Undying Warlord

Chapter 263 Difference

Jared looked at Dilan with anger. His muscles were itching to move and to beat up the young man, who didn’t look like he turned 22 years yet.

However, Jared knew that it was impossible for him to make a move against Dilan. This was a fact. He didn’t do anything to Dilan, even after the young man calmed down.

“I don’t seem to be welcomed here,” Dilan said all of a sudden, his eyes staring straight into Jared’s. After he retracted his killing intent, everyone around him was able to move, but contrary to Dilan’s expectations, nobody dared to approach them.

‘Too afraid…weakling.’ Somehow, Dilan was a little bit disappointed. The Soldiers were not even trying to fight against him. He was a monster in their eyes; someone, who killed their comrades without a second of hesitation just because he had a twisted sense of justice.

‘Felia’s report should have been pretty detailed. Looks like they know that I will kill them the moment they attack me.’ Due to the resurfacing thought about his sisters that he was trying hard to shove back, Dilan’s mood was everything but good.

He knew that they were not on the same continent and that it would take quite a while for him to reach them. It was only obvious that he couldn’t get to them today, tomorrow, or in the next few weeks even if we wanted to.

“I will take care of the Blood Legion, and I hope we will never see each other again. Just protect your ‘wonderful’ and ‘perfectly-defendable’ military base against the evil Ascenders, who will come and visit you in the future.” Dilan continued to speak, and it looked like he was not yet done.

Yet, even before Dilan could continue, Mayor Clerens took a step forward.

“Wait a moment,” He said at first, just to swallow his saliva when he noticed how bad Dilan’s mood was right now and added as an afterthought, “…please.”

His voice was not loud, but the senses of Tier-1 Ascenders were much stronger than Tierless Ascenders, let alone ordinary Survivors.

Thus, many could hear what Mayor Clerens said, and they couldn’t help but be baffled.

“Did he say please? I must have misheard…” A young female Ascender asked in confusion, looking at Mayor Clerens with wide eyes, doubting her ears.

“He did say please…” A young man next to the young female Ascender reaffirmed, looking no less shocked.

Meanwhile, Hunter Jared looked at Sheriff Jennie, not sure what to say. He was still enraged, but their third partner was not someone who was known for acting reckless, let alone like a fool.

Only his fighting style was somewhat questionable. However, that could be ignored for the time being.

“What is on his mind? I don’t get him…don’t you think that he is acting a bit weird?” Hunter Jared asked in a muffled voice.

“Yeah, I guess he wants to make some sort of business, but I’m not sure…you read Felia’s report, didn’t you? Was there something unique mentioned?” Sheriff Jennie enquired. He was not as dense as Hunter Jared.

She could tell what Mayor Clerens wanted to do, and it must have a good reason. After all, Mayor Clerens was not someone who would accept the death of his Soldiers at the hands of a stranger that easily.

He would never try to please someone either. Thus, there had to be something that Mayor Clerens wanted from him.

“Your subordinates will take a while to reach us, won’t they? How about you come with us inside? It will be uncomfortable outside, and as long as I instruct them, everyone will welcome you inside the base.” Mayor Clerens stated with confidence, inwardly adding ‘…whether they like it or not.’

Sheriff Jennie and Hunter Jared turned their heads back to Mayor Clerens, who stood right in front of Dilan, blocking their view of the young man.

‘Just what is he planning?’ Hunter Jared wondered while trying to suppress his anger and calm down.

“No thanks, I don’t need anyone to force others to accept me.” Dilan bluntly replied, ignoring Mayor Clerens invitation heartlessly before he added,

“I will stay a few hundred meters southwest from your base, and I will leave once I finish what I came for.”

Dilan’s sky blue eyes were still cold. He was annoyed and still enraged, which he wanted to showcase clearly.

“Does that mean, you are not even interested in the object the members of the Blood Legion used to lure the tide of monsters over? And that you have not even a tiny bit of curiosity about why the Blood Legion attacked us and the other bases?” Mayor Clerens suddenly asked with a crafty smile.

This smile was creepy, even for Sheriff Jennie and Hunter Jared, who was well aware of what Clerens was talking about.

However, they felt that their partner was making a mistake.

“What the hell are you doing? That is our se-…” Sheriff Jennie exclaimed, while Hunter Jared followed suit and yelled at the same time,

“You son of a bitch! Did you intend to betray us from the begi–..”

Neither of them was able to finish speaking because Mayor Clerens shot them a deathly glare with the eyes of a predator, bloodlust oozing out of him.

“Shut it!” He hissed, quieting down the Hunter and the Sheriff.

‘What the hell is going on?’ They thought in shock and felt as if they were tongue-tied and their bodies had been paralyzed.

They couldn’t control their bodies anymore, and all of this was just because Mayor Clerens ordered them to stay quiet.

‘Oh?’ Dilan’s interest was attracted when he noticed several things.

Not only the reaction of both Hunter Jared and Sheriff Jennie was interesting, but also the fact that Mayor Clerens didn’t use an ability or a trace of his mana to make them listen to him like obedient slaves.

It was as if he could control others with his words alone.

And by looking intently at Mayor Clerens, Dilan noticed something that caused his eyes to widen slightly.

‘Weren’t his eyes just red for a moment?’ He nearly blurted out, barely holding back his surprise.

‘Could he be? No…that shouldn’t be the case. I must have seen something wrong.’ Dilan reassured himself.

-n?o?ve,L However, despite thinking that he saw something that didn’t exist, Dilan was unable to ignore anything he had seen or heard in the last few seconds. ‘Maybe I am not mistaken? This could be interesting…’

“In that case, I would like to enter the Blue Star camp for today. It looks like you have a lot to tell.”

Dilan spoke in a much calmer voice than before and his eyes turned into those of interest, not coldness. His curiosity won over his other emotions, and Dilan followed Mayor Clerens, whose demeanor had changed a bit.

He looked more confident now, as if he was the leader of the entire Blue star camp, and not sharing his title as the leader with others.

‘Seems like Felia left out quite a few important pieces of information when she spoke about Mayor Clerens…’ Dilan thought, his eyes shining brightly.

‘This will get interesting!’

With that in mind, Dilan entered the military base. He ignored the gazes on him and focused solely on Mayor Clerens.

Both of them were extremely calm, and only when Dilan saw someone familiar did a faint smile emerge on his face.

However, the Ascender he looked at frowned the moment she saw him.

“Dilan?! What the hell are you doing here, and…wait…Mayor Clerens?! What?…How?…When?…” It was Felia, who saw how Dilan walked inside the military base, right next to Mayor Clerens.

She had been tending to the injured Survivors and Ascenders inside the base. Her task was to tend to everyone and to protect the military base if something were to happen.

At first, a terrifying fear spread through her the moment she saw Dilan, after all, he was not supposed to be here.

But Dilan was also not supposed to walk calmly next to Mayor Clerens, who valued his Soldiers more than anything.

‘He would never allow his Soldiers to be killed, not for them attempting to **** someone…or would he? Is Dilan different? But how?’
