Chapter 162: Returning to Avibria City (1/2)

Kadyn walked on a silent road, as the moon strolled beyond the trees and clouds. He put his hands into his coat pockets as the icy wind blew on his face. He trod for around ten minutes before he reached his destination.

He looked at the silent and dark house and sighed deeply. Then his gaze moved towards another house, and it was also as dead as the haunted lighthouse beside the sea. Kadyn frowned, but then he moved in another direction.

It took another ten minutes before he arrived in front of a large building, the lights illuminated the area, and a few guards were standing at the entrance. As soon as Kadyn walked out of the fog, he attracted their vigilant gazes.

And before any of them could speak, he said. ”I'm here to meet Elder Jyn. Can you…”

”Who are you?” Interrupted one of the guards.

”My name is Kadyn,” he said. ”Can you, please, inform Elder Jyn or Potioneer Yel?”

The guards looked at each other in dismay; they didn't know what to do. If this person wasn't someone important, and if they interrupted the good night sleep of the two elders, they would surely be punished.

The guard captain thought for a moment and said. ”Please come back in the morning. The two elders are sleeping and they won't be happy if we were to disturb them at this time.”

It was one of the reasons behind his refusal, the main reason was that Kadyn appeared suspecious, what if he had an ulterior motive. They would have to pay the price for their negligence. Kadyn clearly knew what they were thinking. But he had no time to waste on them. He frowned and said. ”I won't be in Avibria City in the morning. So I need to meet either of them now.”

”Sir, don't make things hard for us. Please leave,” said the captain as he gestured towards his companions who unsheathed their weapons one by one.

Kadyn sighed when he saw this, though he didn't blame them, after all, it was their job. But he didn't have time to waste. Just as the guard captain was about to order his people to send him away, Kadyn vanished.

”Be careful!” Shouted the captain, but as his voice sounded a few thuds echoed. The captain shivered as he turned around. His companions were lying on the ground, unconscious. Though alive, but incapable of fighting, or even moving. He was all alone now, and he knew that he stood no chance in a fight against Kadyn after he displayed his means.

”Wh-what do you want?” His voice trembled as he looked at Kadyn's nonchalant expression.

”You know what I want,” Kadyn said, ”do you want to inform them, or should I do it myself?”

”I-I will do it,” said the man and then he rushed into the building.

After ten minutes later a sound of footsteps came from inside the building. Kadyn looked at the

arrivers, and finally, a smile appeared on his face. ”Long time no see, Elder Jyn.”

The old man was stunned when he saw him. It was only when Kadyn spoke did he come back to his senses. He opened his mouth a few times but no word was spoken. Elder Jyn shook his head and finally said. ”Come inside.”

”Ah, these guards,” Kadyn looked a little apologetic when he glanced at unconscious people on the ground.
