Kieran wasn't giving atasks

"What about you, "my lord"?" Perry Kaner tried to pry more information out of him

Kieran looked at the collaborator who obviously had alternatives in her mind, he couldn't help but smile He pointed at where the aura ca frorunt later, Perry Kaner didn't pay further attention to Kieran

The contract with Kieran and the vows of the Viper Sectsevere consequences if violated but it was better than dying for it

The blast of aura fro robbed the intention of battle from the Viper Sect leader

Perry Kaner's eyes towards Kieran suddenly had a sense of sy to die

Why though?

Perry Kaner turned her eyes to Mary She really couldn't understand how a little girl before even hitting puberty had such charaze from Perry Kaner but she didn't care, her attention was placed at Kieran

"We can still leave" The little girl said softly, she even purposely lowered her voice but still, it couldn't escape the ears of the others who bore intentions

Those who stayed back weren't idiots by any ht be the discarded pawn just to cover a retreat

"If we do, where would we go? The Prairie King's ambition isn't just to plunder and raid Warren, he wanted the whole region for himself and expand his territory As Warren royalty, no o to, there will be mercenaries and bounty hunters that will coe it for rewards with the Prairie King"

Kieran tapped the little girl's head again It seemed to turn into a habit of recent

"2567, you can protect me!" She said out of instinct

"En! But I prefer to be er to descend upon us, why not elier while it's still in the cradle?"

Kieran nodded and before Mary could refute anymore, he waved at Fanner and Jyaichi further aere donning a thick and tight mantle

"My master!"

The traitors of the Viper Sect bowed at Kieran with respect under the [Mesly Ring]'s effect

"Protect Mary till ed himself into the shadow

Mary reached out to hirasp was a handful of air

"2567…"

Mary uttered softly

Her despondent feeling made her feel a loss of actions and words She raised her head and saw through theher, she saw Perry Kaner with her arood show

She saw Maxim with a pale face that looked like utter despair

The others didn't care, didn't smile nor will they support Kieran's endeavor, all she saas a bunch of living dead who acted perfunctorily

"No! No! These people can't share 2567's burden, instead, they will drag hiht appeared in Mary's heart and fear spread like a plague in her, as though the despair when she lost her ain

"No! I don't want to! I've lost ain!"

She screae to avoid reality Her scream forced her to properly look at the problee She forced herself in cal down and started to recall Kieran's plans

Soon, the despondent feeling vanished froirl's face and all that was left was a steady expression

Perry Kaner as staring at the girl was stunned She didn't expect the girl would recuperate so fast

However, neither the Viper Sect leader nor the little girl noticed that the [Thorn Blade] that Mary has been carrying with her since was vibrating softly even without anyone controlling it

It shook for a second and returned to its stillness

Itplanted into the soil, as long as it had enough tiiant tree that pierced even the sky!
