Chapter 845 Chapter 845: An Unexpected Guest

?"He is..."

As Karyk was halfway to the border wall, he noticed a figure step within the city through the broken portion of the wall. The man wasn't even trying to hide his aura, which made him appear unafraid.

However, the most surprising part was that it wasn't an undead. Instead, it was a living person, and one that Karyk recognised all too well.

"How dare you block my path?" The man exclaimed, his voice loud enough to awaken the entire city.

The guards who had tried to stop him were killed in an instant, their bodies exploding under the pressure. Even many, who were in the nearby houses, felt their ears bleed as they woke from their sleep.

"You had so many paths leading to life, yet you had to choose death," Karyk muttered, shaking his head.

The man was the same General who had escaped from the puppet master's control thanks to Karyk. However, it still took him a long time to find his way out of the Land of Chaos as he wasn't sent back by the Queen of the Celestial Dynasty.

It wasn't wrong to say that he was impressive to be able to break through her space and escape, although it took a long time.

Karyk landed before the man, his face covered behind a mask. Fortunately, the man hadn't seen him back in the Land of Chaos, so it was impossible for him to find anything suspicious.

"You... Lead me to your City Lord without any delays!" The General told Karyk, his tone arrogant and filled with dignity. It was clear that he looked down on everyone.

Even when he mentioned the City Lord, it was clear that he didn't pay any respect to that title.

Karyk glanced at the broken city wall and the remains of the Guards that were just trying to ask the identity of this person. They were just doing their duty.

"There's no need to worry. A guest from the Capital is here. Please go back to your sleep." Karyk spoke, his voice also just as loud.

The General reached the higher floors, accompanied by Karyk. He kept up the page with Karyk, only stopping when they reached the end of the hallway.

"The City Lord is inside." He told the man as he opened the door.

"To think that he still hasn't come out to meet me." The General confidently stepped inside the room without a second flight.

Karyk also entered the room after the General before closing the door behind him.

The General looked at the person who was standing near the window. The man's back was facing him so he couldn't see his face. However, seeing even the back of that person, he had a bad feeling.

This physique was the same as that of the person who had caught him. It wasn't just the physique but also the cloak that he was wearing felt similar.

He still didn't know if it was just the fear within his heart that was making him imagine things.

He strengthened his back before asking, "Are you the City Lord?"

"That would be the person behind you." The person responded. "As for me..."

He slowly turned around, revealing those deep red eyes once again.

The General was stunned at the sight. He couldn't believe that the person had managed to catch up to him, and so fast at that.

"Looks like your City Lord is already dead." The General clenched his fist, talking to Karyk. "You should leave this place. This isn't a place for kids to stay."

He still didn't understand the meaning of the Puppet Master's words when he mentioned the City Lord was behind him.

"Weren't you here to meet the City Lord? Why are you telling him to leave now?" An amused voice came from behind him.

Hearing the words, the General's expressions darkened. He turned around, looking at Karyk who was standing before the exit.
