In the evening Arcturus slipped away alone to the outside of the capital. He might be able to take Leona and Edward along, but there are some things that can only be done alone.
‘There are two places that have a high probability of Mad Dog being.’
Arcturus intends to examine one of the closest. It was in a sewer drain that directly flowed into the ocean.
Unlike the Knight kingdom whose capital is at the center. The Wizard Kingdom had its capital right near the coast. It is not surprising that the capital has a lot of seafood variations.
Putting that aside, Mad Dog should have a hideout in that dump.
Arcturus arrived quickly, he activated the ability of his robe and entered the aqueduct. Meeting Mad Dog will only cause problems, especially when his hiding place is known.
That person has a trust problem with others.
‘If I think about it again, the main protagonist has a completely different problem.’
Their resemblance was only an extremely powerful force and a face that did not disappoint. But their back stories are different.
Alda Carinea, the main protagonist raised by a dragon. But at one time the dragon disappeared and made Alda step into the world for the first time.
The other main protagonist who was in the Tengu Empire, was probably the one whose life was most comfortable. However this one is the protagonist who yearns to see the world outside of his world.
The last one is Mad Dog. The saddest main protagonist who came from the bottom. Maybe he's the only one who understands how rotten humans are as social creatures.
Must fight to escape the herd and take care of her ailing mother. Of course this bastard's life isn't easy at all.
‘I don't know anything about the last protagonist. But from the novel's explanation, the situation may not be like Mad Dog.’
Although it sucks because he doesn't have any useful information about the last main protagonist. But it is useless to think about it constantly because there is no way to distinguish which is the main protagonist and which is not.
In this world, strong people were not rare at all.
Arcturus continued to step inside while remaining alert. He hoped something he didn't want didn't happen. The regression this time was in fact very different from the life he had lived.
Ksk!
The sound of something rubbing against him, Arcturus saw a small movement in front of him. Seeing that made him hold his breath and snuggle into the wall.
He carefully relied on his murderous strength to step in without making a sound at all. Added to this the ability of his robe helped Arcturus disappear his smell and presence.
This is the perfect combination to kill in silence and silence.
But Arcturus stopped moving and breathed as he saw the shadow coming towards him.
‘Warrior? Impossible they come here.’
The sewer is not a place they will notice. Arcturus could not believe that the soldiers were visiting this place. Soon he heard them talk.
“He's good at escaping. I didn't expect it would take years to trace him all the way here.”
“Yes, but it's a smell I don't know. Although there is a scent of the couple is vague.”
Arcturus began to frown as slowly the two silhouetted figures were exposed. The feeling becomes worse when you see the dog's ears are black.
“Maybe this is the smell of their child. They fled with their son and it has been several years since then. That little boy must be an adult.”
Cold sweat poured down Arcturus' body as he saw the appearance of the two half-dog human figures.
‘Sial, what is Golden Retriever doing here?!’
There is no doubt about their origins. There is only one and a half humans with the embodiment of dogs.
‘Devil Dog God has crossed the continent!’
There are several types of them, but Arcturus does not expect to meet the Golden Retriever, the best tracker of the Demonic Dog.
The two walked past Arcturus leisurely. Until the moment they stood right in front of Arcturus, one of the dogs stopped.
“Do you feel someone watching us?”
The heart of Arcturus beats faster than ever before. Despite holding his breath and being helped by the power of his robe, fooling the Golden Retriever was extremely difficult.
Arcturus immediately closed his eyes and made no attempt to do anything that included watching. He even covered his ears.
Fighting with a Demon Dog now was a suicide move. Arcturus was very weak despite having two Ancient Determination with him.
“I think it's just my feeling, but apparently you feel it too, huh? But this is strange, there is no smell or the presence of others here.”
The Golden Retriever instinct is very strong. Even if his robe was an artifact, Arcturus remained an ordinary human. She's not like some miserable woman the world doesn't recognize.
The Golden Retriever must have sensed something like his presence despite being faint.
“Magic .. impossible. There seems to be a lot of strange things that we do not know in this continent.”
The two dogs apparently began to draw their own conclusions.
“If there really is anyone here, he must be very adept at hiding. Unsniffled by us is an amazing achievement.”
The dogs did not lie. Generally it would be very difficult to fool a Golden Retriever, not to mention these two people were slightly different. The tattoo on their right hand is pretty strong evidence.
The two dogs watched his surroundings once more before leaving quickly. Arcturus took a sigh of relief while waiting for a few minutes to make sure the bastard was gone completely.
Soon Arcturus slumped against the wall and sat down. He was sweating so profusely as the previous situation was extremely stressful for him.
“Sial, what's wrong with me?!”
Arcturus was quite surprised by himself. For some reason, he lost his strength and became limp.
“I'm so scared like this? It shouldn't be like this.”
Arcturus pulled his hair slightly in frustration. He knew he was a coward, but Arcturus should still be able to bravely put up a fight.
But this time he did not dare to act at all, even losing all his strength.
“I ... have I experienced trauma?”
Given his previous life, Arcturus did not have many bad experiences. He didn't want to tell her at all, it was a terrible event.
Not only the Demon Dog, but several other figures were also involved in the persecution he was subjected to. It was deeply imprinted in his mind and soul until this very moment.
“Sial .. I have to deal with it.”
If the conditions continue like this then Arcturus will never be able to overcome the Demon God Dog in the future.
“Relax .. The incident will never happen again. I won't let it repeat.”
The darkest history of his previous life is indeed the greatest weakness of Arcturus.
