Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 21: Chapter 21: Heart-to-Heart

”Frost Wolf Ice Armor!”

David took a step forward, the chill spreading out and transforming into ice armor!

The next moment, a barrage of assassins’ weapons came, but they were completely blocked by the Frost Wolf Ice Armor, unable to shake it in the slightest!

Seeing this, the assassins were visibly stunned. Some recognized the Frost Wolf Ice Armor and their faces changed abruptly, showing disbelief.

Frost Wolf Ice Armor!

This is the signature power of the Frost Wolf Knight.

But why.

Isn’t the current Duke Frost Wolf supposed to be a failure who hasn’t even awakened his bloodline?

Why can the Duke Frost Wolf wield the Frost Wolf Ice Armor!

They’ve been fooled!

The Duke Frost Wolf hid his strength too well!

This thought flashed through their minds.

But now it’s too late to retreat; the assassins exchanged glances and their figures flashed as they charged again, determined to kill the Duke Frost Wolf together!

Frost Wolf Breath!

David did not retreat but advanced, his knight’s sword slashing out.

Instantly, the surrounding ice elemental power was drawn in by him, a terrifying chill engulfed within a single strike, spreading over the assassins in front of him!

With his current intermediate ice elemental talent and the ice power contained in the Frost Giant Wolf, the power of the Frost Wolf Breath was already not inferior to regular ice magic!

At this moment, the three assassins facing the Frost Breath felt their whole bodies suddenly stiffen, a terrifying cold invading their very bones as if their blood would freeze, rendering them incapable of resisting at all in just one encounter!

”How is this possible?!” Now, the only thing they could still move was their minds, filled with horror, and their eyes were full of disbelief!

And in the next moment, their consciousness also fell into darkness!

With just one strike, David’s knight’s sword killed three assassins with official knight power, as easy as slaughtering chickens!

After slaying these three assassins, he turned and his gaze fell on the assassins behind him, raising his knight’s sword and slashing, cutting the assassin who had gotten behind him in half, blood instantly staining the ground red!

”Retreat, this guy is too strong!”

In just a few encounters, these assassins immediately determined they were absolutely no match, the Duke Frost Wolf’s strength was definitely at Tier Three, possibly even stronger!

At this moment, these assassins were completely scared out of their wits.

But now, it’s not up to them to leave if they want to!

The Gray Wolf Knight had already slaughtered those mercenaries, leading the knight’s attendants to encircle the remaining three assassins.

”Speak, who sent you.” David said lightly.

The three assassins exchanged glances, still considering a desperate fight.

David stepped forward, not giving these assassins a chance to resist, killing one with each step, taking all three down instantly!

”No need to say it then.” His expression remained calm.

In fact, he already knew they were people from the Ice Bear Clan.

In the entire Northern Lands, only the Ice Bear Clan had the resources to hire so many assassins at official knight level.

Unfortunately, now is not the time to fall out with the Ice Bear Clan, so he didn’t need these assassins to expose the Ice Bear Clan, maintaining a facade of friendliness.

”Young Master David...”

The Gray Wolf Knight came over, his expression complicated.

Although it wasn’t the first time he’d seen the Lord in action, this time facing a siege by seven assassins at official knight level, Young Master David had managed to take down four in an instant, displaying overwhelming strength!

In such a short time, he felt that Young Master David had grown much stronger.

But how was this achieved?

Even the Flame Dragon Knight, with the strongest talent on the continent, shouldn’t be better?

”Yes, clean up the mess.” David said calmly.

Afterwards, he scanned his gaze, each militiaman filled with expressions of awe, and as the Lord looked over, they all knelt down in salute.

Finally, his gaze fell on the standing Roman Knight.

At this moment, the Roman Knight’s eyes were full of shock.

Though he was confident he could handle these assassins if he wasn’t injured, he couldn’t do it so easily!

Tier Three Peak!

Only one step away from Tier Four Earth Knight!

This young Duke Frost Wolf possessed such terrifying power!

To have power close to Tier Four Earth Knight at twenty, such talent could be called genius across the continent, even surpassing their Princess Jingge!

”It seems we need to talk.” David said lightly.

He then suddenly started walking towards the thatched house where Princess Jingge was.

The Roman Knight followed behind, his face changing.

Inside the thatched house, Princess Jingge was slightly panting, her mind still on the scene she’d just witnessed, mixed among the crowd, the Duke Frost Wolf’s power far exceeded her expectations, causing her to have different thoughts.

If the Duke Frost Wolf could help her...

Just as she was pondering this, David stepped into the thatched house.

Earlier, he had noticed among the refugees a formal knight hidden, and now, upon approaching, he discovered it was a young woman.

A Tier Three Knight’s guard, combined with the girl’s own formal knight power, David squinted, saying, ”Speak, who are you?”

The Roman Knight had already stepped in front of Princess Jingge, his face serious.

Princess Jingge shook her head at her knight, then approached David, taking a deep breath and saying, ”Duke Frost Wolf, I am Princess Reina of the Jingge Kingdom.”

”You are the Third Princess of the Jingge Kingdom?”

”Why are you here, disguised as a refugee?”

David frowned.

The Jingge Kingdom bordered the Northern Lands, a fact he was aware of.

However, apart from having gone through a cold wave, it seemed something else had happened in the Jingge Kingdom, forcing the kingdom’s princess to disguise herself as a refugee.

Under normal circumstances, Princess Jingge could simply reveal her identity, and the Northern Nobles, wary of the Jingge Kingdom, would send her back.

So...

”Who is pursuing you?”

”How could they even cause the Jingge Kingdom to not protect their princess?”

Looking at the silent two, David spoke directly.

With Frost Wolf Ridge’s current situation, he didn’t have time to waste with them.

Princess Jingge looked at David, sighing in her heart.

This Duke Frost Wolf was indeed smart, having guessed the gist of the situation with just speculation, leaving her with no words to say.

”It’s the Duke of Ice Crown.” Princess Jingge said.

”He revolted?”

Indeed... Princess Jingge helplessly explained everything.

After listening, David fell into silence, continuously tapping the table, occasionally glancing at the disheveled Third Princess, his mind constantly weighing the gains and losses.

Under normal circumstances, sheltering Princess Jingge was undoubtedly a highly risky matter, as it meant opposing the powerful enemy, the Duke of Ice Crown!
