Fuung!
Kieran's kick was like a heavy hammer being swung around.
It didn't just produce an air-breaking noise that caused one's expression to change, the strong wind it brought even blew the woman's hood up.
The face under the hood didn't disappoint the men who were attracted to her before. Fair skin, beautiful facial features, especially her light blue eyes, it was enough to attract the attention of the opposite sex, even the same sex would be intoxicated by it.
Her long grayish blonde hair was weaved into a garland on top of her head and the rest of her hair was draped over her shoulders.
However, it didn't change Kieran's attack at all.
To Kieran, regardless of man or woman, as long as he couldn't confirm the identity of the target, the target was unknown and was confirmed as an enemy, he wouldn't show any mercy.
Aisphany was shocked by such a strike.
She had never thought that a young man would directly attack her.
The words that were at the tip of her tongue were swallowed back by force.
But what angered Aisphany even more was that her plans had been disrupted.
Aisphany looked at Kieran in dissatisfaction.
Under her beautiful face, the dissatisfaction in her light blue eyes wasn't hateful, instead, it would make one feel delighted.
But …
A rose had thorns.
A beauty was lethal.
Anyone who was delighted at such a moment would not live to see the next sunrise.
A translucent defensive force field appeared around Aisphany.
An even stronger formless energy was gathering in Aisphany's hand.
The defensive barrier was shattered by Kieran's kick. The formless energy gushed out like a torrent, canceling out Kieran's relentless kick and trying to drown Kieran.
However, Aisphany soon realized it was wishful thinking!
Let alone drowning Kieran, even stopping Kieran's kick was difficult.
Kieran's seemingly casual kick was like a sharp blade, slicing the torrent and arriving in front of Aisphany.
The formless energy saved Aisphany's life.
In the nick of time, Kieran pulled Aisphany's body to the side.
Pa!
Kieran's foot brushed past Aisphany, and the wind created by the tremendous force directly blew off Aisphany's meticulously braided hair.
"Bastard!"
A low shout came from outside.
A tall figure wielding a greatsword charged in.
It was as if the Knight was charging.
Menacing and peerlessly mighty.
Then …
Kieran sent the man flying with a kick even faster than he was.
Boom!
After breaking through the security office's main door, he crashed into the mayor's office on the side. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
Aisphany was about to gather her formless energy to attack Kieran when she saw her companion's reaction, but she quickly raised her hands.
A long and narrow sword floated in front of her.
The tip of the sword reached her throat.
The aura of death!
It was the first time Aisphany felt such a despairing aura.
Her mind went blank and she couldn't help but tremble.
"D-don't kill me."
Almost instinctively, Aisphany said.
Then, Aisphany saw a pair of eyes that were calm to the point of coldness.
What kind of eyes were those?!
Aisphany couldn't see any emotions in those eyes. There wasn't the joy of victory, the anger of being interrupted, and the fear of the unknown.
But Aisphany felt the coldness that seeped into her bones.
'He wants to kill me!'
The thought suddenly appeared in Aisphany's heart.
Mixed with the aura of death, Aisphany almost started to hallucinate after being assaulted by the aura.
A wolf.
A lone wolf roaming the wilderness, howling at the moon.
"T-This is the person you are looking for?!
How is this possible?!
How could he help you?! "
Aisphany almost suffocated under the hallucination, but her stiff mind didn't make her make the wrong choice.
"Starbeck!"
Aisphany uttered the name in an almost shrieking manner.
[Dandelion's Pierce]'s blade had pierced through Aisphany's neck, fresh blood flowing down the blade.
The long and narrow blade was shaking non-stop, as if it was eager to drink Aisphany's blood.
However, it didn't move an inch forward.
Because Kieran wouldn't allow it.
Under Kieran's absolute will, [Dandelion's Pierce] spun around Kieran twice with a trembling noise before vanishing into the shadows.
Aisphany, who just escaped from the shadow of death, didn't even have the time to heave a breath of relief before she was picked up.
Her neck was grabbed by Kieran and dragged in front of him.
Aisphany trembled again when she saw Kieran's face in front of her.
"Y-You …"
"Where is he?"
Kieran interrupted the man's meaningless words.
"What?"
Aisphany was stunned, unable to react to the situation.
"I said, where is Starbeck?"
Kieran repeated.
"Oh my God!
"That guy really knows you?!"
Oh my God!
You two are really as close as that guy said … "
Aisphany expressed her astonishment with two consecutive exclamations.
But right after that, she started to regret her words.
The hand that grabbed her neck was placed on her neck and it was instantly shrunk to a certain limit.
Aisphany didn't doubt that the man before her would snap her neck if he exerted a little more strength.
Likewise, Aisphany didn't doubt that the man before her would show mercy to her.
Pak Pak!
Aisphany slapped Kieran's arm and signaled Kieran with her eyes.
"Cough Cough … I don't know where that guy is either, I'm just delivering a letter to you at his request … Cough Cough …"
Kieran slightly loosened his hand and Aisphany coughed repeatedly.
However, even as she coughed, Aisphany still told Kieran about Starbeck.
"Where's the letter?"
Kieran asked.
"It's in my backpack!"
The moment Aisphany finished, she was thrown on the ground and her backpack landed in Kieran's hand.
A sealed letter appeared in Kieran's hand.
The backpack wasn't returned to Aisphany though.
Because inside her backpack, Kieran found some items that should have belonged to Starbeck.
Kieran raised a brow and started to check the letter.
Things had to be prioritized.
He knew what he had to do.
After checking, the letter was opened.
I'm fine.
But the situation is special.
Do what you think.
I will always support you.
Saint Ann Calendar: 1182, Summer
…
It was just a few sentences and the words were scribbled but both of them purposely prepared a secret note.
"Very well, I'm safe for the time being, it won't endanger my life but the situation is special … Something unexpected happened?
And you know I'm in Shatterstone Town but you can't move around freely … "
Comparing the secret words between both of them, Kieran folded the letter and carefully put it into his backpack.
Then, he squinted his eyes at Aisphany.
"I'll give you a chance to explain why Starbeck's things are in your backpack."
