Kieran decided to head to the capital of Warren, Riverdale.
But before he left, he had one more thing to do.
Find Mary's mother's sword.
After confirming that Galeart was the killer, the search wasn't that hard.
In order to remove Mary's doubts, Galeart wouldn't have left Swusters Castle's perimeter after the murder.
Rather than hiding in a place that he was not even familiar with,
Swusters Castle, which Mary was familiar with, was no doubt a better choice.
Before this, Galeart's subordinates and disciples might have set fire to Swusters Castle to cover up the whereabouts of the sword.
So, Kieran and Mary returned to Swusters Castle.
The suspension bridge had been destroyed in the fire.
Fortunately, the remaining chains were still sturdy.
Kieran climbed up the chains with one hand and hugged Mary with the other. He quickly passed through the chains and with Mary's confirmation, Kieran started to search the ruins before him.
The upper floor of the tower had completely collapsed.
All that was left was the bottom of the tower that was scorched black by the fire.
The high temperature and fire made the bricks and stones fragile. Kieran easily dug a path to Galeart's room with his bare hands.
After the rubble was swept away, Kieran found a hidden door.
"There used to be a blanket here."
Mary pointed at the door.
Kieran was already inspecting the surroundings.
He wasn't sure whether Galeart had left any backup measures behind, so it was better to be safe than sorry.
The next moment proved the necessity of his actions.
Kieran signaled Mary to stand behind him.
Then, he pulled the door upwards.
Sou Sou Sou
Seven to eight arrows were fired out from the door and pierced through the wall on the other side.
If someone was standing there, the arrows would have pierced a few holes through the wall.
However, the changes on the wall that followed made Kieran and Mary's face change for the worse.
After a series of sizzling noises, the wall started to melt at an exponential speed visible to the naked eye.
Three breaths later, the wall was melted into a puddle of bitumen-like liquid.
"Careful!"
The scene before him made Kieran even more alarmed.
After reminding Mary, he began to look into the secret room.
After a few confirmations, Kieran jumped in.
The secret bazaar wasn't big, it was only four or five square meters.
There weren't many things on the shelves.
There was only one Knight sword in its sheath.
The blade of the sword was more than twice as wide as a normal longsword and half as long, but it was also much narrower and shorter than a two-handed greatsword. There was a counterweight at the end of the hilt, which allowed this sword to have an advantage not only in combat on foot, but also in combat on horseback.
"Sharpness Slash!"
Kieran couldn't help but stare blankly when he saw its Attributes.
He suddenly understood why Galeart was greedy.
Because he also had a similar thought of taking it for himself.
Think about it, if you had a longsword that could cut through weapons and armor below the Legendary grade, and at the same time, your attack would reach the Extreme grade, what would it be like?
Most of the players are going to stay away.
Kieran silently prayed in his heart.
Then he sighed.
Aside from his own needs, Kieran knew that it was impossible for him to obtain this Legendary-ranked longsword. Mary's attitude alone was enough for Kieran to know what choice he should make.
Mary's current situation was related to his main mission.
If he failed his main mission, his highest attributes would drop by 2 ranks or a Legendary-ranked longsword that he couldn't use at all. Which one was more important?
As long as he wasn't an idiot, he would know what to choose.
After jumping back to the ground, Kieran passed the sword to Mary.
The little girl was holding the Knight Sword that had reached her chest with some difficulty. Although she looked like she would fall at any moment, she didn't have the intention to speak.
Although he had a sword, the weight was nothing to Kieran.
However, when Kieran and Mary were halfway through the journey, a person appeared in front of them.
Kieran's heart instantly skipped a beat.
Although he always carried his valuables with him, he was in a disadvantageous position when he was carrying Mary in mid-air.
If the person who appeared out of nowhere was an enemy, all he had to do was cut the iron chain and it would be enough to put him in an awkward position.
Just when Kieran was calculating how he should safely overcome the danger before him, the person in front of him spoke.
"I mean no harm.
I am His Majesty's minister and advisor, Bosco. "
The person stated his identity.
However, it wasn't enough to gain Kieran's trust.
Even after Kieran and Mary safely passed through the iron chains and landed on the ground, Kieran was still vigilant when he saw Bosco who was dressed like a farmer and was dressed in burlap clothes.
As for His Majesty's minister and advisor?
Just because Bosco said so?
Without solid proof, Bosco was just a stranger.
"Just like what the rumors say, Hon. 2567, you really are a vigilant person. Can you give me the secret order? It can prove my identity."
"Don't worry, I don't want to know what's inside.
After all, His Majesty wrote down the contents in front of me. "
Bosco who came from the prosperous imperial city seemed to have heard of Kieran's reputation.
He looked at Mary with a kind smile.
However, Mary turned her eyes to Kieran.
The little girl chose to believe in Kieran.
Kieran nodded and took the scroll. He then passed it to the man who called himself Bosco and quietly passed the box with the scroll to his left hand.
His dominant hand was his right hand.
It was much more flexible and powerful than his left hand.
It would be easier for him to deal with any sudden incidents.
The light shone from the scroll.
Kieran's right hand was shaking but he didn't move further.
He clearly saw the light rise from the scroll and spread to Bosco's left hand.
A red vein appeared on the back of his hand.
"Blood connection?"
Kieran wondered.
"This is the secret technique of the Warren royal family, it uses the power of the blood to confirm one's identity.
I think I have proven my identity. Then … "
"In the coming days, can I travel with Hon. 2567 and Her Highness Mary?"
Bosco signaled Kieran to check the scroll before he spoke with a smile.
However, a moment later …
"No!"
Kieran rejected decisively.
Bosco was stunned and looked at Kieran with a puzzled expression.
PS: Second update ~
