The attacker's appearance was very sudden.
The dagger stabbed Anxico's back almost instantaneously.
However, Kieran was faster.
Before the dagger could land, he delivered a kick to Anxico's neck.
Kacha!
After the clear sound of his neck breaking, Anxico fell limply on the sofa, a small dagger falling out from his sleeve. The attacker was stunned.
This was different from their plan.
Shouldn't Kieran be the one to stop him and save Anxico, only to be ambushed by Anxico instead?
How did things turn out this way?
Confusion rumbled in the attacker's mind.
The attacker's confusion did not stop Kieran from throwing out another kick.
Bang!
The kick landed on the attacker's head, and under Kieran's purposeful control of his strength, he fell limply on the floor without making any noise, no longer breathing.
Starbeck came out from the inner room and looked at the scene in confusion.
Even though Anxico's body swiftly changed into the one who claimed to be Eddy, Starbeck was still puzzled.
"How did you know?"
Starbeck asked.
"There are too many flaws.
This guy should be pretending to be a member of some secret organization, but I've never seen anyone from a secret organization be this straightforward and straightforward.
"Even if he purposely imitated a knight's code of conduct, he still had to learn to change the poison hidden in his body. The smell of the poison hidden in his body is basically the same as Eddy's poison. I don't think this is a coincidence."
Kieran wouldn't hide such things from his teammates.
As he explained, he took out a faintly pungent poison from Anxico's pocket.
Then, an orange glowing loot floated up from Anxico's body.
It was also a potion.
[Name: Disguise Potion]
[Type: Potion]
[Rarity: Rare]
[Attribute: After drinking, you will transform into the person you want to be within 3 hours!]
[Prerequisite: None]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remark: This is a high level usage of Potionology]
[Note: You will only transform into that person's appearance, but you won't have that person's abilities and voice will not change]
…
"A decent potion!"
Looking at the potion in his hand, Kieran commented.
Even though it had its flaws, it could still play a powerful role in crucial moments.
"Pack up."
"We need to leave!"
Kieran said quickly when he heard the sound of horse hooves.
"They are the guests you are waiting for?"
Starbeck asked.
"Not at first, but now."
"That guy is very cautious!"
"Every single time, he didn't really show himself but used others to test the waters. But what that bastard didn't know was that the more he tested the waters, the more flaws he would expose — there shouldn't be a lot of people in Thorn Temple who could command such spies."
Kieran replied.
He didn't answer the question.
Starbeck was curious but he wasn't one to get to the bottom of things.
Faced with Kieran's answer, he did not continue to pursue the matter. Instead, he sped up the cleaning process.
Two minutes later, when Kieran and Starbeck left the stable, a group of city guards riders appeared.
The riders surrounded the hotel heavily.
Kieran glanced over the scene and signaled Starbeck to hurry up.
He didn't have time to waste on these unimportant people anymore.
No matter how many people he killed, Mizzle wouldn't care.
He would only make a move on the things that Mizzle truly cared about.
…
Atrina was a little surprised when she received Mizzle's request for a meeting.
She never thought Mizzle would appear in front of her again.
After all, after Mizzle failed his last mission, vanishing without a trace was the best choice.
"What the hell?"
Atrina left the room with doubts in her heart and headed out of the temple.
As for the danger?
She wasn't worried at all.
The reason why she chose Mizzle was because Mizzle wasn't a threat to her.
After leaving the temple district, Atrina saw Mizzle under a tree in the council district.
Mizzle was wearing a clean and fitting outfit after changing out of his mantle.
At least he wasn't that eye-catching in the council district.
"You dare appear before me again?!"
Atrina walked up to Mizzle angrily, glaring at him.
Obviously, the temple deacon pushed the blame of his current predicament onto Mizelle.
However, out of Atrina's expectation, Mizzle didn't show any fear on his face.
Quite the opposite, Mizzle asked calmly.
"My lord, he asked me to ask you who you met after you returned to the temple yesterday.
High ranking personnel, at least able to command the secret agents of Thorn Temple. "
"My lord?
You … You are … "
Atrina was stunned.
Then, she looked at Mizzle in shock.
Atrina wasn't an idiot, so she immediately knew who her lord was.
Kieran!
Only Kieran fit the description.
But it was hard for her to accept the truth!
If Mizzle was Kieran's man, then …
Wouldn't everything about her be under Kieran's control?!
Once she thought about how her clever arrangements were all under Kieran's watch, a deep sense of helplessness rose in her heart, it even turned into heavy despair that drowned her.
"How … How is this possible?"
The temple deacon thought he was smart and made a series of connections. He muttered to himself.
"My lord is omnipotent."
Mizzle said as a matter of fact.
The controlled Mizzle treated Kieran as a God from the bottom of his heart, so such a reply wasn't a problem.
However, when the conversation and expression between the two fell into a certain someone's eyes, a huge problem arose.
"Yesterday …"
Atrina forced herself to calm down and recall what happened yesterday.
However, the moment the words escaped her mouth, a gust of wind blew over.
Atrina and Mizzle were knocked out without any resistance.
Reppu looked down at the two unconscious men.
"I knew it!
That's it!
How could he be a commoner if he could provide me with such help? "
Reppu muttered to himself.
Then, he grabbed the two unconscious men and headed towards the civilian district.
The whole process was completed in less than a second.
The people around didn't even notice.
And on the way, no one would notice.
As the Chief Knight of Thorn Temple, Reppu might be young but his strength was outstanding. Not only was he good in direct combat, but he also had an unexpected [Undercover] technique.
But what was even more shocking was his identity.
When Reppu entered a hidden hideout in the civilian district, the Emerald Rock killers who were waiting for him stood up and bowed.
