Chapter 309 The Great War (19): The Final Act (3) - Lurion's Death And Kira's Trail

Shin asked the top-tier subordinates, such as the Grigard King, Frog King, Alligator King, and Blanca, including Deoras and many more, to stand back since the ceremony would soon start and he would receive the rewards. He also mentioned controlling their groups and preventing them from eating any of the bodies lying around and instead, helping the other elves to pick the bodies and keep them aside.

As for the dark elves and goblins, Shin asked them to pick up the dead bodies that belonged to his clan members and take them to a separate room and wait for him to return.

'I can use my inventory to store them, however, that would only surprise everyone here. Also, it is not wise to showcase more skills in front of the entire world.', Shin thought, reverting back to his normal form.

And just when he had finished giving instructions, he felt a weird presence.

He turned his head to the side only to look at the entrance of the arena.

Shin noticed a wolf entering the arena. The wolf was practically crawling.  Its lower half of the body wasn't present and his remaining body was slowly disintegrating. It was Lurion!

"Y-You bastard! Just what did you do to me!?" Lurion screamed at the top of his lungs looking at Shin with hatred.

Shin was completely confused.

'What do you mean what I did? Isn't this war? Also, you were the one to jump when I tried to attack Devis, now you come and blame me!?', Shin wanted to finish Lurion as he stared at him.

Lurion was crawling, trying to find Devis but it seemed that he was out of luck.

"Master Devis…"

"Where are y-", he couldn't even complete his sentence.

As those last words came out of his mouth, his entire body disintegrated.

The black smoke that was emitting from his body, completely engulfed him as he vanished.

Black dust which seemed just like ashes was left behind. Needless to say, the ground around Lurion, within the range of 2 meters, had turned black.

'What the heck!?'

'Just what happened…?', Shin was utterly surprised as Lurion vanished.

*Ding*

[The individual Lurion has been killed.]

The system notified Shin of Lurion's death which made him realize that Lurion was indeed crying in desperation and was searching for Devis.

Sadly, Devis was in the forest.

*Boom*

A large sound had been heard when Devis slammed into the ground after flying for a few seconds, however, Lurion failed to hear.

Just what had happened!?

Was it the doing of some mysterious being?

'Who was the one that killed him?', Shin asked.

And just when Shin was asking a bunch of questions to himself, the system gave him another surprise.

[Trails of the individual Kira have been found.]

"…"

'Nani!?', Shin stared at the notification on the screen that just popped up.

Of course, there were his clan members surrounding him so he assumed an emotionless expression.

'Find him.', Shin asked the system to find Kira with the same emotionless expression.

*Ding*

[Command Accepted]

[Finding Kira…]

[…]

The system scanned the entire arena and even broadened its range of search.

*Ding*

[Unable to find any individual with the name Kira.]

"…"

'Yea… you are utterly useless.', Shin said to himself.

He did find the trails of Kira but had yet to find him.

Therefore, unless he found him, he couldn't complete this grand mission.

[ Mission ]

-> Reach the Arena for Clan Wars safely [ completed ]

-> Rank among the top 10 Wolf Clans [ completed ]

-> Find Siara and Kira [ incomplete ]

-> Avenge Kira and Siara [ incomplete ]

-> Aide in Aella's evolution [ incomplete ]

These were the tasks that he was required to complete.

Out of the five tasks, only 2 were completed.

The first one was completed way back and the second one was completed just recently.

Actually, the wolf brothers that arrived had many clans merged within them just for the sake of the clan wars.

Clearly, Shin made it apparent that they stood above all these clans, and now, thanks to that, the second task was completed as well.

However, in the case of finding Siara and Kira, only half was done. Kira was yet to be found.

Shin was annoyed as the system did detect a trail of his, meaning, he was present here. Unfortunately, even after searching the entire stadium, the system failed to find him.

The thing that surprised Shin was the fourth task.

'I haven't avenged them yet?', Shin was confused.

Definitely, the wolf brothers were killed one by one so the avenging should have been done.

'What's going o-', he paused asking himself as he noticed Aaron in a half-death state.

'Ah…'

'He is yet to be killed.'

Shin then took a look at the final task which stated about Aella's evolution.

'Hmm…'

'Yea, her experience points are stockpiled as well. I have to help her evolve soon. But I wonder, why can't she evolve on her own…?', Shin questioned himself, not expecting any exact answer.

Regardless, he took a look at the rewards for one last time so that he would get a good idea of what he would get when he finished the tasks.

'Hell ya! I need to complete the tasks as soon as possible!', and just when he thought that, Reosan announced it loudly.

"The winner is…"

"LOU SHIN CLAN!"

"…"
