"Tanya and Kana still need to pack some personal belongings, they'll be here soon."
The old monk explained when Kieran sized him up.
However, Kieran wasn't concerned about that.
"Only these?"
Kieran pointed at the backpack on the old monk's back.
"This is already His Majesty's mercy."
The old monk replied with a smile.
There wasn't a bit of dissatisfaction on his face, instead, he was grateful.
Kieran raised a brow when he saw the expression on the old monk's face.
Rassho Temple might not have a lot of people and buildings but it didn't mean Rassho Temple wasn't wealthy enough, or more precisely, Rassho Temple had enough treasures.
These treasures obviously couldn't be stored in a small backpack that could only hold two pieces of clothes at most.
Even with Tanya and Kana, they might not be able to move everything away.
More so, the old monk had stated clearly that the two girls were just packing some personal belongings.
"What a stingy fella."
Kieran couldn't help but grumble softly.
The old monk heard the grumbles but he showed a smile on his face, he didn't show any signs of agreement or objection.
Soon, Tanya and Kana appeared in front of Kieran with their backpacks and suitcases.
Without further ado, the two girls seemed to know that they were leaving, they stood behind Kieran and the old monk and were ready to depart.
Kana who was standing behind the old monk had an eager face, her body was filled with an eager aura.
Tanya, on the other hand, was confused but when she saw Kieran's back, she smiled with delight.
It seemed like the clairvoyant didn't have the slightest awareness of becoming a God, she was still the half-baked one.
Kieran glanced over Tanya, he wanted to say something but when he saw the silly smile on Tanya's face, Kieran unconsciously changed his words.
"You guys go to Forest City first.
I'll depart later and meet up there. "
Kieran said.
"2567, aren't you coming with us?"
Tanya who was smiling foolishly was stunned for a moment before she looked at Kieran with a pitiful gaze, like a puppy that was about to be abandoned.
But Kieran was completely indifferent to such a look.
After that, he nodded at the old monk and Kana before disappearing.
Tanya immediately searched for Kieran.
Moreover, the girl really did benefit from her newfound power.
But before the girl could do anything, the old monk suddenly spoke.
"Tanya, do you remember the butterfly in the cocoon?"
"In order to make it easier for it to break out of the cocoon, you helped it tear open the cocoon. But because you thought you were helping it, the butterfly didn't have strong enough wings. In the wind that followed, its wings were broken and it fell."
"Perhaps my analogy is somewhat inappropriate."
"But the logic is similar."
"What you think is best is not what others think."
"Butterflies are like this."
"The same goes for Hon. 2567."
The old monk said slowly.
"Then what should I do?"
Tanya asked anxiously.
For a girl of her age, having feelings for the opposite sex was the most youthful and also the most beautiful moment in her life.
Beautiful to the point of being eager.
Beautiful to the point of being unforgettable.
Beautiful to the point of being …
Disregarding one's own safety.
The old monk sighed softly when he saw his friend's daughter's expression. He raised his right hand and pointed at his heart, "You will have to ask yourself!"
"Ask myself?"
The girl frowned and muttered to herself.
Kana also frowned.
Kana didn't understand her friend's feelings.
But she was willing to help her friend.
"We will think about it as we go.
That bastard will go to Forest City anyway. "
Kana then held her friend's hand and walked out of Rassho Temple's gate, boarding the car that was waiting for them.
The car wasn't Rassho Temple's property but rented from the elderly inspector.
Tanya sat in the passenger seat.
Surprisingly, Kana sat in the driver's seat.
The old monk didn't get in the car right away.
He stood beside the car and turned around quietly, looking at Rassho Temple behind him.
His turbid eyes were filled with too many emotions.
As a result, this pair of eyes became even more turbid, like a pool of muddy water. Not only were there ripples, but there was also the sound of the wind.
It was telling the dribs and drabs of the wind.
In the end …
The old monk put his palms together and bowed at the old temple before boarding the backseat of the car.
As the engine roared, the car brought up a cloud of dust.
When the dust settled down again, the car was already gone.
…
Puckle was reading through the information his men gathered, his forehead was covered in sweat.
It was because of nervousness and excitement, but also because of excitement and joy.
"The God of Forest City!
The leader of Perforation Sting!
"They were all killed!"
"After killing the God of Forest City, the Bird of Death will surely …"
Puckle couldn't stay in his chair anymore when the thought came into his mind.
He jumped up and ran towards the deeper part of the Funeral Society branch office.
There, Ditko and his lordship were waiting for news.
However, just as Puckle reached the office door and was about to push it open, the door was opened from the inside.
Ditko the Huntsman walked out with a heavy expression.
Puckle was stunned when he saw Ditko walk out. Then, he unconsciously shifted his gaze.
Right away, Puckle saw a black figure through the gap between Ditko and the door.
The black crow feathers were emanating an ominous luster under the light.
"The Bird of Death!"
Puckle couldn't hold back his cry of shock.
But right after that, Puckle reacted to the situation.
He straightened his body and bowed respectfully, showing his respect to his Majesty.
Ditko also saluted.
The Funeral Society huntsman straightened his back and carefully closed the office door. He then said with a never before seen stern tone, "Lock down the area, without my order, no one is allowed to get close to the area."
"Understood!"
Although Puckle's heart was guessing the reason why the Bird of Death appeared in the branch, it didn't stop Puckle from carrying out the order.
A few seconds later, the whole Funeral Society branch entered into a Level 1 state of alert.
"Is there a need to be so serious?
I'm just here to discuss a collaboration with you people. "
Kieran stated the purpose of his visit directly at one of the higher ranks of Funeral Society.
"Your presence here is enough for us to do so.
It is a form of etiquette and also a form of respect for you.
It is also a form of protection for the ignorant mortals. "
One of the 21 Fiend Exorcists, Ren, replied in a serious tone.
As one of the higher ranks of Funeral Society, Ren had a lot of experience in dealing with Gods.
Regardless of what kind of God it was, respect was the first rule.
The Bird of Death who had killed the God of Forest City was no exception to this rule.
"What collaboration are you talking about?"
