Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yarin’s POV:

Halfway through the ride, there was a relatively narrow street in front of them. Although the Silver Moon Pack had already widened it, it was still not as wide as the magnificent roads in the city center due to the heavy traffic.

To prevent accidents, the staff divided the tourists in advance and led them to the tributary at the fork in advance.

Correspondingly, the convoy would also have to split up. The Tearing Oriole we were in would have to merge into the middle road. This meant that although there were fewer tourists, fewer staff and guards would be around. This was because they had to ensure the safety of the three routes without increasing the flow pressure. For this reason, they had to follow the tourists and split up.

I could see that the police force surrounding the float had decreased. Although I had arranged for some personnel to be stationed here in advance, a vague sense of danger lingered in my heart.

As the number of tourists decreased, the crowd was no longer as dense as before, and it was no longer easy to hide.

Only now did I realize that the suspicious man had been following our group of floats, and Lily was not among the crowd. I didn’t know if I hadn’t found her or if she had walked into another road.

I pretended as if nothing had happened and interacted with the crowd. I kept observing the man’s actions from the corner of my eye. Realizing that he had nowhere to hide, he no longer deliberately hid. He swaggered into the crowd of tourists and even followed the children to pick up the flowers and candy from the float.

Was he a tourist?

It was not impossible, but it was very unlikely. If he had only come to participate in the festival, he would not have had to react so much to the guards’ vigilance in the beginning.

The street was not very long, about 130 meters. We soon reached the middle section.

The situation was now relatively dangerous. The streets were crowded, and the guards at the end of the street could not provide immediate support. Therefore, if they wanted to launch an attack, this was the best opportunity.

The guards were also aware of this. They began to tighten the encirclement in an attempt to arrest the suspicious man.

However, the criminal also realized this was a good opportunity for him! Out of the corner of my eye, I saw him reaching into his pocket as if he was going to take something out. It was a glass bottle containing a liquid with a faint silver light flowing in it, filled with an ominous black gas.

I didn’t know what it was, but it was definitely not good. The man cracked a nasty smile and was about to throw the bottle of unknown liquid at the float!

I almost couldn’t suppress my surprise and subconsciously wanted to call the guards to arrest him. The surrounding guards had already noticed the man’s movements and rushed toward him when he reached his hand out. However, the man’s movements were too fast, and the bottle was about to fall out of his hand.

“Stop!”

At the critical moment, I heard Heller exclaim hurriedly. Before I turned around to check his situation, I saw a shocking scene in the crowd, The man immediately stopped moving like a video where the pause button was suddenly pressed. He was still in the throwing position, but the unknown liquid was still in his hand.

In the next second, the guards swarmed forward and caught the man with ill intentions. They confiscated the weapon that had yet to be used.

The crowd was in a small disturbance because of this action. They were like frightened wild deer, watching the situation with wide-open eyes. Fortunately, the guards quickly dealt with this and declared the suspicious man a ‘drunkard’. The bottle of unknown liquid naturally became a low-quality wine.

Soon, people forgot about this and continued throwing themselves into the festival’s joy. The narrow street was finally completed without any danger.

On the way, I observed Heller. He was dizzy, weak, and pale.

It was a necessary price. Every time Heller used his power, he would suffer a great loss, which was one of the reasons why our parents forbade him to use his power freely.

“How do you feel?” With the cover of the other servants, I quickly took the candy and put it into Heller’s mouth, “Replenish your physical strength first. After we finish this street, we will go back and invite the werewolf grandmaster and the doctor to check on you.”

“I’m fine, I just used too much strength. Eating a few candies is enough to recover.” The moment Heller heard that we would end the ride halfway, he shook his head at once. “Who knows when we will attend such an activity next time? I don’t want to miss this opportunity.”

“But you need to be checked right away. Aunt Dorothy said that using your ability may cause indelible damage to your mind and body.”

“Note, it’s ‘indelible injuries’. It sounds very serious, but do you see any signs of injury all over my body? I’m just feeling a little tired, man. Don’t worry.”

I knew how much Heller cherished this chance of parading. Therefore, I couldn’t bear to deprive him of his pleasure.

Well, I might be reprimanded for this. However, Heller was my brother..
