Chapter 931
The young priest was agitated when he caught Kieran's glance . His face blushed and his fists clenched .
The elder priest was slightly at a loss when he caught Kieran's glance . His face looked a little pale .
"Please follow me!"
Herasu said as he led Kieran inside after a few seconds of pause .
Pudd strode into the temple ahead of them .
The crowd, however, was discussing the young hunter's rudeness against Kieran .
"An arrogant hunter!"
"He is more unlikeable than rumor has it!"
"He really has balls to challenge the Godslayer himself!"
"I know right!"
"That young hunter is really something!"
. . .
The weird discussions that were going on made Herasu even more nervous .
"Please forgive his ignorance, Pudd doesn't really mean to offend you . "
Herasu explained while walking .
Kieran didn't reply . He only nodded without really commenting on the matter, he followed Herasu into Hunter Temple's front hall .
Dirt, jungle and a real river!
The moment Kieran entered Hunter Temple, he felt like he had entered a forest .
However, he wasn't that surprised .
"Analytics of the temples developments in Naveya City" had already introduced Kieran to the uniqueness of Hunter Temple .
It was different from the standard building of other temples . The whole Hunter Temple was a jungle constructed by the Hunter himself using his divine power, including the core of the temple .
The believers of the Hunter learned to hunt, cooperate, and honed their skills here . It was safe to say each priest from Hunter Temple was an amazing hunter on their own and for a hunter of the temple, the hunting hound and archery were their pride and honor .
Pudd who was already there had a full grown hawk on his shoulder .
The hawk was silver in color, had a pair of keen eyes and anyone who went up close to it would be greeted with a screech . Pudd was holding a hunting bow that was longer than the usual one .
The longbow was as tall as a grown man, its design was simple and plain while the string was tied in an old fashioned way on the bow's body .
"What bow do you need?" Pudd asked .
Kieran didn't answer . He looked to Herasu instead .
Herasu immediately lent his bow to Kieran and his action agitated Pudd even more .
Pudd thought his teacher was too soft and weak and had lost the pride of a hunter, while he would defend the last pride .
As the thought came into his mind, Pudd stepped up and said loudly, "People recognize your strength but your strength doesn't make you an excellent hunter! Archery is my strongest skill and I have confidence in beating you in my own game!"
His words sounded very confident but at the same time also utterly arrogant .
The crowd showed disdain toward his claims .
Lilith had an obvious disgust in her gaze toward Pudd . Livezel, however, was confused .
"This shouldn't have happened! Given the tenacity of Pudd's character, even if he was frightened to his core, he would have been better after a few days of buffering and readjusting . Why is he much more serious than before?"
The Melody Temple priest frowned uncontrollably .
As Pudd's longtime rival, Livesel knew him very well, despite the tremendous shock and agitation, he shouldn't have behaved like this .
"Something isn't right!"
Livezel wanted to stop his rival out of instinct but when he saw the crowd surrounding them, he sighed quietly .
The crowd was made up of archpriests, officiants, and chief knights, let alone the one who stood in front of them accepting the challenge .
A small person like Livezel wouldn't have made any difference even if he said something .
While all that was going through Livezel's head, Herasu was already reading the rules of the challenge .
"As you begin, the servants will release 10 rabbits in a certain area of the forest . Whoever gets the most rabbits within 30 minutes shall be the winner . Do you understand Archpriest Ryan?"
Herasu looked at Kieran and after Kieran nodded again, he signaled the servants further away .
The servants then quickly carried out their task in releasing the rabbits .
