Kieran didn't answer her.
His eyes were scanning the faint mist around him.
The seemingly thin mist didn't just block his sight, it carried a certain level of poison. Even though the main point of attack landed near the dining table where Kieran was, the remaining poison still paralyzed the commoners around him and caused them to fall to the ground.
Anne Aldrich Augen in Kieran's arms wasn't an exception either.
Although she didn't pass out, her body was stiff and her eyes widened.
She looked around with slight fear.
Especially because of the angle, she saw the attacker behind Kieran but she couldn't warn him, the fear in her eyes grew denser.
Anne Aldrich Augen wasn't a naive woman.
She knew very well what would happen to her once Kieran was finished.
One more time was enough for her.
She didn't want to try it again for the rest of her life.
No!
She couldn't let this happen!
Anne Aldrich Augen was extremely unwilling when she thought about the goal she achieved through countless hardships. She shouldn't suffer such a fate again.
She didn't want her life to end in such a gloomy way before she even started to enjoy it.
She must warn Kieran!
The thought in her heart made Anne Aldrich Augen try her best to twist her body.
Even if it was just a sliver of hope.
However, the effect of the poison was too strong for a commoner. Even though Anne Aldrich Augen tried her best, her body didn't budge an inch.
Just when Anne Aldrich Augen was in despair, Kieran moved.
Or more precisely, Kieran launched a backward kick at his opponent.
Bang!
The ambusher, who had silently approached, was kicked away with the sound of bones breaking and tendons snapping.
As the attacker crashed into the coffee shop behind him, it was like a signal. It was more like pouring a ladle of cold water into a pot of boiling oil. More attackers appeared in the mist.
"Kill!"
Amid the ferocious and cold roars, the attackers charged towards Kieran.
They weren't from the same organization.
Some of them were even meeting for the first time.
However, they had the same goal at the moment.
Kill Kieran and get a high bounty.
Although the Elder Council was crazy, they were extremely generous.
The value of that reward was enough to move anyone's heart.
Kieran took a step to the right when he saw the attacker charging at him. He tore the tablecloth from the table beside him and conveniently hung Anne Aldrich Augen on his back.
After the two corners of the tablecloth were tied to a dead knot in front of his chest, Kieran faced the incoming attacker. Instead of retreating, he charged forward.
With just two steps, Kieran arrived in front of the fastest attacker.
A head-on kick!
Bang!
Under the tremendous force, his bones let out a bone-chilling screech. The fastest attacker tumbled into the crowd behind him, bringing down several unlucky fellows who couldn't dodge in time. The crisp sound of bones breaking echoed.
Kieran didn't even look at the result. After his kick, he immediately grabbed the nearest guy with his right hand.
The oddly-shaped glove [Power Glory] shone brightly, activating [Hand of Gravity].
Kacha!
The attacker who was grabbed by the left arm by Kieran had his entire arm and muscles torn apart.
However, it wasn't the end.
The moment [Hand of Gravity] was activated, Kieran activated [Death Throw].
As expected, [Death Throw] was a success!
Wuuu!
Kieran grabbed the attacker whose left arm was completely crippled and spun him around, sending more people flying before lifting him high above his head.
Then, like throwing a javelin or a shot put, Kieran hurled the attacker towards the place with the most number of people.
Bang Bang Bang!
A series of crashing noises echoed on the street.
[Death Throw]'s crashing was much more terrifying than Kieran's kick because of its special effect.
This time, it wasn't just the broken bones and torn tendons.
It was …
Smashed into pieces!
It was as though a truck had crashed into a sturdy wall in front of them.
That badly mangled corpse was really unbearable to look at.
The attackers who were aggressive a moment ago.
Their aura stagnated at that moment, all of them halted their steps.
Looking at the bodies beside them and beneath their feet, the attackers who were blinded by the bounty started to wake up.
Some of them started to back off.
Even if they didn't back off, they started to hesitate.
The attackers were shocked and frightened by Kieran's methods.
Only one person was different.
Anne Aldrich Augen's eyes were shining brightly.
In fact, when Kieran tied Anne Aldrich Augen on his back, the Black Widow's gaze at Kieran changed.
It was a subtle change.
When Kieran dared to charge at dozens of attackers alone, the subtle change started to become intense. Especially when Kieran was suppressing all the attackers, Anne Aldrich Augen's breath became hurried.
Soon, when she saw Kieran charging at the remaining attackers, Anne Aldrich Augen really wanted to scream out loud.
It wasn't fear.
It was excitement!
She was excited for her attackers to be annihilated!
However, with the presence of the poison, all Anne Aldrich Augen could do was make two soft nasal grunts and nothing else.
Kieran heard Anne Aldrich Augen's soft grunts but he didn't care.
His left hand wielded [Interrogator Knife] and right hand wielded [Dark Venom Dagger] as he continued to dash forward.
The two daggers were like the fangs of a venomous viper, slicing through the attackers' throats one after another.
None of the attackers were able to escape from Kieran's pursuit.
Even though Kieran was carrying a person on his back.
His speed was still too far for them to catch up.
He lost his head in panic.
Disbelief.
Begging and pleading.
It became the only expression on the attackers' faces after they died.
"I beg you, spare me, I … Aaaargh!"
Kieran's eyes were cold and merciless against the last person who begged for mercy, the dagger in his hand moved even faster.
Puk!
Blood splattered and the body fell to the ground.
It wasn't really merciless.
However, Kieran knew if he was the one who begged for mercy, Kieran would do the same.
Or even …
Even more ruthless!
Begging for the enemy's mercy was childish in itself.
More so, these people were nothing but bait that the spellcaster purposely put out to buy time.
That's right, bait!
Although the attackers had the advantage in numbers.
Their true strength was too weak to withstand a single blow.
They were stronger than common men but they didn't possess any mystical powers.
The previous scene wasn't their doing.
It was …
Kieran didn't stop and dashed into the mist.
In fact, after a few steps, he stopped.
His destination wasn't far away.
It was right in front of Mecathy and Borjane's bookstore.
A pale middle-aged man.
There were many spellcasting materials placed in front of him, his mouth was muttering incantations and his hands were forming secret hand signs.
When he saw Kieran appear, the middle-aged man's face turned paler and his forehead was covered in sweat.
The middle-aged man didn't expect Kieran to deal with his chess pieces so quickly.
Although he didn't think the chess pieces were worth his attention, even killing a chicken would take some effort, let alone a human.
And there were so many of them!
The man before him was a butcher, he had no mercy in his heart!
The thought suddenly entered the middle-aged man's mind when he saw Kieran walking over.
It made him even more nervous.
He mustered all his strength and didn't utter the incantation wrong, thus avoiding a backlash.
But that was it.
Kieran raised his right hand and grabbed the man's head, lifting him up from the ground.
Then, [Heavy Hand] was activated.
Kak!
The man's brain exploded.
Then, Kieran swung his hand.
