Chapter 125: Pursuers in Delki (2) (2/2)
But thankfully, there were only two assassins The victims all died from either a wind-type spell or poison
Jin was about to go crazy He felt like the survivor was going to be found dead each tihed
“This is the last survivor, Young Master Dan Marius What if this fellow is dead as well?”
“Just open the door”
Dan Marius lived in a ree in East Delki
The two had stopped knocking since the fourth survivor They just wished that the survivor would be in one shape when they opened the door
Click, click—Tick!
The door to the last survivor’s cabin opened
Fffffft!
And an arro at Jet
He flinched, failing to react and rabbed it with his bare hand before it could pierce theMaster! I’m safe thanks to—”
!</eer Theroom just stood there, eyes wide
With fear in his voice, he shouted
“Wh-Who are you?! If you are skillful enough to deflect a crossbow shot froht Why did you barge into my house and—”
“Are you Dan Marius, a Lunar Sacrifice survivor?”
The man’s jaw dropped
“How do you… No… Are you the Specters of the king’s faction? Or did that person send you?!”
Jin would have hugged thethat he was Dan Marius He didn’t think that the last survivor would be alive
‘And he said “that person” Was he talking about Tai breath?’
Whoever it was, he kneould lead to more clues on who cursed hier Soon, assassins will come for you, so come out I’m here to save you”
“Wh-What do you mean?”
“Gaber, Weatherway, Bert, and the others Since thisthe Lunar Sacrifice survivors The nine others are all dead I don’t know if they are the Specters of the king’s faction as you said or Taioons, but it wasn’t me”
“You… You know Miss Tai, but just trust me and follow me I don’t even need five seconds to kill you, but you’re clearly not dead yet Do you understand? I will not harritted his teeth and fell into thought Then, he nodded
“I understand… Please wait here My daughter is sleeping”
“Oh et her, quick! Do you also have a wife?”
“I do not I’ll bring ht his sleepy daughter anduntil the eastern transfer gate?”
“We must move for at least three hours”
“That’s far I will explain the rest as we go Giddy up!”
h and started galloping through the night
Jin and Jet had hoods over their heads, followed by one rather crude hter on his back
As they paved through the pathways and into the forest, Dan opened his mouth
“Did the others really die?”
“Yes I don’t think it’s the Specters of the king’s faction getting rid of them, but assassins sent over by the other person that you mentioned Who are they?”
Dan evaded the question as if he didn’t want to answer Annoyed, Jet turned and was about to cuss at hihter, he looked away before facing forward again
“You’re gonna tell us anyway, uy! Don’t keep it to yourself, and tell us I also lived a scu this man!”
“…Before that, didn’t you say that nine of s died?”
“Yes We saw their corpses ourselves They’re all dead”
Jin answered, and Dan tilted his head as if soht I didn’t tell you because I didn’t have the chance, but there are twelve Lunar Sacrifice siblings”
Kkkkkrrrr~!
Jin pulled on the reins, and the horses stopped running
“What?”
“There are two more”
“Where are the other two?”
“I do not know Unlike me, they moved based on orders”
From those words, Jin and Jet stared at each other
Two siblings left
Two assassins
As soon as Jet tried to ask, a blue light shone in the dark forest in Jin’s field of vision
“An aht was shot fro out a pitiful sound
