The malicious gazes were too obvious!
Even though they were hiding in the dark, in Kieran's senses, they felt like they were real.
And it wasn't just one!
There were at least four of them!
Some were direct and some were subtle.
Under the malicious gazes, Kieran's arm even had a layer of goosebumps.
"Not only the Graven Society is obsessed with the bounty from the Elder Council but the other mystics of Edland City as well? And they even planted a sufficient amount of informants around Teresa! "
Kieran was very sure of it.
Otherwise, the people who came for the bounty from the Elder Council wouldn't have collapsed the road ahead of time and forced them to choose this bumpy path.
No doubt the mystics of Edland City had put in quite a lot of effort.
It wasn't hard to know Teresa's itinerary but knowing in advance and making the necessary preparations wasn't easy.
According to Teresa's vigilant character.
At least, she would need a familiar face.
Plus the key word "body".
An image of a middle-aged man in a white coat appeared in Kieran's mind.
"Teresa, I think when we get back to Edland City, you should really break the teeth of that off-staff morgue guard in the forensics department and it would be even better if you break one of his fingers."
Kieran said slowly.
Teresa who was concentrating on driving in order to deal with the bad road conditions was stunned when she heard what Kieran said.
"There's a problem with the collapsed road?"
Teresa quickly reacted to Kieran's words.
"The collapsed road is not a problem and the staff is real too but if we continue driving like this, we might run into trouble!"
"Stop the car!"
Kieran said.
After fighting side by side multiple times, Kieran's performance was enough for Teresa to trust Kieran even more.
Without a second thought, Teresa stepped on the brake.
The car stopped steadily but because of the inertia, Teresa bumped her forehead on the steering wheel.
Though, Teresa didn't care about her bruised forehead, her eyes were staring at the front of the car.
Under the illumination of the headlights, what should have been a bumpy road suddenly disappeared, replaced by a steep cliff.
The distance between the car and the cliff was less than a meter.
"How could this be?!"
The sudden change stunned Teresa.
In order to make sure she wasn't hallucinating because of the crash, Teresa shook her head hard but the cliff in her sight didn't change at all, it was still right in front of her.
Teresa's expression changed.
She was scared.
In the face of the fear of death, there was no shame in any fear.
Whoosh, whoosh.
Teresa took a few rapid breaths before looking at Kieran.
Teresa desperately needed a reasonable explanation to resist the fear in her heart.
"It's not a very advanced illusion, but it can still affect a normal person's vision."
"Especially when it's mixed with some drugs!"
As he spoke, Kieran raised his hand.
A white radiance bloomed from his hand, enveloping a radius of 20 meters.
Immediately, the faint black gas had nowhere to hide.
Then, the radiance became even more dazzling, and the black gas disappeared in an instant.
[Detect Poison]!
[Expel Poison]!
"T-This?"
Teresa widened her eyes unconsciously.
Kieran smiled but didn't say anything else. He raised his hand and placed it on Teresa's swollen forehead, his fingertips were shining brightly.
The swollen bruises were swiftly healed.
When Kieran's finger left Teresa's forehead, her forehead was already smooth.
[Healing Technique]!
"K-Knight! Knight!"
A shivering voice suddenly came from the darkness outside the car.
His voice was clearly transmitted into the car and Teresa heard it clearly.
"Knight?"
Teresa muttered to herself as she asked.
Kieran had already opened the door and came down from the car.
"There are many mystical things in the mystical realm but you shouldn't be afraid of them because from the beginning to the end, they are also following their own rules. Maybe the rules are unfamiliar and complicated, to the point that commoners can't believe it, to the point that commoners can't record it or grasp it!
Then … "
"Let's change the rules!
We'll use the same rule as the common world: the strong rule! "
Kieran stood beside the car door and said word by word.
When the last word subsided, the light in Kieran's hand shone brightly again.
Different from the previous light, the light this time was much brighter. With Kieran's body as the center, everything within a 9-meter radius was dazzling.
Kieran's coat and pants were instantly dyed white by the light.
His black hair and black eyes were also dyed a faint silver under the light.
Light!
Holy!
Teresa's heart suddenly came up with such a thought when she saw Kieran at the moment.
Even more so when a couple of ghost-like figures suddenly appeared in the dazzling white light and retreated in a hurry. Kieran, who was standing beside the car, gave off an inviolable, holy, and awe-inspiring feeling.
Then, Kieran dashed into the darkness under Teresa's gaze.
Under the dazzling light, the darkness swiftly retreated.
It revealed the people hiding in the darkness.
The people looked terrified and didn't know what to do.
They saw Kieran's back as he charged forward with an indomitable will. They saw the attackers who should have bared their fangs in the darkness, causing them to retreat in panic.
Suddenly, Teresa heaved a long sigh.
In her mind, she recalled the knowledge she had about knights when she was young.
"Brave and fearless!
Protect the weak! "
Teresa muttered softly.
The memories of his childhood became clearer as he murmured to himself.
She remembered her childhood goal.
Wasn't it to be like Kieran, brave and fearless to protect the weak?
Back then, wasn't it because of this goal that she became a police officer?
The last bit of fear towards the mystical realm in her eyes started to fade away.
The nightmarish scene in her mind was also shattered.
Teresa pushed the car door open.
She wanted to fight.
Although she couldn't control the whole battle like Kieran, her shooting skills could at least provide support.
The car door was pushed open.
Teresa with her gun came down from the car.
However, Kieran was already back.
Kieran ended the battle with a speed that far exceeded Teresa's imagination.
He slowly walked back with a body of dazzling radiance. When he saw Teresa come down from the car with a gun in her hand, Kieran couldn't hold back his smile.
"Your ability to accept new things is much stronger than you think!"
Kieran said.
Teresa felt dazzled when she saw Kieran smiling under the radiance. It was like she realized for the first time that Kieran had a charm that far exceeded his usual self under the radiance.
Teresa's heart couldn't help but speed up.
"Of course!"
I'm just … "
Before Teresa could finish, she realized her arm was grabbed by Kieran. Then, an irresistible force pulled her behind Kieran.
Teresa's line of sight was completely occupied by Kieran's shining back.
Teresa's face was completely flushed when she saw Kieran's back.
However, her vigilance prevented her from getting carried away.
Teresa tiptoed and looked over Kieran's shoulder.
A figure was standing beside the car without her knowing.
