Imperial's Order

[How did this guy know the existence of Kalden in this vast place?]

Richard took a breath and exhaled it repeatedly for several times, it was the same as Abelot. Using horses to rocky mountains like this seems to be a bad choice if they spur it very fast. 

Damma was in front of Kalden like a puppy, Richard couldn't believe that among Kalden's people, there was a very disrespectful person like Damma. 

[He doesn't sweat...] 

Richard reassessed Damma again who was in Kalden's presence. As he turned his gaze he got a cold-eyed look from Kalden. 

"Count, we finally met too." 

Kalden multiplied his gaze, he overlooked Richard and cared more about Damma. 

"Kalden, I managed to hide it! I was so happy that I ran all the way here." 

Kalden continued to pay attention and he took a step forward. "Next time you have to use horses. You can harm yourself and myself." 

Damma was silent, he immediately nodded like a head pulled by a rope. 

[The count doesn't want people to be suspicious of you, Damma.] Shye said that silently in his heart. When Damma appeared just now, the ground they were stepping on seemed to be swaying, and he came with great strength and speed. He also almost hit Kalden just now, if only it wasn't Kalden, then when the collision between them happened, the body of the person who was hit by Damma might have been destroyed. 

Richard and Abelot the money in the ignore were walking closer, as they were on higher ground, they just realized at the back of Kalden was filled with a sea of harmless monsters. The blood had been spilled to the point of flooding like a lake. 

"Y-you killed them all with just two?" Richard pointed at his front with trembling hands. Kalden looked at him without blinking. 

"Just Shye." 

Abelot and Richard looked at Shye incredulously. Knight chief Oriesdett turned out to be strong as well, although yesterday they saw a defeat to Shye. 

"You turned out to be training your knights." Richard spoke like that as Kalden walked past him down the mountain. He didn't seem to care about what Richard had just known. 

Shye followed closely behind along with Damma who was overzealous with the outside environment. Shye even had to hold Damma's hand so that this kid wouldn't jump up and run to make Kalden angry later. 

"What's that?" 

"It's a forest bear." 

"if that's what?" Damma asked, pointing to a small waterfall not far from them. 

"It's a waterfall." 

Shye directly covered Damma's mouth with his palm, he didn't want to hear the question from Damma again at a time when Kalden was in a bad mood because of Richard who followed her.

"Count, you know that I came here by order of the emperor." 

With just a small breath, Richard realized that Kalden was swearing at him. But Richard still maintained a smile on his face. 

"Because this matter is so urgent. ." 

Kalden finally stopped on the flatter ground and he cast an extremely cold eye gaze on Richard, adding a pressure that made Richard uncomfortable.

"Why catch up with me?" 

The sentence was emphasized by Kadlen so that Richard realized that his attitude was a sign of disrespect for the landlord. Moreover, he saw the results of Shye's practice, so that Richard became more and more uncomfortable and guilty. Although in fact he had a reason because of the emperor's order. 

"Let's talk about this in the mansion." 

Kalden covered Richard's now silent mouth and let him ride the horse-drawn carriage. When Shye arrives near Richard, he bows in honor, then along with Damma he gets into the horse-drawn carriage filled by their Count. 

 "You shouldn't follow them." 

The low voice made Damma tremble, he looked at Shye for help asking Shye for help, but Shye shook his head. There would be no one who could help Damma if he got the punishment from Kalden. 

"You understand?" the voice sounded again and Damma nodded very quickly. He was most afraid of Kalden's figure throwing him away, being in that tube sometimes he could feel what was happening nearby. He also felt a deep sadness. 

"You have to take care of your behavior, Shye and Albus will help you. If you behave like this, you can trouble me." 

"yes, Damma will learn from Shye and Albus. I'm sorry Damma, Kalden." 

Kalden with his arms folded in front of his chest only cast a flashy eye on this figure of young and old in front of him. 

**

As he arrived at the mansion, Albus greeted him and Albus got a gripping cold look from Kalden. 

"You have to take good care of the guests." 

Albus understood the sentence instantly, he still smiled and showed his integrity with his eyes respectfully. 

"I will accept whatever punishment you give, Count." 

Kalden left him, and Richard and Abelot directly followed Kalden. Their conversation is not over yet. If it is not talked about then it will make the case longer to complete. 

Kalden took them all the way to his study, Albus placed tea and snacks in front of them, after which he went out, leaving the five men in the room. Closed the door slowly.

"By order of the emperor I am here to help the count to deal with the newly occurring cases in the southeasternmost part of the empire." 

Kalden knew the place, it was filled with sharp slopes and was also a region of difficult access. However, being there was quite good, as they were close to the borders of the imperial knights.

Richard, who has been observing Kalden since just now, waited for the right time to explain the rest, because it was the most important part that would be very surprising. 

"Explain now." 

Kalden waited for an explanation and closed his eyes which made Richard somewhat doubtful of what he should do as Kalden seemed to be trying to ignore him again. 

"There it is said that vampires appeared which caused many deaths." 

Just one word of the sentence had provoked Kalden's interest, he opened his eyes and cast a sharp look at Richard. 

"Vampire?"
