"We don't need to worry about these corpses, right? There's no one around here anyway. Let's leave quickly and let the monsters around here take care of these bodies," Diane suggested after a moment of contemplation.
Severin launched his flying sword and prepared for departure. "Let's make haste, then. No one will find out what we did because we're practically in the middle of nowhere."
The flying sword soon ascended into the air and flew forward at great speed.
"We have nothing to be afraid of, right? These are just disciples from a second-tier sect. The sect that we'll be joining is a first-tier sect. Their sect wouldn't dare to provoke us even if they find out that we were behind the killings," Sheila remarked with a grin.
Severin concurred. "You're not wrong, but they might still try to harass us if they find out. I would much rather not attract any unnecessary trouble if I can help it. Besides, we haven't officially joined the sect yet, and it would be wise not to bring trouble to the sect when we're all just newbies."
Diane was still a little concerned, and she voiced her worries to Severin, "I can't help myself from worrying, honey. Selene has such low attainment, and she's still very young. Will she face opposition from certain people because of that?"
After some reflection, Severin reassured her, "I think we can set concerns aside. My uncle-master is the sect's leader, and any opposition to her won't carry much weight. Selene is young, but she's already a warrior king. Relatively speaking, she's not weak. Given her talent, she'll become a formidable practitioner in no time." He then continued, "If anyone makes a strong objection, I will reveal my ability as a fourth-grade medium-rank alchemist to them. Let's see if that is enough to silence them."
Sheila chuckled. "That'll shut their mouths for sure! Any first-tier sect would want a fourth-grade medium-rank alchemist in their ranks."
