Chapter 638: Masked Draugr (1/2)

After the incident of destroying the assassination circle, two days passed by in a jiffy.

The incident spread to all the corners of the Zrochester province and it became a hot topic for the cultivators all over the province.

”Who do you think destroyed the assassination circle?”

A group of cultivators in a tavern were also discussing the incident as one of the cultivators asked others about the perpetrator.

'Slap'

”Are you an idiot or what? Didn't you see the bounty placed on each and every corner of this town? Why are you asking such a silly question,”

However, the first reply he got was a slap on the back of his head and only then a cultivator answered him.

As soon as the sect leader Gerg returned to the assassin sect, as he promised to the four assassins, he announced a bounty for any information on the three people in the posters.

”Bastard...why are you hitting me? Do you think three people could destroy the assassination circle? Who are you kidding?”

The cultivator who was slapped became angry as retorted back at the cultivator that hit him earlier as he whispered, 'I think, one of the sects or even the royal family must be the true mastermind behind the destruction of the assassination circle.'

'Thinking about it, the other powers didn't like that thing from the start. Maybe it is possible,'

'Right right,'

Soon everyone agreed to his words in whispers.

The other powers in the Zrochester province didn't like that kind of organisation despite the fact the assassin sect said that it would not accept any assassin missions related to the top powers.

How could they trust the assassin sect on their word?

As long as they provide enough money they could kill one of their own.

In the end, the rumour of all the top powers (excluding the assassin sect) destroyed the assassination circle circulated from one place to another and spread all over the province.

'I think he started a little early. He is still too weak to travel to that place,'

At one corner of that tavern, a masked old man in black robes muttered to himself in a low voice before leaving that place.

...

In Ajax's room,

'Uaau'

Ajax woke up from his sleep with an excited look on his face because there were two important events today.

One, he had to go and meet with Keshe to ask her whether she found anything about the whereabouts of his friends or not.

Two, the disciple-selection ceremony by the six vagrant cultivators.

'I should go and meet up with big sister Keshe as I still didn't know how long the selection of  the vagrant cultivators will take,'

Ajax silently thought to meet Keshe first and came out of his bed to fresh up.

'Tap tap'

Just as he took two steps, someone tapped on his door.

”Darbaudr, come in,”

He knew who it was and asked him to come in because he was the one who called him earlier to come to his room.

”Give them to me,”

As soon as the barbarian came into the room, Ajax asked him to give something.

”Here they are, young master,”

Darbaudr knew what he was talking about and took out two black-coloured statues from his storage ring.

They were none other than the assassin god's statues which were picked up by the barbarian from the assassination circle.

'Let's learn more about them,'

Taking the one-meter black coloured statues into his hands, Ajax excited thought in his head as he used the system to know about them.

'Ding,
