Central Cemetery, Arwena Algor Zelgar's Grave.
This was what was written on the note.
"Central Cemetery, eh?"
Kieran couldn't help but pucker his lips when he thought of something.
It seemed like the reward this time was much bigger than he expected.
"Is that your target as well?"
Kieran muttered in his heart as he walked out of the building.
At the bottom of the stairs outside, Wier and a man in Special Affairs Division uniform were standing side by side. When the man saw Kieran walk out, the man quickly walked up to him.
"Lord D, this is a gift from the lord.
If you have any orders, please let me know. "
The man passed a briefcase to Kieran and said in a flattering tone.
"Em."
Kieran took the briefcase without commenting.
Then?
He didn't even look at the man and walked back to the car he came from.
From the start to the end, Kieran didn't need any so-called helpers.
He knew these people weren't reliable.
The man's face changed a few times when he saw Kieran's back.
However, the man didn't get angry out of embarrassment.
In the next second, a warm smile appeared on the man's face. He took two quick steps to the side of the car and said through the window, "Your Excellency D, please take care."
Then, when the man straightened his back and looked at Wier, his face was stiff.
"Wier, from now on, you need to follow Lord D around 24 hours a day and handle everything for him. If there's anything you can't handle, remember to let me know!
"Do you understand?"
Wier didn't even look at the man as he ordered Wier around, he just walked to the driver's seat.
Wier knew what kind of person Wier was.
He didn't need to care about such a person.
Once Wier did, Wier would be like a dog skin plaster, following Wier like a shadow.
So, Wier didn't want to stay for a second longer.
After starting the car, Wier stepped on the accelerator and the car sped out like a wild horse.
…
"Lord D, where are you going?"
Wier asked after they left the building.
"Back to Stove-grilled Fish."
Kieran replied.
He didn't say another word, nor did he intend to continue. Will, who wanted to ask about Slodel, didn't know how to start.
However, the old consultant couldn't really turn a blind eye to his good friend being kidnapped.
In the end, he braced himself and asked.
"Have you heard from Slodel?"
When the old consultant asked the question, he didn't expect Kieran to answer, but to his surprise, Kieran answered without hesitation.
"No."
Such a reply made the old consultant's face darken.
A moment later, he smiled bitterly.
"If possible, I'd rather you not answer."
"As expected, that big shot was looking for you for something else."
"Yeah, so what if Slow is the mayor?"
"Even the Speaker, Hardy Lynn, is dead. The murderer died in prison without knowing why, but this big shot doesn't care about it. What's the big shot about a kidnapped mayor?"
Wier's bitter smile was laced with self-mockery as he spoke.
Wier's smile got even more bitter as he mocked himself.
Through the rear-view mirror, Kieran clearly saw the smile on Kieran's face.
However, he maintained his expressionless face.
Even if he didn't want to play the role of a qualified Monster Hunter, Kieran wouldn't have said anything at that moment.
Even though Wier seemed honest and reliable, it didn't mean Kieran had the obligation to let him know what he shouldn't know.
In simple words, Kieran didn't trust Wier.
It was extremely difficult to befriend someone who was paranoid.
Not only did it require the strength to fight side by side, but it also required decent luck.
Wier?
He didn't have the strength.
He didn't have the luck either.
After that, the car fell into silence.
Even when the car stopped in front of Stove-grilled Fish and Kieran came down, the silence didn't break.
"Tsk, not bad."
Lagren raised a brow when he saw the extra suitcase in Kieran's hand. He then waved at Wier, who walked in.
"Wier, what do you want?"
"Hot tea.
"There's no tea. How about water?"
"Em."
Lagren picked up an empty teacup and signaled Wier. Wier simply replied.
Wier's eyes followed Kieran, even after Kieran disappeared at the end of the stairs, his eyes didn't move away.
"Some things can't be forced.
These guys have their own way of doing things and they know what they are doing.
They won't change their way of doing things because of a certain person.
They won't change their way of doing things because of a certain person.
They will stick to their principles.
"They love their lives."
Even from an outsider's point of view, everything is a mess. After all, these guys are known as Monster Hunters. "
Lagren placed a cup of hot water in front of Wier and said with a shrug.
"I know.
But I'm worried about Sloth. "
Wier smiled bitterly again.
"So, you should hope that D will stick to his own principles."
Lagren sat down in front of Wier.
"What do you mean?"
Wier was slightly confused.
"Because this is the only way to prove that victory is within his grasp!"
Lagren smiled.
…
Kieran heard Lagren's comforting words to Wier.
He didn't care.
He wasn't a Monster Hunter.
What he insisted on was different from a Monster Hunter.
Besides, there was another matter that required Kieran's attention.
He opened the box that he just got.
There were two pieces of [Ice Soul Remnant] and five pieces of [Ice Soul Fragments], which were one level lower than the [Ice Soul Remnant]. They had similar attributes to the [Ice Soul Remnant], but their effects were much worse.
However, it was the weaker [Ice Soul Shards] that caused a commotion under the bed.
The Frost Wolf pup, who had been hiding under the bed, whimpered softly.
After it got Kieran's permission, it ran out and circled Kieran non-stop, wagging its tail.
"You want them?"
Kieran picked up the [Ice Soul Shards].
The Frost Wolf pup nodded right away.
"Smart little fella."
Kieran touched the pup's head and placed all the [Ice Soul Shards] in front of the pup.
Kieran wasn't worried that the pup would overeat. When he took the [Ice Soul Remnant], the pup didn't react at all. It seemed like the pup knew what it could eat and what it couldn't.
Tonics were good but overfeeding it would be fatal.
The pup stuck out its tongue and licked one of the [Ice Soul Shards] into its mouth. Kieran waited patiently.
The wait didn't take long before the pup's body started to change.
