They surrounded Frey from all directions, chanting and roaring until their throats ran dry and they could shout no more.
Through it all… Frey never said a word.
He simply walked among them .. a faint smile on his face.
But this smile was unlike the bitter ones he had always worn.
It was different .. confident, resolute .. the smile of a warrior standing at the peak.
"…So this is the strength of that man's son."
From a distance, watching silently, Bloodmader spoke with an unreadable expression.
He had been meant to be the supreme commander of the vanguard.
But now, he didn't even bother giving out orders anymore.
He knew .. the soldiers wouldn't follow anyone else now.
They would only follow Frey Starlight.
The hero who had shown them miracles today.
"He really is like his father… when it comes to overwhelming power."
The one who answered him was none other than Phoenix Sunlight .. the man who had once been Frey's teacher.
