinking and resting.

From their muscular build, Megan could guess that they were the core members of the Furious Giant Bear Mercenary Corps.

A tall and powerful physique is the best symbol of strength.

While Megan observed, Quid stopped ahead, and Megan and Keith also halted.

Megan’s gaze moved towards the depths of the cave.

On the rocky throne carved out with with great effort.

A man as strong and burly as a black bear, was reclining on it.

His muscles were knotted, and veins like hemp ropes wrapped around his arms.

His thick neck, almost as large as a head, was covered with bulging muscles...

Perhaps because the burly man’s body was too massive.

Even the rocky throne seemed a bit cramped.

Seeing the unfamiliar yet familiar face of the burly man, Megan’s heart couldn’t help but tighten.

Megan naturally knew that the burly man on the rocky throne was her half-brother — Gol Krueger.

Compared to Gol Krueger on the rocky throne, the originally sturdy Quid looked like a skinny monkey.

Quid bowed and respectfully said.

"Leader, Megan Edwin has been brought."

Quid’s words echoed in the cave.

Some core members of the mercenary corps, who were resting with closed eyes, opened their eyes and turned their gaze towards Megan.

Gol Krueger opened his eyes, following the sound.

After glancing at Quid, he also looked at Megan.

A deep and powerful voice came from Gol’s mouth.

"Megan Edwin..."

Megan slightly lowered her head, just about to respond.

But insulting words continued from Gol’s mouth on the rocky throne.

"The pigs of the Edwin family!"

"And you still dare to appear in front of me?"

"Do you not know how I killed the last patriarch of the Edwin family, Cyril?"

Feeling the coldness emanating from Gol and the murderous intent in his words.

Megan’s heart couldn’t help but tighten, her breathing becoming slightly rapid.

Forcing down the nervousness in her heart, Megan looked directly at Gol and said.

"As a direct descendant of Cyril, Megan naturally knows how brother killed my biological father Cyril."

"Brother used the power of his arms to tear Cyril in half."

"Cyril died instantly!"

Gol’s reclining body suddenly moved forward, closing the distance to Megan.

His huge eyes bulged, staring sternly at Megan.

"Then you dare to come to my territory?"

"Are you not afraid that I will kill you like I killed your father?"

Facing Gol’s gaze, Megan was filled with tension.

But Megan’s face remained unchanged, she responded in a deep voice.

"Cyril’s actions towards brother... Megan believes Cyril deserved to die!"

"If it weren’t for Cyril, brother could have continued living with mother in the village."

"If it weren’t for Cyril, brother wouldn’t bear the crime of patricide, wouldn’t be wanted by the Free Nobility and Church, and wouldn’t have been driven out of Kakasong City..."

"All of this is Cyril’s fault!"

Listening to Megan’s words, Gol snorted coldly.

His body moved, leaning back on the rocky throne.

Gol’s tone was noticeably less cold.

"But you are Cyril’s bloodline, his biological daughter, and even the current head of the Edwin family!"

"Don’t you want to avenge your father?"

"Do you truly have no hatred for me?"

Megan continued to look directly at Gol and responded calmly.

"Brother misunderstood."

"Brother can think carefully, given that Cyril had so many biological sons."

"How could Cyril have passed the position of the Edwin family patriarch to Megan, a woman?"

"Not only that, but Megan also wants to thank brother!"

Gol’s large eyes were fixed on Megan, silent.

Megan explained.

"If brother hadn’t killed Cyril, Megan would never have become the head of the Edwin family!"

"If it weren’t for brother, Megan doesn’t dare imagine what kind of fate awaited her..."

Gol hummed thoughtfully and directly interrupted Megan.

"You don’t need to say all this nonsense."

"Tell me about this big deal you’re talking about!"

Indeed.

There is never an undying enmity, only eternal interests!

Megan nodded knowingly and said.

"Brother, Megan came to your camp this time to hire your mercenary corps!"

The mercenary captain Quid and other core members, who had been listening, all brightened their eyes.

Awaiting Megan’s further explanation.

Gol hummed thoughtfully again and said.

"Continue!"

Megan didn’t hesitate, continuing her words.
