Hero of Darkness

Venessa and her entourage prepared to leave the market hub of Oslom after they were done with the deal. 

Afterwards, Kahn took the body of the jatvuarym inside his Dimensional Domain while acting as if he was using an artifact to store it. 

Both parties left the trading market in different directions and disappeared from each other's sight. 

[That was a really bad deal, boy. You could've simply stolen it and disappeared. 

You went even as far as selling some of the imperial family's heirlooms.] said Rathnaar in a judgmental tone. 

"You don't seem to carefully notice things, old man. 

Do I look like a guy who would make a bad deal?" asked Kahn with an evil grin. 

"Get ready. We have the body in our hands. So we're getting our money back." spoke Kahn. 

[How? Stealing from the princess would create even a bigger issue and gather too much attention. Isn't that why you bought it legally instead of stealing?] asked Rathnaar. 

"And who said we're stealing from the princess?" asked Kahn in an insidious voice. 

[Don't tell me…] asked Rathnaar. 

"Yes." replied Kahn. 

Soon, he mixed among the crowd and walked off toward a big restaurant to take some rest. 

[Master, there are too many people following you. Including spies from the princess' side.] reported Omega. 

[I see many people sent by those attendees from the auction house as well.] said Jugram who was half a kilometer behind Kahn. 

[No need to worry. The more eyes on me, the better.] replied Kahn. 

----------------

As the night finally came, Kahn had around 83 people spying on him after he stopped on the outskirts of the Oslom city and entered a dark valley. 

Swoosh! 

Swoosh! 

Soon, 15 other Kahns appeared in front of him. 

After he became a saint, the Doppelganger skill turned into a SSS Rank skill as well and now, he could summon up to 15 copies of himself and use SS Rank cores to keep them active all the time inside his dimensional domain where they converted and absorbed the mana and world energy from Rathnaar's core and provided the real body with ample supply of space force. 

Soon, all of them disappeared and the original Kahn received his boost of space force and instantly reached his maximum capacity. 

Kahn then activated the skill to create a new doppelganger. And this doppelganger possessed all of his skills other than the divine abilities so it was comparable to Kahn before he became a saint. Simply, it was a semi-saint Kahn in a way. 

ɪғ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ ᴘᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ.ᴄᴏᴍ ᴛᴏ ᴇxᴘᴇʀɪᴇɴᴄᴇ ғᴀsᴛᴇʀ ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ sᴘᴇᴇᴅ.

They both nodded at each other and the real one opened a void crack and entered inside the true dimension. As for the doppelganger, he casually walked around the city without being in any hurry. Leading those who tailed him from afar in opposite direction. 

The doppelganger Kahn was more than enough to get rid of all of these people that were tailing him. 

Someone like him already knew that after buying the corpse of the jatvuarym, the spies of the princess and those who wanted to steal the body from him, the ones who were present during the auction will send their people after him for sure. 

But this also meant a perfect alibi since what Kahn was about to do was many times diabolical. 

----------------

20 MINUTES LATER 

Kahn used true dimension and entered the main building of the Oslo auction house that was filled with people even at this late hour. 

He speedily walked inside the main storage rooms as if he knew the directions about where to go. 

And finally, he stopped inside a vast room whose door suddenly opened from the inside and then closed after he reached the middle of it. 

Crack! 

Kahn exited the dimensional crack and stepped inside the middle of this room. 

Glitter! 

Glitter! 

In front of him, were heaps and peaks of glittering coins that glowed chrome blue. 

Unlike the Rakos empire, the currency of highest monetary value was made from a rare metal which gave it this hue. And now… he was surrounded by crates, barrels and chests filled with it to the point most of it fell out on the ground. 

Tap! 

Tap! 

Two sets of footsteps resounded and two figures appeared behind him. 

A man clad in pitch-black lightweight armor and a mage in white and purple robes. 

"It's done, master." spoke Ronin. 

"We have disarmed and broke all alarms and magic formations that could alert the people of this auction house." said Ceril with a prideful expression. 

Kahn nodded in response to these two trojan horses. 

This was his real plan when he partook in the auction in the first place. 

By using those treasures to buy the corpse of the jatvuarym, he would get what he wanted while gathering the attention of the people on him. Which would help him have a perfect alibi. 

And during the process, Ronin and Ceril jumped from his shadow and mixed with the treasures. Later, they hid in the shadow of the crate that was handed to the people of the auction house by the men who came with Venessa. 

Since the amount was so big… the crates would naturally go to the main vault for safekeeping instead of being used for cash flow. And through it… he sent two of his best generals who excelled in getting rid of traps, alarms, magic formations and barriers to infiltrate inside the main treasury. 

And after he created a doppelganger outside, he used the true dimension to get here undetected while Ronin led him to the main vault from his memory when they were brought in. 

And finally, they opened the door from the inside as it was crucial for the plan since Kahn couldn't just destroy it using dimensional cut. Or the entire security of this place would be alarmed and they'd probably have a saint coming after them in case anyone found out. 

"We have been counting ever since we were done with the task. If I'm right… this place has their money stored from decades. 

And based on my estimations…" spoke Ronin as he gave Kahn a gist of the money they were going to loot. 

"It's 126 trillion harlen!"
