The Gods were gazing at him carelessly.
With his SSS rank Intuition, Kieran clearly felt it.
Pressure!
Unparalleled pressure!
He felt like he was powerless and surrounded by a pack of wolves.
The feeling was terrible.
Kieran was sure if it wasn't for his Strong I rank Spirit, he would have knelt down on the ground, shivering.
"What a scary God!"
Kieran commented again in his heart.
Compared to the blurry impression he had before, the comment before his eyes was a lot more accurate.
When that bolt of lightning appeared, Kieran's comment was even more accurate.
The difference was like heaven and earth!
Unbeatable!
The thought popped up in Kieran's mind instantly.
If the Gods before were wolves, the God of Thunder that appeared later was a ferocious tiger.
It was a gigantic multicolored tiger!
Even though it was just the beginning, it made Kieran clench his fists unconsciously.
He slightly raised his head and saw the dark clouds disperse, revealing the clear blue sky, feeling the comfort of the warm sunlight on his body.
His clenched fists didn't loosen.
Quite the opposite, they clenched even tighter.
Kieran suddenly realized he had a new goal.
A goal that seemed ridiculous but was very real and fit his thoughts perfectly.
He hoped he could stand tall in the sky.
He wouldn't look down on the living.
But he didn't want to be one of the living that was looked down on.
Even the Gods …
Wouldn't do!
Huu!
Kieran took in a deep breath and quickly put away the thoughts in his heart.
Ambition wasn't a bad thing.
But without the corresponding strength, exposing one's ambition would be the worst thing to do.
His mouth corner curled up into a smile again. Kieran looked down at Atrina.
Atrina was a little dodging Kieran's gaze, her face still showing panic, but it was gone in a flash and returned to normal.
Then, Kieran noticed Atrina's gaze had turned fiery when she returned his gaze.
"This is also Tiki's doing?"
Kieran quietly raised a brow and played along.
As they stared at each other, Atrina's heart beat faster and faster.
Not only was her face red, but it was also burning hot.
As she looked at Kieran, she couldn't help but think of Kieran's valiant and heroic bearing.
Atrina had long since known how powerful Kieran was.
However, he did not expect Kieran to be so powerful.
One against a hundred.
The Knight of the Temple of Wealth was completely wiped out.
Atrina had never even dreamt of such a thing.
But it really happened in front of his eyes.
Charge!
The unparalleled impact made Atrina's breath quicken. She wanted to take one more look at Kieran, who caused all of this.
The more she looked, the more she wanted to take another look.
Atrina noticed that something was wrong with her.
However, the subtle changes in her body caused her to unconsciously ignore that something was wrong.
Even a few hours ago, she kept warning herself not to be deceived by Kieran.
Now, all she wanted to do was to look at Kieran like that.
Then, she would let time drag on.
Both of them stared at each other and Atrina shyly avoided the gaze.
When she noticed the Thorn Temple priest and the Knight were looking at them, Atrina felt even more shy. However, she wasn't Starbeck, she didn't have the instinct to avoid the gaze. She grabbed Kieran's hand and walked towards Thorn Temple.
"Sir Ryan."
As Kieran approached, the three priests and the Knight of Thorn Temple bowed at Kieran.
The former was the bowing priest salute.
The latter was the clenched fist Knight salute.
A powerful man would gain favor from the opposite sex and admiration from the same sex.
Especially when the man was on the same side and saved the man's life, the admiration would spread like a virus.
Just look at the young Knight with fanatical gazes.
If it wasn't for their identities forbidding them, they might have asked Kieran whether he needed a follower or not.
Still, it didn't stop the young Knight's passion.
No less than a dozen young Knight invited Kieran to hunt together. More of the older Knight invited Kieran to learn martial arts from Kieran — it wasn't a provocation but a sincere request.
Kieran accepted every single one of the invitations with a smile and didn't reject a single one.
However, he rejected every single one of the invitations to hunt.
The young Knight weren't angered by the rejection.
Quite the contrary, they sent similar invitations as well.
This time around, Kieran didn't reject and accepted every single one of them.
When the elder priest walked up to Kieran, Kieran had accepted almost all the invitations from the Knight.
"Ryan, believe me, this will only make all your spare time even busier."
Edersen said with a smile.
"Being busy means being fulfilled.
Compared to idling around, I prefer to use my free time to hone my skills and I don't mind discussing everything with others. "
Kieran replied.
"A truly powerful person must have something outstanding about him."
The elder shaman sighed.
Then, his face turned serious.
"Ryan, follow me."
The archpriest and officiant want to see you. "
The elder priest said.
"Very well."
Kieran nodded.
Under Atrina and the other Knight's gazes, Kieran followed the elder priest up the stairs of Thorn Temple.
There were a total of 212 stairs.
It was made of gold and embedded with the black gravel that Lady Thorn loved.
The black gravel was known as the Stone of Fate.
Legend said that anyone who touched the black gravel would see their own fate in their mind.
The deacon of Thorn Temple's most important job was to clean the gravel.
Of course, they wouldn't use cloth or anything like that but their own hands.
Whenever something happened, it would be recorded in the Book of Fate that was placed at the entrance of Thorn Temple.
The Book of Fate was 3 meters tall and a few thousand pages thick. Half of it was already written and when it was fully written, Lady Thorn would take it back to her divine kingdom and grant a new Book of Fate to the deacon.
Whenever that happened, it would be the biggest celebration of Thorn Temple.
The last celebration was 50 years ago.
This time, based on the progress, it would take another 50 years to complete.
Following Edersen, Kieran went around the Book of Fate that was placed at the entrance of the temple and his sight suddenly opened up.
A hall that was 3 times bigger than a football field appeared before his eyes.
There weren't any decorations around the hall but the space alone was enough to astonish one.
It was just the hall.
If it was in a common house, it would be the entrance or the corridor.
A wagon was parked in front of Kieran's entrance.
Kieran boarded the wagon after the elder priest signaled him to.
A priest acted as the wagoner and 30 minutes later, the wagon arrived at the core area of Thorn Temple: the prayer room.
Two elderly men had been waiting for Kieran.
"Archpriest, Lord Officiant."
The elder priest bowed respectfully the moment he got off the wagon.
The archpriest was an elderly with white hair and beard. His body was a little hunched and even though he looked stern, he couldn't hide his exhaustion.
The officiant was a middle-aged man with a slender body and a scholarly temperament.
However, similar to the archpriest, he looked stern and exhausted as well.
It seemed like the two of them paid quite a price to 'support' Lady Thorn.
With the speculations in his heart, Kieran saluted the two of them with a Knight's salute.
The moment Kieran saluted, a layer of brilliance enveloped Kieran.
