After finishing sweeping, Raven left the tunnel and easily found Carin when he left the hut.
The two of them were startled by each other.
Karin was shocked to see Raven standing behind him, a gigantic figure with an aura that gave off an endless sense of intimidation.
Levin was frightened and near where Karin had been lurking there were several freshly killed bodies.
"This is an unexpected demon I subdued, dont be afraid, its not aggressive towards us. So... how about you?"
Karin frantically wiped the fresh blood off her body, but the more she wiped, the messier it got. Finally, she plopped down on the ground with a thud and spoke in a stifled tone: "I... I... I suddenly ran into some Black Tide cultists who came to intercept us. I was afraid theyd ruin things for you, so..."
"So you took action?"
"Uh-huh."
Levin found himself sighing countless times today. The wish of the dead ghost Levin, of course, was to hope that Carlin would stay away from bloodshed for the rest of her life and live a plain and ordinary life as an ordinary person. Unfortunately, judging from the current situation, Carlin has never been an ordinary little girl since the beginning.
"Brother... Ive killed so many people, arent you surprised?" Its clear that Karin wants to return to her previous soft and cute image, but its obvious she cant succeed.
Lei Wen smiled wryly: "Then why did I bring this big magic puppet over, and youre not surprised?"
"Because your family is a family of Onmyodo practitioners!" After blurting it out, Karin seemed to regret it and looked down, closing her mouth.
A slip of the tongue often reveals the truth, and in this instant, Leifeng understood a lot and basically knew what was going on.
With difficulty, Raven asked with her remaining memories: "Robert... he..."
"It seems that hiding it is pointless now," Karin said in a low voice. "Hes my father, and were all your Guardians."
"Uh..."
"Sorry, brother! Really sorry! I cant say! Our whole family has made a soul oath. Before you truly awaken to your own bloodline, we are forbidden from revealing any information about your family to you. Believe me! The more you know before you have enough power to protect yourself, the more danger youll be in."
Even though Raven had mentally prepared himself, he was still a little surprised. A family that could arrange for guardians to be given to the children of their descendants must not be a small family. If they could force a family of sorcerers to disperse their children, then their enemies were also quite formidable.
"At least tell me who my opponent is?"
Karin looked worried: "Dad wont say. But from his daily training for me, I can sense that the focus is on responding to assassins sneak attacks."
Raven could only smile bitterly at the mention of assassins.
Can an ordinary force use assassins to kill a master of the One-Stroke Mechanism? At least, it should be the ruler of a country.
"Brother... dont ask me again, Im afraid that if I get excited, Ill really say that name out loud. At that time, its all over."
Refusing to speak implies many situations, the worst of which is that the other party is a god, because only gods can transcend time and space to sense who is mentioning their name.
There are at least five or six gods who like to cultivate followers among assassins, none of whom are easy to deal with: the Night Lady Shar, the Murder God Cyric, the Thief God Mask, the Doom Goddess Beshaba...
Levin even suspected that Shirek knew he would find trouble for himself in the future, so he came early to take action. In his mind, he calculated his list of enemies: that silly black dragon counted as one, and it seemed that only the followers of the Golden City had an impression of him, this hatred couldnt be resolved no matter what.
Then stir up the Blackened Church to plot his murder, and count as one of them.
Its possible that the one who killed Raven family members is the third one.
Its really giving me a headache now.
"Alright! Alright! I promise you, I wont press you for answers anymore. You can tell me when youre ready in the future." With that, Raven stepped forward and gently wiped away the bloodstains on Carlins face.
"Brother... you really dont blame me? I killed someone... and in the future, can I still call you brother? Although youre not my real brother, but Ive always treated you as one... I..." Raven had always hoped that Karin would remain a simple-minded little girl. Karin was deeply impressed by this. She was bewildered, unsure if her current self would be accepted by Raven.
In Ravens view, this is not a big deal. Rather, the stronger Karin is, the better it is for Raven. In times of great change, having to spare a hand to protect a completely helpless family member would be a headache.
Gently kissing Karins forehead, Raven revealed a natural smile: "The world has changed. Havent you noticed that the recent monster attacks on human territory have become more frequent? In my dreams, I often see the world being destroyed... I dont know if this represents an omen, but I clearly feel that we need power."
Karin was taken aback, her mind digesting Ravens words.
"Karin... having gone through life and death, Ive come to realize. We cant go back to the past anymore. Im no longer that half-elf kid who only liked reading books, and youre no longer that little girl who only knew how to cry. I... if it were me from before, maybe I really would have hated you for killing people. But now, I want to become a strong adventurer together with you, even a Saint Domains strong one."
"Really!? Youre allowing me to become an adventurer?" Ravens words left Carin surprised, finally able to put down a huge burden on her mind: "Then lets shake on it, no backing out okay."
Levin smiled and held out his little finger to Karin.
"Alright, what is your wish?"
Karins face suddenly flushed with excitement, taking a few deep breaths: "I want to become an Oriental Dance Girl!"
"Ah, good choice."
Eastern Dance Girl is great! Putting aside the settings of previous games, Lewin always thought that Eastern Dance Girl should be considered a female version of a wandering poet. A jack-of-all-trades plus a guest assassin. And most importantly, with Karins beautiful face, it wouldnt go to waste.
The only problem is that its too much trouble to get a job, and it seems like I have to run all the way outside of Aocheng Continent.
"Alright then, no problem. But youd better work hard to level up, okay? Im already a 9th-level assassin."
"Ah! I havent even started working, Im just a 4th level hunter." Carin was shocked. How could Raven be at level 9 already? And an assassin?! When did he start working?!
Karins mind was full of question marks, but due to her trust in Raven, she didnt get hung up on the profession of assassin. In the little girls opinion, Raven had also received some training as a hunter and had skills such as concealment, so it wouldnt be too difficult for him to switch professions to become an assassin; it was just that the word "assassin" sounded somewhat unpleasant.
"Last night when I jumped into the sewer, I suddenly realized something, and then just went with the feeling." Raven muttered.
Cant help but say, this little girl is really easy to cheat. The basic occupations in the world of Aochuang are only eleven, but there are more than 500 advanced occupations that can be counted. Little girl is not like Rayven, a super high player who can memorize all the characteristics and data of so many occupations, and still believes it after being deceived twice.
The only problem was that Ravens upgrade speed exceeded her cognition, and she suddenly felt a little depressed.
"Do I... still have a chance to catch up with you?"
Lei Wen blinked his eyes and couldnt bear to strike down the little girl: "There will be opportunities. As long as you work hard, everything is possible."
Someone in his heart sighed: he had been a human being for two lifetimes, if Karin could upgrade faster than him, he should really buy a bucket of tofu and drown himself.
"Brother, I always thought you would be the first to get a job as a technician." As she spoke, Carlin glanced again at the quietly standing Yizhen.
"Hmm... dont mind that detail." Raven pulled out a piece of paper from Fakalins body: "Do you know these two people?"
Karin shook her head: "Is this a prophecy fortune slip? Who are they?"
"Im on the Blacklist of the Must-Kill List with them."
"Ah!? We were injured on purpose?"
Levin shook his head: "Of course its not an accident. Now I just want to know if the two groups of people who are going to assassinate me are from the same organization."
Seeing Karins bewildered eyes, Raven knew he had asked in vain.
"Alright, lets pack up and head back to the Golden City."
"I object! Now that assassins have appeared, we should leave here as soon as possible."
"Hey, dear Karin, youre wrong. Mortals cant shake off the tracking of prophecy. We have to go back, or else well be found even if we hide at the end of hell." After saying that, Raven whispered something in Karins ear and finally persuaded the little girl.
Of course, Raven wouldnt tell Carine that another reason he had to go back was nostalgia!
Those who play assassins kill loneliness!
The end of loneliness is either death or explosion!
In the game, completing an important bosss first kill has a world broadcast. Now that Ive finally managed to take down an entire church by myself, how can I not show off a bit?
One day later, a very ordinary cargo carriage drove into the gate of the Adventurers Guild in the Golden City.
Standing in front of the guild hall, Raven suddenly felt a sense of nostalgia. He remembered the first time he entered, couldnt even pass the Adventurers Trial, and was thrown out...
The stone steps underfoot were exquisitely crafted, seemingly the work of dwarves. As Raven stepped forward, the gentle breeze gradually grew hotter. Ahead, the warm glow of the eternal magical lanterns spilled out from the entrance to the great hall, giving off a cozy atmosphere. The occasional voices emanating from within made the hall seem lively but not as boisterous as a marketplace.
This is the staircase leading to becoming stronger.
Here is also the cliff that leads to the downfall of the weak.
As soon as Raven entered the grand hall, she attracted almost all of the adventurers who were chatting idly.
