Kieran spawned inside of an old room. He confirmed that there was nothing inside of it, except for a map of the no.12 highway that connected Flame City to Forest City. He concluded that he was on the run, but Kieran was not afraid of Perforation Sting and decided to return to Flame City; he did not forget to be cautious though. Kieran remembered that he got the Fire Raven from this dungeon’s world , and therefore did not send the Raven out to scout since he knew the natives would recognize the Raven as a fiend. He also worried that the Frost Wolf would also be seen as a fiend, so he didn’t let the pup wander either.

There was a knock at his door, and a voice introducing themselves as room service. Kieran grabbed his [Winchester Hunting Rifle] and shot at them without hesitation. The gun blasted through the door and tore apart the person’s upper body, only leaving their lower torso and legs, which were covered with scales. He then quickly ran out of the room before it was the target of machine gun fire. A missile was then shot at the room by a person who was laughing, saying the bounty would be theirs. Kieran killed this half-fiend, then realized that the two of them were from Forest City. He thought about this and concluded that within Forest City was the divine being that Perforation Sting had previously failed to slay. He did not change his decision to return to Flame City though, because he also realized that Perforation Sting was still targeting the divine being Great Swamp. He then stole a car and started driving, not bothering to clean up the motel that had been destroyed.

The motel had been massacred by the half fiends, so there was a very heavy bloody stench. This, plus the missile, attracted the attention of other humans and half fiends who all decided to start traveling to Flame City as well. The Funeral Society quickly noticed the unusually large amount of half fiends heading toward the city. One Funeral Society member reported this to the Fiend Hunter, Ditko, who immediately started wondering if Kieran was related to it. He read a report and was shocked to see several fiends had gone missing on no.12 highway. Fuco, a member of the Funeral Society’s intelligence department, told Ditko that it was the truth despite how unbelievable it sounded. Ditko again thought of Kieran, knowing that very few people had the strength needed to fight these fiends, and he told Fuco to give this report to the Fiend Exorcist, Ren, while he personally checked out the highway.

In an alley in Flame City, a person named Albunai was waiting with a paper bag. The person he was waiting for arrived, late, and this person explained that the Inspector, Oaker, was on his tail and he needed to shake him. Albunai was unsympathetic and casually waved his hand, but the wave created such a powerful force that the person was sent flying. He hit a wall, and many bones in his body broke instantly; he apologized to Albunai, fearful of his strength. Albunai threw the paper bag at the person and took money from his pocket before leaving the alley, not caring about the person who was seriously injured. He then went to an underground bar and met with another person named Zackary. Zackary was drinking casually, and Albunai told him that he finished his job. Albunai did not like working with Zackary because he thought of him as unreliable, even though both of them were very powerful members of Perforation Sting. Zackary assured Albunai that he finished his job as well, and began to say something else, but Albunai left immediately after hearing Zackary was done with his job. Zackary sighed and continued speaking to himself, saying that everyone who was sent to pursue Kieran had gone missing.

At the police station, Inspector Oaker was walking home while also worrying about the state of Flame City; crime had greatly increased lately, and he was afraid it would only continue to increase. He reached his home and was shocked to see Kieran. Oaker was happy at first, but then grew angry as he demanded to know why Kieran returned to this city where he was being hunted. Kieran said that he was not a criminal, and asked Oaker for some food. As Oaker heated up some leftovers, he became ashamed of himself for not being able to help Kieran, especially since Kieran had helped him before. When the food was done, Oaker couldn’t handle the shame anymore and asked Kieran how he could help him. Kieran revealed that he had come to Oaker’s house to gather new information about Flame City since he left. Oaker immediately mentioned the increased criminal gang activity, but he realized that Kieran wasn’t interested in that. Kieran asked more about them anyway, and Oaker explained that there had always been gang conflicts on Dublin Street, the street connecting the Wealthy district and the slums, but recently, one gang leader, Footer, had rapidly increased the number of men in his gang and had also declared wars against several other gangs. Oaker said that despite the increased crimes and gang wars, the most unusual part of it was that the gangs suddenly became very cautious.

Oaker did not get a chance to elaborate before a bullet was shot into Oaker’s home. Kieran quickly grabbed Oaker and moved him out of the way of the bullet. Oaker hid while Kieran went and apprehended the sniper. Oaker instantly recognized a pentagram tattoo on the sniper’s neck, and told Kieran that it was Footer’s mark; only core members of Footer’s gang had this tattoo. Oaker was about to make a call, but Kieran stopped him and asked Oaker if he could investigate this gang. Oaker was suspicious, since he knew Kieran wouldn’t do something like this out of the goodness of his heart, but he agreed on the condition that he supervises Kieran’s investigation.

Footer was on a sofa, writhing in pain; his entire body was wrapped in bandages and in splints and he was biting onto a towel to stop himself from screaming from the pain. This lasted for a while before the pain eventually subsided, and he revealed that he was exercising his body with a method that would fill his body with energy and strength with every session. He welcomed the strength he felt, but he still wanted more power. He got up and was about to go outside, but he suddenly felt a great sense of danger; he rolled to the side and pulled out a gun, but he realized that he did not see anyone. He did see a ball of hair though, and he realized that it was a fiend as he shot a few bullets at it while he ran. He regretted his lack of strength as the hairball lunged at him and tangled him, immobilizing and gagging him.

Oaker and Kieran arrived and found Footer, still tangled by the Hair Fiend, but Footer looked at Kieran with fear. Kieran saw this and asked him if he was his enemy, knowing that the only enemies he has in this dungeon is Perforation Sting. Footer looked even more afraid, telling Kieran that he was right; Kieran then started theorizing about Perforation Sting, and concluded that they wanted to destroy Flame City in order to kill Great Swamp. Kieran then left after instructing Oaker to interrogate Footer. That night, the slums went into a panic when the gang members realized Footer had disappeared. All throughout the night, gunshots could be heard from the slums, though the police did not get involved with the gangs. When morning arrived, the fights died down and the slum was filled with bodies. Kieran left the slums, disappointed, as he had been scouting the slums all night hoping that Perforation Sting would reveal themselves.

Kieran went to Oaker’s house, where Oaker greeted him by giving him the results of Footer’s interrogation. Oaker was disappointed, because Footer had only confessed to a few petty crimes. Kieran asked if he could interrogate Footer, and Oaker agreed. They went to the interrogation room and Kieran used [Mesly Ring] on Footer.

In Footer’s office in Dublin Street, Footer’s two right hand men, Kray and Kairi, were arguing about which of them would become the next boss. They then left the office, only to see Footer standing outside the door. They were shocked, and Kray was about to fight him, when he released a cold aura. Kray and Kairi fell to the ground from the power of the aura, and “Footer” then introduced himself as Ethan Hunt, Footer’s cousin. Ethan said that Footer had to leave for a while, and that he would be taking over in his stead. The strong aura prevented Kray and Kairi from protesting. Ethan Hunt ordered the two to gather the other gang members as he entered the office. When Kray and Kairi left, it was revealed that Ethan was actually Kieran in disguise. He learned from Footer that Perforation Sting had traded him some drugs that could make him stronger; Kieran found the [Slither Secret Pill]s and realized that Perforation Sting was planning on controlling people through these drugs. Kray and Kairi returned with the other gang members, and Kieran gave a brief speech, saying his goal was to bring great wealth to this gang, but first he wanted to know who they were fighting last night.

Police were cleaning up the slums from last night when they saw Kieran’s gang starting to mobilize. They laughed, hoping more gang members would kill each other in a fight, but they were filled with fear when Kieran arrived, carrying a turret. The officers called for backup, requesting an army as Kieran started leveling buildings with the turret. When Kieran was done leveling the buildings, he declared that Dublin Street belonged to him. The officers were terrified, and when the gang started firing their guns into the sky, they retreated. Kieran then gave the order for his gang to charge into Dublin to secure it from the other gangs. Kieran revealed that he made such a big commotion to draw the attention of other gangs, and hopefully also Perforation Sting. Over the next few days, Kieran’s gang slowly took over Dublin Street until they had defeated every other rival gang.

At the foot of the mountain that Great Swamp lived on, was a very wealthy street named Mountain Foot Street. A limo arrived at a building on this street, and a fat man named Swrei got out. Another limo arrived, and a well-dressed man covered in scars named Kanbecker got out. The two men started taunting each other, and their bodyguards were about to start fighting each other, when someone from inside the building told them to stop fighting. They walked inside to meet an elderly man named Pisker, who was in charge of all the illegal businesses within Flame City. The three of them discussed Dublin Street and Ethan Hunt before Pisker ordered one of them to kill Kieran. Kanbecker and Swrei argued with each other before a grenade was thrown into the room they were in; the two jumped out of the way, but Pisker used a force to grab them and force them on top of the grenade. When it exploded, both Kanbecker and Swrei were dead, and Pisker was extremely angry. Pisker used his powers to monitor the outside, looking for the source of the grenade, but Kieran appeared behind him and shot him in the head. Kieran grabbed the [Vast Remnant Eye] from Pisker before quickly leaving.

Guards swarmed the building, the entire Mountain Foot Street fell into panic, and Flame City as a whole was concerned about the three deaths. Kieran returned to his gang, and ordered Kairi and Kray to take control of the land and men that Kanbecker, Swrei, and Pisker commanded. Kieran’s gang fought the three men’s gangs all night; Oaker tried his best to arrest as many gang members as possible, but he was frustrated with how leniently they would be charged. Fed up, he decided to enter Dublin Street.

Kieran was eating food, hoping to further strengthen Gluttony, though his current meal did not tempt the Sin. Kieran then heard Oaker’s footsteps outside of his door, and had Kray invite him in. Oaker entered, not recognizing Kieran through his Ethan Hunt disguise, and was angry when he saw a kidnapped chef. Oaker yelled at Kieran, and Kieran allowed the chef to go after ordering Kray to compensate the chef for the meals he cooked. When Kray left, it was just Kieran, Oaker, and Oaker’s aide left in the room. Oaker quickly asked Kieran to pull his men back from streets other than Dublin, and Kieran agreed on the condition that he could speak with the aide. Exposed, the aide dropped his nervous look and asked Oaker to allow him to speak with Kieran. Oaker angrily left, and the aide arrogantly started talking to Kieran, before Kieran used [Deadman’s Gaze] on him, killing him. Kray and Oaker returned, and Kieran claimed to not be responsible for the aide’s death, giving Oaker the surveillance tape that clearly showed the aide dying without Kieran moving. Oaker took the tape and left, making Kieran realize that Oaker and the other officers of Flame City must be familiar with fiends.

Zackary, the person who Albunai met with in the underground bar, walked into Kieran’s office. He expressed goodwill, but Kieran was suspicious of how polite he was being and an odd aura that Zackary had. Zackary told Kieran about an auction that he wanted to invite Kieran to, where the two of them would work together; he then began a really long speech that Kieran was unsure if it was a code or a test. Kieran secretly summoned Bloody Mary before slamming on his desk to interrupt Zackary, and Kray entered the room with some other gang members. Zackary reminded Kieran that he came with goodwill, and gave Kieran a check for a hundred thousand dollars as a show of sincerity. Kieran pretended to be interested, but then Bloody Mary, disguised as the Bird of Death, showed up at the window and shot Zackary. Zackary was still alive, and they all looked at Bloody Mary who ran after pretending to not be able to shoot any more bullets.

Kieran stopped his gang members from shooting Bloody Mary, and coldly turned to Zackary, asking him why the Bird of Death was here. Zackary denied being involved with the Bird of Death and Perforation Sting, but as he said that another person entered the room. This man told Kieran that Zackary was both involved with the Bird of Death and Perforation Sting, though Zackary claimed this to be slander. The two then started arguing about the Bird of Death and Artitelgar, Great Swamp, as Kieran watched silently, knowing that the two of them were putting on a show. He then ordered the two of them to stop arguing, and the man introduced himself as Beck, and told Kieran that he had done the necessary procedures to transfer Pisker’s mansion on Mountain Foot Street to Kieran along with all of the belongings inside of it. Kieran accepted the mansion and dismissed Beck, but he stopped Beck from taking Zackary by saying that he would visit the auction with Zackary. Kieran’s men then helped Zackary into a different room to treat the gunshot wounds; he did not want to let Zackary go without learning his relationship with Perforation Sting.

Beck was in his car, deeming that Ethan Hunt was greedy and weak, and cursed Oaker’s aide for messing up his mission. He urged the driver to speed up, and they soon arrived at an underground parking lot. He went into an elevator leading to the top floor of an office building. Within the room, there were many high ranking officials of Flame City, who eagerly listened to Beck’s report. Beck claimed that Ethan Hunt is a half-fiend. A few officials started talking amongst themselves, each one releasing their aura, causing varying effects. When they calmed down, Beck then told them that his investigation into Perforation Sting had no news. He also reported that the Bird of Death showed up at Ethan Hunt’s office and was fighting Perforation Sting, though he did not name Zackary. He then left the room.

At Rassho Temple, Tanya and Kana had learned of Kieran’s return to Flame City and wanted to help him. Kana wanted to make some plans, but Tanya pulled out a voodoo doll, which disappointed Kana. Tanya said her mother gave the doll to her, assuring herself that it would work. She wrote “Perforation Sting” on the doll and then stabbed it with a silver needle.

A few days later, there was a large gathering of all the members of Kieran’s gang. Kray drew the attention of the crowd and then showed them the drugs that Kieran found in Footer’s desk, ordering them all to find more of these drugs, or anyone related to them. Meanwhile, Kairi was reporting to Kieran that they had almost taken over all of the rival gang turfs. Kairi then reported that the Bird of Death had attacked Perforation Sting at several different locations recently. Kieran dismissed Kairi and ordered him to find another chef to cook a meal for him. When Kairi left, Kieran had Zackary brought to him, who was still very polite despite the obvious torture wounds on his body. Kieran ordered his men to kill him, and when Zackary realized he was serious, he finally broke his politeness and yelled at Kieran. Kieran grabbed a gun and put it against Zackary’s head, and let the Devil’s aura spill out; he could not use [Mesly Ring] on Zackary because he was afraid of Perforation Sting’s God noticing and retaliating. Zackary agreed to speak after feeling the devil’s aura. After Kieran’s men left, Zackary started telling him that there would be Slither Pills at the auction, but he said that since Kieran was already so strong, the Slither Pills would not work on him. Zackary then asked to make a phone call.

Albunai was reading a note that was angering him. After destroying the note, he was about to leave the room when a telephone rang. He knew very few people knew this number, so he answered it. Zackary was on the other end, and he told Albunai that he found a collaborator who would help Albunai with his plans in exchange for some advanced Slither Pills. Albunai and Zackary worked out the details, then Zackary hung up, assuring Kieran that Albunai would come.

Albunai arrived at Dublin Street, intending on killing both Ethan Hunt and Zackary. Kieran’s gang members led Albunai to Kieran’s office, where he was smoking a cigar that filled the room with smoke. Before Albunai arrived at the office, Zackary exited to meet Albunai first, but when Albunai saw Zackary, he started transforming into a snake person and attacked Zackary. Zackary dodged the attack and returned to the office, where he shut the door. Albunai was then trapped in the hallway outside of the office, where he realized the hallway was filling with liquid nitrogen. He tried desperately to escape, but was unable to before falling unconscious and freezing. The office door opened and several gang members cleaned up the liquid nitrogen; Zackary told Kieran that he could do whatever he wanted with Albunai, who was still alive within the ice, but then Bloody Mary, still disguised as the Bird of Death, suddenly appeared and shot Albunai, shattering his body into pieces.

Kieran again pointed his gun at Zackary, demanding to know why the Bird of Death was here, and would not accept that Zackary was unrelated. He then asked Zackary why, as a member of Perforation Sting, he was not killed by the Bird of Death who had recently been targeting Perforation Sting members. He then accused Zackary of working with the Bird of Death, and threatened to turn him in to Perforation Sting. Zackary then explained that he was from Forest City and theorized that the Bird of Death did not want to anger the god of Forest City by killing him. Zackary then continued to explain that he was sent to Flame City by his god in order to infiltrate Perforation Sting; all proof of his real identity had been destroyed. Kieran pretended to be angry at Albunai’s death and scared of Perforation Sting, which convinced Zackary to share with him a plan. Zackary reminded Kieran of the auction, and told him that in the auction was a map that Great Swamp himself was interested in.

Zackary said he would elaborate on the plans later, and instructed Kieran to continue expanding his gang; Kieran then allowed Zackary to leave. As Zackary left the building, he called someone and told them that their plans could begin. He then went to his hideout. In his office, Kieran gave the Fire Raven the [Fire Lineage Essence], which upgraded it to [Fire Raven General].

[Triggered special event: A Hurried Auction]

[A Hurried Auction: You and Zackary have agreed to a joint auction and it will start soon. This auction will attract many other faction’s intentional gazes both inside and outside of Flame City…]

[Player is distributed to personal faction based on performance.]

[Note 1: Triggered special event, the better the player performs, the higher the rating]

[Note 2: Player’s performance includes but is not limited to battle.] (Ch 1121)

Kieran, who was no longer disguised as Ethan Hunt, was meeting with Oaker at Mountain Foot Street. They were sitting in an empty public park, waiting for Great Swamp. Just as Oaker was wondering if the god would actually come, Artitelgar walked up behind them. Oaker was surprised, and left to allow Kieran and Artitelgar to speak privately. They spoke briefly, Artitelgar again saying he felt Kieran was very similar to him, and the two of them agreed to collaborate with each other.

Over the next few days, Ethan Hunt continued expanding his gang and he also sent out several invitations to the auction. Kairi and Kray reported to Kieran that they were setting up the venue of the auction at a theatre on Dublin Street. After their report, Kieran fell into thought, until he ordered the two to leave. In the shadows, one of Zackary’s men was watching Kieran and reported his deep thinking to Zackary. Zackary did not mind though, saying Kieran’s greed would make him a better collaborator.

That night, many limos arrived at the theatre, and when all of the rich guests entered the building, they were terrified by the defensive turrets around the theatre. Kairi was in charge of greeting and seating the guests, while Kray was escorting the auction items to their lockboxes. When the two were done with their jobs, they met and smoked together, and they mentioned that someone had contacted them. They said that this person offered them a great deal, but they implied that both of them turned the offer down, fearing that it could cost them their lives. Kieran soon arrived, and they started the auction.

The first item, Artitelgar’s crown, sent the crowd into a frenzy; the bidding quickly went up into the hundreds of millions. Behind the stage, Kray was in shock at how expensive the crown was. He asked Kieran what made it so expensive, since it was made of common gold and gemstones, and Kieran explained that it was because it belonged to Great Swamp. Zackary then appeared, and Kray pointed his gun at him until Kieran ordered Kray to get a chair for him. Zackary sat down and gave Kieran the box with the special item, and Kieran told him that it would enter the auction at dawn.

The auction continued all night, the guests never getting tired or bored of seeing the priceless treasures up for auction. Kairi, who was enjoying being on the stage, announced that it was time for the final item. He rolled out a cart covered with a cloth, but before the final item could be uncovered, the front door was broken open. Beck led the group of people who broke in, and Kairi stopped Kray from pulling out his gun. Kairi tried stalling by asking Beck why he broke in, while Kray tried alerting Kieran of what was happening. One of Beck’s men stopped Kray though, while Beck declared that he would be taking over this auction hall. Kairi was confused, wondering if Beck’s assistance was actually a trap, and scared since Kieran hadn’t shown up yet. Beck and his men then started attacking Kray and Kairi after saying that he already dealt with Kieran. Before Beck’s men could reach Kray and Kairi, the two of them activated a trap that destroyed the stage and revealed a secret passage which they disappeared into. Beck’s men tried following them into the secret passage, but when they neared the stage a bomb went off, killing most of Beck’s men.

Despite the explosion, the last item was unharmed. The cloth burnt away, revealing a long whisker; the whisker summoned a mirage of a dragon. From the dragon hymns could be heard, and the participants of the auction kneeled before it, before the dragon’s head was sliced off. The mirage faded away, and the wind started picking up and turning grey, before the strong grey wind took the shape of a man. They grey man walked through the still-kneeling crowd before reaching the stage. With every step, the crowd’s breathing slowed, until they all eventually died. Beck was still still standing and alive, though he was significantly weakened. He yelled at the grey man, saying Perforation Sting had gone too far, but when he finished his shout, Beck died. The grey man then focused on the whisker and reached out to take it.

Suddenly, Artitelgar’s voice commanded the grey man to stop. The grey man did stop, and looked at Artitelgar in shock. Artitelgar waved a hand, dispelling the wind, which brought life back to the previously lifeless crowd. The grey man taunted Artitelgar, saying Artitelgar was only strong because of his natural advantages, while the grey man had ascended to godhood using his own strength. Artitelgar said the grey man talked too much and attacked him, the force sending him into the sky. The grey man laughed, happy that Artitelgar dared to attack him in the sky, and revealed that his true identity was the God of Forest City.

Kieran and Zachary were still seated. A lotus plant that was concealing their presence was slowly withering on the ground. Before it died, Zachary attacked Kieran with a dagger. Kieran allowed himself to be defeated, and Zachary pierced Kieran’s heart with the dagger. He then pulled out a seed, and watered it with a drop of Kieran’s blood. After throwing the watered seed on the ground, Zachary stabbed himself in the chest and opened the wound enough to allow his own blood to pour onto the growing flower bud. Zachary collapsed onto the ground, and in his half-dead state he thought about a woman that he loved, and he was filled with relief when he saw the plant steadily growing. He allowed the plant to devour his body, and the flower bloomed.

The God of Forest City revealed to Artitelgar that he and the leader of Perforation Sting, Jin, had started working together in order to destroy Flame City. The God of Forest City started getting nervous when he realized that Artitelgar was not concerned with this revelation, and he couldn’t figure out why Artitelgar, who loved his citizens, could still remain calm. The God of Forest City continued taunting Artitelgar, saying his citizens weren’t loyal, until Artitelgar pulled out [Arrogant Word]. The God of Forest City realized that this was not Artitelgar.

Beck was riding on a motorcycle, leaving the auction house. The motorcycle was very fast, but Beck was in a rush and still felt it was too slow. Beck revealed that he lusted to become a God, and he did not feel bad about betraying Artitelgar. He suddenly braked his motorcycle, the fast stop throwing him off of the vehicle. The motorcycle exploded. He then knelt down before the grey man who appeared in front of him, and called him “your majesty”. Beck then started leading the grey man through Flame City’s outskirts. The citizens of the outskirts tried calling the police when they heard the motorcycle’s explosion, but their phones were disconnected and the electricity was going out. As citizens looked outside and saw the grey man, they were filled with fear and retreated back into their homes. The fear they felt was carried by the wind back to the grey man, who stopped to savor the strong fear.

Beck continued to lead the grey man to an alleyway, where they entered a building. The building was guarded by many powerful people, but the grey man killed them all with a single breath. They continued through the building until they reached a stone gate with carvings of the dragon-snake creature. It was the biggest vein of the earth nodes. Beck instructed the grey man to push open the gate, saying the node was behind the gate, but Beck actually knew that the gate itself was the node and if the grey man were to push it open it would kill him. Beck would use the death of the grey man to ascend to Godhood, but before the grey man’s palm touched the node, Beck was picked up and thrown against the node. The force of Beck being thrown against the gate did not open it, so the grey man smashed the node apart. This created an explosion that forced the grey man, the leader of Perforation Sting, Jin, back. Behind the destroyed stone gate was Artitelgar, and behind Artitelgar was another stone gate.

It was then revealed that the God of Forest City disguised himself as Jin, and Artitelgar helped disguise Kieran as Great Swamp. Kieran and the God of Forest City fought. Meanwhile, the stone gate that the real Jin just destroyed was a fake, and the real one was behind the real Great Swamp. Jin realized that everything was a trap, but he was still confident that the combined forces of him and the God of Forest City would be able to kill Artitelgar. Artitelgar then reminded Jin of his new ally, but Jin did not believe that Kieran was strong enough to fight the God of Forest City. Artitelgar then revealed that Kieran asked him to bring Jin to him alive, before attacking Jin.

Kieran and the God of Forest City were fighting in the air. [Arrogant Word] had sliced the God in half, but he did not die. The God then turned into a liquid form that spammed Kieran with Plague notifications. Kieran started charging up some Devil Flame which evaporated a lot of the God’s liquid form, and [Knight of Plague Body Tempering Art] absorbed the Plague energy. The God disappeared, and reappeared on the ground surrounded by hundreds of his followers. The followers charged at Kieran, following their God’s orders, but at that moment the sun started to rise on the horizon. Kieran used [Dawn Summon] to summon the riders of Burning Dawn. The believers of the God of Forest City used bullets and grenades to fight the riders, but all of their weapons were ineffective. The Burning Dawn riders easily and quickly cut down the elite troops of Forest City. The God was shocked, not knowing how Kieran summoned the riders, but he remained calm, which also calmed the remaining troops. The God then ordered his troops to kill the riders, and the troops charged forward, enveloped with the God of Forest City’s aura.

However, Kieran raised his hand, and the riders were enveloped with Dawn Force; the Dawn Force powered up the riders more than the God’s aura powered up the troops. The God was angered, as he prided himself in his abilities to buff his troops, and he demanded to know who Kieran was. Kieran turned around, allowing the golden light of dawn to shine on [Crows Black Feather], and the Fire Raven landed on his shoulder. The God recognized Kieran as the Bird of Death, and the riders slew the God. When the God of Forest City was slain, a golden radiance flew into Kieran’s body. It devoured some of the darkness and chaos within Kieran’s body, but Kieran was disappointed at how little of an effect it made on the chaos. Kieran then realized the radiance was dissipating, and the radiance started flying away, toward Rassho Temple.

Inside Rassho Temple, Tanya was looking into a crystal ball. Kana was standing next to her, wondering why the elder of the temple was putting so much faith into Tanya. Kana started suggesting that Tanya learn how to fight instead of spending her time with crystal balls, voodoo dolls, and prayers, but Tanya was firm in her belief that she was helping Kieran. A bird then flew into the room and started speaking to Kana with chirps. Kana was shocked to learn from the bird that Kieran had slain the God of Forest City, and Tanya was very happy to hear that. She pulled out the voodoo doll with “Perforation Sting” and “God of Forest City” written on it, and saw that the paper was curling in the corners. Kana and Tanya were happy when they realized it meant Kieran would eventually become a God. Kana started teasing Tanya, saying that when Kieran becomes a God, they have to refer to him as “your majesty” and cannot refer to him by name anymore. Tanya got upset, and declared that she would become a God as well, so that she could continue to refer to Kieran by name. At that moment, the golden radiance from the God of Forest City entered the room and flooded Tanya’s body, turning her into a God.

Kana did not know what to do, and was worried that the radiance was the work of a fiend. When the radiance fully dissipated Tanya received a vision of Kieran coming to Rassho Temple, and she exited the room with a superhuman speed. Kana quickly followed, and saw Kieran and Tanya outside. Kieran looked at Tanya, having seen what happened with the radiance, and remembered what Rachel told him about Divine Descendents; Kieran realized that Tanya was the descendent of a Divine being, and she is only able to use her powers now that she is no longer mortal. Kieran noticed the voodoo doll and asked if he could see it, which Tanya agreed to. Kieran realized that the power of luck was scary as he returned the [Death Luck Absorber]. Soon the monk of the Temple arrived, and when Kana and Tanya saluted him, he told Tanya that Gods shouldn’t salute mortals. Tanya protested, then introduced the monk to Kieran.

The monk, Kieran, Kana, and Tanya went inside to eat breakfast, where Kieran asked the monk about Tanya’s change. The monk implied he used to collaborate with Artitelgar, like Kieran, then he explained that Tanya’s mother told him about her bloodline. Tanya was brought to Flame City since Artitelgar was well known for protecting his citizens. They then ate breakfast, which Gluttony was roused by, when Artitelgar entered the room. Kieran ignored Artitelgar and felt how Gluttony’s energy continued to dispel the darkness and chaos within his body. However, he suddenly got dizzy and had to prop himself up with his arm to prevent himself from falling down. This concerned Kieran, but he realized that the darkness was still steadily being dispelled, so he ignored the dizziness and picked himself back up. He then faced Artitelgar who was now sitting across from him.

Artitelgar seriously told Kieran that he was doing something dangerous after using his powers to separate the room from the rest of Rassho Temple, giving the two of them privacy. Kieran, despite being Artitelgar’s ally, was vigilant and closely examined the magic that Artitelgar used. Kieran remembered Rachel’s advice to not fight a God within their own city when he wondered if he could fight Artitelgar. Artitelgar saw Kieran’s vigilance and reminded him that they signed a contract, but Kieran reminded Artitelgar that the contract was not absolute. Kieran asked if he knew about the involvement of the [Death Luck Absorber], but Artitelgar denied, saying he was not omniscient. Artitelgar began mentioning some more plans, but changed the subject when he saw Kieran’s continued vigilance. He then brought out Jin, the leader of Perforation Sting, who was still alive. The [Great Swamp Scale] and the stone tablet embedded with many jewels floated out of Kieran’s backpack; the energy from the jewels was then absorbed by the [Great Swamp Scale], before returning to Kieran. Kieran was disappointed with the powers of the scale. Artitelgar then asked to see the Fire Raven, and told Kieran that the Raven is a naturally weak animal, though if Kieran were to sacrifice the [Great Swamp Scale], he could increase the Raven’s strength more. Kieran very quickly gave Artitelgar the scale back, and Artitelgar allowed a drop of his own blood to drop onto the scale, making it shine with red light. Kieran gave the Fire Raven permission to go to the scale, and the Raven flew into the light.

Kieran was shocked to see envy in Artitelgar’s face, and Artitelgar explained that he was originally a Fiend before obtaining Godhood. He was jealous of how easy it is for the Fire Raven to break through its limits, when Artitelgar is so strong that he cannot break through his limits anymore. Kieran quickly realized that Artitelgar’s goals for their collaboration is to break through his limits again. Artitelgar told Kieran that there was a place where his father left some things for him, and he needed to reach that place in order to break through his limits. Kieran did not ask anything else before turning to Jin; Kieran charged up some Devil Fire and killed Jin.

The Fire Raven returned to Kieran’s side, significantly stronger, and he got [Jin’s Remains] from Jin. Artitelgar tried having an idle conversation with Kieran, but he gave up when Kieran said he wanted to see the God of Forest City’s treasures. Artitelgar dispelled his magic, returning Kieran to Rassho Temple alone. Kieran saw the monk standing with a backpack, who told Kieran that Kana and Tanya were still packing. The members of the Temple would be going to Forest City with Kieran. Kieran instructed the monk to have the Temple leave first, and Kieran would head toward Forest City later. Tanya was disappointed when she saw Kieran leave, but the monk convinced her not to stop Kieran.

In the Funeral Society, Fuco was reading reports about what happened in Flame City. He was very surprised to hear Kieran killed both the God of Forest City and Jin. He ran out of his office to report this to Ditko, but when he reached the office door, Ditko exited; Fuco saw Kieran inside the office. Ditko put the entire building in lockdown before returning to the office. Inside the office Kieran told the fiend exorcist Ren that although he was going to take over Forest City, he would like the Funeral Society to manage the city. In exchange, Kieran wants the Funeral Society to prevent any chaos in the city, to keep the treasures from being plundered. Ren realized this would be very difficult, but he also knew how good the opportunity to manage a city was, so he accepted. A few minutes later, Ren returned, saying he had made arrangements within Forest City. Kieran then left, and Ren ordered Ditko to arrange for the Funeral Society to immediately leave for Forest City.

Inside Forest City, all the citizens were anxiously waiting at the temple for news. A person named Morden and a group of other high-profile people of Forest City entered the temple, only to see that many other people with a high status had already entered the temple before them. Morden pushed through these people and reached an elder named Hermair, and asked him about the news about Flame City. When Morden asked about the God of Forest City’s defeat, Hermair started beating Morden and declared that a mortal cannot defeat a God. The group of people agreed with Hermair, and started calling for the priest of the temple to punish Morden. The priest then came running out of the temple, only to be shot dead. A squadron of men entered the temple and declared they would be taking over the temple for Kieran.

Hermair quickly realized the implication that the God of Forest City actually was killed, but Morden acted first and declared to the squadron that he would welcome the new God. Hayden Ow, the leader of the squadron, ordered the group of people to maintain the order of Forest City before Kieran arrived. After the group agreed, Hayden Ow led his men further into the Temple to guard it. When the squadron was gone, Morden started beating Hermair to death.

Hayden, inside the temple, was afraid that the priest who tried running away meant that the treasure vaults had already been emptied. When he entered the main hall, he saw that it was flooded with dead bodies and blood. He then saw Neil, the Forest City Archpriest, guarding the vault with a bloodied sword in his hand. Hayden was shocked, since Neil was a cowardly person; he never would have thought that Neil would guard the vault with his life. They respectfully set Neil’s body aside while they looted and set fire to all the other bodies.

That afternoon, the Funeral Society members were lining up outside of the temple, equipped with giant kite shields. The citizens were watching nervously. The Fire Raven flew by Hayden, and he knelt, welcoming Kieran’s arrival. With that, all of the other Funeral Society members knelt as well, and repeated the greeting. A car driven by Oaker pulled up, and he, the monk, Kana, and Tanya were confused about the welcome since Kieran did not travel with them. They continued slowly driving forward though, and as they approached the temple the grey storm clouds parted, and golden light poured down, revealing Kieran’s figure, which was being haloed by the golden light. Tanya got out of the car and ran over to Kieran, and she started radiating golden light when she greeted Kieran. The golden radiance felt very warm and comforting, but Kieran fought the relaxing feeling by allowing the Devil force and Cardinal Sins force to circulate within his body.

[Absorbed special ruled energy, converting into 1 Golden Attribute Point…] (Ch 1143)

Kieran was shocked to see he got a Golden Attribute Point. He looked at Tanya, but saw she was in a trance caused by the overwhelming feeling of relaxation and calmness. He realized this power was caused passively, that she did not actively choose to do this, and Kieran realized that there were Earth vein nodes underneath the city which were causing this. He got two more Golden Attribute Points before the golden light died down, and Tanya, the Fire Raven, and the Frost Wolf pup woke up from their trance. All of them looked like they also gained something from the experience. Everyone who was watching, the citizens, the Funeral Society, and even Oaker and Kana felt like they had seen a divine miracle, and the citizens all knelt and started praying.

The name of the temple was the Divine Garden; inside it was a garden whose flowers never withered, and a ceiling embedded with diamonds in a way that looked like the starry night sky. Kieran was sitting on the throne, while Hayden and Tanya were standing in front of him. Hayden reported to Kieran, saying they were successful in preventing anyone from taking anything in the temple and keeping order in the city. Hayden then gave Kieran a scroll that was found in archpriest Neil’s room. It was a kind of scroll made during a war that will only display what is written on it once before completely vanishing. Hayden then assured Kieran that he had already dispatched Funeral Society members to scour the city looking for anyone suspicious.

Hayden then led Kieran to the treasury, explaining how Neil protected it from greedy priests. When unlocking the door, Kieran immediately turned around and left, asking Hayden where Neil’s body was buried. Hayden was confused, but led Kieran to the cemetery. When they reached Neil’s grave, Kieran and Hayden hid, and a few moments later, the real Neil who was still alive arrived also. Neil then started digging up his grave, saying to himself that the real treasures were here. As he was digging, someone came up behind Neil and shot him to death. This person then finished digging up the grave, and he pried open the coffin. When the coffin was opened, a pair of hands reached out of the coffin and pulled the man into it. Hayden could hear the man being eaten within the coffin. Hayden slowly reached for his gun, before hearing breathing behind him.

Hayden shot at the thing behind him, before seeing that it was a corpse puppet. He shot it in the head, and it died for good. Hayden realized that since this Corpse Puppet had the intelligence to sneak up behind him, that it meant there was a Corpse Ghoul in the cemetery commanding it. Hayden threw a grenade into the coffin, where he could still see the hands of the fiend inside it. After the grenade exploded, Hayden still heard the roar of the fiend from the grave, and hundreds of Corpse Puppets started raising from their graves. Hayden fought against the Corpse Puppets that swarmed him, and he fought fiercely until his reinforcements arrived. It was only then that he wondered where Kieran was.

Hayden then saw Kieran also fighting the Corpse Puppets, using his bare hands and swords to rip them into shreds. With the help of the reinforcements, they quickly killed all of the Puppets and the Corpse Ghoul. Hayden then told Kieran he was suspicious of the Corpse Puppets, saying he felt they were unusually strong. Hayden’s assistant, Fergus, then reported that there was a group of armed people gathering within Forest City. Hayden felt something was wrong, but he did not act fast enough before Fergus shot an arrow from the “crossbow abandoned by the God’s” into Kieran’s chest. Fergus was happy that he would become a God after slaying Kieran, and he explained that Neil wanted to collaborate with him to slay Kieran. After mocking Hayden, Fergus realized that he didn’t get the Divine power that you’re supposed to get after slaying a God, and looked at Kieran’s body only to see that Kieran was still very much alive. Kieran then got up after pretending to be dead and interrogated Fergus.

On a street filled with small shops, a man named Scotdery ran a shoe making and repairing business. The fiends Bearman, Hair Fiend, and Fire Brothers, charged into the shop, but Scotdery was easily able to fight all of them. He then cast some magic that allowed him to take control of everyone who was wearing a pair of his shoes. All of the citizens that he had control over started destroying and setting fire to Forest City. Suddenly, the sky collapsed onto Scotdery’s body, crushing him almost to death. He then woke up from an illusion, to see he was still in his shop; Kieran was sitting on a chair beside him. Scotdery was shocked since Kieran was much stronger than he expected. Kieran ordered the Hair Fiend to kill Scotdery, and the Fire Brothers set fire to his shop. Kieran and his fiends left the store while the citizens tried preventing the fire from spreading.

Scotdery’s soul was still alive though. The soul flew to a penthouse in Forest City, where he carved a symbol beneath a window. He then flew to several other locations in the City, where he continued to carve the symbols. He eventually reached his hideout where he possessed a body he had prepared beforehand. He vowed to get revenge, until Kieran appeared behind him. Scotdery was afraid when he realized that Kieran knew of the symbols he carved, and that he was being commanded by another God. Kieran knocked out Scotdery.

That evening, there was a welcoming festival at the temple. Morden and Hayden were welcoming the guests. When they were done, Morden left, and Ren arrived. Hayden greeted Ren, and told him that the Fiend Exorcist Mou sent by the Funeral Society to manage Forest City was rejected by Kieran, who wanted Ren to manage the city instead. Ren and his men entered the temple and ran into Tanya, who was playing with her divination tools. Ren did not know Tanya, but he felt divinity from her so he treated her respectfully. She pulled out her crystal ball even though Ren did not want his future to be read. Ren couldn’t find Kieran so he did as Tanya asked and put his hands on the crystal ball.

A person in the temple named Welkor was watching Ren. When he saw Ren being forced to oblige Tanya, he left the temple and got into a car. He drove to the outskirts of Forest City, where he arrived at an Inn. a crowd of people surrounded his car, but he shooed them off by pulling out a gun. Welkor then went into the inn, where he saw many people he works with. The boss of this group of people, Quincy, asked him about the situation inside of the temple, and Welkor reported that Kieran was severely injured from the “crossbow abandoned by the God’s”. The group of people left after that, leaving only Quincy and Welkor. Welkor wrote a message for Quincy to read while the two of them spoke in code. They came to an agreement and were about to shake hands, but suddenly their hands were severed from their bodies. Their God then walked into the Inn and killed the two of them for betraying him.

The God reached for a glass of alcohol, but Gluttony grabbed it first and chugged it. The God attacked Gluttony, believing him to be Kieran, and used wind blades to hack Gluttony’s body into chunks. From Gluttony’s body came Envy and Wrath. The God quickly hacked Envy and Wrath as well, causing Greed, Sloth, Lust, and Pride to form from their bodies. The God was getting annoyed, but he became infuriated when Pride started mocking him. The God quickly killed Greed, Sloth, and Lust, but Pride summoned a sword that looked like [Arrogant Word] to counterattack. Pride and the God fought until the other Sins reformed their bodies; Gluttony, Wrath, Envy, and Greed restrained the God’s body and started devouring him.

As the party in the temple was ongoing, a group of people were hiding in civilian homes waiting for orders. The God of Many City was telling his men that the God of Leaf City left Leaf City and was in Forest City. He believed that since the God of Leaf City was a weak God, and because Kieran was injured from the “crossbow abandoned by the God’s”, he would be able to kill both Kieran and the God of Leaf City. The God then ordered them to assault the temple. As they traveled, before they reached the temple, Kieran’s two-headed serpent appeared and wiped out the entire group. The God of Many City sliced off one of the serpent heads, and the serpent fled. The God then tracked Kieran down, finding him in a bedroom with his chest wrapped in bandages and visibly weakened. The God of Many City mocked Kieran’s weakness, saying he had planned for the crossbow to be used against the previous God of Forest City before Kieran killed him first. The God then grabbed Kieran, who was too weak to fight, but while he was savoring killing Kieran, the real Kieran charged up a fireball that instantly destroyed the God’s body.

The God of Many City did not die though, and while in a formless state, cast a very powerful spell. Kieran then saw the entire street turn into a courtroom; the God of Many City was sitting in the Judge’s seat, while Kieran sat in the accused seat. The juries’ seats were filled with many different living beings. Kieran was confident in his Spirit, so he concluded that this was not an illusion. Kieran wondered out loud if the spell merged reality and unreality, and when the God heard that, he started panicking since Kieran shouldn’t have been able to retain his rationality under this spell. The God hastily sentenced Kieran to execution, and two executioners appeared and swung their scyths down. Kieran jumped up and kicked the executioners away, but the God summoned more chains to bind Kieran down. Some javelins formed and flung themselves at Kieran, but he fired another fireball, melting the javelins and killing the God of Many City. With the God’s death, the courtroom faded away.

The God disintegrated to golden radiance, which flooded Kieran’s body. Kieran felt the radiance again start to clear up a little bit of the darkness and chaos within his body and mind, and Kieran again wondered what the darkness was. A portion of the radiance went to the [Scale of Judgement] though, upgrading it. Kieran was still confused about the Scale since he did not have the [Heart of Ruling] prerequisite.

Kieran then arrived at the true treasure vault of the God of Forest City, and was blinded by the glow of all the magical equipment inside. He then found a chest after picking up the [West Steel Saber] and the [West Steel Heavy Mail]. After picking the lock on the chest, he found another box inside of it. Kieran felt afraid when he saw the box, knowing that it meant the actual item was either very valuable, or very dangerous. Being very cautious, Kieran inspected the smaller box with [Tracking] and [Mystical Knowledge], but his gut instincts saying the box was dangerous never left him. Kieran decided to close the chest back up, but as he reached out, the smaller box started glowing, and he felt the sense of danger even stronger. Kieran then felt an overwhelming sense of suppression pushing down on his body. Kieran partially transformed, only turning his arms into the Devil’s magma arms, causing the overwhelming pressure to explode.

The small box broke open, releasing a radiance, and the chest was open just a crack, allowing the radiance to spill out. Kieran summoned the Sins; Greed, Envy, Lust, Wrath, and Gluttony immediately lost control of themselves from the temptation of the glowing radiance, and Greed, Envy, Lust, and Wrath quickly disintegrated from the radiance. Gluttony however, was very strong and charged at the chest. He licked the radiance, and savored the taste of it. Sloth was astonished that Gluttony was able to eat the radiance, but Sloth, Gluttony, and Pride were then attacked by arrows formed out of the radiance. Pride counterattacked, weakening the radiance just enough for the chest to fully shut, stopping the radiance. Kieran then locked the chest again. He decided to take the chest to inspect it in the safety of his lobby, but he realized that the chest was too heavy for him to pick up. Kieran considered putting his Golden Attribute Points into Strength, but he decided not to after realizing that there was no guarantee that would be enough to lift the chest. Kieran then turned around and left, causing Pride and Sloth to quietly praise his ability to resist the temptation of the chest. He left the Frost Wolf pup to guard the treasure though.

Kieran returned to the temple, where Ren was still being forced to play Tanya’s divination games. By now, Tanya had divined the rest of Ren’s life, which Ren was conflicted by. Tanya left when Kieran approached, and Kieran suggested that Ren fight against his fate if he doesn't like it. Kieran then told him that he had slain the God of Leaf City and the God of Many City. As Ren was in shock, Kieran told him that he had already sent Hayden to manage those two cities. Once Ren got over his shock, Kieran tasked him with being Tanya’s bodyguard. Kieran then left to attend the banquet, where a few meals were waiting for him. After eating three servings, the Fiend Exorcist Mou approached Kieran. Mou handed Kieran a parcel from Great Swamp, which only contained a single phone number.

Kieran went to the God’s bedchambers in the castle and called Artitelgar’s number. Artitelgar answered and started rambling in a way that reminded Kieran of Lawless, until he finally got to the point and asked if Kieran slew the Leaf and Many City’s Gods. Kieran confirmed it, and Artitelgar suggested they form a true alliance. Kieran agreed on the condition that the alliance be made public, and they arranged to meet up to sign a contract.

The party in the temple was still ongoing, and all the guests were mingling amongst each other while Kieran was in his bedchambers. Morden approached the monk from Rassho Temple, and after greeting him, Morden received a vision of a memory from his childhood, and how lonely his parents looked when he last visited them. Morden suddenly had a strong urge to abandon his current life and return to his hometown and his family, but he swallowed down his tears and continued his job of hosting the party after thanking the monk. The party was reaching its end, so he started escorting the guests who were leaving. When all the guests were gone, Morden got into his car and was immediately briefed of all of his duties by his secretary. Before going home, he asked his secretary to drive him to a store so he could purchase some gifts for his parents.

The monk reported to Kieran, and Kieran thanked him for testing Morden, and the monk thanked Kieran for helping Tanya. Kieran then changed the topic and asked the monk if there were any good blacksmiths and pharmacists in Forest City, but the monk explained that magical knowledge like that was largely only known by fiends, who aren’t willing to teach humans. He said that he and Jen knew basic blacksmithing and potion brewing, though. The monk explained that Rassho Temple used to be much stronger, but after a war they lost much of their allies. Kieran considered hiring a Smith Fiend and a Lady Med fiend, but the monk told him that all of those fiends would already be hired within other Cities. The monk said that he personally could only produce one potion in a year, but Jen had special talents that could allow her to produce two potions in a year. Kieran remembered how Jen could use a power similar to Dawn Force, and he wondered why he hadn’t seen her in this dungeon yet; the monk explained that she was in cultivation, and she wouldn’t finish for several weeks. Kieran then asked the monk to look into hiring the Smith Fiend and Lady Med fiend as he summoned Ren and Mou into the room, where the four of them started making plans. When they were done, Kieran left for Flame City.

Outside of Forest City, a group of people were again plotting to kill Kieran. Some were nervous, but then they revealed that they had the support of a Grand Fiend. However, they watched as Kieran approached the Grand Fiend, and crushed his skull with a kick. The rest of the fiends were burnt to death by a fireball.

Kairi and Kray were in their safehouse, chain smoking in silence. Eventually Kray got angry and demanded to know what they were going to do next; Kairi explained that he didn’t know what to do without Ethan Hunt, since all he knew how to do was follow orders. After throwing a tantrum, Kairi decided that he would make a plan to take out all the people who were trying to kill him and Kray. He said that those people were watching this safehouse, so they would need bait before they make their move. Kairi reminded Kray of Footer, the previous boss before Ethan Hunt, and Kray started making preparations to find Footer. Meanwhile, Kairi was making many phone calls; during these calls, he was told that Ethan Hunt was the Bird of Death, which he denied being true, though he secretly wished it was true.

Kieran was sitting in a small restaurant with Great Swamp eating breakfast. Great Swamp told Kieran that this restaurant was interesting, but didn’t say any more than that. Kieran ate his breakfast while waiting to see what made the restaurant interesting. After eating, Kieran surveyed the restaurant more closely, and realized that the other customers didn’t leave any tracks or traces. Only Kieran, Great Swamp, and the owner left tracks. Kieran started theorizing that the owner was a divine being also, but Great Swamp interrupted him and told him that it was the building itself that was special. After Great Swamp explained that he did not know why the restaurant was like this, Kieran realized that Great Swamp was treating this mystery very casually, instead of with vigilance like Kieran would.

Kieran suddenly got a feeling that something was wrong with Great Swamp, but no matter how much he inspected him, Great Swamp appeared to be exactly the same as Kieran remembered him. Kieran decided to just continue acting normally for now. He and Great Swamp left the restaurant after eating, and they walked to a nearby alleyway. They approached a rusted door, where Kieran could hear breathing from behind it. When the two of them were in front of the door, the person behind it opened it and greeted them. Great Swamp led Kieran inside, and Kieran maintained constant vigilance, since he did not know what kind of dangers were inside. They eventually reached the Earth Vein Node, which was Kieran’s first time seeing it.

Great Swamp said they would be going inside it, which shocked Kieran since he didn’t think it was an object with an inside. Great Swamp waved his hand, causing the stone gate with the dragon carving to open up; he explained that because of his bloodline, he was able to open the Earth Vein Node, which is the legacy that his father left him. They walked through the gate, and Kieran was astonished to see a massive city. They stood on a platform and looked down into the city; Great Swamp pointed out how massive the city wall was, then pointed at the castellan castle, where their goal was. As Great Swamp was speaking, the platform they were standing on crumbled, and the two of them fell to the ground far below.

Kieran cushioned his fall with the [Floating Ring], while Great Swamp landed hard. Great Swamp immediately told Kieran that someone snuck into this city, and that he needed to do some investigations. He asked Kieran to rendezvous with him at the castellan castle in an hour. Great Swamp then ran off. Kieran looked at the direction where Great Swamp ran off to, and he started slowly moving toward the city walls. As he moved, he gave orders to Sloth, who was stationed within Flame City.

Kairi and Kray were having an argument. Kray had given too much information to the people trying to kill them while he was looking for Footer. Kairi wanted to kill Kray, but he restrained himself and the two of them started packing in order to escape as quickly as possible. There was then a knock on their door, and Footer’s voice asked them if he could come in. Kairi immediately let Footer in, but he couldn’t figure out why he let him in so easily. Kairi then realized that Footer had a hypnotic power to convince people to do things, and Kairi realized that was why Kray spilled so much information. Footer then explained that he did not want to kill the two of them, since they all served the same master. Kairi again wanted to deny that Ethan Hunt was the Bird of Death, but then Sloth also walked in.

In the underground City, Pride was approaching the city walls. As he neared, soldiers made of wood and stones started flooding him, but he used his black flames and greatsword to slice them all down. Pride was stalling for Kieran to infiltrate the City. Once Kieran succeeded, Pride happily started slaughtering the rest of the soldiers.

Kieran used [Tracking] to follow Great Swamp; he quickly reached him, and saw that Great Swamp was also fighting the soldiers. However, Great Swamp was evenly matched with them, unlike Pride who was single handedly slaughtering them. Kieran was confused, since if someone had the powers to perfectly disguise themselves as Great Swamp, they should also have the strength to fight the soldiers. Great Swamp muttered to himself fearfully that his powers were fading. Kieran then followed a stone soldier that was walking in the opposite direction of the castellan castle.

At the same time, in another corner of the underground city, there was another Kieran and another Great Swamp standing side by side. Great Swamp’s bracelet started glowing, alerting him that there was a fight going on in the city. Great Swamp told Kieran that he would leave everything to him, but he reminded Kieran that he had to return here in an hour. Kieran left, and Great Swamp started walking toward a building behind him. As Great Swamp neared the building, it suddenly turned into a giant courtyard. Great Swamp turned around and hid in some shadows.

Soon, a hooded person appeared and excitedly looked at the courtyard. The hooded person walked a lap around the courtyard looking for an entrance, but after circling it, he realized there was no entrance. He circled it again, watching the courtyard closely, and he realized that the courtyard had gotten bigger during the second lap. He continued walking, and started counting his steps. After a while, the hooded figure heard a voice behind him, and he saw a person with the same outfit also circling the courtyard, and also counting their steps. The hooded figure pulled out a dagger and stabbed the identical person in the back. The hooded figure then felt a dagger being stabbed into his own back, and he turned around to see another person with the same hood holding the dagger. Behind that person was another person with the same hood, holding a dagger and preparing to plunge it into his back.

Kieran followed the stone soldier to a crossroads of two main streets. The crossroads was littered with the wood and stone remains of slaughtered soldiers. There was another Kieran standing in the middle of the crossroads, still kicking soldiers to death. The Kieran who followed the stone soldier hid in the shadows and watched. Kieran concluded that there was some being who created an imposter Great Swamp, which was the Great Swamp that the real Kieran entered the underground city with, and the real Great Swamp had already previously entered the underground city with an imposter Kieran. Kieran concluded that he and Great Swamp’s phone call was tapped, allowing this being to know their plans. Kieran quickly ran out of the shadows and kicked the imposter Kieran to death. He got the [Flame City Bangle Replica]. Kieran then used [Tracking] to follow the imposter Kieran’s steps to find the real Great Swamp.

Kieran eventually reached the courtyard, where he saw two identical hooded figures endlessly circling and counting their steps. Kieran saw Great Swamp’s tracks, and he followed them backwards, away from the courtyard into the shadows. But even after following the tracks, nothing happened. The [Flame City Bangle Replica] started buzzing and glowing. Kieran then saw a figure that looked identical to himself endlessly entering and exiting the courtyard. Every time the figure repeated the actions, they looked more tired, and Kieran could feel himself growing more and more fatigued. The courtyard grew bigger every time the actions were repeated. Kieran then felt a malicious gaze from behind him, and he turned to see another figure identical to himself standing behind him. Behind that figure was an endless procession of Kierans killing each other. Kieran walked away from the procession and toward the courtyard where the figure was still walking in and out. The figure that was standing behind Kieran followed him. Kieran reached out to grab the figure walking in and out, and the figure standing behind Kieran grabbed Kieran as well. Kieran then tossed the figure into the air, causing the figure behind Kieran to fling Kieran into the air as well. Kieran was flung over the courtyard wall, into the courtyard.

Finally inside of the courtyard, Kieran quickly hid himself and looked at his surroundings. In the courtyard was a garden with a lake, and a bridge going across the lake. It looked exactly like Great Swamp’s estate. Kieran waited for the next Kieran in the procession to be flung over the wall into the courtyard, and kicked them into the lake while they were still falling. The figure sank into the sticky swamp water. Kieran then carefully approached the bridge, examining it with [Tracking] and [Mystical Knowledge], but he did not see anything dangerous. When he stepped on the bridge, a very thick mist was summoned that not even Kieran could see through. Kieran used the [Guide] function of the [Flame City Bangle Replica], which pulled him across the bridge safely. When he stepped off the bridge on the other side, the mist faded away for him; there were two imposters on the bridge who were still blinded by the mist. Kieran threw a grenade at them, the exploding causing them to lose their balance and fall into the swampy lake that killed them instantly.

Kieran then approached a pai-loo, a gate, and the [Flame City Bangle Replica] started glowing as a cold energy started pouring out of the gate. The red glow of the bangle suppressed the cold energy for just a moment, and Kieran took advantage of it to run past the gate. When he ran through it, the energy exploded, freezing Kieran; he circulated his body with Dawn Force and Devil Force to expel the cold energy from his body, since his armour was incapable of protecting him from it. When the explosion of energy subsided, Kieran saw that the land surrounding him was frozen solid. Kieran looked back at the pai-loo and saw a figure with white hair and bloody crimson eyes, though the figure disappeared after letting out a scream.

At the same time, in Flame City, an elder also let out a scream of anger. There was a table in front of him with five wooden mannequins, four of which were destroyed. The elder turned to a person beside him and demanded to know what was going on, since Kieran and Great Swamp shouldn’t have been able to see through their plots. The person asked the elder to call back the last mannequin to gather intel, but before the elder could, the last mannequin was frozen solid and destroyed. The elder wanted to face the other person, but he realized that not only was the other person already gone, but the elder’s body was also frozen solid. He then saw the figure with white hair and crimson eyes, and tried begging for his life. The white figure ignored him and froze the entire building solid.

The person who had escaped from the building turned and saw it being taken over by the cold energy. He was angry, and tried figuring out why the white figure was there, but then he realized that the cold energy was much weaker than it should be. He then concluded that this white figure was just a clone.

Kieran used the [Guide] function again to help him up the long staircase; Kieran got a strong sense of danger with each step, so he was being exceedingly careful. When he reached the top, Kieran saw Great Swamp standing inside the palace gate. Kieran asked for an explanation, and Great Swamp simply said that he had a terrifyingly strong enemy. Kieran was not satisfied and asked Great Swamp about the [Slither Secret Pills], which would require a Lady Med fiend to craft; Kieran was confident that Perforation Sting was unable to craft all of those drugs, and he concluded that there was another God behind Perforation Sting. Great Swamp then swore to Kieran that he did not know of the imposters; he told Kieran that all this time he did not realize that his enemy had created Perforation Sting. Great Swamp then asked Kieran if he could buy him some time.

[Triggered special event: Mastermind behind the scene]

Great Swamp then made some vows before his enemy appeared;

[Acquired Great Swamp’s Brother Oath!]

[Acquired the favour of destiny within Flame City!] (Ch 1169)

A person with strong malicious intent was quickly approaching the courtyard. They broke through the courtyard walls, and Kieran noticed that they grew very slightly weaker after that. Great Swamp then explained that outsiders here will accumulate restraints every time they use a transcendence strength power, and the restraints have the potential to turn a God into a mortal. There is also a time limit, as any outsider who stays in the city for more than an hour will start to accumulate restraints as well.

Kieran turned to face the person, Ye Jing, who had finally broken through the pai-loo. With the [Great Swamp’s Brother Oath], Kieran was not considered an outsider; he started charging up a fireball, using buffs from the Fire Raven and [Fiery Sulphur]. Ye Jing defended against the fireballs with a black light, but Kieran could tell that he got weaker after using the light due to the restrictions. Kieran continued to attack Ye Jing with a barrage of fireballs, and the black light gradually grew weaker and weaker, until it started to shake under the force of the fire. Kieran summoned the Creature of Desire and used [Thousand Evil Eyes Strike], which continued to incrementally weaken the black light. Ye Jing used his black light to rip the Creature of Desire apart, but Kieran summoned it again.

Ye Jing revealed that he used to be the rival of Great Swamp’s father, but Ye Jing was disappointed in how cowardly and weak Great Swamp was compared to his father. Further, Ye Jing felt Kieran was provoking him; Ye Jing killed the Creature of Desire again before it could use [Thousand Evil Eyes Strike]. Kieran used [Priority Timing] to summon the Creature of Desire one more time. Ye Jing was starting to get mad at Kieran, so he decided to just attack Kieran head-on instead of weakening himself by continuously killing the Creature of Desire. Kieran watched as Ye Jing ran toward him with an extremely fast speed, but Kieran did not move from where he stood. Kieran continued to charge up a fireball, and when Ye Jing was right in front of him, [Mardos Web] descended and caught Ye Jing. It only took Ye Jing a second to break out of the webs, but that second was long enough for both the Creature of Desire and Kieran to finish charging their attacks. At the same time, the two attacks hit Ye Jing.

He protected himself with his black light, but Ye Jing again realized he had to kill the Creature of Desire before it could use [Thousand Evil Eyes Strike] again. He used his black light to again slice the Creature of Desire apart; as the Creature of Desire was being killed, Kieran summoned his White Wolf that attacked the black light, causing it to shatter. The White Wolf retreated, and Kieran threw more fireballs at Ye Jing, who was now exposed without the black light.

Ye Jing continued rushing at Kieran, and tried reaching out to grab Kieran’s throat. Kieran pulled out [Arrogant Word] and slashed down, but Ye Jing countered with the remaining black light he had. Kieran then, using one hand on [Arrogant Word] to fight against the black light, used his other hand to grab a gun and shoot Ye Jing in the face. Ye Jing protected himself, and Kieran quickly used [Seattle’s Right Hand], [Wilco’s Redemption], [Spectre’s Grip], and [Ring of the Serpent King] all at the same time. The two powerful ice attacks forced Ye Jing back, where [Spectre’s Grip] bround him. In the second that it took Ye Jing to break out of the restraints, the two-headed serpent appeared and attacked him. More fireballs were thrown at him.

Ye Jing, without his black light, was now able to feel the heat from the devil fire; he started being consumed by his anger, but before he could stop to think, the White Wolf again ambushed him and dealt a heavy blow on his remaining black light. The White Wolf retreated, and [Dandelion’s Pierce] attacked, managing to shatter the remaining black light even more. Another fireball was thrown, and Ye Jing decided for the first time to dodge it. Kieran then charged at him with [Arrogant Word], which was again deflected by the black light.

Ye Jing snapped a talisman, which allowed his remaining black light to split into two parts. One half grabbed [Arrogant Word], preventing Kieran from pulling it back, while the other half attacked Kieran directly. Kieran then grabbed the soft sword [Burwell’s Slaughter], and used [Arrow of Slaughter]. The black light had to stretch itself very thin to protect Ye Jin against the arrows, and it started trembling, but did not shatter. Kieran summoned two defensive barriers to protect himself against the attacking black light, but the attack broke through both barriers. [Devourer’s Shadow Mail] stopped the attack, cracking the black light more. The crack weakened the black light’s hold on [Arrogant Word], so Kieran used his full strength to free his sword.

When Ye Jing saw Kieran again try to slash down with [Arrogant Word], he was so consumed with rage that he did not notice Kieran preparing to attack with kicks. Kieran used a combo of [Hundred Violent Kicks] and [Bide], but he had many different buffs that elevated his kicks to transcendence strength. Kieran could feel the black light cracking under his kicks, but he suddenly got a strong sense of danger and retreated. As he pulled away from Ye Jing, he felt Ye Jing reach out to grab him, though Kieran dodged in time; Kieran felt Ye Jing’s aura grow significantly weaker after that grab, telling Kieran that it was an extremely powerful attack that could have killed him instantly.

Before Kieran could launch another attack, Ye Jing started retreating. As he taunted Kieran, [Mardos Web] silently stuck to him, and Kieran pulled on the web with all his strength, stopping Ye Jing’s retreat. Before Ye Jing could react, Kieran swung down with [Arrogant Word], but Ye Jing defended himself with a tiny sword formed out of the black light. Kieran tried throwing a fireball, but suddenly an extreme darkness shrouded both of them, extinguishing the devil fire.

On the surface, in Flame City, Ye Jing’s men could feel that Ye Jing had used that move called Night Vanisher and Dawn Slaughter. They wondered why Ye Jing was using those extremely powerful attacks, and they decided to finish their missions as quickly as possible so they could go and watch the fight. However, Sloth appeared, and forced all of the men to go to sleep. Sloth laughed to himself when he realized that Ye Jing was trying to fight Kieran during dawn, before leaving to finish the rest of the tasks Kieran gave him.

In the underground city, inside the complete darkness, Ye Jing mocked Kieran before summoning Dawn Slaughter, a weapon formed out of the light of dawn, though it had a cold energy. The Dawn Slaughter attacked Kieran, but Kieran formed three swords out of Dawn Force that defended him. The three dawn swords easily shattered Dawn Slaughter. Kieran then sliced Ye Jing in half with [Arrogant Word].

From Ye Jing’s body came a golden radiance that flooded into Kieran’s body, leveling up [Blade of the Daybreaker]. Kieran also got [Extreme Night], the black light that Ye Jing used for both offense and defense. Kieran was disappointed but unsurprised to see [Extreme Night] in a damaged state, and strived to get it repaired.

Great Swamp then came out of the palace, conflicted about how easily Kieran was able to kill Ye Jing. Great Swamp told Kieran that he could take Ye Jing’s titles of “Night Vanisher” and “Dawn Slaughter”, but Kieran rejected them and told Great Swamp that he preferred Blade of the Daybreaker or Burning Dawn. Kieran then told Great Swamp why he wanted to get stronger, which inspired Great Swamp to get stronger himself.

Kieran looked at Ye Jing’s body, which hadn’t disintegrated. Great Swamp explained that he was not a God, but he was much stronger than even the strongest Gods. Great Swamp then explained that there were different ranks of Gods; Great Swamp was almost a High God, and after that is Ortho-God. Gods were also stronger during the fiend-era as opposed to the current peaceful-era; Great Swamp said that Ye Jing was strong enough to fight Ortho-Gods during the fiend era. Kieran asked if there was something stronger than Ortho-God, and Great Swamp said there was a Star Rank, though he was born too late in the fiend era to have met one; Great Swamp said he knew his father was stronger than an Ortho-God, but he did not know what rank he was. Finally, Kieran asked why Ye Jing waited so long to attack Great Swamp, but Great Swamp told Kieran that he didn’t even know that Ye Jing was behind Perforation Sting until now; he honestly had no clue why Ye Jing waited.
