1003 Chapter 1003: Hunting a titan
The towering walls seemed almost impenetrable, with no visible gap except the giant gates that were closed. It was similar to the walls around the Civilization’s City, but
much bigger.
As the carriage drew nearer, Karyk noticed the carvings and symbols etched into the stone. The carvings were similar to what he had seen in the Royal Graveyard of Elzeira where they buried their ancestors.
It was as if the walls were depicting the legends of the Angels, worshiping them. The gates, equally massive, were guarded by even more titans that were wearing something that appeared similar to the Mage’s robe.
The carriage came to a halt before the gates, and the titans escorting it bowed deeply.
The woman in the starlight robes stepped out once more, raising her hand. A ripple of energy flowed from her fingers, and the gates began to open with a rumbling sound, revealing a city.
The robed titans greeted the woman respectfully, stepping aside to clear a path for the carriage.
Normally, they would have checked the carriage to make sure that no uninvited guest was here, but they weren’t fools to check and show their distrust towards this woman.
The chariot moved into the city, and Karyk, still hidden beneath it, carefully observed his surroundings that looked less like a city and more like a world within a world. The carriage traveled through the roads, moving past the other giants that were clearing the path for this carriage.
Soon, the carriage reached the grand palace in the center of the city.
The woman exited the chariot and was greeted by a host of attendants. She spoke to one of them in the same ancient language while they entered the palace.
Karyk took this opportunity to slip out from under the carriage. It wasn’t easy for anyone to spot him, thanks to his small size alone.
He was like an ant walking around the palace, which made things a little easier for him. He walked around the Palace, trying to find someone that he could use.
The first problem he had was that he didn’t understand their language. He had to solve that problem while also gathering information. And there was only one shortcut for that.
He observed the Titans that had accompanied the carriage. Most of them left in groups, appearing relaxed now that they didn’t have to take care of the woman. There were also many of them that appeared as if they were extremely tired and just wanted to rest. One such titan was the one that was slapped by the woman for
making a mistake.
Karyk followed the lone titan who had separated from the group. He walked behind the palace, where a special place was prepared for guards and servants to stay.
The Titan scratched the back of his head while yawning as he entered his quarters, not realizing that his shadow was following him with a purpose.
Once he reached his room, he closed the door and sighed.
Now that he was alone, he was like a completely different person. He started roaring in anger, letting out all the anger he had contained within him during this journey.
He punched the wall in anger, remembering the moment he was slapped. Unfortunately, he couldn’t harm that woman, so he could only let out his anger in this manner.
Even after taking a full strength attack by the Titan, Karyk was surprised to see that the wall hadn’t even cracked. There wasn’t even any vibration that could let anyone know that someone was hitting the wall.
One after another, the Titan kept punching the wall, roaring like a mad beast.
‘I see. Not only is the wall not damaged, but the sound also doesn’t leak this room in the slightest. This might be for the best.’
Karyk stood in the corner of the room, with his arms folded around his chest as he watched the Titan let out his anger.
This was just the perfect place for him to complete his task. He was going to hunt a titan.
He wasn’t going to do that in the forest or some unknown place, but he was going to do that in the place where hundreds of titans were just around the corner. After hitting the wall hundreds of times, the Titan finally stopped as fists started bleeding. But strangely enough, the wounds on his fists healed at the same time on their own.
Although Karyk couldn’t understand this man’s language, he was sure that this guy was cursing that woman who appeared to be more unpopular than he expected. The Titan stopped attacking the wall, as if he had enough of hitting the inanimate thing. He turned around and walked back to the bed while Karyk hid behind the legs of the bed.
The bed creaked and bent a little while the Titan laid his heavy body on it, going to sleep after an exhausting day.
Karyk waited for half an hour for the Titan to sleep. After waiting and sending no further movement from the Titan, he came out from under the bed.
Just the height of the bed alone was around fifteen meters. Karyk flew higher to reach enough height where he could see the Titan on the bed.
His shadow came out of the ground, carrying a shadow scythe. The Shadow handed the Scythe to him.
As Karyk held the scythe, its blade grew even bigger.
The Titan had just fallen asleep when he suddenly felt a strange scent around him. Confused, he opened his eyes, only to see black blade flash before him.
The moment his eyes opened, the scythe sliced through his throat, letting blood splash all over. Some drops of blood even fell in his eyes, turning his world
completely red.
With a deafening roar, the Titan lashed out in pain and anger, but no one was coming
to help him as his voice didn’t even leave the room.
As he struggled to stand up, but his body refused to listen to him. On the other end, he felt a shadow slowly climbing over him, swallowing him.
