Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL

Lugh seemed to have lost weight and was not as tall and st.u.r.dy as before.

His fine muscles were like polished pebbles sticking tightly to his bones, and his explosive power was astonis.h.i.+ng.

Under the effects of fate and time runes, Lugh’s gaze was deep, as if there was a starry sky. It was as if he was a completely different person, and his temperament was completely different from before.

Before I set off, I still need to prepare some alibi evidence.

After Berg was killed, the King would definitely order a thorough investigation of every suspect in the city, and it was inevitable that he would be found guilty.

Dawn Inn provided a quiet room for meditation and cultivation. He could pretend to cultivate in the quiet room, as if he had never left Dawn Inn, no one would suspect him.

On the first floor, there was a restaurant next to the reception desk. Elegant music flowed slowly like a stream in the hall on the first floor.

There were already some people eating in the restaurant, chatting in low voices. Suddenly, they stopped eating and stared blankly at a figure walking down the stairs. A tall and handsome man dressed in the uniform of the Xi Zhao Empire slowly walked down the stairs.

The man’s facial features were three-dimensional and he was tall. He was like a statue in a temple. His eyes, in particular, seemed to contain a starry sky that was extremely deep. He had a faint smile on his face that was filled with charm.

At the front desk, the little girl had a shocked expression on her face. Her eyes were wide open and she could not believe what was happening before her eyes.

She recognized that this man was Lugh.

However, the Lugh from before was in ragged clothes. His body was dirty and his face was covered in dirt. He was so different from the handsome man in luxurious clothes. She did not expect him to be so handsome.

For a moment, Annie’s heart beat faster.

“Who is he? He is so handsome. His eyes are so mesmerizing.”

“I have never seen such a man. He is like the idol in the temple, but he is much more handsome than the idol.”

“Does anyone know his name? I want to know him.”

Seeing the handsome Lugh, the women who were eating in the restaurant were going crazy.

…

Lugh walked to the front desk and smiled at the girl at the front desk. “Give me a quiet room for cultivation,” he said.

Annie saw Lugh’s smile and her heart trembled. Her lips opened slightly and she was stunned.

“Hey, wake up. Are You Alright?”

Lugh waved his hand in front of Annie. What’s wrong with this little girl?

“Ah, I’m fine. Is it a cultivation chamber?”

Annie came back to her senses and was at a loss. “The cost of using the cultivation chamber is ten gold coins a day. Regardless of whether it is used for the full day or not, it will be counted as a day. There is sufficient food inside, so you don’t have to worry about being hungry.”

Lugh took out twenty gold coins and instructed, “I will be cultivating in the cultivation chamber for the next two days. If anyone comes looking for me, just say that I am not free.”

“Okay, young master. Young master, you are here for the rune school a.s.sessment of the Xizhao Empire, right?”

The young girl at the front desk handed Lugh a string of keys with a house number.

“Rune School a.s.sessment?”

“That’s right. During this period of time, many people have been meditating in the quiet room, hoping to make a breakthrough before heading to the Runic Academy’s a.s.sessment. Young Master, you can do your best.”

“Thank you.”

Lugh smiled and walked towards his cultivation quiet room.

This young girl had treated him as an examinee who was preparing to head to the Runic Academy to partic.i.p.ate in the a.s.sessment. But this was also pretty good. At least he had another reasonable motive for renting the quiet room.

…

In the meditation room.

He was not in a hurry to head to Celt’s mansion.

It was still afternoon, and it was easy to be exposed if he attacked during the day. Thus, Lugh patiently waited for night to arrive.

He sat cross-legged on a blanket and slowly recovered his physical and mental strength. Regardless of whether it was condensing or using runes, it was very taxing on a rune master’s physical and mental strength.

Just now, he had condensed eight runes, and there were two golden runes among them. Lugh had used up half of his physical strength.

Time pa.s.sed, and his stamina had been replenished.

Night had finally arrived. Before he set off, Lugh had cautiously set up an illusion in the meditation room. Even if someone accidentally entered the meditation room, they would only see Lugh cultivating seriously and would not notice his departure.

…

Celt’s mansion was not far from Dawn Inn. With the help of the speed rune, Lugh quickly found the place. Then, he used the invisibility rune to sneak inside.

At this moment, Celt was in his room picking out the wedding gifts for Prince Berg the next day. Maids came to Celt’s house with all kinds of boxes. In a short while, the whole house was filled with all kinds of gifts.

Haha, Celt really deserves to die.

Outside, Lugh, who was invisible, leaned against the window and saw the scene in the room. A strong killing intent emerged in his heart.

Most of the treasures in the room had been forcibly taken from the hands of civilians; who knew how many civilians had been exploited. Some civilians had been brutally killed by Celt’s soldiers if they were unwilling to hand over these treasures.

The people in Lugh’s family had been killed by Celt just like that. This kind of person deserved to die.

After the maids left, Yain walked to Celt’s room. He was busy picking out a suitable wedding gift for Berg from the pile of treasures. Suddenly, when he heard Lugh’s actions, he raised his head.

Other than him and the treasures scattered all over the place, there was nothing else in the room.

“Strange!” Celt muttered. He had a feeling that someone had walked into the room just now.

He was also a rune-master, but his level was very low. Usually, he indulged in wine and women and neglected his training. He had not been able to increase his strength.

However, a rune-master was a rune-master after all. He had a perception that surpa.s.sed that of an ordinary person.
