One-Eyed Monster

The journey to Bistal is still quite far, now Igor and his companions have just left the control range of Star Court Capital, which is next to Luona Capital, sharing the Star River with Luona.

Star Court not only shares the Star River with Luona but also shares the border. Opposite them is the Mantai Empire area. Unlike Luona, which needs to be wary of the Vero people crossing the Star River, Star Court only has to face the Mantai as its enemy.

A third of the entire Empire’s area is occupied by these two capitals. Within this one-third, Star Court occupies more than half. As the old saying goes, once you cross Star Court, the entire Empire is within sight.

Star Court can be said to be the shield of the entire Empire, guarding those inland cities, allowing the people inland to live without worries.

Thus, the road after leaving Star Court becomes wider and more luxurious.

But now, none of this can attract Igor and his companions.

Luona and Star Court rely on each other, and the lifestyles of the people in these two capitals are the same. These two border cities are often in trouble, with wars frequently happening. The people here are always vigilant, fearing that disaster might suddenly strike. Igor and Kadi felt no discomfort when they arrived at Star Court; they naturally blended in and left without feeling anything unusual about Star Court.

They circled around Star Court for over ten days, performing in various counties and gathering many destitute circus performers. These performers are pitiful, often having a passion for performing but unwilling to abandon their identity to become what Clown Quinn calls reborn. As a result, many circus groups expelled them, leaving them to rely on their skills to busk and beg on the streets...

Kruz naturally took them in and gradually expanded the size of the circus.

This process was arduous, but luckily with Kadi, the new leader of the circus generation, leading his followers, they brought back a considerable amount of gold coins. These coins mostly came from gambling in taverns, the process of which was bizarre. However, this bizarre process also gave these followers many new scars...

Strangely, these scars seemed to make the followers grow. Now their relationship with Kadi has become extremely peculiar. No one can understand what exactly Kadi did, but these followers are utterly devoted to him.

During these days, Lord Bern’s messages naturally came several times, starting with blame and later turning into confrontation. When the second Mail Bird arrived, Kadi and Igor directly told Lord Bern that his executor, Clown Quinn, had already gone to the Eternal Tranquility Realm.

This direct declaration of war was a unanimous decision by Kadi and Igor. They believed that after this, Lord Bern would surely send more people here to capture them, and they prepared for battle every day.

However, strangely, no one came for them... Only Lord Bern’s Mail Birds continued to arrive.

The information in the Mail Birds showed Lord Bern’s anger, but there was a lot of helplessness within this anger, as if the all-powerful Lord Bern had no temper with Igor and Kadi.

Over the past ten days or so, Lord Bern has sent numerous letters.

Some were to win people over with sweet talk, hoping Igor and the others would serve him, but Igor threw these letters aside.

Some letters were filled with unbearable anger and harsh words, causing the Mail Birds delivering them to crash into roadside trees along with these dirty words.

There were also some letters full of arrogance, using harsh words as threats, but Kadi did not fall for such tricks...

Several attempts to avoid replying left Lord Bern uneasy, so he dispatched a circus expert to scout.

As a result, the guy who had just stepped into the top five of the circus expert rankings was hammered by Igor and Kadi, leaving not even a shadow remaining...

Now, no one dared to approach Igor and Kadi’s Star Circus because the experts had been beaten severely. The top five ranked individuals initially saw three fall, and when a replacement was finally appointed, he was still hammered by these two youths!

Therefore, Igor and Kadi never had peace along this journey...

After experiencing so much, Igor and Kadi grew significantly. The circus organization was basically finished, and the disappearance of the Clown Executor was a blow to the entire circus. The god-like existence of the reborn actually failed, which shocked those worshipers.

Hence, they acted more cautiously, but with the Clown Circus leaderless, chaos soon erupted within the circus. After news spread that the Puppet Master ranked third in combat power and the Animal Trainer ranked fifth were also eliminated, the entire circus could no longer remain calm. They were anxious and flustered, some seeking revenge, others wanting to escape, in utter chaos.

However, Lord Bern, after all, is a person who has seen the world. By deploying a few Exchange Beasts, he managed to restructure what was originally a disorganized mess, showcasing a great ability.

Nevertheless, Lord Bern more eagerly hoped for the return of the Star Circus because this way, all his lost combat forces and executors could return.

Unfortunately, Igor and Kadi were unwilling to join his organization, and he couldn’t understand why someone would be at odds with money.

Thus, he sent out one Mail Bird after another in hopes of achieving his goal.

Yet Igor and Kadi’s response was always, "See you in Bistal."

For this reason, Lord Bern hurried the circus towards Bistal because he feared that no one would be there to protect him when the time came...

Bistal is inland, crossing Star Court and then passing through Xili City to reach.

Igor and the others are currently heading to Xili City, which is much smaller compared to Star Court.

Throughout the journey, Kruz constantly shared his experiences, allowing Igor and Kadi to quickly gain a deep understanding of Bistal.

The journey of exploration continues, with the map of the Kayne Empire unfolding beneath Igor’s feet.

Although Lord Bern’s Mail Birds continued coming and going these days, the entire world seemed to show an unusual calm...

Neither the Three Great Empires nor any hidden forces stirred up any significant waves, as if everyone was in a state of tranquility awaiting.

Awaiting the true arrival of the storm.
