However, the hostility of these people seems to have not diminished at all. Regardless, Kain thought his diation was reasonable enough.
This made Kain frown, quickly reassessing the situation.
Images quickly flashed through Kain's mind, allowing him to quickly summarize the information.
Finally, Kain noticed a few points he had missed.
First, although they were covered quite well by leather armor on the outside, and there was also a cloak covering it, but from the protrusions of the armor, Kain could see that the armor of these people had quite a similar texture.
And most importantly, their movents are all quite similar.
Unlike the puppets controlled by Magus, all puppets controlled by a single person are naturally the sa. These people are even more like they were trained the sa.
Each person's deanor is different, but the standard fighting moves such as sword stance, foot placent, stance when guarding against enemies, etc… are all the sa. Obviously, they have been trained in the sa environnt for a long ti.
This is further reinforced by their good coordination.
If it was a normal Adventurer team or rcenary team, it wouldn't be like that.
They might work well together, but each person's style will be different. After all, such teams are ford to compensate for each other's shortcomings, so the mbers will be quite different.
But Kain did not see that here.
At the sa ti, he also considered the fact that these people appeared on the outskirts of the first floor of a small-sized Dungeon.
They surrounded the Salamander, but did not harm it, clearly their goal was not to kill the monster. This was further reinforced by the fact that they remained hostile towards Kain even after he had given up the monster's body.
Putting all of this together, Kain concluded…
This group of people did not co to hunt monsters, they ca here to serve soone, definitely soone of noble status, and the Salamander Kain had just killed was what they wanted to offer to their master.
It's a long story, but everything that just happened was only a split second in Kain's mind. Just as the group was about to enter the dangerous area, Kain raised both hands to show that he had no ill intentions, and at the sa ti, his voice rang out in a mocking tone.
"Isn't it just a Salamander? It's your fault for not doing your job well and not serving your master properly. What's the use of getting mad at ?"
The warriors were all stunned, then beca extrely cautious, not daring to take another step forward.
They didn't understand, who was this mysterious person in front of them that knew they were serving the "master"?
Obviously the two sides have never t before.
"Alright, back off. You're not afraid of losing your honor even though you're so humiliated?"
It was a girl's voice, very young, although not mature as the vibe from the majesty was still very clear.
From within the bushes, a girl walked out.
She had a rather petite figure even for a teenager, her silky golden hair reached down to her hips, her face still had sothing very innocent like a child, only her eyes…
Her pupils were actually white, causing Kain to mistake her for being blind.
"So it's you…"
Because this girl did not hide her appearance, Kain knew who she was just by looking.
Sword Princess, Cecilia.
Studying together at Kanzax Academy, being first years together, and of course extrely popular, in a positive sense.
Cecilia is not only a top talent, she also cos from a prestigious noble family so she has countless admirers. It is not difficult to know news about her.
"I didn't expect to et soone like you here, Sword Princess."
"Sword Princess? What a cliché nickna."
Cecilia curled her lips in disdain, while the other warriors obediently retreated.
Suddenly, she said.
"On the contrary, you are also famous."
"From a useless person that everyone laughed at to a weird genius who learned three types of magic in one day, a student of the research departnt but was able to defeat a decent mber of the combat departnt in a close combat match. To be honest, I'm quite interested in you."
"But when we t... it turned out you were just like that."
Cecilia's voice was tinged with regret.
"What do you an?"
Kain frowned, montarily not understanding what the petite girl before him was trying to say.
"You can understand, aren't you guys good at this kind of thing?"
"It seems your dissatisfaction is not only aid at , who else?"
"Just a brat, clearly from a sword family but his mind is full of evil sches."
"You two are really so similar that it makes hate you."
Are they that similar?
Kain wasn't sure, but for so reason he was quite interested in the person Cecilia ntioned.
However, Kain did not forget his goal.
"What about this Salamander's body? Do you need to pay for it?"
Noticing Kain's unusual tone, Cecilia sneered, her voice containing a vague murderous intent.
"Keep your tricks Kain, no need to provoke ."
"Just a monster corpse."
Suddenly, Cecilia drew the sword at her waist with an unimaginable speed.
The sword that Cecilia pulled out had a rather special shape. Unlike other common hand-held swords that had two blades and a straight body, Sword Princess's sword only had one blade, and the body was quite thin and warped.
And then, she swung her sword.
With a perfect slash through the air, the Salamander's body was cut off as if by an invisible blade. The monster's sturdy body was neatly split in two.
Kain recognized it as a mid-class magic skill, [Air Slash].
This girl can actually combine swordsmanship and magic so smoothly…
Kain felt an extre sense of danger, a drop of sweat running down his forehead.
Contrary to her appearance, this is an extrely dangerous person.
"I hope you do well in the tournant, Kain."
With a comnt that was unclear whether it was a blessing or a taunt, Cecilia left with the warriors, leaving Kain beside the monster's bisected corpse with a complicated expression.
