Chapter 840 Turmoil In The Village
Chapter 840 Turmoil In The Village
BOOM!
The round table was destroyed in a millisecond as Lith yelled.
Rolling around and taking a defensive stance, Lith felt a sharp stinging pain right at his forearms. Something had punched Lith.
Correcting his breathing, Lith turned extremely serious and calm in this predicament.
His calm demeanour helped him predict the next few attacks which came right at his legs, stomach, and groin.
Blocking everything, Lith shouted, "Form a semicircle!"
This command was for the ladies and even though they all had never worked before, for some reason they found themselves able to coordinate well.
Milia took the middle and the rest were at the sides.
Right as the circle was formed, the force that was hitting Lith seemed to be moving away.
Being able to predict the path of the force's movement, Lith shouted, "Milia, kick hard at your right. Joselyn, punch at the left. Idina…"
While commanding, Lith himself punched the air around him. He didn't exactly know where the force was, but by making complex calculations in his mind, a rough probability was known.
Through various hits, Lith finally found some substance to punch onto and grabbed the thing as firmly as he could.
Giving a shot to the ladies, they surrounded the thing and began punching as hard as they could.
Blood spewed out after a few punches and soon, the six could see the invisibility vanishing and a figure to appear.
A lean and muscular figure was in their sight who was coughing blood and bleeding from various other places as well.
Noticing this figure, the ladies widened their eyes in surprise.
"Keffir!?" They all exclaimed.
"Hmm?" Lith raised an eyebrow at their response.
Knowing Lith's confusion, Milia said while pointing at the guy with visible shock, "That's the number one assassin in the village."
Lith, holding onto the guy's shoulders and suppressing him, held his hair and turned his face up to stare at him.
"Number one assassin?" Lith asked while looking at the middle-aged guy.
This dude seemed so ordinary that it made no sense for him to be an assassin. There was also no sign of him having any aura of an assassin.
Keffir, being held captive by Lith, turned to look at Lith's amethyst eyes and stared at him.
Lith stared back and within the eyes, saw a lifeless look in Keffir's eyes. It was similar to his witch maid Sylvia's, however…
Keffir's eyes suddenly opened wide and his pupil's dilated, showing absolute malice and predation.
Lith, being at the absolute pinnacle, had his eyes shimmer with a red glint in response and sent a shiver down the spine of Keffir.
"AHHH!" Keffir closed his eyes shut immediately, but the damage was done and he began bleeding.
"Huh!?" The ladies were surprised, and Lith too was, but for a different reason.
Touching his own eyes and continuing to look at Keffir's eyes, Lith saw a red haze and soon, found that his eye powers had been unsealed.
Which power had been unsealed, that was yet to be known, but this was a great surprise nonetheless.
"What did you do?" Milia placed her hand on Lith's shoulder and asked.
Lith shrugged. He didn't have the right words to make a proper excuse and just said, "Maybe he got blinded by my handsomeness."
The ladies chuckled at this joke while Milia shook her head with a smile. She hoped for a proper answer, but well, if Lith didn't want to say it, she wasn't going to force him.
"I never would've guessed that the looming of death belonged to our own place." Idina suddenly said.
The rest of the ladies nodded their heads in response.
"I just checked outside, the eerie ambience is gone." Solina added with a gleeful smile.
"It really was us…" Milia's expression wasn't as gleeful and she said with a frown.
Joselyn, at this point, sighed and said, "I should've foreseen this."
Putting the unconscious Keffir down on the floor, Lith stood on him and asked Joselyn, "What foreseen?"
"This thing…The assassination… Although I'm not sure, I can guess what might've happened." Joselyn responded.
Lith scrunched his nose and chuckled. "You don't have to guess, I know for sure what might've transpired. Anyway, I'll update you on what to do about this. For now, dispose this guy off."
"Are you sure?" Joselyn asked. "He could be of great help."
"Hmm…" Lith rubbed his chin and pondered over it. "He's blinded… but alright."
Saying so, Lith held the guy's foot and dragged him out of his house.
The ladies wondered what he was up to now and understanding them, Lith said while walking away, "I need to test a few things, you five continue on with normal business until I come back."
The five nodded their heads in response and once Lith was out of the house and entered the one meant for training, he threw the guy like trash on the floor and sat down beside him to analyze him.
There was something really strange about this world. His cultivation was sealed and people had no ability in regards to magic, then how in the world was invisibility a thing?
Was this some strange martial arts or was it due to something else that Lith was seriously not able to look into?
To find answers to such questions, he had brought this guy here to check what was up.
He was invisible for quite a while and wasn't found until seriously injured. This was quite fascinating as this guy was able to even evade Lith's super sharp Vampire senses.
The next few days were thus spent on researching the assassin and learning more about this world's cultivation and in the meantime, the turmoil in the village wasn't over, rather, it only ended up increasing due to the shortage of milk supply.
The north and south farm owners, Aolmond and Himel, were in great panic due to the sudden disappearance of Keffir and no apparent need from him for the past few days.
Their panic was the reason for the less supply for milk and hence the reason for the village's turmoil.
Milk was a necessity and something that people needed on an everyday basis like water. With the supply of that being cut, people were starting to stock up on the already available milk, making the supply of it get even more scarce.
The east and the west farms were suffering the brunt of things and the Kurois were asked to produce more and more milk, resulting in many feeling really tired and unable to produce any more milk.
With such adversity rising in the village, there was one place that wasn't worried about anything.
It was Lith's very own milk farm.
The Kurois in this place were happy due to the multiple orgasms they got every single day. The production of milk was also similar to the four farms despite only having one-third the amount of Kurois.
The five ladies of Lith could clearly see the turmoil and it wouldn't be right to not benefit from such a situation.
They all got to work and in just half a day, the stress of the lessened milk supply was taken off from the entire village.
People were back to normal and the two owners who were panicking, panicked further.
Aolmond and Himel knew they had miscalculated greatly and the elders definitely would've been alerted by the sudden attack from Keffir and then them lessening their milk supply.
In their moments of distress, they made the wrong move, but things hadn't gone far too wrong yet. There was still something they could do to salvage the situation.
Firstly, the two knew that there was no proof of them being the culprit. Keffir was absent and so was the new guy. Secondly, even if they were found out, there was nothing much the council could do as these two were really influential and in the truest sense, big shots.
The northern and the southern region depended on them for the milk supply and it was a great power they possessed.
With such things in mind, Aolmond suggested that they get back to being normal and pretend that nothing had gone wrong.
As long as Keffir and the new guy were absent, everything was fine.
Aolmond and Himel breathed a sigh of relief after quite a few days.
Their sense of relief could be felt by the ladies back in Lith's residential complex and they couldn't help but laugh at them.
Everything was out in the open and just one move could destroy these big monopolies. They just needed one command from Lith, their master, and it was a done deal.
It had been almost a week and the ladies were wondering just how long it would take for Lith to come out of the training building.
Meanwhile, on Lith's side, he was currently experiencing something really weird.
Inside the cultivation building, Lith was breathing heavily while in a weird handstand.
He was standing on just his left hand's pinky finger, his lower body was bent and his eyes were closed.
Lith was pondering something deep while in such a stance and in the corner, Keffir was tied up and staring at him, wondering just what was Lith even doing.
After an hour of being in this stance, a sudden tired expression appeared on Lith's face and he thought, 'Something's not right. There's a suffocating feeling that shouldn't exist.'
