Chapter 82 (2/2)

Ah Dai glanced at Owen, shaking his head He spoke in a low voice, “Uncle, when are we leaving?”

Letting out a deep sigh, Owen hung his broadsword over his back and said, “Let’s go now then I know you hateyour life, but I really have no choice”

Ah Dai looked towards Owen, in his young heart, the positive i of animosity, similar to how he viewed Uncle Li “Uncle, can you let me leave a letter for Teacher?”

Owen nodded, “Yes, I’ll leave a letter for hi me the pen and paper”

Although Ah Dai was confused, he still brought the pen and paper to Owen After that, he started writing his letter to Gliss

Owen pondered for a while and started writing his letter to Gliss Once he was done, he picked up a stone froht and placed the letter beside the bed “Ah Dai, are you done riting? We should go soon, your teacher will know that you are safe after reading this letter If you are fast, you should be able to reunite with him after a few years”

Ah Dai lowered his head, kept quiet, and placed his letter underneath the stone as well A few drops of tears rolled down, staining the paper He then carried his bag and walked out of the roo blankly at the wooden hut While silently observing Ah Dai, he could not help but pity the child However, the long years of training had caused him to be fir decision due to a o while it’s still early”

“En” ently caressed the silver-tin covered steaoing to leave, you ood care of yourself! Ah Dai will definitely hurry back to see you as soon as possible” He kneeled on the ground and respectfully koed three ti

“Uncle, I, I don’t kno to leave the forest After I came here, I have never left”

Owen let out a syou out”

The last reone, he could only hope that Gliss would return sooner and rescue him However, he was also afraid that Gliss would be killed by Ohen he returned Filled with ht Owen into the dense ht that, from this point onwards, he would never see his teacher — Alcheain

[TN: gasp, spoilers?!]

Only after walking out of the mist did Ah Dai realise how much he could not bear to part with this place He did not have to ‘catch fish’ anymore, he ate fresh fruits every day, and the “care” that Gliss gave him; all of these were deeply etched within his mind

Just as he had said, Oas able to recognise the direction iht hiht with the black-robed men He then proceeded to lead Ah Dai out of the illusionary forest After walking for almost half a day, they were finally out of the forest Ah Dai was able to see the sunlight once again but strong light htly uncomfortable; his heart remained cold, despite the warm rays from the sun

On the fifth day after Owen and Ah Dai left

It was a dark gloo it difficult for people to see things further than one metre away In the middle of the room, stood nine men, they were precisely the nineof hell”, yet still surviving They stood silently in theto e atmosphere

An illusory voice seemed to come from every direction, “M1, did you finish your mission? Have M6, M10 and M11 perished?”

M1 gravely replied, “Your Highness, theof hell” was poisoned by the Matchless Holy Water, he could still execute the hell’s Sword, and ere no match for him”

“Hmm? Since you were no match for him, how are you able to return alive? Under the hell’s Sword, no one has lived to tell the tale”

The tone of the illusory voice was calm, but M1’s back was already ith cold sweat He tried his best to control his tre of hell” was after all our leaders in the past He showed us mercy on account of the past, so ere able to return alive”

“Is that the case? Tellthat has happened”

“Yes, Your Highness Originally we had chased “the King of hell” into a large forest in the Valian Province We had gained the upper hand but just as ere about to succeed, … …” M1 recounted the whole incident “That is how it happened, M6, M10 and M11’s corpses are currently outside”

“Eh—, M1, you have been in the organization for quite some time, this doesn’t see the situation is hts, pointless sacrifices areof hell’s” personality, he would let you live and come back to report? If he really had the ability to kill you then, you would have long became a corpse The phrase that “Once hell’s sword is drawn, nothing will survive” is not for naught Don’t you know the effects of the Matchless Holy Water? Although he has profound strength, once the poison penetrates his body, will he still be able to deal with all of you so easily? Don’t forget, you are the elites of the M assassination group Perhaps after you left, he would not be have been able to resist the poison and fainted If you had just persisted for a while more, you could have captured hireat”

Sweat continuously flowed down fro while, “Your Highness, I, I know ive us a chance to make up for our mistake Let us return to that forest, and ill surely bring “the King of hell” back” They had seen the ruthless methods of their master, and it caused even them, ere not afraid of death, to be filled with a deep fear
