Chapter 115 The one who came
It can be said that from a safe situation, the town's rulers were pushed into a dilemma by Kain, unable to advance or retreat.
Right now, their only hope was to hope that the person had forgotten about the existence of the twins. That way, not only would they not be affected, they could also make a huge profit.
Unfortunately, fate was not on their side.
On the morning of the fifth day, a figure appeared in front of the most powerful people in Kadata town. Causing them to tremble in fear.
As for Kain, he had successfully completed his objective and advanced to the second floor of the Dungeon.
Everything that happened, most of it was within his calculation and control.

Seeing that the number was almost one-tenth filled, Kain couldn't help but feel a little excited.
He was one step closer to [Thunder Magic ★★].
But thinking about the road ahead, Kain fell silent.
There were only one month left until his appointment with Myra.

Will he be able to reach [Thunder Magic ★★]?
Kain wondered, then quickly threw this meaningless question to the back of his mind.
He only needs to do one thing, and that is to try.
Even if he couldn't do it, he had tried his best, and that was more meaningful than spinning himself around in these meaningless questions.
With that in mind, Kain entered the second floor of the Dungeon.
This time, Kain didn't encounter a spider nest blocking his path. But in a way, this was quite a pity.
Fortunately, he had passed through this floor once and had scouted it thoroughly while killing monsters. Now, with the magic skill [Seek], he could identify monsters at a significantly faster speed.
With the advantage of terrain information, Kain hunted monsters at a breakneck speed. To prevent fatigue from draining his energy, Kain only used offensive magic when necessary, otherwise the dagger with the necrosis curse and [Enhancement Body] were all he need.
The second floor was not much different from the first floor except that the frequency of monsters appearing was much higher, so Kain almost never rested at all, he was almost always fighting monsters, if not fighting monsters then he was about to kill monsters. This made Kain have to focus on massaging his arm every time he rested, which was numb and sore from holding the dagger and using so much force for so long.
Meanwhile, in the Kadata town.
Dieter, one of the children of "that person" in the words of the Kadata rulers.
Ten years ago, that person had won the succession battle of a noble family in the city of Pyce. Although they were not the leading noble family there, the power they held, both politically and in pure strength, was not something a small town like Kadata could compare to.
That person exiled his two brothers, none other than Horon and Horan, to come here and also gave them a piece of advice. From then on, that person seemed to forget about this place, not even asking about it or even looking at it, seemingly forgetting the existence of this place. And during those ten years, that person quickly made his noble family rise in rank, the ambition to become the leading noble family of Pyce was ignited.
This is a talented person, with power, strength, and ambition.
That's why, even though there wasn't a single inquiry for ten years, the Kadata town government still tolerated Horon and Horan.
Because they are afraid.
Now, their fears have come true.
That person didn't show up in person, but his son came, the seriousness of this matter goes without saying.
"Where are the bodies of my two uncles?"
Dieter spoke coldly to the elegantly dressed man beside him, but he didn't even spare a glance at him. Behind him were five Magus standing by, along with a hundred elite soldiers covered in full iron armor, giving off an extremely oppressive aura.
Looking at this luxurious formation, the man dressed in clothes almost knelt down and begged for his life.
Which in a way is not wrong.
In fear, the man led Dieter to the morgue, where the two mutilated bodies of Horon and Horan were placed neatly next to each other.
Because of the special preservation, even after such a long time, the corpses were not rotten or covered in maggots. So much so that their expressions of horror and anger could still be seen.
Dieter looked at the corpses of the two people who shared his bloodline, his eyes showing no sadness or regret, only contempt and hatred.
His father had told him about the succession war that year long ago. At that time, Dieter had not yet been clear about his father's opponents, or rather, his previous brothers. But now, he knew, even though it was not a pleasant thing.
Previously, Dieter asked his father why he didn't kill all of his opponents, but only killed some, exiled some, and kept some?
To this, his father replied that those who were killed were the most threatening, and it was only natural to eliminate them. Those who were kept were those who were still useful, and were controlled. As for those who were exiled, they were useless, but they were also not a threat. Their only use was to be the ones in their crotch, to give birth to children, and to expand their clan to other places.
In other words, a useless baby-making machine.
Now Dieter understood.
Only two useless people could be killed so tragically in this middle of nowhere.
He raised his hand, a flame fell down and burned the two corpses to ashes.
"Two useless people, it's not a pity to die."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Dieter said calmly. The meaning behind this sentence made the man beside him slightly happy. Could it be that this person would decide to let this matter go?
However, the next sentence made his face turn pale.
"But if you dare to kill someone who shares our bloodline, you will have to pay the price."
