The man leaned slightly over the table.

“There was a contract not long ago. It had to be a foreign human. Discreet work. A lot of money involved.”

I felt that irritating cold sensation settle in my stomach.

“To kill someone?”

“I never heard that word.”

“What did you hear?”

“That they needed to solve a problem connected to the palace.”

The silence after those words felt much too large.

I felt Kian move behind me, but I didn’t look.

“Who hired him?”

“I don’t know.”

“Who acted as the i

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 63 — Noble Money

    Elara VeyneThe man leaned slightly over the table.“There was a contract not long ago. It had to be a foreign human. Discreet work. A lot of money involved.”I felt that irritating cold sensation settle in my stomach.“To kill someone?”“I never heard that word.”“What did you hear?”“That they needed to solve a problem connected to the palace.”The silence after those words felt much too large.I felt Kian move behind me, but I didn’t look.“Who hired him?”“I don’t know.”“Who acted as the intermediary?”He hesitated slightly.“People who get paid not to ask questions.”I nearly scoffed.That didn’t help me at all.I needed to know who was involved in this.“That doesn’t answer me.”“It’s the answer I have, girl.”His voice remained calm, but not in a defensive way. That was precisely what made me believe he knew that world far better than he pretended.Maybe he was telling the truth.Or half of it.Maybe he was carefully choosing which part of the truth wouldn’t get his throat cut

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 62 — The Price of an Answer

    Elara Veyne“Then you probably are.”The voice came from behind us.I stopped before taking my second step out of the passage and slowly turned around, still feeling the heat of Kian’s hand around my waist as though he hadn’t just let me go.The man was leaning against the wall of the neighboring building.I was certain he hadn’t been there when we went in.That alone was already a terrible introduction.He looked human. Maybe a little over thirty. He had dark hair tied at the nape of his neck, simple clothes, and a thin scar cutting through one of his eyebrows. Nothing about him stood out enough to be remembered afterward.Which was probably exactly the point.His eyes passed over me and stopped on Kian for a moment. Not for long.But long enough.Most people did that.Even dressed in ordinary clothes, Kian continued to have a serious problem with the concept of looking insignificant.He was too big.Too quiet.And now that the wolf was awake, there was something about the way he occ

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 61 — What Changed

    Mireya VareshThe change of subject was so obvious it almost irritated me.“I know...”“He was supposed to remain away for several more weeks, but now he seems to have developed a sudden interest in everything that happened here while he was gone.”“And why does that worry you?”Rayan didn’t answer immediately.“The timing worries me.”That was curious.It was the exact same word I would have used.Tavian returning now complicated everything.Not because I believed he was responsible for anything.But because my son wasn’t blind.And unlike the court, Tavian had known Kian before he became so ill.He knew his scent, his reflexes.The way his presence was supposed to feel.He would notice changes others might ignore.“You should have thought about that before,” I said.Rayan looked at me dangerously.“Before what?”I kept my expression calm.“Before turning the Saref dinner into another crisis.”His anger immediately changed direction.“Kian did that on his own.”“Kian refused a marria

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 60 — The Things You Did

    Mireya VareshWhen one of the servants informed me that Rayan wanted to see me immediately, my first reaction was to think of Kian.Not because I knew something had happened. That was precisely the problem.I didn’t know.It was already past midafternoon, and until that moment, no one had come to tell me that he had returned to his chambers. I had done everything I could to keep his absence away from the wrong eyes, instructing the servants in his wing to say that the prince needed to rest and making sure no unexpected visitor came close enough to realize his bed was empty.It had worked for a few hours.Apparently, not all of them.I crossed the corridor toward the King’s private chambers with the unpleasant feeling that perhaps I had made a mistake that morning.Maybe I should have left Kian where he was, allowed Elara to go out alone as she wanted, and simply waited to see what would happen.But I had already waited too long over the years.All of us had.And now that things were f

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 59 — Too Close

    Elara VeyneThen Kian pulled me aside.Everything happened too quickly.He crossed the narrow space between two buildings, taking me with him.It was little more than a passage used for ventilation and perhaps storage. Boxes were stacked against one wall, leaving barely enough room for two people to squeeze through.Two normal people.Kian was not a normal-sized person.My back hit the wall, and he stopped in front of me.Close...Far too close.His chest brushed mine with every breath.One of his hands remained around my waist while the other pressed against the wall beside my head.I felt his heat immediately, and once again found myself thinking about how ridiculous the amount of heat that man produced was.The voices of the patrol drew closer.Kian turned his face toward the street.Then I saw his eyes, red.Not a faint glow this time.They were truly red.“Shit...”He looked at me.“What?”“Your eyes.”His jaw tightened.A voice sounded just outside the passage.They were much too

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 58 — She’s With Me

    Elara VeyneWhen Harun said night market, my mind immediately imagined some particularly suspicious gathering of criminals hidden inside dark tents.I was wrong.Very wrong.As night fell, Namarra seemed to finally decide to truly wake up.During the day, the heat made the streets feel heavy. People moved quickly between shadows, awnings, and buildings, trying to stay out of the sun whenever possible.Once it disappeared behind the walls, everything changed.The southern market stretched across several wide streets, illuminated by dozens of lanterns hanging between the buildings. Colorful fabrics swayed above the stalls, shielding merchants and merchandise from the heat that still rose from the stones. The scent of ripe fruit mixed with roasted meat, spices, sweet oils, and some strong drink a man was serving in small metal cups.There was music somewhere, but I couldn’t figure out where it was coming from.Maybe because there were simply too many people.Humans walked beside lupines.
