Danger!
Lee delivered the message nimbly with the combination of his palms and fingers to Kieran .
Then, he stepped back, posing a please gesture to Kieran, signaling him to go up the well .
If Lee didn't deliver the signs a moment ago, the current scene would be normal, yet it wasn't .
Kieran went below the well and squinted his eyes at the rope . He tilted his head up to the entrance .
He didn't climb up the well with the rope though, it struck a weird feeling in his heart .
Even though it was just an instinctive intuition, Kieran trusted his intuition a lot .
He slightly adjusted the ascending angle and jumped up through the well . As Kieran was halfway flying up the well, he tapped his feet on the wall of the well, boosting his falling body up once more, dashing towards the entrance .
Sou Sou Sou Sou!!!
The moment Kieran leaped out of the well, a series of air-breaking noises sounded around him .
Four ropes were fired from different directions at Kieran, trying to tie him down while he was tumbling in mid-air .
Kieran tapped his feet once more in mid-air, allowing him to step on air itself as [Modii Boots] shone .
Kieran who shouldn't have any spots to relay his strength did a backflip in mid-air, not only did he dodge the ropes trying to latch on him, he landed on the ground firmly as well .
"Eh?" A strange cry sounded from a far .
An average height man with his hair gelled straight up was looking at Kieran with an astonishing look even with the sunglasses on him .
The man then nodded as if the scene was supposed to unfold like that .
"As expected of the thief that stole the portrait of Aritelgar!" The man said .
The thief that stole Artitelgar's portrait?
Kieran was shocked for a while, but his movements didn't stop .
He noticed Kana and Jen was tied down on a side . Lee who went down to get him was still able to move freely but surely he was also under the man's surveillance .
Plus the man's impolite actions, it seemed like he wasn't there for chit-chat, even though there wasn't a real killer intent from the man, Kieran didn't plan on getting himself caught .
So, he dashed out towards the man .
Ditko, the huntsman that was deployed by the Funeral Society saw Kieran coming at him . He reached out his hands with a heavy face when he saw Kieran's speed .
Sou Sou Sou Sou!
The four ropes moved on their own again after missing their target for the first time .
No visible figure was controlling the ropes and they moved all by themselves, flying through the air like snakes with wings, trying to entangle Kieran .
However, the ropes missed yet again, even though Ditko was treating this seriously .
Yet it wasn't Kieran's maximum speed . His S- Agility boosted his movement speed beyond any commoner's imagination, four of the ropes could only catch the dust behind his steps .
Then, an area of darkness enveloped the area like a sudden burst of mist .
[Shadow Cloak]!
A 5-meter radius of supernatural darkness not only hidden Kieran's figure from sight but almost covered the limited space wholly .
Ditko retreated backward when he saw the darkness descend upon him .
Another rope flew out from his sleeves and started to spin quickly above him, like a propeller of a helicopter . Its loud vibrating sounds was telling everyone present that the strength Ditko exerted into the rope was enormous .
To be honest, Ditko was quite confident of this technique himself . He had once strangled a man's limbs with his rope and broke his arms multiple times . It was not just a literal breaking of bones but the whole limb torn off by brute force .
So, when Ditko saw Kieran emerged from the darkness before him, trying to reach the spinning rope above him, his heavy expression became slightly relaxed, a victorious grin had appeared on his face as well .
However, the victorious grin was frozen the very next moment . His rope had clearly tangled onto his opponent's hand but the seemingly common hand of Kieran felt more like an iron forged limb than a man's hand with flesh and bones .
Kieran's S- Constitution has also allowed his body to surpass what a common man could achieve, plus the buffs from [Body of Evil], even without any extra talents, it was impossible for the rope to tear his body apart .
Quite the opposite, not only that Ditko's rope fail to tear Kieran's limb but Kieran grabbed onto it tightly on the other end, like a strangling eel .
Right off the bat, a burst of flame appeared in Kieran's palm, burning the rope that he held on to .
It was like burning Ditko himself as he was in shock .
"Hmph!"
