"did you hear the news!? The Night Crawler was killed!"
A man rushed into the bar while shouting and cheering, when the people inside heard his yelling at first they wanted to shut him up, but when they realized what he said
"I-is that true!?"
They all crowded around the man who had already dashed up to the counter and had the barman pour him a free drink to get him to talk
"it's true! *gulp* I saw it myself! *gulp* one more"
When the barman realized he was just here to get free drinks he quickly stopped pouring more and let the man finish his story
When they heard what happened everyone rushed out to go see, the skies had already cleared and the first signs of sunlight pierced through the fog
When they appeared the giant corpse of the snake everyone cheered and danced in joy, only the barman stepped aside as he noticed a scale that was crushed on the ground and had a boot print on it that had a double 'S' symbol shape in the mud
"hey everyone take a look at this?"
He called the rest to come over
"what do you think it means?"
One of them asked
"I had seen this double braided circle on the ring of that lad who had come to the bar earlier"
The bartender said while recalling his encounter with Via
"so that guy actually killed the fiend!"
They all exclaimed
"but, who broke his signature? Why would someone try to take the credit for it?"
"hey look over here! I found another one!"
Another man shouted while pointing at the back of the snake corpse where there was another symbol engraved, this time it was a double 'S' symbol with an eye in the middle
"what sinister Aura, I have never seen such impure Li"
One man said, he was an Apprentice Jin artists himself and had traveled to many places in the Lin Empire, unfortunately his talent and injuries didn't allow him to break through into an Adept Jin artists
"I know what happened! I was hiding not to far away when the fight happened"
A gossipy looking guy spoke up deliberately trying to get attention from people for his pleasure
"when the hero had defeated the Snake demon I saw a group of people wearing sinister clothes and a black mask with the same double 'S' symbol, they said that their plans were destroyed again by the hero, they said that they were going to kill everyone even if they had to use the most vile methods! And they called themselves the Deaf Evil sect!"
Everyone gasped when they heard this and no one doubted his words
"I see, they must have been the ones that used this symbol with strange evil Aura to make the Night Crawler go on a rampage in the city, we must report this to the Empire's forces!"
The group of people hurried to the city lord's mansion to inform him that a new evil sect has appeared and must be eradicated
