Kill, But Don't Bury

Luke teleported to Boto Square through the virtual teleportation anchor point and walked all the way to Lighthouse Street.

He found the Assassin Bar and jumped down.

Evil Eye Tis moved quickly. The Tschick brothers' corpses had already been taken away, and the traces of battle on the ground had also been dealt with simply.

A professional was a professional.

He knocked on the tavern door a few times, and the small window on the door opened and revealed Tis's yellow eyes.

Before Luke could say the code, the door opened.

"Miss Clear Sky, you came back so quickly? The headquarters of the Wild Axe Party is a castle that is not easy to enter. Giant Tree himself is very strong and is protected by so many subordinates.

"You don't have to be discouraged if you can't find an opportunity to make a move.

"Come in and have a drink. I can get the lizardman Billy to give you some information about the Wild Axe Party and Giant Tree for free."

Luke walked past Tis and flicked a silver certificate with his finger.

"Tis, you talk too much nonsense!"

Tis extended his feelers and quickly took the silver certificate.

"Thank you for your generosity, Miss Clear Sky. I wish you a wonderful night."

The elf who walked into the tavern once again attracted the attention of all the customers. Some of them could not help but take out their pocket watches to check the time.

In such a short period of time, it wouldn't even be enough to run to the headquarters of the Wild Axe Party at full speed and come back.

Lizardman Billy placed a glass of wine in front of Luke. "The fact that you were able to kill the Tschick brothers proved your strength, but Giant Tree is not as stupid as them. Otherwise, the Wild Axe Party would not have the power they have now.

"I've sorted out all the properties belonging to the Tschick brothers for you... It's all here."

Billy took out a bag from under the counter and placed it on the bar.

Then, he saw the elf place a human head in front of him.

It was actually... the head of Bull Horned Demon Giant Tree!

That's right, it was Giant Tree's head. His pair of bull horns were too unique.

"Y-you really killed Giant Tree?"

How was this possible?

In such a short period of time, it was already very good to be able to make a round trip to the headquarters of the Wild Axe Party. But she actually killed Giant Tree!

Could it be that he was standing at the entrance of the headquarters of the Wild Axe Party, waiting for her to chop off his head?

Giant Tree's head caused a commotion in the tavern.

No one wanted to believe that the elf could kill Giant Tree in such a short time, but Giant Tree's head was right there.

The people here were all assassins and people related to assassins. They knew how to distinguish the authenticity of the head.

He was Giant Tree.

The Bull Horned Demon who single-handedly founded the Wild Axe Party.

Luke brushed his hair that was covering his eyes, picked up the wine on the table, and took a sip before unzipping his bag.

There was some money, practical tools, and weapons inside.

Without the things in the warehouse, these things were all urgently needed by him.

Luke closed his bag and said to Billy, "Is this the head of Giant Tree? You should be able to appraise it, or you can send someone to the headquarters of the Wild Axe Party to investigate.

"I'm only concerned about the bounty."

Lizardman Billy took out a wooden box from under the counter and placed Giant Tree's head inside. However, the horns were too big. Billy tried to adjust the wooden box several times but could not close it, so he had to put his head away first.

Then, he said to Luke awkwardly, "Miss Clear Sky. This is indeed the head of Giant Tree. The fact that you were able to kill Giant Tree so quickly has shocked all of us.

"It's our honor to be able to receive such a powerful assassin like you in our Assassin Tavern in Cape District.

"As for the bounty for Giant Tree... This amount is too large. There's not much cash in the tavern. If you are willing to wait until tomorrow, you can take 5000 gold certificates from me."

In The New Age, one could get the reward after completing the mission.

However, things were different now compared to the game. 5000 gold certificates was indeed a huge sum.

One gold certificate was already a huge sum, equivalent to 5000 imperial marks.

"Yes, I can collect the reward tomorrow. Help me to exchange 2000 gold certificates for silver certificates, and 100 gold certificates for imperial marks."

"No problem, Miss Clear Sky. I will exchange a portion of the gold certificates for change that is easy to spend.

"Is there anything else I can do for you?"

Luke took out a few imperial marks and placed them on the table.

"I'll treat everyone here to a glass of wine."

Lizardman Billy put away the money and said, "Thank you, Miss Clear Sky."

The people in the tavern raised their glasses and shouted, "Thank you, Miss Clear Sky. It's our honor to meet you."

Luke finished the rest of the wine in one gulp, then picked up his bag and walked out.

"I'll come back tomorrow night to get the money. Goodbye."

"Goodbye!" Billy bowed.

Luke left the Assassin Tavern and returned to the clock tower near Shelly's house through the virtual teleportation anchor point.

First, he took out a sum of money and placed it in the corner of the bell tower. Then, he found a stone and pressed it on it.

Then, he looked at the window on the second floor of Shelly's house.

What a wonderful night.

Going offline, charging...

Clear Sky's figure disappeared from the bell tower, and Luke, who was lying in the room, opened his eyes.

The phone in his consciousness entered charging mode.

He didn't feel any discomfort from controlling Clear Sky to run back and forth in Cape District. In fact, his main body was in good spirits after sleeping.

Now, the Heart of Red Dragon Nilcro was in Clear Sky's backpack. Checking out the summoning process of the Red Dragon Nilcro...

He needed a lantern that burned fin whale fat.

A 120cm x 120cm drawing paper made from burr clover, oil paint made of lantern nectar and slippery stone powder, and a formation brush.

Five crystals, ten bloodstones, one kilogram of sulfur, and the corpse of an adult male red bat.

These things were not easy to obtain in the Cape District in a short period of time.

However, he should be able to buy all the materials needed to summon the Red Dragon Nilcro in one go from the mysterious shop in the central area of Wild Waves City.

Anyway, he still had to go to the Assassin Tavern to get the bounty tomorrow, so he could get the money to go to the central urban area.

Then, prepare the materials needed for the secret technique ritual.

Now, sleep!

Luke went back to sleeping soundly, completely unaware of what the entire Cape District had become after she killed her way there.

There was a vicious murder in the warehouse at Windbreak Alley. 17 people, including the warehouse leader, Ron, were killed.

After receiving the call, the Cape District Security Department immediately sent a sheriff to the scene. The 17 victims were still standing at the entrance of the storage area in the form of ice sculptures.

The witness said that the murderer was a female elf who called herself Clear Sky.

She said that Ron had her stuff and that she killed him after she had tricked him out.

The murder scene in Windbreak Alley had not been sealed off yet, and the headquarters of the Wild Axe Party had been invaded again.

Someone from the inside spread the news.

Including the leader of the Wild Axe Party, Bull Horned Demon Giant Tree, and several core members of the Wild Wind Party, more than a hundred people died.

The murderer was a female elf, and she had the ability to create a large ice rink.

She called herself Clear Sky...

The clear sky!

The female elf named Clear Sky appeared again, and an ice rink appeared again.

The murderer of the two massacres was the same person.

First, it was the warehouse at Windbreak Alley's dock, and then it was the Wild Axe Party, which had a lot of interests at the dock.

What was her motive?

Moreover, with the death of Giant Tree, the Wild Axe Party's vitality was greatly damaged. The benefits it vacated would inevitably cause various factions to compete for it.

The already chaotic Cape District would become even more chaotic from tomorrow onwards.

The security officers of the Cape District Security Department were getting more and more frustrated.
