On the other hand, Charles cast [Knowledge Absorber] skill on the grey-haired man but was disappointed.
'It's a secret knowledge about the location of Rank-4 wind spell model...' He shook his head and cast [Burning Thoughts] again.
Then, he directly took out the new long sword from his space ring and slashed it towards his neck.
But before his sword could reach his neck, the old man's head and body exploded all of a sudden.
After that, the reddish flesh, blood, bones, and brain matters directly fell from the sky and splashed on the tree leaves and the ground.
'He self-detonated?'
Charles clicked his tongue and turned his gaze towards the stupefied black-haired man.
An unknown fear rose from the depths of the black-haired man's heart.
The battle between Charles and the grey-haired old man took only three seconds!
Before the black-haired man could snap out from the daze, Charles had already killed the grey-haired man.
Daisy's expression also turned unsightly as she witnessed such a battle.
Not only that, but she also sensed some invisible power that scanned her body earlier and got anxious inside.
'Rank-4 Mystic!' That was the only thought that appeared in both of their minds.
They knew that the grey-haired old man was a peak-level Rank-3 Expert.
But he couldn't even fight stall this old man for three seconds!
"Who are you?" While asking, Daisy hurriedly took out a trinket from her space ring and started to chant in a hurried tone.
The black-haired man also took out some similar trinket and started to chant.
He didn't even dare to ask questions and entirely focused his attention on escaping.
A smirk appeared on Charles's face.
"Go and tell your superiors to make a welcoming ceremony for Rhea Boneflare." He suddenly paused for a moment and added with a sigh.
"But on second thought, I will tell them myself."
At that moment, Daisy and the black-haired man already finished their short chant and activated the trinket.

But nothing happened at all!
'Space is locked!' Panicking expressions appeared on their faces.
Upon noticing the grave situation, the black-haired man hurriedly moved his right hand towards his pocket and was about to take something.
But suddenly, he forgot how to move his fingers!
Before he could wake up from the strange confusion, a sharp pain appeared from his neck.
A moment later, he felt that his head began to spin.
In a blink, his head was cleaved entirely off from his body.
[Target Eliminated! 3,640 Exp obtained!]
Nodding his head, Charles pushed the headless body and turned her attention towards Daisy.
"I surrender, My Lord." Witnessing such a scene, she got terrified inside and raised her hands in a hurry.
At that moment, the birds also started to shrink back to their original size and soon descended to the forest.
Charles stared at her coldly for a second and asked.
"Why should I need a weakling like you?"
Her pretty face turned red because of the anger and humiliation.
But she swallowed the humiliation and spoke in a hurried tone.
"I know about the secret of Ancient Tower."
'Ancient Tower? What is it?' Charles stared at her for a moment and soon nodded.
As Daisy was about to tell little more about the Ancient Tower, she suddenly forgot about it!
'He stole my memory.' That thought crossed her mind.
"Well, I can't simply believe your words, can I?" Charles let out a chuckle and added.
"Follow me."
Saying so, he flapped his reddish-black wings and then zeroed his gaze towards the woods.

No, he focused his gaze on a particular place where the grey-haired man's exploded body parts fell.
'All that left now is to kill the crippled man.' He muttered inwardly.
At that moment, the blood droplets, bones, brain matters, and fleshes were nowhere to be seen.
'But I can sense a powerful consciousness inside the bush.' Charles curled his lips upward, lapped his reddish-black wings, and landed near the green bush.
Daisy also landed beside him using her crimson wings and looked at the bush in confusion.
No, she soon saw a mutated rat hiding near a grey plant stem, holding a space ring in its forelimbs.
Currently, the grey-haired old man, who took over a mutated rat's body, got frightened inside.
Well, if not for Charles's Rank-4 wisdom power and his [Cryptic Analysis] skill, even he wouldn't have found something amiss about this old man's death!
'As expected of someone who lived more than 400 years, he is indeed a worthy opponent. His Soul Possession skill is not bad at all.' He conjured a ball of flame and spoke in a cold tone.
"Mr. Sneaky Rat, please come out. Or else, I will not hesitate to kill you."
"W-Wait. I-I will come now." A stuttering old man's voice came out from the bush, and soon the mutated rat crawled out from it.
Upon seeing such a strange scene, Daisy's mind went blank for a moment.
On the other hand, Charles silently used his [Hand of Mystery] skill and picked up the bloody mutated rat.
"How long can you possess this rat?" He asked.
"No more than 24 hours." A weak voice came out from the rat's mouth.
On the other hand, Charles nodded his head and then crushed the rat into a meat paste!
It couldn't even have any time to utter a cry!
"He died just like that." Charles let out an evil laugh and glanced at the notification.
[Target Eliminated! 5,350 Exp rewarded!]
"You killed..." Daisy was about to correct him but soon swallowed her words.
Meanwhile, Charles walked towards the nearby tree, leaned his back against the tree trunk, and asked.
"What is this Ancient Tower? Is it a Magic Tower?" His eyes shone in curiosity.

"It's the legacy of the First King, My Lord." A short, humble reply came out of Daisy's mouth.
"You mean the First King Ledger Boneflare?" Charles narrowed his eyes.
"Yes, My Lord. No one knew what this Tower is, but this has some connection with the Boneflare Family and the four legendary spirits. There is a mythical tale passing down from generation to generation saying that whoever becomes the rightful Ruler of the Iron Kingdom will get the opportunity to obtain this Legacy. But till this day, none of the previous rulers succeeded in obtaining this Legacy." Daisy explained calmly.
"None succeeded? Then, why are you mentioning this now?" An irritated expression appeared on Charles's face.
Daisy's face flustered as she saw his expression, but soon she regained her composure and spoke.
"But there is another talk going around in the Nobles' Circle, My Lord." She suddenly paused for a moment and then spoke in a suppressing voice.
"Nine months ago, the high priests of the four Temples received a prophecy from the legendary spirits. Let me tell you the prophetic lines and then you can decide for yourself." She took a deep breath and then spoke.
"Born in the Iron, but will rise in the Moon.
She has three hearts, but only two hands.
When she returns, her arrival will shake the home.
Chaos will descend, so do the opportunities.
She will rise, to become a true Monarch,
Whenever she takes a step, citizens would kneel.
Not out of respect, but out of hunger and fear of death.
She will extend her hand, to save the kingdom from its doom.
Tell her to beware, beware of a Divine.
That one will stick to her, to steal her life.
Save her, she will save you.
Let her rest for a while, along with her hearts.
When the hearts grow, she will lose one.
But if Fate allows, the lost heart will find me.
And, I will give the Legacy to it.
