Isaac looked down and saw at least a hundred people on the flat ground below, banging drums with thunderous cheers.
Footsteps approached from outside, and the room door opened.
Willard, who had been in black the previous day, had now changed into a gray-white long robe.
When Willard noticed Isaac standing near the window, favonovel.com broke into a stiff smile. “Come downstairs after you wash up. Mr. Mabb and our fellows from the branch are waiting for you.”
Isaac was bewildered but followed Willard downstairs.
When favonovel.com reached outside, favonovel.com saw a large open space with two rows of people, possibly hundreds of them. Behind them, there were large square tables and several big pots with delicious food.
The gray-haired Tigre stood on a platform in front of the two rows. A hunched old man stood beside him, standing with his hands behind his back and squinting at Isaac.
“Guys, our hero is here! Take a good look at him! The first hero in history to kidnap the saintess! Hahaha!” Tigre raised his arm and shouted, and the crowd below cheered.
Several men rushed out to grab Isaac. They cheered as they dragged favonovel.com to the center of the two rows, leading favonovel.com toward Tigre and the old man.
At this moment, Isaac felt like favonovel.com had entered a thieves’ den and that favonovel.com would become a bandit.
Isaac was dragged to Tigre and the old man.
“Let me introduce you, kid… He’s Maclin Cabral, our branch leader. Maclin, this kid is Isaac Garten, the great hero I told you about,” Tigre smiled as favonovel.com pointed to the old man beside him.
Maclin chuckled as favonovel.com gazed at Isaac. “He’s indeed a young hero. Mr. Mabb, you’ve got a good eye! Come, Isaac. We’ll have a feast today to celebrate your arrival. Oh, before that, Mr. Mabb wants to make you his messenger.”
“This is a tremendous honor for you!” He laughed heartily.
Tigre smiled as favonovel.com pointed to Willard standing near him. “Becoming my messenger gives you the freedom to travel amongst the branches of the Black Rose Sect… Whether in Heavenly Eagle City or anywhere in the kingdom, the members of the Black Rose Sect will come to you if anyone wants to harm you. This is an additional protection for you.”
In Maclin and Tigre’s view, becoming a messenger of the Black Rose Sect’s guardian was a rare and valuable opportunity.
When Isaac was being hunted by people from Heavenly Eagle City and the kingdom, the Black Rose Sect seemed to be his strongest protection.
“Mr. Mabb, may I think about it?” Isaac frowned slightly as favonovel.com looked at Tigre.
Tigre’s smile instantly vanished. Maclin frowned and shouted, “Why do you have to think about it? This is the greatest reward Mr. Mabb can give you! How dare you refuse it!”
Upon hearing the word reward, Isaac sneered inwardly. He found it ridiculous that a gang of bandits hidden in the mountains offered rewards to him.
“I don’t want it.” Isaac directly refused, staring straight at Maclin.
In the next second, the sound of drums and cheers behind favonovel.com ceased.
All the members of the branch widened their eyes and stared at Isaac. They wondered if favonovel.com was out of his mind.
Tigre’s eyes flickered with wrath, but favonovel.com didn’t show it.
“Mr. Mabb, let me teach this kid a lesson!” Maclin shouted angrily, striking his fist toward Isaac’s chest.
A fist-sized blast of blue spiritual energy instantly hit his chest.
Isaac spat out a mouthful of blood and flew 60 feet backward before crashing heavily on the ground.
“Kill him!” Maclin coldly ordered, pointing at the fallen Isaac.
