Chapter 109: The Lurker in the Shadows
What if you urgently want to find it back?
This would be impossible. Because there is an infinite amount of different spaces in the world. Even the greatest gods cannot retrieve the space treasures if they have lost their space keys.
That’s it! After Arman heard this news, his mood immediately hit rock bottom!
He could not bear to talk to Shillong!
Shillong was also depressed. Previously, he only cared about fighting the dragons and venting the urge for violence in his heart, and actually forgot about this!
Isn’t it merely hundreds of thousands of gold coins?
‘Well, I don’t care at all!’
‘Gold coins are outside objects! They’re not worth my attention at all!’
‘Wooooo…’
Right after, Shillong arranged for his servants to return to the original residence of the green dragon, where they lived before.
Then ordered them to survive here for the time being.
He was ready to return to Starlan City.
He has no intention of being the king of this land and staying with them!
He only wanted to keep these troops, let them self-develop themselves, and call them whenever they are needed.
As for whether some of these guys escape from this unit? Shillong has already given orders to Kusk.
The race to whom the deserter belongs will be severely punished. And if the numbers of deserters increase, the orcs should be punished. Therefore, it is sure that Kusk will try his best to look after his servants for his own life and the life of his people.
Additionally, if the green dragon ever dares to come back for revenge…
That’s bad luck for them!
Shillong’s attitude towards his troops is very indifferent.
He doesn’t need to rely on this force to increase his strength, because he can easily destroy these guys in a few minutes with a few normal dragon breaths at most.
In any case, they live in the forest, can be self-sufficient, and don’t need him to worry about. Well, just let them stay here.
And in the future, if he decided to make movies, he would simply use them for some large-scale production. Why not?
Afterwards, Shillong asked the elves about the direction to Starlan City.
The previous high-level dragon summoning spells could only summon giant dragons who are a few hundred kilometers. Generally speaking, they were not too far away. These elves knew where the main city of Starland Kingdom is located and had referred Shillong to it, all for this latter to head back.
When they returned to Andre’s mansion. The adult golden dragon and the young bronze dragon did not ask any questions.
Honestly, they noticed that Shillong and Arman were missing in the morning.
But did the two of them need to worry?
Obviously not!
With the strength Shillong showcased in front of them, they knew that he was a legendary level powerful!
Moreover, he is not an ordinary legend!
Does one even need to worry about this kind of dragon? Oh, please, you’re joking, right?!
So Andre and Nefiro remained as calm as ever.
Now that the two young dragons are back, they will continue their normal lives.
Shillong and Arman returned to the temporary Academy to train.
But one night, a few days later, the peace at Andre’s house was shaken!
This night was dark and windy, and the moon was dim.
A night watchman in the house was muttering due to boredom, leaning on the fence of the gate, keeping his watch.
A black shadow appeared beside the surrounding street lights.
That’s right!
There was only a shadow, but no real body can be seen!
The shadow came outside the fence, was suddenly stretched, and then drifted across the fence into the house.
It was like a ghost, clinging to the wall, drifting upward, and then squeezing in through a gap in a window.
He finally merged into the darkness of the house.
…………
’My name is Cardo Dann. A level 17 assassin affiliated with the Brotherhood, 35-years old and single!’
‘Don’t ask me why I’m still single at 35! Because I have money! I believe that rich people should enjoy life!’
’I am a level 17 assassin! Level 17! Do you know what that means?’
’How many people do you think I have assassinated?’
‘I can’t remember the number myself! But they should be at least five or six hundred. There were humans, orcs, Dragonborns, and elves.’
‘I’m rich! Because being rich allows me to enjoy life! But I’m strict and simultaneously exercise myself! I must not relax, or else, my strength will go down, then my quality of life will go down, which is not what I want!’
‘Today is a good day!’
‘I received a mission from the Brotherhood! I should assassinate several targets living in the home of the wealthy Andre in Starlan City.’
‘But this time, the mission requires me to bring a compass. At the request of the mission client, they said they want me to kill the guy chosen by the compass.’
‘There should be 4 “people” in total?’
‘I don’t know who it is, but it doesn’t matter! Anyway, as long as I take action, their fate is already predetermined!’
’Because I am a genius killer!’
’I mastered super-advanced stealth skills like Shadow Walk!’
‘I have assassinated 5 level 19 professionals.’
‘For a level 17 to kill a level 19…now, this is something that I only in the world can do! ‘
‘I guess it won’t be long before I can try to assassinate a legend-class?’
‘Haha! This is really exciting!’
‘But I will not fail.’
‘Ok! First, take out the client’s compass. This is a good thing. There are many patterns carved on it. I just need to follow the direction of the pointer.’
‘Well, here I am! Here’s the target of my assassination!’
‘I hope they can become an assassin in their next life so that they will not die!’
The dark shadow followed the doorway and drifted inside the door once again.
There seems to be something wrong!
Cardo Dann saw a pair of eyes that exuded golden light, and the owner of these eyes was a Dragonborn!
Across from him also lay an expressionless elf looking at the door…
‘What’s the matter with this guy? Did he see me?’
‘Impossible!’
At the moment this thought came to him, Cardo Dann totally rejected it!
‘My Shadow Walk is perfect!’
‘Wait a minute! Let’s see what this guy is all about!’
After waiting for a while, the Dragonborn on the opposite side suddenly laid back on the bed in a daze!
‘Was this guy sleepwalking just now?’
In this dark room, the black shadow drifted slowly along the ground to the Dragonborn’s side.
After observing for a while… dozens of minutes have passed.
‘Very good! This guy was definitely sleepwalking just now, and now he’s asleep!’
Cardo Dann followed the edge of the bed and slowly dashed to the side of the Dragonborn. Finally, an arm-like shadow stretched mid-air, and a dagger, inlaid with dark jewels, suddenly appeared from the void. The dagger, the sharp glow of the dagger brought a gleam of light to the dark room!
“Wush~”
The arm moved!
The tip of the dagger pierced Shillong’s neck!
‘Die!’
Cardo Dann seemed to have seen the blood spurting from his neck, as well as the terrified gaze of the dragonborn!
His other arm has instinctively reached out to cover the opponent’s neck!
“Wush~”
The Dragonborn’s eyes opened again.
The golden stream of particles in his eyes was so blinding.
Cardo Dann’s two arms were instantly caught by the opponent!
His wrists were squeezed tightly!
Cardo Dann’s suddenly changed. He wanted to struggle, but the next moment…
Click~
His wrists were broken!
“Hiss~”
Strongly resisting the urge to scream, it was very clear in his mind that if he made any noise at this time, he would only wake up more people! His situation will become even more unfavorable!
