Chapter 234: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 37
"There's indeed a dungeon close to the Dream Village, and it was said that it houses a great treasure inside. However, there's a powerful monster guarding this treasure, so anyone who dared to explore the dungeon was unable to return," Jericho explained.
"Let's just give up on it," Gilbert expressed. "We should be contented with achieving one victory. Let's not get our heads high because of it,"
"I know," Kayn naturally understood that. "I was just curious about it,"
However, deep inside Kayn's mind, he could only think of one single monster that exist in the Slumbering Forest that is capable of creating this solid and dense cluster of mana — the Kraken.
Coincidentally, Dream Village is located south of the Slumbering Forest, which is one of the two locations where there are plenty of underwater tunnels.
If his assumption is proven correct, then the place the Kraken is hiding should be this dungeon close to the Dream Village. Needless to say, there's also the possibility that he could just be wrong and there's actually another monster staying inside the dungeon.
"That's impossible," Natas suddenly interrupted Kayn from his thoughts. "I know what you are thinking. But there's no way for a monster like the Kraken to allow another boss-rank monster to be close to its territory, which is the entire Slumbering Forest,"
Kayn naturally knows that. But until he sees it with his own eyes, he will not believe it a hundred percent. That's because the 'Tower' has made him believe that everything could be possible.
"We will check it out eventually," Natas simply smiled. Since one of the keys is related to the Kraken.
Under the dream-like sky of the Dream Village, Kayn and his group rested for the night.
Meanwhile, half of the soldiers of the Green Horn City present were busy patrolling the area around the Dream Village. This was to make sure that they won't suddenly get ambushed by the reinforcement of the Assembly of Freedom during the night.
Fortunately, nothing like that happened until the morning of the next day came.
In the midst of the morning routine of everyone in the Dream Village, the reinforcement from the Green Horn City finally came. Leading them was Friedrich and the first squad of Green Horn Kngihts, along with someone who has replaced Gilbert's position as their squad's assassin.
Her name was Lilith Nightingale.
The instant Kayn heard the name, he was immediately reminded of a talented female assassin in the past who became one of the leading Executives of Pandora. Her title was The Phantom of the Night.
Unfortunately, just like Jude, Lilith Nightingale also died. Her death was one of the most gruesome yet mysterious of all. Her entire body was cut into pieces and displayed inside different glass containers for the entire world to see. Even until the time he entered the 'Tower' for the last time, no one still discovered who her killer was.
"I didn't expect that we'd be meeting another great figure of the past," Natas muttered beside Kayn.
Jude the Judge of Fire and Lilith Nightingale the Phantom of the Night.
He can't believe that two of the influential Hero of the future would both come from 'The Bridge'.
"Should I try searching if there are other more influential Heroes of the future before finally leaving this place?" Kayn can't help thinking in his mind.
"You might also stumble upon Villains too, and perhaps one of your traitorous allies," Natas chuckled.
"Even better," Kayn can't wait to have such an encounter. Once he finds anyone that betrayed him in the past, he'll for sure make them feel the same or more pain that he went through in the second life.
"Kayn!"
Friedrich called out, which immediately pulled Kayn from his thoughts.
ƥandasnovel·ƈom "Friedrich," Kayn greeted.
"I didn't think that you'd once again land a successful operation not long after the last one," Friedrich complimented. "If you continue doing this, Old Mayor George might just allow you to establish the fifth squad of the Green Horn Knights,"
"I appreciate the offer, but I have to decline," Kayn has bigger goals.
"I was just joking," Friedrich chuckled before pulling Kayn for a hug.
Kayn smiled.
"Anyways, are these the people that will be managing the Dream Village?" Kayn looks at the personnel following closely behind Friedrich, which indicates that they have a higher status compared to the majority of men that are staying a bit farther behind,
"Yes," Friedrich nodded. "Old Mayor George said to feel free to pick the bad apple and replace them with the good ones,"
"Wait, don't tell me," Kayn realized something.
"That's right, you'll be the new Chief of the Dream Village," Friedrich applauded. Along with him were Roshan, Cedric, Kimberly, and Lilith.
"This…" Kayn was in disbelief.
"He also added that you can rest easy here because he already assigned the three squads of Green Horn Knights for the cleaning operation," Friedrich added.
"I thought we were supposed to do that," Gilbert voiced out his resentment.
"He expected that you'll ask, so he gave me this letter to give to you," Friedrich handed Kayn a piece of envelope.
Seeing that it wasn't touched, Kayn understood that the content inside is extremely confidential that even Friedrich who is Old Mayor George's right-hand man doesn't know about.
"I understand," Kayn can only accept his new assignment.
"This should only be temporary," Jericho gave Kayn his sympathy.
"You better hope so,"
"Yes… wait! What?!" Jericho has a bad feeling about this.
"Since you have a lot of experience managing an alliance, a guild, and a business, you fit perfectly well for the position of the new Chief of the Dream Village," Kayn started walking away. "You better start with your first day in the office soon, Chief Jericho,"
Gilbert chuckled as he added. "Otherwise, you'll be handling a lot more responsibility than what the Dream Village already has,"
Jude and Charles offered their comfort to Jericho before quickly following after Kayn.
Jericho could only cry his helplessness inwardly as he has no choice. Their leader already gave him the responsibility, and he does fit perfectly well with the position, so he has nothing to counterargue with his decision.
"We'll also be going ahead, Chief Jericho," Friedrich also bid farewell along with the first squad of Green Horn Knights. Since they are already done delivering the extra manpower to the Dream Village, they have to return back to base to quickly join with the clearing operation.
Fortunately for Jericho, Jadiel stayed with him to help.
