Chapter 63: Maybe should have shown a little mercy.

The shopkeeper only looked at him and didn't say anything.

"Here, take this." David once again threw a pouch filled with a few spirit stones.

'Yeah, take more spirit stones and die the next day so I can absorb your memories,' David evilly thought in his head, but he didn't let his thoughts show on his face.

David patiently looked at the stall owner to start speaking.

The stall owner looked at David deeply and slowly said, "Ahem! Let me rephrase my earlier words… earlier I might have exaggerated a little.

"Nobody knew since when, but there have been instances of pet animals and monsters dying early in the morning just after sunrise."

After saying these words, he stopped and didn't say anything more.

The stall owner looked at David with expectations.

Seeing his expression, David was more than happy to fulfill his wishes.

He gave him some more spirit stones.

The stall owner hurriedly tucked them in his bosom and once again started to speak.

"One more thing has been noticed about these animals."

"They are old, aged with one foot in the coffin, so their death doesn't attract much attention."

David nodded at his words and nudged him to continue speaking.

However, the stall owner just shrugged his shoulders and said, "That's all I know."

"There is one more thing you might be interested in." Seeing how easily David was throwing around spirit stones, the stall owner wasn't going to easily let him go.

After accepting another bunch of spirit stones, this time he seriously spoke.

"All the dimension gates present in the Empire have been opened to the general public."

"But I would advise you to be careful as most of the dimension gates are extremely dangerous."

David couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at his words.

What does he mean by dimension gates?

Are dimension gates something like candies that could be easily found?

However, David wasn't aware of the fact that as one moves deeper into the Human Domain, the chances of finding dimensions increased greatly.

These dimension gates were extremely dangerous, filled with terrifying dimensional storms that can rip your body to shreds in a matter of seconds.

You might not even find anything inside them.

The deeper you find them, the more dangerous they are. Compared with them, the dimension gates situated at the fringes of the Human Domain are relatively safe and complete, but even more worthless.

The gaze with which he looked at the stall owner changed. At this point, David wished that the owner would die and reincarnate.

The stall owner could feel the change in David's gaze and hurriedly moved away.

He turned his gaze away from the stall owner and started to walk again while pondering.

'It seems to be only affecting animals, and there doesn't seem to be any effect on humans,' David thought while moving.

Maybe he was overreacting and it might be nothing to worry about at all.

And he was also deeply interested in these extremely dangerous dimension gates; he could smell an opportunity to make a killing.

While walking, David had unknowingly arrived in a desolate area away from the crowded market.

Suddenly, David stopped for a moment and then continued to move again. He felt strange fluctuations in the air, southwest of him, behind the wall.

Along with his monstrous control over mana combined with Ancient Web of Mindfulness, David became extremely sensitive to sudden changes in mana fluctuations fifty meters around him.

Someone was definitely following him.

David's eyes flashed with cold light.

Suddenly, thunder flashed around him and covered his body in an instant like full-body armor.

Fifty meters were nothing for him, and the wall wasn't even that far away from him.

David was like a ghost that suddenly appeared in front of the wall.

Without saying anything, he lightly punched the wall in front of him.

His hand covered with dark purple thunder moved at an insane speed, and before his punch could even make contact with it, the wall caved inwards and collapsed.

Boom! Followed by terrifying explosions that sent gravel and dust flying everywhere.

At this time, a girl with a strange mark on her face suddenly appeared behind David's back like a ghost.

He was able to tell at a glance the girl was at the peak of the Foundation Building Realm, but that didn't mean he was afraid of her.

However, David was even faster than her. He sidestepped and threw a punch directly at her face, filled with all the strength that he could muster.

Seeing David's action, the girl's eyes widened, and her body started to flash…

But it was too late for the girl. David's punch was like a rocket that squarely hit her head.

Whatever the girl was trying to do couldn't be completed in time, and she was blasted by David's punch.

Her body was like a cannonball that flew for dozens of meters before falling to the ground.

With a single step, David appeared next to her and was about to ask who she was.

However, the next moment, a strange expression appeared on his face.

The masked girl was dead meat.

She had stopped breathing completely and couldn't be more dead than this.

Her skull had caved in as if it had been struck by a hammer.

Maybe he should have shown a little mercy.

Of course, he was just kidding. If given the chance again, he would still blast her skull apart without a doubt. Showing mercy to your enemy was just stupid.

In the next moment, David frowned. He could feel a couple of people coming in his direction.

He quickly took the storage ring from her hands and disappeared with a flash of lightning.

At this time, a man wearing the uniform of the Rising Sun Empire appeared on the scene, followed by even more people, all of them dressed in the same uniform.

"This mask…" The man seemed to have recognized the mask worn by the girl.

"Requiem Shadow of the Last Skull." The man recognized her. As a soldier, he knew about all the wanted criminals in the Empire.

One of them was Requiem Shadow of the Last Skull Assassination Organization.
