Before Kieran could ask, a series of footsteps entered his ears.
The familiar footsteps made Kieran frown.
"Please forgive my selfishness. Tally is my granddaughter after all, and I have high hopes for her as my heir!"
Rosland said in a pleading tone.
The door was pushed open amidst her pleas.
A girl who looked like Tally but younger and prettier walked in. Kieran's frown deepened when he saw her tall and slender figure.
The footsteps he had heard earlier had confirmed that it was Tally.
However, the girl in front of him could not be more than 20 years old. She was very different from the middle-aged woman in his memory.
"Tally had to change her appearance for this mission. She didn't mean to lie to you!"
Rosland explained.
"Hon. 2567, please forgive my rudeness. This is everything about the Shepherds of Death …"
The girl said softly as she placed a thick stack of documents in front of Kieran.
After losing the dignity of a superior, her voice was even more pleasing to the ear. Coupled with her beautiful and charming appearance, it was truly captivating.
However, Kieran's frown did not loosen.
"Our agreement includes a condition for Tally to return to the Landsky family," Rosland said.
Kieran said slowly.
"Yes, yes!"
Rosland's forehead started to sweat.
"As long as you remember!"
Kieran took the documents on the table and left with his belongings.
...
"Damn it!"
After Kieran left, Tally, who had returned to her original appearance, said angrily.
"Hon. 2567 is more determined than we thought …"
"We can't use our original plan anymore!
Tally, you should go back to the family for now! "
Rosland said straightforwardly.
"But …"
"No buts! I've tried it once, and the current situation won't allow me to try it again. Unless we want to lose this great opportunity!"
Rosland interrupted his granddaughter's rebuttal.
He spoke resolutely and decisively.
"Alright."
Tally nodded reluctantly.
…
"You want to test my bottom line?"
Sitting in a taxi, Kieran thought silently.
Maybe the previous scene was just like what Rosland had said. Tally was Landsky's granddaughter and he didn't want his granddaughter's future to be ruined.
However, Kieran could still sense something else within the mist.
It was a kind of test without leaving a trace.
If Kieran stepped back, Landsky would definitely push her luck and use Tally as the center of attention. Although Kieran wasn't sure how Tally managed to disguise herself as a middle-aged woman, Kieran could tell she had put in a lot of effort to dress up just now.
The way she looked at him was mixed with a gaze that made him uncomfortable.
It was as if a female leopard had spotted its prey.
Kieran would not put himself in the position of prey.
Just like how he would not back down in front of Rosland Landsky.
Because in his heart, the other party had not reached that level yet.
The taxi drove smoothly all the way to 1st Black Street.
After paying the fare, Kieran got out of the car and looked at the lights in the hall that were still on. He couldn't help but smirk.
The camaraderie of cooperation and benefit.
What was the difference between that and true friendship?
It was probably the warmth in his heart.
Kieran told himself and pressed the doorbell.
Then the door of the building in the distance opened.
Ellie Jones was the first to rush out. Seeing Kieran standing there unscathed, her eyes immediately turned red. She raised her hand to cover her mouth and turned around.
Simones, Schmidt, and Raul and Cidney were a step behind.
Simones laughed.
Raul and Cidney were overtaken by Schmidt.
Schmidt put his arm around Kieran's shoulder and patted him hard.
In the end, Louver walked out with a puzzled expression.
However, it quickly returned to its original state.
The night grew darker and darker.
The laughter grew louder and louder.
When the sun shone over the West Coast again, the news of the Ominous Bird and the Bird of Death wiping out the East Coast mystical forces had spread to every corner of the city through the Mysterious Daily. Then, the news spread to the surrounding areas at lightning speed.
The Fiery Devil was officially added to Kieran's list of titles.
Moreover, it was widely acknowledged.
Astonishment.
Disbelief.
All sorts of expressions appeared on the faces of the mystics.
Doubts were the only thing that was decreasing.
In front of the 30 dead bodies of the East Coast mystics, doubts no longer existed.
In particular, when a few famous figures were recognized, the crowd let out a series of gasps.
They were shocked.
Or perhaps … he was frightened by it.
Invitation letters started to appear at 1st Black Street like snowflakes.
Every single one of them was the same.
They expressed the purpose of the visit and expressed that they or their organization had no ill intentions.
At first, Ellie Jones checked every single one of them carefully.
Then, she threw them into the trash can.
If Kieran didn't care, why should she?
Whenever she thought about Kieran's farewell at dawn, even though it was reasonable, Ellie Jones felt unhappy.
Kieran had agreed to go with him, but not her.
"Is his head filled with sawdust?"
The young girl twisted the corner of her shirt angrily, as if it was Kieran's face.
"Sigh!"
Simones, who was mixing a new potion for Boller, unconsciously sighed when he saw the scene.
As someone who had been through this, he knew that the young girl had a long way to go.
Likewise, he hoped that Kieran and the others would have a safe journey.
"Ancient alchemy …"
"Impossible, impossible!"
We should have destroyed that thing with our own hands! "
The potionologist muttered to himself before shaking his head.
Then, as if he had thought of something, he slapped his forehead.
"I hope we can make it in time!"
As he spoke, he dashed into the study room and picked up the phone.
...
It was still Simones' Picard.
Schmidt was driving, Kieran was in the passenger seat, and Raul and Cidney were in the back.
"I wonder how Ruki is doing?"
Raul's hoarse voice was filled with worry.
"Don't worry, Ruki will be fine!
She's from a mystical family, so she's smart and has many ways to protect herself … "
Cidney comforted her softly.
However, both Schmidt and Kieran could hear the lack of confidence in Cidney's voice.
However, neither of them said anything.
Schmidt even changed the topic.
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave, 2567?
You just won a big victory yesterday. You should take advantage of the situation and wipe out all the mystical factions on the West Coast, including the Shepherds of Death! "
Schmidt asked in confusion.
Kieran shrugged with a smile.
He couldn't explain to Schmidt that he was trying to delay the completion of his Main Mission so that he could complete more Sub Missions.
Fortunately, Schmidt was used to acting mysterious.
"I wonder what Forende Town will be like?
Raul, you … "
Schmidt asked.
Before he could finish, Kieran interrupted him.
"Watch out!"
Kieran shouted, pulling the steering wheel hard.
Souuu!
A black spear grazed the car and plunged into the ground.
Dak Dak, Dak Dak.
The Black Knight appeared one after another with the loud galloping of the horses.
PS: Fourth chapter ~
This was the fourth chapter that Kieran had promised everyone.
He felt really helpless when he was writing this chapter.
Strong winds, torrential rain, hail, power outages, coffee shops, karaoke and hotels …
