Burglar System: Stealing Ancient Dragon God Bloodline from the Very Start

Chapter 21: The Person Who Came Out of the Shadow. The Lyre Logo

Catherine gazed at Allen unbelievably. The subordinate that she valued most nodded with a serious look on his face.

It took her some time to calm down from what she heard. She even forgot to control the horse and left it running freely.

"Don't tell anyone about this first," Catherine suddenly said, giving her orders, "We are not in charge of the matter of the mages. Go and inform the people in the wilderness to quickly go back to the fort. We will talk about this when we are back."

She did not tell Allen that she had a suspicion on someone. If that young man was the one who killed the Vengeful Wraith's leader, then the traces of magic should have been left behind by him. Then it would be reasonable that he dared to look into the eyes of the monstrous shadow and able to stand firm under such powerful pressure as a mage.

Catherine's curiosity towards William had risen drastically.

..

George brought William and the others to the military camp and found that there was no one around. There was not a single person there.

"Where… did everyone go?"Martin's heart trembled as he voiced out his guess. "Could it be that the huge monstrous shadow had captured them?"

George was just about to tell him not to scare the students. Then he saw a cloud of black fog suddenly appear from Martin's shadow.

"Be careful!"

George shouted. The spiritual energy on him flashed, and the Ice Field Snow Wolf appeared beside him, baring its fangs at Martin's shadow.

Martin was shocked. He turned around and saw the black fog emerging from his shadow and transforming into a human form.

"Ah!"

He screamed and swung his fist at the Black Fog. The spiritual energy on his hand flickered. He was so afraid that he implied his full strength. He was at the peak of Supernal Rank and could even beat up a bear if he used his spiritual energy to perform a full-strength attack.

However, his fist was caught at once when it landed in the Black Fog. Martin's facial expression changed at once.

"Ice Field Snow Wolf! Go!" George shouted and dashed towards Martin's shadow with the Ice Field Snow Wolf from two different directions.

"Howl!" The Ice Field Snow Wolf howled and dashed towards the black fog to bite it.

George kicked high from the other side, wanting to kick off that thing's head.

Bang!

The black fog in human form raised its leg and kicked the Ice Field Snow Wolf's abdomen, sending it flying.

"Awoo." The Ice Field Snow Wolf howled weakly and laid on the ground, unable to get up.

George was shocked, and then he felt an enormous force coming from his calf. He looked down and saw that the black fog had transformed into the appearance of an old man, wearing a chef's outfit. He held Martin's fist with one hand and held onto George's calves with the other hand.

An Earth Rank!

George and Martin were shocked at the same time.

"Let go of my teacher!" Sam stood where he was and shouted.

William and Jones, who were quietly approaching the old man at fast speed cursed Sam in their hearts when they heard him shout.

"Wait!" Shirley suddenly shouted, "He is from the military camp!"

Her words made William and Jones slow down, and they looked at the old man with doubt.

"His uniform is embroidered with Earl Vienna's logo." Shirley pointed at the old man's clothes and said calmly, "The lyre."

William was stunned and looked at the chest of the old man. On it was an embroidery of a "U" shaped musical instrument with a few strings in the middle.

The lyre was also known as the harp. Legend said that Earl Vienna had learned the lyre for a long time, so he used the lyre as a symbol after he was conferred with the title Earl. All the subordinates of Earl Vienna would have this symbol embroidered on them in Fort Vienna.

Except for the Hope Society. Although the Hope Society in Fort Vienna had to obey the orders of Earl Vienna, the Hope Society was still a direct organization of the Human Alliance. There was only one symbol in the entire Hope Society of the Human Alliance, the bauhinia flower.

When Shirley reminded George and Martin, they noticed the logo embroidered on the chest of the old man, who wore a chef's uniform.

However, what shocked both of them was that a chef in the military camp was at the Earth Rank. When did the Earth Rank become so easy to obtain?

The old man let go of George and Martin and took two steps back. He smiled amiably and said, "Some of the people in the military camp went to the fort,. Some went to the wilderness. I was cooking when I notice someone coming. So, I came out of the shadow in a hurry. Did I scare you?"

At this time, Sam ran up. His acne-covered face was very near to the old man.

"Old sir, was that your Endowed Supernatural Ability just now? It's amazing! What is the name of your Endowed Supernatural Ability?"

Sam asked excitedly. Martin was about to stop him, but he was too late.

The smile on the old man's face disappeared, and he said, "It's very impolite to ask about other's Endowed Supernatural Ability. I'll throw you into the wilderness to feed the scorpions if you do it again."

Sam felt a chill in him. His eyes were filled with terror as he took a few steps back. He could feel that the old man was not joking. He would do what he said.

Martin quickly went forward and protected his student behind him. He said to the old man, "Thank you for your advice. It is my fault for not teaching my students well."

William, who watched everything, recalled the scene where the old man came out of the shadow. Mr. Martin's shadow first distorted, and then black fog rose. The black fog began to condense into a human shape when it reached a specific density.

The old man said that he was cooking in the kitchen just now. It could be considered as teleportation from the kitchen to here. The skill was amazing and practical, but he didn't know if there were any restrictions, such as distance or target requirements.

William was tempted. He wanted to steal this ability, but he could only think about it. The old man was Earth Rank, and he hadn't figured out how to steal other human's Endowed Supernatural Ability yet.

His mind gradually drifted away. He came back to his senses when Mr. George had already finished communicating with the chef and called out for him to tag along.

Riding on the horse, William followed Mr. George and continued their journey in the direction of the fort.

"Hey." William called out to Shirley softly and asked, "Don't we have to return the horse?"

Shirley rolled her eyes at William and said, "Didn't we say that we would return it in the fort? There is no one to take care of the horse, and that old man's temper fickle. He became hostile suddenly."

William could feel that Shirley was still a little angry. He guessed that it might be because he did not agree to bring her to the wilderness in the future.

That was not a big deal. It was not a big deal to agree to it. Moreover, William was curious about the Endowed Supernatural Ability Shirley owned too. Besides, even George and Martin did not immediately recognize the lyre logo just now. William was even more curious about her because she knew it at a glance.

That girl was something.

"Hey, shall we form a team to fight monsters in the wilderness in the future?"
