When Kieran used [Wolf's Remnant Feast, Before the White Wolf] to transform into a werewolf and howl, Duke Zilin, as the temporary head of the palace guards, appeared right away.
Duke Zilin was stunned at first when he saw Kieran in his werewolf form on top of the roof. Then, his eyes showed astonishment and his face was filled with uncertainty.
Even when Kieran deactivated his werewolf form and jumped down from the roof, Duke Zilin's expression didn't go away.
"Hon. 2567, just now?"
Duke Zilin asked after a slight hesitation.
The Snake School ultimate that Kieran mastered was important but the rivalry between his family and the Prairie King was equally important to the young duke.
If both of them were to clash …
Duke Zilin would choose the latter.
Even if choosing the latter would result in death, it would still be the same.
For some people, the so-called family mission and glory were nothing but a joke.
But for some others, it was different.
The family mission and glory were the value of their existence.
No doubt, Duke Zilin was one of those people.
"Wolf Sect, White Wolf."
Kieran said softly and walked past Duke Zilin. His eyes then landed on Mary's room.
The young princess was looking through the window.
When she caught Kieran's gaze, the young princess showed a smile.
Likewise, Kieran replied with a smile.
Then, one of them closed the window and went to sleep peacefully.
The other one went back to her room.
Only Duke Zilin was left standing there in a daze.
"Wolf Sect, White Wolf?
It's the White Wolf?
Makes sense.
Only the White Wolf would have a reason to be there. "
Duke Zilin was shocked at first before realization struck him.
In the end, it turned into a bitter smile.
If Kieran was the White Wolf, his idea of exchanging his family's collection of secret techniques for the Snake School ultimate wouldn't work.
Although the Zilin family had a lot of secret techniques, they couldn't be mentioned in the same breath as a sect.
After all, the time difference was too big.
"What should I do now that something like this has happened?"
Duke Zilin looked troubled.
Under the premise that the exchange didn't work, he really had no other choice.
But asking him to give up?
That was also impossible.
Just like how the young Earl had never thought of stealing the Snake school's Esoteric Arcana through trickery, he had never thought of giving up.
Tenacious and indomitable.
Or stubbornness.
Wasn't this the privilege of the young?
…
In the room, Kieran did not care about the young count's distress.
For Kieran, checking the two spoils of war that he had just obtained was the most important.
Of the two legendary items, one was a long dagger, and the other was a simple sheepskin scroll.

[Remark: This isn't a traditional book that needs to be read, but an accidental creation that stored knowledge. In the end, it became an alternative method of inheritance for Snake School. However, if you want to truly read it, you will need special knowledge.]
…
When Kieran saw the [Sly Viper Sword], he was calm.
For Kieran, who already had Advanced Rank attacks and far surpassed them, an Extreme rank attack was only passable to his eyes.
From a certain aspect, [Sly Viper Sword] wasn't as useful as [Dark Current Dagger].
The [Soundless] attribute of the dagger was enough for Kieran to do a lot of things.
However, when Kieran saw the [Essentials of Snake School's Secret Technique Records], his eyes shrunk.
"Able to level up one of Snake School's skills. Level up depends on skill level and rarity?"
Kieran muttered to himself. His eyes shone as he muttered to himself.
Almost out of instinct, Kieran thought of [Dormant Viper], which cost quite a lot.
"I didn't know Snake School would have such a method of inheritance."
Kieran looked at the [Mystical Knowledge (Snake school, Basic)] that was required to read [Essentials of Snake School's Secret Technique Records]. He walked out without a second thought.
He had to learn the Mystical Knowledge that Snake School had passed down.
Coincidentally, he had a very good candidate in mind.
…
Inside a dark and shadowy room without any light, Perry Kaner was leaning against the wall, holding a dagger in her hand and squinting her eyes.
Even when she was resting, the training she received since she was young allowed Perry Kaner to maintain sufficient vigilance.
However, her vigilance might be enough against common people, but against some special characters, it wasn't enough.
At least, it was before that moment.
After Perry Kaner shed her skin without even realizing it, her heart, or more precisely her spirit, went through a qualitative change.
So, when a black figure slowly approached her window, Perry Kaner opened her eyes.
When the figure lightly opened the window and nimbly snuck in, Snake School didn't hold back and fired an arrow at the figure.
Souuu!
Pak!
The bolts that were shot out were easily swatted down by the newcomer.
However, the figure cried out in surprise.
"Huh?!"
It seemed like the figure wasn't prepared for being discovered, but at the next moment, the figure sighed softly when he saw Snake School Perry dashing towards him.
"Surprised, eh?"
As he said that, he struck again.
His nimble and quick movements caused the dagger in Snake School Perry Kaner's hand to be slapped away before she could react.
Perry Kaner's wrist was twisted and pinned down on the ground.
It was a special method that allowed Snake School to easily break free from any kind of capture, rendering it useless.
Perry Kaner had never heard of such a method before.
However, it didn't mean Perry Kaner didn't understand the gap between her and the figure.
The figure's strength was unrivaled.
Therefore, Perry Kaner gave up on struggling.
"Very well.
I like people who know how to work together.
Then … "
The attacker chuckled softly but before his laughter subsided, he let go of Perry Kaner and retreated in a hurry. The moment he left Perry Kaner's side, a faint smoke appeared around the female leader. The faint stench of blood meant that the smoke was not to be trifled with.
Just like Snake School Perry Kaner.
She gave up struggling.
However, it didn't mean she gave up.
A dagger appeared in Snake School Perry Kaner's hand.
"Troublesome.
I didn't want to hurt you at first, but now it seems like … "
The figure muttered when he saw the scene.
However, the mutterings stopped abruptly once more.
Sweat instantly covered the figure's forehead.
