Chapter 1367: Malicious Intents
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Through the window, Eckart didn’t only spot the reporters from the local TV stations, he even saw so newspaper reporters plus in addition to a lot of reporters from various online dia.
A simple murder in Rain City wouldn’t have caused such a scene.
Could it be...
Eckart wasn’t an idiot and instantly realized sothing, and his expression changed slightly.
However, he wasn’t allowed to retreat anymore at this mont.
A deep breath later, Eckart looked at Kieran.
“2567, sothing isn’t right. Be careful.”
“And... I think I might have dragged you in this.”
Eckart showed an apologetic smile; it wasn’t the courteous one but the authentic one from the bottom of his heart. He considered the mistake at hand to be his fault.
The coback from a desperate situation excited him a lot, and when the excitent intertwined with the exhaustion from long hours of work, he had neglected the sneaky attacks of his enemies. In addition to the lack of careful thought, he had dragged Kieran into this vortex of problems.
The consequences of his mistake were getting him and Kieran in front of the scene and no space for them to step down!
Behind them was the abyss, and in front was a path full of thorns!
When neither advancing or retreating was a viable option, exhaustion filled Eckart’s mind, he had never felt so helpless than at this particular mont.
Kieran quietly looked at Eckart.
The mont Eckart, the director of the TV station, appeared before him and even beca the temporary host for the ‘Shaman’ show, Kieran already knew he was in a bad spot.
Otherwise, why would a local TV station director do sothing so below his status?
However, Kieran did not expect Eckart’s situation to be much worse than he had expected.
No doubt, the brief ssage he received earlier was a trap, together with the assistant that sent him the news; all of it should be the handiwork of Eckart’s enemy.
The news, however, wasn’t fake, but it was so brief that it had hidden and skipped a lot of crucial factors of the incident. These key factors were the reason why Kieran and Eckart were pushed into a passive state.
What will it be?
Kieran wondered in his heart. He tapped on Eckart’s shoulder.
“It’s still not the worst yet, if you jolted before the battle, you would lose the war entirely.”
“We are indeed a bit behind, but catching up to the enemy isn’t that hard,” Kieran said calmly.
His plain and flat tone never changed from the start, his expressionless face didn’t even flinch.
During regular tis, his tone and expression ant nothing, but at this mont, it provided quite the comfort and support to Eckart.
Eckart rembered the magical feats of Kieran from last night.
There might still be a chance for a coback!
The thought appeared in Eckart’s heart, he swiftly adjusted his mood and condition.
No one wanted to lose!
No one wanted to be dood forever!
If he had the chance... He would risk it!
Huu! Huu!
Multiple deep breaths later, Eckart returned to normal.
“After we get out, the reporters will swarm us.”
“2567, you can stay quiet, leave everything to !”
“Lyn Amie, I know you will be neglected, so you go and find out what else was kept a secret from us!” Eckart said quickly.
He looked at the reporters who were swarming their minivan, he felt like he saw a bunch of sharks swimming towards blood.
Once, Eckart was one of the sharks, but now?
He is a warrior who fought the sharks!
Ka!
The door was opened, Eckart jumped out of the minivan.
Kieran looked at the director’s back, he smiled for a split second before returning to normal.
Kieran had a decent image of Eckart, the director knew what kind of role he was playing in this collaboration, what kind of relationship they were had, and also understood when to advance, as well as when to retreat.
Especially the latter, Kieran admired him for that.
If he had the option, Kieran would not want to switch collaborators, but more importantly, changing to new a collaborator would burn a lot of ti, and it was sothing Kieran wasn’t willing to see. Additionally, if he had to solve the problems left behind by Eckart, the ti spent wouldn’t be just a day or two.
Kieran was certain Eckart’s enemies had treated him as one of Eckart’s n.
The enemies were not to be blad, though, because Kieran was relying on Eckart to accelerate his plans anyway.
So, to assure the progress of his plan, Kieran hoped that nothing would happen to Eckart, and to ensure the upcoming plan would be smoother in addition to avoiding problems like the one occurring today, Eckart’s enemies had to be removed.
Though, those were the matters to be considered after solving the problem at hand.
Now?
Kacha! Kacha!
A series of flashes lit up before Kieran’s eyes.
The blinding lights would either cause a common man to shy away with closed eyes or raised his hand to block the caras.
Neither one was appropriate for the occasion, though, and so intentional parties would surely use it to make a big fuss, but Kieran disappointed them.
He stood there like a straight pole, looking plain and still, his eyes didn’t even flinch and allowed the cara to capture his image.
The flashes shone for over a dozen seconds before pausing slightly.
Then, many microphones were extended to Kieran’s face.
“Mr. 2567, are you here to answer the challenge from Lady Nuna and Mr. Kaomu?”
“Mr. 2567, do you really think this murder is what Mr. Kaomu claid? The whole rehabilitation center is an ominous spot?”
“Lady Nuna sensed the soul of the dead soldiers, can you sense it as well?”
...
Questions were heard in close succession as if Kieran had walked into a clamoring market.
Eckart beside Kieran wanted to answer on behalf of Kieran, but he couldn’t do so because the mont he opened his mouth, his voice was suppressed by the noisy scene.
Unless Eckart were to use so extraordinary ans, they wouldn’t be able to proceed with their original plan and answer the reporters at their own pace.
Other than that, Kieran sharply noticed a few among the reporters targeting Eckart. A few strong n kept pushing Eckart away from Kieran. Each ti Eckart spoke, these few n would raise their voice to counter him, asking the questions that the other reporters had asked; on top of that, they also violently pushed Eckart away with their body, muffling Eckart’s voice.
Eckart wasn’t scrawny by any ans; he was just a man with a healthy physique, but compared to the few strong n, he wasn’t their match.
Kieran saw each ti Eckart suffered a push, his brows would tighten, and his face would twitch.
“A cheap and effective way,” Kieran comnted.
Then, he calmly glanced over the reporters.
The questions and clamoring sohow dimd down and eventually went quiet.
All the reporters who Kieran looked at felt a coldness in their hearts, goosebumps filled their skins and shivers ran through their bodies, even their throats felt dry and uncomfortable.
They felt like they saw a black figure slowly walking in a sea of blood and a mountain of corpses.
Fear spread like the plague.
The reporters unconsciously stepped back, even the few strong ones started to back off, but Kieran didn’t plan to let them go.
He walked towards the few of them and started to mutter.
“All things on earth with all kinds of forms.”
“All things, especially the human heart, are ever-changing.”
“The noble soul walked in pity.”
“The despicable soul tornted by malevolence.”
“You people, where are you from?”
