Chapter 106: Evading Death Again

Six figures emerged from the darkness and rushed towards them.

”Protect Sir Ben!” The old Knight barked at his men as he carefully assessed the enemies.

Two Knights and four Knight Apprentices… I need to stop the two Knights while my men will take care of the others.

”One of you will stay and protect Sir Ben! The rest will follow me to eliminate the enemies!” The old Knight instructed with a grim look.

”Yes, sir!”

In the next moment, the two sides clashed.

The sounds of their weapons colliding resonated across the streets.

Some curious people secretly watched the fight while maintaining a safe distance.

In the slums, small-scale battles like this were common so this scene wasnʼt new to the residents.

Liamʼs crew showed their superiority in terms of skills. Other than the old Knight who managed to hold back two of Liamʼs subordinates, the rest died one after another.

”Go and run! I canʼt hold them back for long!” The old Knight roared as he pushed back Liamʼs crew all by himself.

Hearing his words, his remaining subordinate immediately carried their master and retreated with haste.

Seeing this, the old Knight sighed in relief.

”Youʼre quite tough, old man. Why donʼt you join my group? I can pay you decently.” Liam smiled at the old Knight.

The old man ignored him and fought his way out. He even managed to slay one of Liamʼs subordinates in the process which made the latterʼs face turn dark.

”Kill him! I want him dead!” Liam was furious. The one who died was part of his motherʼs hidden forces so his loyalty was unquestionable. Losing him meant he had lost another confidant.

Liamʼs subordinates were also triggered by the death of their comrade. They charged ferociously while swinging their weapons at the old man.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The old Knight managed to parry their weapons, but because of his age, his stamina was starting to decline. His breath had become heavier and his arms were starting to lose strength.

Not yet! I must kill the two Knights to give Sir Ben a chance to escape safely!

With a determined look, he infused his remaining mana into his limbs, giving a momentary boost in strength.

The sudden increase in his power caught Liamʼs crew off guard and another unlucky Knight Apprentice died after having his neck pierced with a sword.

Liam was also injured and if it werenʼt for the Knights protecting him, his arms would have been chopped off.

Fuck!

He winced as the pain registered.

While the old man was still occupied by his men, Liam grabbed a handful of dirt and threw it at the latterʼs face.

Hm?

The old Knight unconsciously shifted his head.

He was able to evade most of the dirt, but some still found their way into his eyes.

Liamʼs subordinates took this opportunity to attack the old man.

”You cowardly bastards!” The old Knight roared as he forced his eyes open.

With a burst of speed, he pounced at Liam who seemed to be the leader of the group, but the two Knights immediately blocked his path.

The old man swung his sword, sending one of the Knights flying, while the other one took a stab to his shoulder.

After dealing with them, he rushed towards Liam and shouted with bloodshot eyes. ”Die!!”

He raised his sword and was about to slash it down when he saw Liam pulling out a crossbow from his back.

Suu!!

The crossbow bolt pierced the old manʼs chest, making him stagger and fall to his knees.

Liam grabbed his sword and approached the old man cautiously.

”Old man, many people tried to kill me, but no one succeeded.” He muttered in a mocking voice.

”You should have accepted my offer.” Liam shook his head with disappointment. He then lifted his sword and swung it down hard.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, the old Knight seemed to have regained his strength as he lifted his sword to block Liamʼs attack.

Clang!

The alarmed Liam immediately retreated while the old Knight chased after him.

”Save me you fools!” Liam barked with a shaking voice, but his subordinates were too far to offer a hand.

At that moment, Liam found himself leaning against the wall.

Shit!

The old Knight walked towards him, eyeing him coldly with his bloodshot eyes.

Just when Liam thought that he would die, the old man suddenly collapsed in front of him.

Thud.

Liam almost pissed himself.

This was the second time he felt the feeling of impending doom. The first one was when Alaric challenged him to a sacred duel.

He fell on his butt and breathed heavily while staring at the old Knightʼs corpse.

”My- Boss, are you alright?”

Liam glared at them. ”Do I look alright to you? I almost fucking died!”

After lashing out at them, he stood up and repeatedly stabbed the old Knight. ”Damn you, old bastard! Fuck you!”

He then spat at the old Knightʼs corpse and cursed at him.

”What about the target?” Liam raised his head while wiping off the grime on his face.

”I already sent our boys to chase them. He only has a Knight Apprentice protecting him now so there shouldnʼt be an issue.”

”We canʼt be careless. We must kill him tonight!” Liam had lost two subordinates in this operation. The two remaining Knight Apprentices were even injured, including the Knights.

”Yes, boss!”

They immediately left the scene afterward.

***

At the outskirts of the Enchanted Woodlands, ten robed figures riding horses emerged. Their bodies were obscured by the oversized robes making it hard for anyone to judge their appearance.

”Everyone is ready to depart, Your Highness.” One of the robes figures reported to the one at the forefront.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew by, pulling off the hood of the figure at the front which revealed her beautiful face.

Her white hair danced with the wind and her serene eyes stared into the distance as she uttered. ”Letʼs go.”
