Chapter 119: The Price of Slaughter (6)

Somewhere in the Everlint region, there was a cliff.

Below it, fully armed knights were busy moving around.

They were the holy troops gathered for an operation under the command of a heretic inquisitor sent to the southern region of the empire.

The one who led them was a heretic inquisitor named Kelter, who wore an eyepatch on one eye.

Kelter ordered the knights to search for the heretics who might be hiding nearby.

“Search every inch of the area! There must be traces of the enemy!”

Kelter looked around as he gave orders to the knights.

It had been two weeks since he discovered and pursued the movement of the cult that crossed the empire.

Kelter and his party had executed forty percent of their forces and were chasing the remaining remnants.

He had also sent a request for cooperation to stop them from entering the Everlint region, but for some reason, the heretic inquisitor Albert still did not move.

It was impossible to block the fleeing heretics from the front without any support.

In the end, it was up to Kelter alone to exterminate the heretics.

Kelter frowned as he watched the exhausted knights.

“Why is there still no news from the other heretic inquisitor in Everlint!”

Kelter’s mouth burst out with complaints about Albert.

It had been a long time since he sent a request for cooperation through the temple.

If heretic inquisitor Albert had joined them, he should have come here and stopped the enemies by now. freewebn ovel.c om

But there was no sign of any support, not even a proper contact.

It was impossible unless he deliberately ignored the request for support.

Crash!

Kelter hit a nearby tree with annoyance, and his adjutant approached him with a troubled expression.

“Sir Kelter… Don’t worry too much. There will be news soon.”

“Soon? When is that soon? What’s the use of news after I kill those bastards?”

“Ke, Kelter sir…”

“That’s why I said they should pick proper people for heretic inquisitors!”

Grind.

Kelter clenched his teeth and vented his anger as he held the reins.

In his view, most of the current heretic inquisitors were mediocre at best.

Considering the special nature of heretic inquisitors, they should have picked only the elite among the elite, but the holy land kept lowering the threshold because they thought they were short of numbers.

Because of those lacking people who wore the title of heretic inquisitors, he still couldn’t get proper support.

They should have raised the standards and selected proper knights for heretic inquisitors.

That was Kelter’s thought.

“Don’t you think so too?”

As he was thinking that, Kelter turned his head and looked at his adjutant.

The adjutant who had been agreeing with him suddenly became quiet.

As he turned his head, Kelter saw his adjutant’s face with his mouth shut.

The adjutant was looking at something with a terrified face and trembling.

“What are you looking at?”

Kelter’s eyes followed his adjutant’s eyes.

Six steps away from where he was standing.

There was a knight lying on the ground bleeding.

“Uh…”

“Could it be… He was ambushed by an enemy? He killed a knight without making any noise or traces?”

Clang!

Kelter drew his sword as soon as he found the knight lying on the ground.

As soon as Kelter drew his sword, the body of the fallen knight turned into ash and scattered.

His comrade was killed without any sound or trace.

And even the ambushed comrade disappeared without any trace.

It was a scene that could not be created by an assassin of mediocre level.

Kelter raised his alertness and looked around with his sword pointed.

“It’s an enemy attack! Everyone be on guard!”

“Sir Kelter…”

“Did you see any sign of an enemy? Where is he now?”

“From above… He came down from above…”

The adjutant who faced the enemy trembled and held his sword.

He came down from above.

Kelter’s eyes followed his adjutant’s words and looked at the cliff nearby.

There was a sheer cliff above where Kelter was standing.

It was a height that no one could survive jumping down from.

It was almost impossible for an assassin to sneak down from such a cliff.

Kelter frowned as he heard him say that he came down from above.

“He came down from above?”

“Yes, yes! He definitely came down from above…”

“How did he come down from above?”

Before Kelter finished questioning his adjutant, a black mist fell from the sky to the ground.

It fell at a speed that could barely be captured by enhanced senses, and it headed towards a knight who was riding a horse.

Kelter’s eyes naturally followed the mist and looked at the knight who was holding the reins.

Thud. Thump.

As soon as the mist landed on the horse, a sound of bones breaking echoed around.

“Kuh… Huk…”

With a short death cry, the knight dropped his head.

A faint figure of a person was visible beyond the mist that wrapped around the knight.

There was an unidentified man wearing a black hood there.

Thump!

The knight in front of them fell off the horse with a heavy impact.

The adjutant who looked at the fallen knight pointed his finger at the enemy and opened his mouth.

“Ah, an assassin…!”

“You bastard! Stay there!”

Kelter swung his sword and approached the assassin who had landed.

Kelter’s sword cut through the place where the assassin was with a sharp momentum.

But as soon as he approached the assassin, his body turned into a shadow and dispersed.

The assassin who had been in front of him disappeared without a trace. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝓬𝓸𝓶

Kelter’s eyes wandered in the empty air with astonishment.

He then understood his adjutant’s words.

The assassin came down from above and disappeared without a trace again.

The flesh of the knight who was killed by the assassin turned into smoke and scattered.

“Both the dead knight and the enemy who attacked him… They all disappeared without a trace.”

“…”

“Sir Kelter, it must be an assassin sent by the cult to deal with us! We have to gather the scattered knights right away…”

The adjutant’s voice trembled with fear.

But Kelter immediately signaled him to shut his mouth.

In the silence, Kelter scanned the surroundings of the cliff.

There were many places where people could hide.

He didn’t know when or where a hidden enemy would pop out.

In the sudden silence, Kelter gave orders to his subordinates.

“Be on guard. You never know when an enemy will suddenly pop out.”

As soon as Kelter finished speaking with his sword in his hand,

A black mist fell from the sky again.

Kelter’s face hardened as he saw where the mist rose.

The enemy was falling from above the cliff again.

This time, it was his adjutant next to him that the mist was falling towards.

In an instant, the adjutant’s head was grabbed by the assassin’s hand and he looked at Kelter.

He had a terrified face and asked Kelter for help.

“Ke, ke, Kelter sir, I… I don’t want to die…”

“Snap out of it! There’s an enemy behind you–!”

Thud.

With a quiet sound,
