Chapter 25: The Contract

Old man Arkham stared at Kahn with a bewildered expression. He did not believe that Kahn was the actual culprit all along when they went to law enforcement hall.

He knew that Kahn had a great talent for swordsmanship but he was still far from being able to take out a dozen experienced adventurers by himself. And that too without even using a sword.

"May I ask why?" asked the Elven mage Solomon.

"How do you treat someone who picks up a fight with you for no reason and sets up an ambush to kill you with dozens of people?" Kahn replied in a laid-back manner.

"I see. Then aren't you worried that we will tell this to anyone?" asked Solomon.

"If you wanted to. You already would've done it during the investigation. But I'm sure you didn't support me and took this matter to law enforcements just to protect the Adventurer association's reputation. You want something in return, don't you?" responded Kahn.

He knew very well that a person of Solomon's position and authority wouldn't just interfere in a small matter between a newbie adventurer. He already sensed that there was a hidden motive behind the actions of the middle-aged mage.

"Quite smart for someone of your age." replied Solomon as he sat down on his throne-like chair.

"But first, show me how you managed to kill off so many people just by yourself." commended Solomon.

Kahn heaved a sigh as he spoke gently..

"Omega, come out!" Kahn said and suddenly a giant black Dire Wolf leaped out of his shadow and stood in the center of the room.

Arkham was caught off guard again.

"A contracted familiar?!" asked Solomon with surprised eyes.

"Yes. I bet you sensed him when we were in the main hall. That's how you figured that it was me who killed those people, right?" asked Kahn curiously.
