“Don’t know how strong he is, but I can tell you he’s no good. He just arrived at the fortress yesterday, took a liking to Old Christ’s daughter from the Stag Squad, tossed out some money, and kidnapped her on the street. Old Christ went to find him, and now six members of his small squad have disappeared. Ha, any idea where they could have gone?”
“These damn nobles. Doesn’t anyone in the camp have control?”
“Haven’t you noticed that the Hunter’s Association hasn’t been able to make a peep? Now the Lionheart Family has absorbed several large hunter groups and mercenary groups. No one else in the camp dares to get involved in this mess.”
“It seems Sinless City has gone awry…”
Only after hearing this conversation did Leonard Churchill understand the heavily guarded mansion he’d passed earlier.
Turns out a distinguished nobleman has arrived.
‘Silver-eyed Lion’ Camer, a legendary card master of the Federation.
He remembers the first time he heard this name was in a free course at the Hunter’s Association.
He never thought he’d run into an heir of a legendary family this soon.
However, based on what he heard, this Ninth Young Master, Kane, doesn’t seem like a kind-hearted person.
Hearing hunters grit their teeth about the disgraceful deeds of the nobleman, he didn’t feel any disturbance in his own heart.
Human nature is mean, regardless of whether they are commoners or rich people.
What piqued Leonard Churchill’s interest was something else.
Why would an heir of a major noble family come here?
As Leonard Churchill was drinking in the Hunter’s Tavern…
In the heavily-guarded small mansion in the camp…
Several servants were wrapping the naked bodies of two girls with corpse-wrapping cloths and taking them out of the top-floor room.
Unless seen firsthand, who would believe such a luxurious dwelling exists in the Hunter’s Camp?
Watching the bodies being taken out, a tail-coated old servant who had been waiting outside finally walked into the room.
“Young master, this is the ‘Art of the Flicker’ just delivered from the Commerce Guild. It’s a very scarce martial skill and is only likely to be produced on the Old Continent,” the old servant bowed and spoke.
Holding up a silver card with both hands, he offered it to the blond youth in a bathrobe standing before him.
He knew no matter if his words were listened to or not, he had to say them.
Catching a glimpse of the bloodstains in the room out of the corner of his eye, he said, “Please forgive, old servant, but my lady instructed me to remind the young master that you need to meditate more often. Otherwise, your curse power would not be enough to support too many martial skills…”
The young man was handsome with fair skin, and his golden hair resembled a golden lion.
But there was always a brutal and sinister look in his face.
This young man was none other than Kane from the Anka Clan, whom the hunters in the tavern had been discussing!
Hearing the old steward’s words, he chilled, “Old man, you don’t need to remind me every time.”
Old Steward: “Yes, young master.”
Kane picked up the skill card and poured his curse power into it. He seemed to be quite upset about his exile here, grumbling, “Was it necessary for the old man to exile me to this damned place just because I played with a few women?”
Looking at the blood in the room, he seemed to recall something, and his interest was suddenly piqued, “But speaking of which, these lowly female hunters do taste different. Those two last night, they bled a lot and kept fighting back, tsk tsk… Dragon City women are not so exciting.”
The steward seemed to completely ignore the latter half of his sentence and said, “Young master, your father had no choice. One of the young ladies you played with was the only daughter of a military leader. The commotion in the council was huge, and your grandfather was furious. Your father could only make arrangements for you to temporarily stay here. Besides, with major changes imminent in the Federation, the family needs to make arrangements on the Old Continent, this could be a great opportunity. Your mother specifically told me to assist you in setting deep roots in Sinless City, which will inevitably secure you more speaking rights in terms of succession…”
“Enough.”
Kane grew impatient as he listened.
But when he heard about succession, he held back.
He switched the topic, “And I have to go to the Alternate Dimension?”
The steward nodded and added, “Your father said that if you don’t complete the trial, you might not be able to return to Dragon City for a while. This trial plan was personally established by your mother. Moreover, there’s no place more suitable for trials than this space. The large-scale war mode allows legions to enter. This time, I have arranged for a group from the Fierce Beast Legion to accompany you. Young master, rest assured, everything has been arranged and your safety is guaranteed. Once recruitment is complete…”
“Stop, stop, stop! Just handle the trial as you see fit.”
Kane had no interest in the alternate dimension. He interrupted the steward’s following words.
The Lionheart Family was not just any noble family.
They were a military family possessing a legendary card master!
Over the centuries, the family has produced numerous top-level powerhouses. Various uncles and elders hold significant power among the military’s higher-ups. Their influence is intricate and complex.
Even when the Old Empire fell, the Anka Clan remained steadfast, demonstrating their profound strength.
The wealth of the family provided Kane with everything he needed since childhood.
Professional sequence, relics, Demon Marks…
These things that the lower class would kill for were piled high in the Anka Clan’s treasury.
He could have any of them as long as he wanted, no matter how rare.
As for adventure?
Kane had even less interest in that.
He had everything he wanted, what was there to seek in adventure?
He dismissively waved, “You may leave now, I want to rest. Make sure to get me some fresh and quality goods for tonight..”
