The current dungeon world was the summer of the year 1182.
It had been a hundred years since the date written on the paper.
Plus the description of 'my army, Burning Dawn', the one who wrote the words could only be the first Burning Marquis and the Grand Duke of Dawn.
A crown that the first Burning Marquis and the Grand Duke of Dawn were searching for, it wouldn't be some common item.
Coincidentally, the wolf-skin book also mentioned a crown.
What was even more coincidental was that his competitors had all left the vicinity of Supreme Road.
This was especially true for Extremus, who was supposed to be from the Golden City but had never shown his face.
If it wasn't something urgent, Kieran didn't believe Extremus would leave. There must be a series of missions that would affect the final title in Golden City.
Unless Kieran could directly acquire a Unique Title there.
Or maybe …
Golden City had something more important than acquiring a Unique Title.
"A crown eh?"
Kieran muttered softly.
It was delightful to clear up some of the mist.
However, some doubts weren't truly solved.
For example, the arrangements that Broker's pawn had set up for Supreme Road.
Based on Kieran's thoughts, it should be a death trap.
Unlike now, where it started anticlimactic but ended abruptly.
Kieran didn't believe Broker would be this careless.
The only explanation was that Broker's arrangements had gone through some unpredictable changes, thus affecting the entire setup.
Then …
"What happened?"
As Kieran was in deep thought, he looked up at Luzarc who was waiting beside him.
"What's wrong Luzarc?"
Kieran asked.
"My lord, we need to speed up our preparations — everything that happened here must be known by Dawn City, the people there won't sit back and do nothing.
I've informed Walloon to rearrange the defense with Golden City as the core. Outpost 11 will also be rebuilt as the vanguard outpost.
Burning Dawn riders will dispatch more scouts to watch the direction of Dawn City. Once those greedy bastards appear, I guarantee we will get the relevant information at the first moment. "
The chief rider of Burning Dawn reported the arrangements he had made in detail.
"Em.
How long can you guys last against the imperials and nobles? "
Kieran nodded and asked a question that surprised the chief rider of Burning Dawn.
In Luzarc's heart, this battle wasn't a question of how long he could last, but when he could start his counterattack.
After all, they had a leader who could fight against ten thousand and a city all by himself.
Luzarc even believed that Kieran alone could crush the royal family and the nobles' allied army.
However, the loyal chief of Burning Dawn didn't run away from Kieran's question.
"If the supply doesn't stop, I can exhaust this allied army to death on Supreme Road!"
"They are the elites of Saint Cyanda."
"But we, Burning Dawn, are the trump card of the elites. Even if we've encountered some unforeseen events, it won't change our fighting strength!"
"All I need is a sudden battle, and I'll let them understand the difference between us!"
The chief rider of Burning Dawn replied with a sonorous and powerful voice.
The pride on his face and the determination in his eyes made Kieran nod in satisfaction.
"Very good."
"Do as you say!"
"You will temporarily become the leader of Burning Dawn, I'll tell Walloon to support you with all his might."
Kieran stood up from the book.
"My lord, is there something you want to do?"
"Please tell me, I'll do my best to help you achieve it!"
"So, please stay in Burning Dawn!"
"Because only with my lord around will Burning Dawn be the real Burning Dawn! Only with your leadership can we truly be invincible!"
The chief rider of Burning Dawn looked at Kieran in astonishment.
He didn't quite understand why Kieran would say such a thing.
Though, it didn't stop Luzarc from persuading Kieran.
However, once Kieran made up his mind, he wouldn't change his mind because of others' persuasion.
The Frost Wolf pup that was resting its head on a book jumped up right away and dashed into the seams of Kieran's armor, revealing only its head.
Compared to Luzarc, the Frost Wolf pup that had a contract with Kieran understood Kieran's intentions better.
Softly caressing the whimpering Frost Wolf pup, Kieran picked up the crow feathered mantle on top of the book and put it on.
Followed by the pouch.
Luzarc was even more anxious when he saw Kieran's actions.
"My lord, what are you trying to do?"
The chief rider asked.
"Go to Dawn City."
Kieran replied calmly.
"What?!"
Luzarc widened his eyes and looked at Kieran in disbelief.
He knew Dawn City was like a tiger's lair and a dragon's lair for Kieran at the moment.
If they were in Supreme Road, they would have the upper hand, but once they reached Dawn City, the situation would be flipped.
Despite Luzarc showing deep disdain towards the Imperials and nobles, deep in his heart, Luzarc wasn't arrogant enough to ignore his opponents.
Whether it was the Imperials or the nobles, they were all outstanding in their own ways.
It was an undeniable fact.
So, Luzarc knelt down on one knee in front of Kieran.
"My lord, please reconsider.
Dawn City isn't as simple as it looks. "
The chief rider said loudly.
"Yes, I know.
If it's possible, I really want to move the battlefield to Supreme Road, I will have the upper hand here but … "
"My enemy won't allow me to do that."
"Besides, after receiving the news of what happened here, he will surely hasten his steps."
"I don't have much time left.
More so … "
"There is someone waiting for me there."
"If I still don't appear, he'll definitely be out of his wits."
Kieran then walked out of the tent.
"My lord, you can't go alone, you need at least a group of guards."
Luzarc changed his words right away when he realized he couldn't stop Kieran.
However, Kieran just waved his hand and his figure started to fade before Luzarc's eyes until he vanished.
No answer was the best answer.
Who could keep up with Kieran's speed?
Or to be more direct, why would Kieran need guards when he could take on ten thousand men and a city all by himself?
"My lord, you …"
Luzarc looked at the direction where Kieran vanished and wanted to say something.
In the end, he didn't say anything.
Things had already happened, it was too late to stop it.
All that was left was to do his best.
Luzarc hesitated for a while before he walked out.
He did mention that Burning Dawn was the ace of the elites, all it would take was a sudden ambush and it would show the imperial and nobles the gap between them.
Luzarc didn't want his words to be nonsense.
