Carlhart who was facing [Spirit of the White Wolf] was barely able to maintain a stalemate but with the addition of [Serpent Spirit], the stalemate was shattered completely.
The twin-headed serpent spirit that was shifting between its real and ethereal form ignored Carlhart's attacks and wrapped itself around him tightly.
The giant white wolf leapt up and bit Carlhart's throat in a single bite.
Tsssss!
Blood gushed out from the torn throat.
Carlhart's unwilling roar was suppressed in his chest with nowhere to vent. Bolts of electric sparks burst out from all over his body in a much stronger manner.
But …
It was completely useless.
After the white wolf succeeded in its first strike, it leaped up and widened the distance between them.
The twin-headed serpent spirit then transformed into its ethereal form and dived into the ground.
The electric sparks danced like a silver snake and thunder rumbled.
A layer of white light enveloped Carlhart completely.
Then …
KABOOM!
An explosion occurred!
With Carlhart as the center, a 10-meter radius of the explosion was scorched earth.
An orange glowing item was floating in the middle of the explosion.
The white wolf picked up the item with its mouth and ran towards Kieran.
[Name: Thunder Fall Stone]
[Type: Gemstone]
[Rarity: Rare]
[Attribute:???]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remark: You will need to find a professional to appraise it!]
…
After passing the special gemstone to Kieran, the white wolf vanished from the Mutants' sight but the twin-headed serpent spirit didn't.
The twin-headed serpent spirit crawled out from the ground again and crawled in front of Kieran.
Kieran walked up to one of the serpent heads and glanced over the Mutants who were still in shock.
"When will the banquet begin?"
Kieran asked.
The Mutants who hadn't recovered from Carlhart's death couldn't answer the question.
The sudden scene had made them lose their sense of propriety.
But there was one Mutant who didn't.
Eander!
This dwarf Mutant ran all the way to the twin-headed serpent spirit and bowed humbly.
"Your Highness, the banquet will begin soon!
"Please follow me!"
Eander tried to speak in a calm tone.
Though his voice was slightly trembling.
It wasn't nervousness!
It was excitement!
It knew it had made the right bet!
This meant that it had struck gold!
Especially now that Carlhart was dead, it was simply too advantageous for him.
One of the ten seats was empty … Why couldn't it sit there?
As long as he followed closely behind His Highness!
Eander instinctively looked at Kieran who had a calm expression.
He couldn't help but recall the scenes from before.
Then, he realized with utter shock that from the start until the end, His Highness didn't really make a move, all he did was summon some animal spirits to fight Carlhart.
Most importantly, His Highness actually won!
Eander wasn't the only one who noticed it.
The remaining high-ranking Mutants of the camp also noticed this.
They all sucked in a breath of cold air.
Looking at the figure walking on the snake, his expression changed again and quickly became one of respect.
Just like what Carlhart had said, 'one's temper will be suppressed by one's strength'.
Among all the Mutants present, Carlhart was no doubt the strongest. The rest of them were all slightly weaker than Carlhart, otherwise, he wouldn't have been appointed as the commander of the military camp.
So, they knew what kind of attitude they should show towards Kieran who killed Carlhart without even lifting a finger.
Through the senses of the cardinal sins, Kieran clearly felt the changes.
He couldn't help but smile.
It was exactly what he wanted!
The reason why he came to Carlhart Military Camp wasn't to use the identity of the Royals to negotiate but to take over the entire camp.
Because Kieran was very clear that Carlhart Military Camp must be related to a certain someone in countless ways.
Through Carlhart Military Camp, he would be able to find that certain someone.
That was the first point!
The second point!
He needed a force and strength that could make that certain someone take him seriously.
It wasn't like the previous battles where no one saw or didn't know the truth.
This time, Kieran wanted to show off.
It was a display of his' strength '.
If it was possible, Kieran didn't want to do that.
He was more used to hiding himself and using his opponent's contempt to gain an easier victory but he didn't have the time to search for and save Herbert.
The main mission only had 60 days!
Including the time needed to reach the military camp, almost a tenth of the time had passed!
Plus the time needed to travel to the Emperor's place of legacy, he was really strapped for time.
So, he hoped that Herbert could 'see the reality'.
Otherwise …
Kieran would have to teach that guy the cruelty of reality!
Eander and the other Mutants who were walking under the twin-headed snake spirit suddenly felt a chill. Instinctively, they looked up at the figure who was standing proudly at the top, their hearts couldn't help but beat fast.
It was killing intent!
The Mutants were certain of it.
But because of the confirmation, they looked at each other in dismay, their faces were at a loss of what to do.
They didn't know who would be the unlucky one.
Hopefully, it wouldn't be them.
Each of the Mutants had the same thought in their minds.
The welcoming banquet started in such an anxious and uneasy atmosphere.
The banquet maintained the tradition of the Neegor Dynasty: extravagance!
From the small decorations, the utensils, to the selection of food, everything was based on the label.
Although it was impossible to truly restore the style of the Neegor Dynasty, when Kieran sat on the main seat, he was still shocked by the hundreds of dishes in front of him.
Fortunately, none of the Mutants dared to look directly at Kieran whose eyes were glowing in rainbow colors.
Keeping his astonishment in check, Kieran started the dinner with the help of the maidservant.
A hundred dishes, one bite at a time.
Each time he swapped, he would rinse his mouth with warm water, trying his best to taste the exquisite taste of the hundred dishes.
Besides, Kieran didn't even have to do it himself.
The maidservant finished everything.
Whether it was the food or the mouthwash, everything was delivered to Kieran's mouth.
However, it didn't make Kieran feel satisfied, enjoyable or relaxed. Quite the contrary, he felt unusually troublesome and impatient.
Kieran didn't conceal his emotions.
It made the maidservant who served Kieran even more frightened, her hand that held the knife and fork started to shake non-stop.
Kieran raised a brow.
He glanced over the Mutants standing on both sides of the dining table but it was impossible for them to sit down — because there was only one chair in the entire hall, and it was right under Kieran.
Even Rayhart and Retsu who had the closest relationship with Kieran only stood behind Kieran.
However, both of them didn't show any dissatisfaction.
Instead, they were feeling honored.
Looking at the pitiful fellas standing on both sides of the dining table and the way they didn't even dare to breathe loudly, it made both of them feel the greatness of the lord they served.
It was too wonderful!
The two of them who were dominated said in their heart.
But for the other Mutants, including Kieran, it was a kind of torture.
The silent banquet continued.
Other than the occasional knife and fork touching the plate, there was no other sound.
Every time the sound of a knife and fork hitting a plate was heard, some of the Xenogeneics present would shudder. It was as if they were frightened.
Time felt extremely long at that moment.
The Mutants prayed one after another.
They hoped that the banquet would end sooner.
The prayers seemed to be effective.
