Wier rushed out of the hotel and shouted at the black figure further away, but Kieran didn't even care .
Instead, he walked even faster . A blink of an eye later, Kieran vanished at the end of the street .
Wier sighed helplessly again . He didn't search for or chase after Kieran .
Although given his command in Eiders, it wasn't hard for him to achieve it, he knew even if he located Kieran, he wouldn't make any real progress .
Kieran's personality tied the veteran consultant's hand .
Despite him already knowing when a Monster Hunter was involved, trouble would follow . However, he never thought the problem would exceed his expectations .
Sighing, Wier turned away and left .
However, the scene entered the sights of many . All of them took note of the details and sent reports to their superiors and bosses .
Cook was one of them .
While smoking his cigar, Cook allowed the smoke to cover his face, he liked the smell of cigars, just like how he loved the smell of money .
As the biggest 'gold and ancient coin merchant' in Eiders, Cook was undoubtedly one of the most influential people in the underground world .
Huu!
Cook took a deep puff from his cigar . When the cigar taste exploded in his throat, he spat it all out .
The cherry taste in the air around him instantly got heavier .
"Monster Hunter? What do you think?"
Cook sitting in his chair, asked without turning back .
"A hateful person . Not just personality-wise, but the way he takes action as well . "
"His existence will only affect our plan," a heavy voice from the shadow replied .
"So do you have the confidence to kill him?"
Another puff from his cigar later, Cook asked while spitting the smoke out .
"Certainly," the man in the shadow replied .
"Very good . But, don't worry, I won't order you to strike just yet, you still have great use later . "
"Someone has already made a move against this Mr . Monster Hunter . Hmmm… I hope both of them perish together . "
Cook seemed to think of something interesting, he couldn't hold back his wide grin . His meaty cheeks twitched several times following his smile, his already small eyes squinted into a single line .
The man in the shadows didn't further reply . He knew Cook's habits .
If Cook wanted to tell him, he would tell him; if Cook didn't want to, it was best for him not to ask .
Otherwise, he would get on Cook's bad side .
But in his heart, the man in the shadows was quite curious .
Who was making a move against the Monster Hunter?
Based on the strength the Monster Hunter displayed, he wasn't some John Doe that could be taken out quickly . Should any mistakes happen… Tsk Tsk… Aemon Street was the most obvious example .
The man in the shadows thought of Aemon Street, and so did Cook .
"What do you think about the Blood Kins' kitchen?"
"Who caused that?" Cook asked .
The man in the shadows, of course, knew Cook was referring to the missing Blood Kin in the ruins of Aemon Street last night .
The incident last night was actually very secretive, but once morning came, any faction that had a 'decent relationship' with the few missing Blood Kin would know, including Cook and company .
The Blood Kin would protect their extended lineage with far more effort than a commoner could imagine—at least it was what it looked like on the surface .
When they could kill their enemies, they would not show mercy, just like a wild beast hunting prey .
When the man in the shadows thought of the news they received this morning, he couldn't hold back his cold laughter .
He knew what the news about was .
It was nothing more than the Blood Kin trying to repair their damaged 'dignity' while attempting to prove Aemon Street was an independent case .
With his own thoughts lingering in his mind, the man in the shadows spoke, "It's definitely not the Monster Hunter . Given his methods, he has no need to be so secretive and conceal his actions . "
"It's not Wier either, he can barely take care of himself now . "
"There is a high chance is that… it was committed by one of the Blood Kin, one of their own!"
"They needed the incident to redeem their name . " The man in the shadows said in a positive tone .
"Mm . " Cook nodded and agreed to his subordinate's speculations .
Cook, whose body had reached the pinnacle of fat, suddenly thought of something . He smiled again and stood up from his chair, walked over to the shadow like a polar bear approaching .
He whispered something to the shadow .
"Yes, my lord . "
The man in the shadow replied immediately after Cook's whisper . He then swiftly vanished .
After knowing that his best right-hand man had left, Cook with his cigar, slowly walked towards the room next door, which was off-limits .
Inside the room, it wasn't as extravagant and secretive as rumored, all it had was a map of Eiders .
A complete, detailed map with every single house address and shop name .
Cook caressed the map while looking greedy .
"Soon, soon . '"
"Soon, everything will be mine," Cook muttered to himself .
. . .
The young Blood Kin that delivered the news this morning was running back to its lair, trying to report back to his leader .
"Lord Marquis, that is all . "
"They or 'they' also said that it wasn't their doing . "
The young Blood Kin didn't voice his opinion .
From its viewpoint, it was all the enemy's cover-up, but more importantly, it knew even if it noticed some clues, the clues had to come out from its house leader .
Erbus . K, the house leader of House of K . Its face was flushed, unlike the healthy Blood Kin's paleness . Its hair was also different from the other: long black hair combed tidily backward and was tied into a ponytail behind its head . It was wearing a gold frame glasses and based on the looks itself, it looked more like a kind middle-aged man if he wasn't holding the glass of blood in his hand .
"Mm . Noted . Proceed according to plan," Erbus . K said softly .
"Yes, Lord Marquis . "
The young Blood Kin bowed and swiftly left .
Erbus . K was left alone . It was trying to savor the blood in its glass, but a moment later, it drained it all in a single gulp and simply threw the glass on its table before it walked deeper into its lair .
Going through a secret passage, Erbus . K somehow left the lair without gods or men knowing . He then walked toward a secret hideout slightly further away from the lair .
Dok Dok Dok .
Erbus . K knocked on the door politely .
The door was slowly opened, Kieran walked out from the hideout, or more precisely…
