The bear-masked individual listened to his partner and responded, "Whatever the reason may be, we just need to complete our task. If we can kill her, that's the best outcome, but if there's a problem, then we should simply report everything to his majesty."

The wolf-masked individual said, "What problem could we encounter in this place? We're both peak Earth Profound Stage Artists, and together we have even killed many Heaven Profound Stage Artists. Killing her will be easy; we just need to see if there's any protector assigned to her. By the way, why would she be living in this mortal town?" f reeweb novel.com

The bear-masked individual shook its head and said, "Well, we have to be cautious as Sire third died around this area, so it's better to be careful. As for why she is living here, we don't know; in fact, we don't even know if she's here. It's just that our spies said that Jev Kela spent some time here, and combined with the death of Sire third here, it was too much of a coincidence, so we are here to check."

The two of them checked the whole town and didn't find anything suspicious. Even the people were just mortals. They then went to the last building in the town.

The wolf-masked individual stood before the bookstore and said, "Hey, I'm getting a bad feeling from this bookstore. Can we go back and inform his majesty about this bookstore so he can handle it by sending some of the elders?"

The bear was also feeling uneasy like the wolf, but he made up his mind and said, "It's a mission, Wolf; we have to complete it. Let's just check, and if we find something, we'll retreat."

The wolf hesitated but nodded after considering the mission. If they went back now and reported false information, they would face punishment for failing the mission.

They had just taken a step forward when...

...A cake appeared out of nowhere and smashed into their faces. Their masks broke immediately as soon as the cake landed on them, smearing cake all over their faces.

They both were startled and immediately assumed battle stances. Daggers appeared in their hands after they threw away the cake, and they scanned their surroundings to identify the source of the attack. They didn't even pay attention to the cream that was on their faces.

They looked around, but there was nothing but silence in the atmosphere. They became even more alert and kept their guard up.

The one with the wolf mask, a middle-aged man, suddenly felt a crawling sensation on his cheek that made him want to scratch it, but he didn't pay much attention to it. However, the itching spread to every part of his body.

He couldn't maintain his focus any longer and began to scratch lightly, but as the itch worsened, he started scratching vigorously while still keeping an eye on his surroundings. 𝙛𝓻𝓮𝓮𝔀𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝒎

The same thing happened to the other one as he scratched his face. But the itching didn't stop; instead, it spread to his whole body, and he started scratching his entire body like a monkey. He felt a sense of satisfaction during and immediately after scratching, but the itching returned, so he scratched again.

He coated his whole body in profound energy and tried to alleviate the itching, but it increased even more. He groaned in pain. Since profound energy wasn't working, he covered himself in flames, but even then, it had no effect. It was as if the itching was fused with his body.

He turned around and found his partner in the same condition, his partner was even rubbing his whole body on the ground and scratching at the same time.

The bear gritted his teeth and spoke with difficulty as the itching increased every second, "Hey, it must be... that thing we got attacked with... it's because of that this itching is happening... nothing is working... we have to run... let's go."

His partner heard him, but he wasn't in any condition to respond. His whole face was red and swollen, small bumps on his cheeks, and even some blood began to ooze from open sores.

Seeing his partner's condition, the other one stopped paying attention to him and immediately took some healing pills, hoping that it could stop or at least lessen the itching so he could seek help for this itching. As for his partner, he couldn't care less about him.

At the top of the bookstore, Asty, Aadi, and Aurora were watching the whole drama with their sunglasses on, even though it was night, and a big bucket of popcorn.

Asty munched on the popcorn and said, "This was the show you were talking about? It's kind of disappointing; I was expecting much more. Don't tell me it's just itching powder cake you've prepared; it will be plain boring."

Aadi rolled his eyes at Asty and replied, "It's because you've seen my great inventions before, so of course, you will find this level of show disappointing. Besides, they don't deserve my great inventions. I'm using the simplest version of the Dao of Cake on them. It is the greatest honor for them. The only reason I'm even bothering is to teach Aurora about the various uses of the Dao of Cake and that killing your enemy isn't the only solution."

Aadi then pointed his finger at Aurora, who wasn't even listening to their conversation and was just enjoying the spectacle before her. "See, she's enjoying it and learning from it. Besides, this is just the first thing; there are two more."

As he said this, a big circular hole appeared beneath the two spies, and they immediately fell into the hole as their screams echoed from within.

A sound of something falling into a body of water echoed from the hole.

The two men were very anxious, and the moment they fell into the hole, fear gripped them. They didn't even know who the enemy was, so the unknown was even more frightening.

When they reached the bottom, they found that the whole hole was filled with water. They sighed in relief and allowed themselves to float in the water.
