Chapter 49
*Swish!*
Sara slashed through a goblin and shouted irritably.
“What are the Guardian Knights doing?!”
With the help of Anna, they had managed to annihilate the Dark Tribe Goblins in an instant.
But soon, a much large number of mutated monsters swarmed in.
*Thud!*
A goblin, trying to attack Sara from behind, fell after being hit by an arrow.
“I doubt the Guardian Knights will show up,” said Anna.
She had been covering Sara after using her mana.
In other words, Sara had killed all the enemies by herself.
“Why not?!”
Sara shouted as she cleaved another Dark Tribe Goblin in half.
“It seems the Young Master wants to completely eradicate the corrupt residents of the territory.”
“Is this the right time for that?!”
“He probably sees this crisis as an opportunity.”
*Thwack!*
An arrow pierced the forehead of a Dark Tribe Goblin.
Two of them died instantly.
Anna was effortlessly dodging the goblins’ attacks with ghost-like movements.
She could have killed all the mutated monsters here with her abilities.
But she didn’t.
It was as if she was training Sara.
“Anna, help me out. Let’s wipe them all out and head to the south gate.”
“I can’t do that. You act too recklessly without enough strength, my lady. One day, that recklessness might cost you your life. I need to correct that habit now.”
Sara scowled deeply.
There was no time to waste here.
If mutated monsters appeared in the north, they would likely show up in the west and south as well.
They needed to clear this area quickly and move on.
As she was about to focus all her mana into her sword…
“Nicely said Anna, that’s not a good habit to develop.”
Kane appeared just in time.𝒩eew updates 𝒂t n𝒐vel/bi𝒏(.)com
Sara was thinking of exhausting all her mana and collapsing from fatigue.
Maybe then Anna would help her.
It was a ridiculous plan.
Kane had pointed this out.
For a moment, there was a lull.
The Dark Tribe Goblins had to stop their attacks due to an unknown force.
“Hehe. With my presence, these petty creatures are terrified!” Blata said, feeling proud.
Sara was about to ask Blata something when…
One of the Dark Tribe Goblins, eyeing the situation, lunged towards Kane’s group.
“O-Oh Shitt!”
Blata, who had been feeling smug, was startled and burrowed into Kane’s arms.
“You stay back.”
Kane snapped his fingers.
A pea-sized droplet pierced through the goblin’s neck.
“Ugh!”
It was an instant kill.
The dead Dark Tribe Goblin fell to the ground limply.
The remaining goblins hesitated.
While they were hesitating, Kane muttered as he glanced at Anna.
“I left her to grow through real combat, but she’s only filled with unnecessary thoughts.”
He already knew the true identity of the head maid.
“Hey! Bring the Guardian Knights immediately! Otherwise, the territory is in danger.”
Sara had no time to pay attention to Kane’s words.
Her mind was solely focused on the territory.
Angry, she didn’t even call Kane “brother.”
“That’s not possible.”
“You’re really…!”
Sara stomped her foot.
Just as she was about to swing her sword at Kane.
“You’ve worked hard for three days straight, that’s enough. Rest now.”
He caught Sara’s sword with his bare hand and then struck her neck with the edge of his hand.
“Unn-.”
With a small cry, she fainted.
Kane caught Sara as she collapsed to the side.
“Even if her favorability decreases, it can’t be helped.”
Sure enough…
[Sara Rehinar’s favorability has decreased by -1.]
[Sara Rehinar’s favorability has decreased by -1.]
[Sara Rehinar’s favorability has decreased by -1.]
Her favorability had dropped.
“I’ve given the residents of the territory enough chances.”
Having come this far, there was no need to hold back any longer.
It was time to clean up all the unnecessary elements.
Kane turned his gaze to the head maid and spoke.
“Take Sara away. She’s not to leave her room until the territory is quiet again.”
Despite being of 7th class level, Anna acted as Kane’s mother many times.
Moreover, Kane was the eldest son of her master.
His words were absolute.
“My lady will resent you, my lord.”
“I’ll bear all her resentment.”
“If that is truly your wish, my lord…”
Head maid Anna carried the unconscious Sara and returned to the territory.
Kane was left alone in the middle of the battlefield.
He stood there facing the Dark Tribe Goblins.
An eerie silence settled.
Only the sound of the wind could be heard.
The Dark Tribe Goblins were overwhelmed by Kane.
Their numbers didn’t matter.
What was important to them was the ominous aura emanating from Kane.
“Hmph, you’re scared of my boi Kane too?”
Blata, who had been scared by the goblins’ sudden attack, regained his arrogance.
He realized that the goblins were intimidated by the Blood Bond that Kane possessed.
The goblins, thoroughly frightened, turned their gazes to Blata, who seemed easier to deal with.
“Look me in the eye!” Blata shouted, trying to muster authority.
It was a rather pathetic threat.
Blata’s front legs clung tightly to Kane’s arm.
“With one word from me, you’re all dead. I’m really close with Kane. We’re homies!”
Blata threatened by boasting about his relationship with Kane.
And it worked.
The mutated monsters were much smarter than regular monsters, smart enough to understand human speech.
So they lowered their gaze further in response to Blata’s threat.
“You should have done this from the start instead of messing around,” Blata said, glaring at the Dark Tribe Goblins.
The sight was almost comical.
Before he had hatched from his egg, Blata had thought he carried some weight.
“There must’ve been something wrong during birth.”
“Huh? What’s wrong?” Blata looked up at him with bright, curious eyes.
The fat piggy tiger’s gleaming eyes raised a question in Kane’s mind.
‘Is he a hybrid?’
He couldn’t voice it aloud, worried it might hurt Blata’s feelings.
“It’s nothing.”
Kane shifted his gaze from Blata to the Dark Tribe Goblins and made a proposal.
“Let’s make a deal.”
The Dark Tribe Goblins murmured among themselves.
“Kree?”
“Kreekreek?”
The deal came from the human emitting an ominous aura.
“Feed only on the humans I choose and leave. Then, I won’t kill you.”
“Kreuu?”
The goblins felt an overwhelming fear.
Corrupted by dark energy, they were left with nothing but a crazed instinct.
But Kane’s voice carried a pressure that surpassed their madness.
Their instincts warned them that defying this meant total annihilation.
All of this was due to Kane’s influence.
The Blood Bond he bore held supreme authority over minds.
“This way is best for both you and me.”
It was the easiest way to deal with traitors.
A means to eliminate them without dirtying his hands.
“Will you accept the offer?”
“Kree!”
A goblin that appeared to be the chieftain nodded.
“Good. I’ll tell you what you need to do.”
The goblins listened to Kane’s voice attentively.
It was a surreal sight.
The moment when mutated monsters and a human joined forces.
[The world is in turmoil.]
[An unprecedented event is unfolding.]
Unlike the Hatzfeld royal family, who caused chaos by exposing mutated monsters to dark energy, Kane simply made a deal with them.
This unexpected action left the system baffled.
[The world, which had been in turmoil, decides to observe for a while.]
[Achievement unlocked.]
[You have earned the title ‘Human Admired by the Primordial God.’]
[You are rewarded with 100 million gold.]
Kane smirked at the messages.
It was the expected outcome.
“Rewards for solving things in unconventional ways rather than following the official strategy. I’ll gladly take it this time too.”
This “Primordial God” was not part of the game’s system.
It was literally a god.
This was something Kane had learned after being transported to this world.
These messages were created by the god.
The more he advanced the story, the more diverse the messages became.
Messages that increasingly sounded like they came from a person, not a system.
The Primordial God vaguely hinted at being pleased or watching over him.
“To find out why I’ve been transported and regressed in this game, I need to satisfy this Primordial God enough.”
Only then might he be able to return to his real world.
That was the conclusion he reached after being reincarnated as Ray Hatzfeld.
Of course, there were now additional tasks he had to handle.
“Once you pass through that gate, you’ll see the buildings. You can destroy all the buildings in that area.”
“Kreek?”
The goblin chieftain from the Dark Tribe looked confused.
“Turn it into a complete wasteland. That area has nothing to do with me.”
“Kreek?”
The goblin chieftain continued to express his doubts.
“But don’t touch the eastern and western parts of the territory. If you destroy even one building there, you’ll lose your heads.”
The goblin chieftain nodded vigorously at Kane’s words.
“Don’t even look at soldiers or children.”
He continued with a few more precautions.
“Kill all humans who smell of this blood.”
He referred to the flask he had given to the members of the Guardian Knights.
The liquid inside contained Kane’s blood.
“Kreekeek!”
The Dark Tribe Goblins mentally repeated his warnings, determined not to forget.
“I’ll be watching you from behind.”
The goblin chieftain shuddered involuntarily.
In the chieftain’s line of sight was Kane’s right eye.
The 3 Blood runes (Blood Bond) within it instilled intense fear.
* * *
The northern and southern parts of the territory were engulfed in flames.
Black smoke billowed from various spots.
The Dark Tribe Goblins focused solely on destroying buildings, sparing the residents.
“Ahhh!”
“G-Goblins!”
“Run away!”
The residents fled in terror, showing no intention of fighting the invading mutated monsters.
They didn’t even look back as they ran.
Kane observed everything from the shadows.
“The pride of Rehinar has long vanished.”
Every resident of Rehinar used to be strong.
Especially here, at the borders of the Frecia Empire.
It was a territory built within the demon forest.
Living in such a dangerous place required strength.
Running away without a fight was not in line with the pride of Rehinar.
“They’re so weak. If it were me, I could kill them all with a single breath,” Blata muttered incessantly, like a ghost with unfinished business.
Meanwhile, the youngest members of the Guardian Knights appeared before Kane.
“We have marked the most corrupt ones.”
“Good job.”
“And the nobles… they have gathered at the front gate of the estate…”
“I will handle them.”
“Well done.”
As Kane was about to head towards the noble’s estate, Blata called out to the young Guardians.
“Hey, humans. Did you forget something?”
They stared blankly at Blata.
“Really, nothing?”
Despite Blata’s persistent questioning, there was no response.
“I’m really angry now!”
Blata struggled in Kane’s arms.
Eventually, Kane let him go.
Blata leaped and tried to land gracefully on the ground, but…
“Ow!”
He hit his head on the ground.
“Ouch, ouch.”
Everyone, including Kane, turned their attention to Blata.
Sensing the sudden interest, he quickly adjusted his posture.
Fortunately, he didn’t fall backward and managed to stand up on his own.
“I am Vladimir Bu Pavel Le…”
“Blata.”
“Yes Sir! Wait… You dare to ignore the great Blata? I’m really angry.”
Blata bared his toothless jaw, trying to intimidate the young Guardians.
“We don’t have time for this. Let’s go,” Kane said, moving forward without waiting for Blata.
The young Guardians also ignored Blata and followed Kane.
Blata couldn’t hide his embarrassment at their behavior.
“Hey, aren’t you taking me with you?”
Despite Blata’s calls, Kane didn’t stop walking.
“Wait, take me with you, KAneeeeee.”
