It is the closest stretch to the coast in Udinillad, and the warm sea breeze that blows from the ocean to Udinillad often passes through it first.

The terrain is open, lush with vegetation and colorful wildflowers, and against the backdrop of blue skies and clear seas. Many seabirds nest on the cliffs not far from here, where they breed and chirp.

Kosmerd fell to his knees in a bush of flowers, his hands on the ground, his head buried so low that it was almost touching the ground. He remained motionless, unusually quiet, without making any sound. Tears, like beads of broken threads, continued to flow out of his eyes, falling on the ground covered with flowers and plants below him, and continued to make a "tick-tock" sound.

A foot in front of him were two simple tombs side by side, each with a tombstone bearing the names of Abt and Kes. The vigorous life of the flowers and trees, when it touched the location of the two tombs, seemed to be resisted by a bleak and solemn atmosphere, and it seemed out of place.

After a long time, he looked at the male villager standing next to him with tears in his eyes, and asked the villager who was also looking sad at this time, "When did they suffer misfortune? Who poisoned them?"

The villager shook his head, sighed, and replied sadly, "They died in a fire, I told you just now, but we don't know why their house was burned. More than nine months ago, in the middle of the night, when we were awakened from our sleep by the sound of screams and found their house on fire, we immediately launched a rescue on them, but the wind was so strong that night that we could not extinguish the fire before it burned their house to the ground. And after we put out the fire, we found two charred bodies in the charred ruins. ”

The villager choked up, and after a pause, he said with tears in his eyes: "These two corpses are so charred that they are so charred that they are almost gone. We can't be sure that they are Abt and Keith, and we hope they aren't, but who else will there be? who else will appear in the rubble of their burned-out house? We don't know if the disaster was caused by some accident or by arson. The fire even alarmed the lord of the nearby Fort of Bruga, Wiramboye, who had sent someone to inspect the ruins, but found nothing suspicious, so they did not think it necessary to pursue the fire. And the last thing we villagers can do for the two of them is to bury their bodies here. ”

After listening to the villager's story, Kersmund couldn't help but cry bitterly for a while before he asked, "Did Abt and Keth have anything unusual happen to them before this fire?"

The villager tilted his head sideways and said thoughtfully, "Something unusual......? Oh yes, during the daytime before the fire that night, a lady came to their house to look for them. The lady, dressed plainly and plainly, claimed to be the daughter of a craftsman in Zhiwacheze, and had come to Abt and Keth to order more of their cabbage from them. Although the lady was dressed very ordinarily, she was very beautiful. At the time, several of us men were scrambling to show her the way to Abt and Kes......"

"A woman, the craftsman's daughter?" said Kersmed, who was startled, and immediately asked, "do you remember what that woman looked like?"

Then, based on his own recollections, the villager began to describe the woman's appearance to Kersmoed. From his description, Minded discovered that the villager described the woman's appearance as very similar to Sephia's. Kersmod couldn't help but wonder in his heart - could it be that Sephia was really not dead, could she be the kind of person whose heart was on the right side as Brother Soraton said? Otherwise, I had already stabbed her left chest where the heart was, how could she not die?

In a matter of seconds, many thoughts crossed his mind, and then he asked, "What did she say to the two of them?"

The villager shook his head and replied, "I don't know about that, they talked softly in the house, and we couldn't hear it clearly outside the house, and then Abt and Keth kept silent about it. All I know is that the lady was visibly angry when she left their house, and it must have been Abt and Keth who didn't get what she wanted. However, such a delicate and delicate lady, she shouldn't have anything to do with this fire......"

Ksmund pondered for a moment before whispering to the villager, "Thank you for telling me this, I want to be here alone for a while now." ”

"Okay, then I'll go back first. I hadn't seen you before, and I didn't know who you were, but I could see how much affection you had for Abt and Kath. The dead are gone, but the living should live well. Abt and Keth, who are now in heaven, don't want to see you grieve excessively. In short, you have to mourn and change!" the villager said, and walked away. After he was gone, Korsmund knelt in front of the two graves and wept uncontrollably again......

After his emotions stabilized, he silently deduced in his heart: "That woman, most likely, is Sephia, she is not dead, and after she recovers from her injuries, she must continue to hunt me down and take revenge on me before she finds Abt and Keth's house." I...... After all, I still got involved with Abt and Keith, and let the good and innocent people die because of me...... I'm damned!"

Thinking of this, Marksman, who was in a moment of great grief and indignation, immediately drew his knife in his hand, and impulsively wanted to kill himself, but then he stopped moving, and held the hilt fiercely, and his hand and the knife trembled violently, and his tears fell on his hand and the scimitar.

"I can't die like this!I must avenge Abt and Keth first, and then I will die to apologize!Sephia, unite the night, I, Xmerd, will never let you go!" he raised his voice and roared, "I will definitely make you pay the price, blood debt!" With that, Germerd slammed the knife into the ground at his side, and at the same time could not cry silently.

It was a declaration of war from Korsmer - a declaration of war on the entire Eternal Night Union, including Sephia. The hatred was enough to drive Kersmoud crazy, but he tried his best to suppress the strong impulses in his heart and did not lose his mind. The composure and fortitude that he had developed over the years was fully demonstrated in this great blow, and became his last pillar in the midst of this incomparable grief, holding him up and keeping him from falling.

He soon realized in his almost uncontrollable grief that the perpetrators of Abt and Keth might have been Serfia or a few minions of the Eternal Night Alliance, but the culprit was the Eternal Night Alliance. Therefore, if he wants to avenge Abt and Keth, he must target the entire Eternal Night Union. And to defeat the Eternal Night Alliance, this is not something that can be achieved overnight, because this enemy is too powerful, even stronger than any country on the continent of Calradia, and it is also hidden in the darkness, like a demon that wanders in the world, dormant for a long time, with countless minions, often killing people invisibly.

Despite the terrible enemy and the fact that he was alone at the moment, he resolutely and courageously declared war on this powerful enemy, the Eternal Night Union, and was determined to fight to the end until he defeated this enemy and cleared this dark and evil existence. Only in this way can innocent and kind people like Abt and Keth truly escape its clutches, and he can truly get rid of the threat from them, so that he will not be involved in the victimization of more innocent people.

Now, he had one more extremely important promise in his life, a promise to Abt and Kath, a promise to be an avenger, a very painful and strong promise. It was something he had to do to make the Eternal Night United, including Sephia, pay for his blood debts, but before, he had to restrain the hatred and grief in his heart, maintain the calm he deserved, and constantly look for the safest way to achieve his goal, because he didn't have many chances, maybe only once.

The road to revenge is long, and he must be cautious in every step, otherwise he may die halfway through. He had to endure and wait for the time to come. If he wants to improve his own strength, he may also need to find some reliable helpers to assemble a team that can compete with the Eternal Night......

Germund stayed in front of the two graves until nightfall, when he stood up silently. The night engulfed everything around Sensed like a black tide, and of course he too.

By this time, two and a half days had passed, and two and a half days before he had promised Jamila that he would go to her in five days, and now that there were less than three days left for him to hurry, it was time for him to set out for Kulau. So, he endured his grief and reluctance, did not waste time here, and prepared to leave here and return to Kulau first.

He untied the horse's reins from a nearby tree trunk, then led the horse and walked out. After walking only a short distance, he saw a fire in the night, and he immediately looked over with alarm, and immediately saw a figure moving in the distance with a torch or other lighting tool. He stared intently at the figure as he continued to take a few steps forward, and the figure seemed to be approaching him.

Soon, the distance between him and the figure was much shorter, and he looked closely, and by the light of the fire, he recognized that the figure was the male villager who had shown him the way during the day, and that the one he was holding in his right hand was a torch. The male villager quickly saw and recognized Korsmode, and immediately raised his left hand and waved at him, apparently greeting him.

After a little speculation, Kersmerd understood why this kind male villager was here—he must have seen that it was dark and did not see Korsmerd return to the village, so he came to him out of concern to see how he was doing.

"Little brother, you should be hungry too, go to my house for dinner, I've prepared your dinner!" the male villager shouted at Kelmer from afar.

Listening to the villager's shout, Kosmerd's heart was moved spontaneously, and he was about to say yes, but suddenly noticed that in the night not far behind the male villager, a strange figure suddenly moved. Eye-catching, "Be careful, there's someone behind!" at the villager, and as he spoke, he immediately rushed towards the male villager's location.

Hearing Kersmer's shout, the male villager immediately looked back, only to see a dark shadow approaching behind him at an incredible speed he couldn't believe, and before anyone arrived, the knife had arrived—a long sharp knife had already pierced from behind him the moment he turned around, and the next moment, the tip of the knife stained with blood had pierced through the villager's chest.

The poor villager didn't even have time to scream, and after glancing at the tip of the knife that had pierced his chest with terrified eyes, he immediately lost consciousness and died on the spot. The torch in his hand fell to the ground, and the night dew was heavy, and when the torch fell to the ground, it was immediately extinguished with a "snort".

By the time Kersmer had rushed over, the shadow had pulled his long knife out of the villager's back and thrust it with a sharp push, pushing the villager towards Kersmer. With his knife in hand, Kersmund slashed at the shadow, forcing it to take a step back, while holding the corpse of the male villager with his left hand.

Germund gently laid the corpse of the male villager on the ground, then quickly placed two trembling fingers into the villager's mid-men.

After confirming that the male villager was dead, Kersmod asked the black figure in a low voice as if he was powerless, "Why did you kill an innocent person like him?"

The black figure seemed to be shocked by the momentum that suddenly erupted from Kersmer, and was stunned for a moment before he sneered and said, "Hmph! In my eyes, there is no innocent or guilty person in this world, only dead and undead. Boy, though you've changed a lot, I still recognize you! And you, do you still recognize me? Do you want me to stick a dagger in your left shoulder to help you remember?"

Hearing him say this, Kersmod couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and quickly looked the black figure up and down by the light of the stars and moon. Immediately, he discovered that the man was covered in a black hood and robe—the same outfit as the treacherous assassins Minder had ever seen. And on the man's chest, there is also a silver pattern, which is unusually eye-catching against the contrast of the black robe and the surrounding night.

Kosmerd's attention was quickly drawn to the silver pattern that made him feel familiar.
