Reon walked slowly along the bustling street, his thoughts drifting toward the mission ahead.
The Greenwood Forest.
It wasn't as vast or ancient as the legendary Mystic Evergreen Forest, but it still stretched far and wide—an untamed wilderness that sprawled across 89 counties within the borders of the Great Zhenou Kingdom.
For most adventurers, it was the most accessible and well-known hunting ground.
And now, it was Reon's destination.
In this sprawling kingdom, power was meticulously distributed among the noble elite.
Above all stood the Royal Great Zhen Family, and beneath them, four Superior Clans reigned—each entrusted with authority over 22 counties.
All except the Niu Family, who came to control 23 counties after forcefully annexing Minlung County—once ruled by the now-fallen, neutral Ning Family.
Each group of five counties was further entrusted to an Elite Family, serving directly under their respective Superior Clan.
