At the front door of the villa where Deputy Leader Reve of the Moon Eclipse Demon Hunter Association resided, Ed stood facing the guard, who was about to inspect the items on him. Ed slightly furrowed his brows and spoke in a calm tone:
"Reve invited me here, and I'm not accustomed to being without my weapons."
The guard scoffed dismissively and replied casually, "It's the rule. Lord Reve invited you for a meal, bringing weapons might come off as a bit impolite."
Without showing any concern, Ed shrugged and spread his hands, saying nonchalantly, "Well, if that's the case, I think I'd rather go back."
The guard was momentarily stunned. The arrogant expression on his face was immediately replaced by a look of confusion.
At that moment, Reve's voice came from inside, "There's no need for inspection. The food is ready, and if we wait any longer, it will get cold."
