Hans admonished his friend for being so pathetic .

Do you think an Outsider is silly enough to drink beer in a public tavern like this?!

It isnt bad to be vigilant Hey, where are you going?

Im going to give that stupid foreigner a real taste of our town .

Hans shook off his friends hand and asked the owner for two glasses of dark beer .

It was the first foreigner to visit in a long time . He seemed like a wanderer but he appeared to be interested in some of the conversations in the tavern .

Hey, dude . Can I join you?

It was a polite question, but it didnt require an answer . Hans sat down without waiting for such an answer . He then pushed away the beer that the hooded man was drinking and replaced it with his dark beer .

Its on me . Get rid of that pale, smelly beer . This is the good stuff .

At that moment, the quiet mans mouth opened .

Go .

What?

Take your friend and leave within 30 seconds .

Hans was embarrassed . He had done this foreigner a favor and in return he received a deportation order as compensation .

You are a rude man . Where are you from? From the North? Oh, I see . Youre from

Too late .

*Bang*

Suddenly, Hans looked over his shoulder at the source of the noise .

There were two people striding through the wide open door .

An insidious voice echoed in the tavern .

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to my show!

The man who had spoken was rather tall and wore a nice suit . But unusually, he had a funny Pierrot mask on his face .

However, in contrast to the ridiculous mask, the people in the bar had goosebumps on their arms for some reason . There was a leash dangling from his hand and it was connected to the neck of the middle-aged man who came in together with him .

I, Pierrot, will be running this show . Nice to meet you .

The gorgeous clothes of the middle-aged man were dusty and torn . His obviously once muscular body was now wrecked from torture, like a tattered piece of cloth .

His dignified appearance was gone, now replaced with uncontrollable trembling and a look stricken with terror .

Hans recognized the face of the middle-aged man and inadvertently revealed his shock .

And let me introduce my assistant! Great Kingdom of Steel, King of Divide! Your Majesty Colora Ahs F Waldersch!

Nobody responded . No one dared to meddle in the unfolding situation .

Silence . Everyone was frozen in horror and could say nothing .

The sound of flies buzzing in the air seemed louder than thunder .

With a gesture that he was playing, Pierrot Mask un-summoned the bondage that tied the kings hands and took off the eye patch that covered his eyes .

The eyes of the King of Divide were finally revealed . They were filled with tears .

Hey! What are you doing now

Someone woke up but he didnt have enough time to finish his sentence . Something sparkled in Pierrot Masks hand before blowing past the neck of the unruly onlooker .

Blood gathered in a line in the air .

The wire was too thin to easily identify with the human eye .

No one saw it as it was flying .

It was an overwhelming action .

Hiccup !

Nobody dared to scream . It was because Pierrot Mask looked around, non-verbally communicating a threat that the same would happen to anyone else that made a sound .

Okay, everyone, take up a weapon . Anything that can hurt others is fine . Knife, chair, ah, a good choice . But dont even think about moving .

*Rustle*

People were busy finding a suitable weapon .

In short order, everyone present was holding something that could be used as a weapon . Even Hans had something . He spilled the beer out of the mug and broke the glass making a sharp piece that he could use like a knife .

Hans glanced at the man wearing the hood, but he was still sitting . The Pierrot Mask acted as if he was not there and continued directing his show .

Well, maybe you all know each other here due to being from the same village . But tragically, only one person can leave here alive . My assistant here is going to participate in this competition as well .

The King of Divide grabbed the dagger and walked out . There was no pride in his eyes at all . Instead, they were filled with the desire to live .

Everyone was eyeing each other .

Starting is always hard . Good . The first person to kill will be the exception . I will send them out first .

Hans tightened his grip on the glass shard .

How can this man be subdued? If he pretended to fight moderately and then suddenly poked a non-fatal place with his shard, he wouldnt be able to stop the quick attack from the wire .

Hanss friend approached Hans with a bottle opener in hand .

Friends, calm down .

You heard him too .

Hans put down his weapon first and once more eagerly said to his friend .

Put down the weapon

I want to live, Hans .

He rushed towards Hans . Blood splattered and screams broke out everywhere . Pierrot Mask exploded into a fit of laughter while watching the tavern suddenly turn into the site of a battle royale .

***

The bar was quiet . No one was alive . It was so terrible to see .

This is a bad habit of yours .

You think so?

The Pierrot Mask sat next to the now un-hooded Crow Mask .

I wondered if you were planning to stop me or not .

Crow Mask answered .

Im not going to get caught up in your pace .

With his answer, Pierrot Mask opened his eyes for a brief moment before laughing in satisfaction .

You sure have changed .

Is that a complaint?

No, I like it . Really . It is clear that you are no different from us .

Crow Mask no longer denied what he said .

Was it because it was too much of a bother to refute it, or did he finally acknowledge it in his heart?

He switched topic without responding to Pierrot Mask .

Get to the point .

I failed to kill all of the kings who attended the conference . But I do have some profit from the attempt . The capital of the Prillecha Kingdom has lost its function and is badly affected economically . I also succeeded in catching one of the kings of the Western Kingdom Union .

He pointed at a dead body .

The King of Divide, Colora Ahs F Waldersch .

He struggled with a dagger to survive . He slaughtered people and did his best to take their lives .

Eventually it was all futile .

In the midst of so many mishaps his face is perfectly preserved .

You cant imagine how easily things were though, thanks to him moving separately from the rest .

King Divide separated from the kings of the Western Kingdom Union . That was the biggest reason for him becoming a target .

He was overconfident in his power .

Pierrot Mask prodded his body with his toe and smiled .

It could be fun to do things with it .

Crow Mask didnt like the man in front of him .

This mans behavior was always dirty and disgusting .

So, I heard Dadenewt was resurrected

It was destroyed .

Pierrot Mask tilted his head .

What? How was it killed? It should have destroyed at least one kingdom .

There was a powerful wizard .

Zod?

No, a more dangerous wizard .

Are you sure that the kid in the article killed the demon? The kid who cant even arrange Fourth-Circle magic . Least to say Seventh-Circle magic?

Pierrot Mask had the same level of contempt that Crow Mask had upon first meeting Desir .

His magic ability has already surpassed Zod . And at a young age he is good at fighting too . Hes not an easy man to be trifled with . He also used a spell that I couldnt understand .

With a single magic, he killed Dadenewt that even Zod had a hard time with . The power he used was above the Seventh-Circle .

They would never understand how to arrange magic at such a level . But what was clear was that he was the enemy of Crow Mask

So you dealt with him directly . What was your impression?

Pierrot Mask seemed to be very interested in hearing this information .

Overall, its clear that he is below me . But in the use of spells, there are few people in the world that can achieve as much as him . The absence of higher-tiered spells that I initially thought was a major weakness ended up being a triviality to him .

Crow Mask continued .

He is the highest risk factor . More so than Zod . He will be a big stumbling block in future plans . I hope we get rid of him quickly .

Im very impressed . Stronger than Zod .

Do not think he will be easy .

Dont worry about it .

Pierrot Mask drank the beer in front of him .

Were going to move even more destructively to imprint fear of us on everyone . It will be incomparable to what we have done so far . And at the same time

The gaze of Pierrot Mask turned back towards the King of Divide .

We are going to dig deeper and more secretly into the heart of the enemy to destroy them from the inside .
