Chapter 407: To the Atrox Immortus Race’s capital (III)
"So my guess was right. They are not over with me."
The Scarlet King did all this to draw as much attention to himself, making sure that quietly silencing him was not an option. After Orphin and Amos failed to report back, the Scarlet King was confident that the one behind the plan to kill Kain put backups in place, and it seemed that the guard was one of them.
All kinds of thoughts went through the mind of the Atrox guard. He had already put several plans in motion in case Kain would arrive, but all of them went to waste now that thousands of people saw the man appear on the head of a King Beast.
There was no way he could keep things quiet now, so he could only resign to the fact that ending the young man’s life was not a choice, at least not without anyone knowing it. Your adventure continues at
"Young Lord Lauzer, I am Janiro, the head guard of the West Gate. We have been expecting your arrival for several months. I am sorry, but we will have to ask you some questions in private before allowing you to enter the capital."
Interrogating someone who appeared months after their designated timeline made perfect sense, especially if it was a member of another race that no one had personally seen before.
"Hmph, why would I allow a simple guard to question me!"
However, the Scarlet King unleashed an overwhelming might as he stepped forward, walking across the air as he released an Essence Wave of the Wave Champion rank. Standing in the sky, he glanced at the Sky-Light Eagle before softly nodding.
While no words were uttered, the Sky-Light Eagle felt as if an invisible chain had vanished, allowing it to regain its freedom, and immediately flashed away, back into the Silent Forest.
When Janiro saw the King Beast flying away, a sharp light appeared in his eyes as he glanced at a man to his left. The creature might have some information about Kain, something he could use to calm down the people he was working for.
