POV; max
I saw him walking toward Mia with a small smirk on his face.
I can see in a glass window in front of me, my blond hair was changing colour, to a colour that was darker than the darkest night.
side effects of the record of Yama were on work, because of my intense rage towards S rank adventure in front of me, I almost feel his nack in my hand, maybe it was due to using death magic too many times in sort period that my rage was more dominating than others emotions. my right hand was touching the hilt of the sword, and my left leg slid a few inches forward, making a perfect stance for unsheathing my sword.
'Don't be foolish brat' I heard a demonic voice from the depths of my mind.
'I want to kill him so badly!, only if that third wheel, surveillance agent was not here I would have used the 'record of Yama' when he first showed his ugly face!'
"hu!" I saw a carriage with golden tiger symbols on it passing by on the street, it was the carriage of the beast kingdom royal.
means there are knight orders nearby for their protection!
I rushed towards the street, the carriage was driven by an earth beast that looked like Tryserotop from Nux's past life. however, it was fast as a Formula 1 racing car! living behind a trail of dust
Max used his mana to enhance his lag,
'Careful I'm feeling an unusually faint life force in that carriage, maybe a death magic user is inside it
'I don't need to go close to the carriage, instead of I'm only going for the captain of knight order behind the carriage
Max runs toward the man who was riding a white colour horse behind the carriage wearing white armour that has a blue pattern on it.
he stood in front of the commander, without giving anyone a chance to speak-
"p-please h-help her!" he said breathing heavily.
"Where?" knight commander Alfred Hake asked with a puzzled tone.
"There is an a-adventures guild!"
. . .
the captain turned his snow-white horse towards the adventures guild, with a filker of lash it run like lightning and stopped in front of the guild in the blink of an eye.
POV; Alfred Hawk
I entered the guild I saw a burry muscular man raising his hand to attack the girl in front of him.
for the looks of the mana around him, he looked rather high-level. if his hand landed on that girl she will die!
I unseated my sword and sprinted toward him.
my sword moved on its oven, cutting his hand from his knees.
sound of meat dropping to the ground resonated through the whole building.
"thank you for saving my life"
"don't worry, it's the duty of knights to protect the people of their land!
and if you want to thank someone thank that boy, who asked me to help!" I said looking at the boy who just arrived at the guild.
after a few minutes of talking with each other both Max and Mia walked toward the inn.
. . .
few moments in the past.
'This presence! death magic! and the highest level of that??!' the best man riding inside the royal carriage of beast kingdom thought.
'Anubis come out' he said in his mind.
a black orb comes out of his abdomen and starts hovering in front of him.
'Anubis transform in to shadow firm and find the source of this strong death aura'
owl again transformed into a shapeless dark finger and vanished from the carriage.
the sun was still touching the horizon and had a few minutes to set, but due to clouds, it was dark as midnight.
In mids of the darkness, a shadow was moving from one rooftop to another towards the west where the inn was located.
It entered the second floor of the inn in particular room no.0210, where it was feeling a strong presence of death aura.
It entered the room.
"Swsh~"
As it entered the room owl was blinded by the light and fell to the ground losing its concessions.
" so what do we do with this bird," Max asked to Sinawish in his mind.
'Live in this place as soon as possible, they have found out by now that you killed their dark familiar!' sinawis said, in a low tone, it was obvious even he don't know what will happen if that death magic user comes here.
After all the death magic users are rare animals, highly unpredictable of that.
. . .
"What?" the best man said Carrige said with surprise, it was not even ten minutes that he sent his dark familiar to this max, and he lose contact with it.
'There is something fishy going on, what death magic user like that doing here? in the capital of Snowwind duchy? is ajax secretly trying to increase his power?
No, he does not have that much of a fool how can he do that after we prepare this much for our final goal? Maybe he is some old monster or from another planet?
But his aura was strongest among any death mage I had met so far, and if I could find the secret behind his terrifying strong death magic it can help our plans! or I can recruit him on my side, after all, ajax has that level 10 artefact in his possession' Beast King thought.
After a few minutes, they riched White colour castle which was the castle where duke snowing was living
…
Midnight
Beast king seth carmine was standing with Ajax, ajax moved the hour hand o the watch which was hanging on the wall to 6 and injected his mana in it.
The black colour makes a circle appear on flore of Ajax's study room a few meters away from seth was standing.
"You have rater good setup for hiding your wife haha"
"Don't fuck around and enter the circle before anyone comes here!"
"You know no one is coming here, after all, it is dukes study room!"
Both of them entered the black magic circle and appeared in an unknown location From the look of the ceiling it look like a cave.
After waking for a few moments they riched the door which has a symbol of a black feather engraved on it. It was symbolic of the dark guild.
