Report

Kieran knew who his biggest enemy was at the moment.

So, he didn't just have to complete the sub-mission [The Sheriff's Second Step] and clean up the whole town, he also had to locate 'Modi's' men who were hiding in the dark.

Kieran believed 'Modi' must have planted a spy in Shatterstone Town.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have known Holler's whereabouts like the back of his hand.

If it was anyone else, they would be extra careful when facing a chess piece like Holler.

Holler might be a small town mayor, but Shatterstone Town was quite unique in the area.

However, Shatterstone Town was an unusual place in the vicinity. It was located at the end of the starting point of Supreme Road and was right next to Burning Dawn's military camp.

Such a geographical location had determined Holler's unusual position.

In fact, Kieran suspected that if Holler wasn't a wounded soldier of Burning Dawn, would he be able to smoothly become the mayor of Shatterstone Town?

The seemingly fair election was actually decided by the higher-ups.

Just like 'Modi's' spy, he might seem smart and good at hiding but his eyes were blinded by greed.

Relying on his dwarf-like body, Old Peeker easily hid in the shadows and looked at the mayor's office further away.

Old Peeker's eyes showed struggle.

If he wanted to truly get the reward, he must get closer to the mayor's office.

However, Holler's strength caused him to be extremely cautious.

Old Peeker knew what his advantages were, it was none other than the convenience of his identity and his body. As for fighting and hiding, they weren't his strong suit.

He didn't even have any fighting capabilities.

Old Peeker knew it very well but he still chose to take the risk.

The new guy that came today was too scary.

Old Peeker didn't want to stay in the town anymore and deal with that guy.

He was worried that he would expose himself in front of Kieran sooner or later.

"Screw it!"

With the thought in mind, Old Peeker moved his feet.

However, after a single step, Old Peeker froze on the spot.

What did he see?

Kieran!

Kieran had appeared in front of him out of nowhere.

"M-Lord sheriff, good evening.

"I came here to visit Mayor Hall."

I heard he was bewitched, it's really scary. "

Old Peeker was stunned for a moment before he reacted to the situation and said with a sigh.

"Yeah.

"It is indeed terrifying. Then …"

"Can you tell me accurate information about this terrible person?"

Kieran nodded and glanced at Old Peeker.

If it wasn't for Kieran's powerful perception that allowed him to confirm that the other party had been hiding here for a long time, he might have really thought that he had bumped into the other party by chance.

"What did you say?"

"I don't understand."

Old Peeker's face was filled with confusion.

"He's bait."

"To lure out the person controlling him in the dark. I believe that person will be curious about what method I used to wake Holler up so quickly."

"They might not show themselves out of caution, but they will definitely send a spy in Shatterstone Town."

Kieran pointed at the mayor's office.

Old Peeker's face changed.

But the inn owner didn't want to admit it.

"I really don't know what you're talking about."

"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."

Old Peeker then turned around and left.

Kieran, of course, wouldn't let Old Peeker leave. A single chop from his hand knocked Old Peeker out. After grabbing Old Peeker by the collar, Kieran turned his attention to the shadow further away.

Kieran's eyes were as calm and tranquil as usual.

However, it was the calm and tranquil gaze that pressured the person in the shadow.

2 to 3 seconds later, the person in the shadow walked out.

"Don't misunderstand, I am not the person you are talking about or his subordinate.

"I followed the guy in your hand here out of curiosity."

The person was a young man, slightly older than Volgen, but his lips still had fine hair.

The young man had short hair, a common face, and a pair of gray eyes, similar to the dark brown leather armor on his body, it was also a common design.

However, there was a longsword on each side of the young man's waist.

It seemed like the young man was a dual wielder.

Kieran kept his gaze away from the young man.

Then …

A quick dodge and a chop from his hand.

Kieran wasn't interested in the young man's explanation and he didn't want to use words to test whether the young man was telling the truth or not.

Kieran had a simpler way to tell.

"Wait …"

Snacker's face turned sour when he saw Kieran vanish.

Snacker never thought Kieran was such a reckless person.

Kieran was obviously different from the one he heard about.

Kieran was much stronger!

Even though Snacker tried his best to dodge, he still felt the wind behind his head was getting closer.

A bitter smile appeared on Snacker's face.

Snacker knew he would soon receive endless mockery from those bastards.

However, the most bitter thing was the fact that he couldn't even take a single hit from Kieran.

However, soon enough, Snacker wasn't bitter anymore.

Souuu!

An arrow broke through the air and was fired at Kieran's arm.

Based on the arrow's trajectory, if Kieran continued to swing his arm, the arrow would surely perforate his arm.

Holding the bow in his hand, Blu smirked and another arrow appeared in his hand.

He already predicted what would happen next.

Kieran would surely dodge and fall into Blu's endless shooting range.

"Although you are a sharpshooter!

But I am not weaker than you! "

Blu thought proudly.

Back in Shatterstone Town, when Kieran shot arrows with his bow, the people around him gasped in admiration. It made the famous sharpshooter in Dawn City feel unconvinced.

He thought he was not weaker than Kieran.

He might even be better than Kieran.

However, he didn't get the glory he deserved. It was like that in Dawn City. People would only say that it was because of Kieran's disappearance that they gained fame and not because of their hard work.

Blu was unconvinced about that.

However, Kieran had already disappeared and he couldn't do anything about it.

Now, Kieran appeared in Shatterstone Town.

He wouldn't give up on this chance.

He couldn't accept the fact that Kieran was always on top of him.

Blu quickly adjusted his breath and allowed himself to enter his peak condition.

He wanted to prove himself.

The bowstring was pulled back again.

His fingers that held the arrow were firm and strong, yet he didn't let go.

Kieran didn't even dodge when he threw out his palm.

Ding!

The arrow accurately hit Kieran's palm.

His fair palm didn't bleed at all, not even a red mark was left.

Quite the opposite, the arrow was deflected away.

Pak!

Kieran's hand chop landed on Snacker's neck. He then grabbed the deflected arrow and threw it towards the direction where the arrow came from.

Blu was shocked.

He quickly let go of his fingers that held the arrow.

Souuu!

The arrow flew out rapidly and collided with the incoming arrow.

However, at the next moment, the arrow that was fired from the bow was deflected away by the arrow that Kieran threw.

It flew towards Blu with the remaining momentum.

Blu did a quick roll but he didn't completely dodge it.

Blu's shoulder was grazed.

Looking at his defenseless leather armor and his torn shoulder, Blu stood up with a dejected look, wanting to say something.

However, before Blu could speak, Kieran's hand chop landed on the back of his neck.

Then …
