Chapter 47 -47: The Time of the Undercurrents_1
[Rean sat in the snow, pressing his hand against the gushing wound, looking at you with a face full of horror.]
[Traveler, do you still want to throw another punch at this bastard?]
[Lek shouted to you, “Kid, stop hitting him. If you really kill him, that’s going to be trouble. His cousin is just a guard, but behind him is Winter City!”]
[Wei’er nodded at you and said, “Let’s leave it at this for now.”]
[Traveler, upon hearing what the cat-eared girl said, you lowered your fist and calmed the rage in your heart.]
[“Wait, are you the guy who killed the Black Snake yesterday?” Hearing Lek’s words, Rean, clutching his bleeding skull, stood up; he was truly terrified now.]
[Liselle, holding the dark-skinned child in her arms, looked at the scene with fear creasing her previously haughty face: “You, how dare you—Rean’s brother is…”]
[“Stupid woman, get lost! Don’t let me see you again!”]
[The minotaur, clutching his head, didn’t dare utter a threat, stumbling away with the support of his two companions. Liselle wanted to go forward but was frightened into immobility by a glare.]
[Liselle turned back around, fear evident in her eyes.]
[Somewhere along the line, amid the cold and the blizzard, the child in her arms could hardly even cry any longer.]
[“Liselle, considering you still have a child to take care of, I won’t lay a hand on you.”]
[The cat-eared girl spoke indifferently, “But there won’t be a next time. You know what’s going on in your home. When the big snow stops, someone will surely come to collect debts from you.”]
[The woman nodded as if pounding garlic, struggling to walk away through the snow with the child in her arms.]
[“You truly are the person who killed the Black Snake and still walked away unscathed.”]
[Lek praised you, then continued with a bitter smile: “Not like us, timid as mice. Among those blackmailed by Rean, there were some stronger than him, but no one dared to fight back, all because he has a cousin who’s a guard in Winter City.”]
[“Endlessly yielding will only make these people more audacious.”]
[Wei’er stroked Little Aina, who had somehow snuck into her arms, and said with a smile: “Aina, do you still want to go traveling? You know, the outside world is full of this kind of people.”]
[Aina nodded decisively: “Yes! Aina still wants to travel! With Sister Wei’er and…”]
[Little Lolita turned to glance at you and said: “And with Brother Luo Xi, Aina won’t be afraid!”]
[Traveler, your Happiness Level +10]
…
Rean, supported by two of his subordinates, staggered back the way they had come.
He had been lording it over Grey Stone Street for two years, and today was the first time he faced such a serious blow. He felt that he might die from too much blood loss at any moment.
A surge of hatred made him desire revenge.
But what could he do?
Should he tell his cousin?
Honestly, even if his cousin knew about his current plight, he probably wouldn’t give him a second glance. After all, he wasn’t dead yet, right?
The last time the two saw each other was six months ago, and even then, his cousin’s eyes were full of disdain and impatience when looking at him.
Not to mention now.
In the vast snow, a middle-aged man stopped in the middle of the road and slowly took off his hat, looking towards the people ahead.
When Rean saw someone blocking the way, he Growled, “Get out of the way! Don’t you know who I am?”
“This child Wei’er is still too kind-hearted.”
The middle-aged man smiled and said, “I am the Rat King of the Snake and Rat Meeting; I wonder if you have heard of the name.”
“Rat King? Ha ha ha, if you’re the Rat King, then I’m damn the Snake King!”
Rean, despite his splitting headache, couldn’t help but laugh at the middle-aged man who had suddenly appeared.
It was as absurd as a stranger running out from the sidewalk claiming to be the mayor.
“Actually…”
The middle-aged man smirked creepily, the long sword at his waist partially unsheathing itself.
In an instant, with a humming sound, a gray-green edge swept through the air.
Rean didn’t catch what the middle-aged man said afterward.
He felt his body becoming lighter and lighter, rising higher and higher until reaching the peak, and then falling mercilessly.
Then, he saw three headless corpses in the snow, gushing blood.
They seemed oddly familiar…
The middle-aged man put his hat back on his head, his lips wearing a gentle smile. “Before everything comes to an end, in order to prevent accidents, it’s best if you die first.”
In the storm, three headless bodies lay in the snow. The blood spouting from their necks should have stained the snow red, but a surge of gray veins rose up, rapidly enveloping all the bodies and turning them to ashes within seconds.
“That guy is still so lively… It seems Little Wei’er saved him with the scroll Liya left, should’ve just cleanly taken care of it, it’s all your fault for wanting to torture him.”
“Heh, isn’t that your problem?”
“Fine fine fine, let’s leave it at that. Still, how should we deal with that guy?”
The Rat King pondered for a moment.
Forget it, there’s no need to deal with it, a mere Tier zero Mutated Transcendent is not worth him acting twice.
Under the rolling tide of events, all that lay ahead will turn to dust. When the time comes, the young man who dares defy him will naturally face the ending he deserves.
The Rat King, bathed in the wind and snow, turned and vanished into the alleys.
….
….
Chu Tianwen lay on the bed, occasionally tapping the phone screen.
He had finished roaming Grey Stone Street, the Beast Eared Girl was asleep, so it should be about time to check out Winter City.
He could always come back next time to exchange information with that damn Loli-con.
[Traveler, you decide to leave Grey Stone Street and head towards Winter City.]
[As you left through a vertical alley, you happened to see several people in black robes sneaking into a narrow lane. Do you follow them?]
Hmm?
Chu Tianwen frowned.
But his excitement quickly burgeoned.
This smelled like a quest!
New n𝙤vel chapters are published on novelbuddy.cσ๓.
It seemed like something interesting was about to happen!
[Yes]
[Traveler, you glanced around to make sure no one was watching and then squeezed into the alley, following them.]
[At the end of the alley, you saw a person in a black robe entering a door about half a meter tall.]
[You quietly approached, holding your breath to listen to the voices inside.]
[You heard words like ‘greatness’ and ‘truth’ from inside.]
[“Who’s the rat that dares eavesdrop?”]
[Suddenly, a chilling voice sounded from behind you.]
[Traveler, you turned around to see a person in a black robe standing behind you, raising a staff and throwing a black orb towards you.]
[Traveler, you died.]
