Meanwhile, elsewhere, in the depths of the Thorny Forest.

Three dark figures were dashing through the forest, occasionally glancing behind them.

After realizing there was no movement following them, the trio gradually slowed down.

“The plot must have failed! Arthur knows even our hiding place.

It’s possible that Vicente and Nolan have betrayed the organization, damn it! Levan, that old guy, hasn’t given me the reward he promised!”

One of them spoke, his face gloomy, his tone full of anger and unwillingness.

“Forget about the reward, it’s a question whether Levan can survive at all. I told him a long time ago that the Golden Lion Family is not that easy to handle, but he didn’t listen. He deserves to die!”

Another voice chimed in, its tone complex.

“Hmph, good riddance! What qualifications does a waste who has practiced the Meditation Technique all his life and is still a Level 1 Wizard Apprentice have to lead the Black Robe Seeker’s Club anyway? Might as well help us stall Arthur.” Having said this, the person looked back, his heart slightly trembling. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

After seeing that no one had caught up, he breathed a sigh of relief.

“Let’s go quickly, it’s not safe here either. We should leave as soon as possible. If everything goes as planned, we should be out of the Far East Territory by tomorrow.”

As his words fell, the three of them quickened their pace again.

But as expected, things did not go according to plan. Next moment, the unexpected happened!

“I’m afraid you guys won’t be able to leave!”

In the dead of night, an exceedingly faint voice echoed.

[Knight Skill?Shockwave Slash]!!

A flashing blue light streaked by, as a head was sent flying! The sound of gushing fresh blood was crystal clear in the black night!

“It’s an ambush!”

The reactions of the remaining two were extremely swift, realizing almost the instant the blue light flashed.

[Zero Ring Magic.Shadow Ball]

[Zero Ring Magic?Hand of Shadow]

Almost instantly, two spells rolled one after the other towards the shadowy spot where the attack had originated from.

After severing a head, Elm did not hide his intentions.

The Knight Sword in his hand swung, and a bright blue airflow burst around him.

“Die!”

With not a bit of defensive posture against the magic, Elm fiercely faced the two spells, his Knight Sword slashing towards the two in front of him.

When the spells collided with Elm’s body, a loud sound echoed.

A streak of madness gleamed in the eyes of the two Wizard Apprentices who had cast the spells; they never expected that someone dumb enough to block magic with his body existed.

What they didn’t see, however, was the cold sneer and mockery on Elm’s face.

Elm’s sword did not slash towards them.

Because the lethal blow for them was not Elm’s desperate attack carrying their spells.

It was coming from behind them!

[Knight Skill?Crimson Moon Cross Slash]! ! A dazzling red light illuminated the Thorny Forest.

This strike was lethal!

Elm’s desperate demeanor and that word “die” hadn’t made them wary of their backs at all.

Therefore, when they felt a strong wind from behind, it was already too late.

They were unable to use the magic inscribed in their Spiritual Sea in such a short time.

Without a doubt, they were reduced to minced meat on the ground.

But William, who had launched this attack, showed no signs of joy. In fact, he didn’t even glance at the minced meat on the ground.

Instead, he frowned and spoke: “Actually, we didn’t have to do it this way. Even if we confronted them head-on, they wouldn’t have had the ability to resist.

This was too risky.”

While speaking, William got closer to Elm and helped him up.

The power of a wizard’s magic is astonishing, and the magic of a wizard apprentice is no less so. In normal circumstances, even a Grand Knight wouldn’t dare to resist magic with their body.

Their prior discussions hadn’t included this, but William claimed to be accustomed to it.

Indeed, Elm nonchalantly started to speak next, “Isn’t this the fastest way?

Besides, I’m not injured.”

Elm secretly swallowed a mouthful of fresh blood, his face full of indifference.

Seeing this, William couldn’t help but shake his head.

Your nose is about to spill blood, yet you claim to be uninjured.

However, William didn’t call Elm out on his bluff, knowing how stubborn his friend could be.

On the other hand, Milton Cheney was feeling quite peculiar at this moment.

Yes, peculiar.

Because after testing the waters, he found this wizard apprentice seemed different from what he had imagined.

He wasn’t stronger than imagined, nor was he saving up any powerful magic.

Instead, he seemed very weak.

“Could this be a Level 2 Wizard Apprentice? How could a Level 2 Wizard Apprentice be so weak?”

An Armor Splitting Slash by Milton narrowly missed Levan, who was somewhat flustered as he dodged.

At this point, Levan looked extremely uncomfortable.

He felt he’d been played. He was certain that the person before him was not Arthur.

And the person who wasn’t Arthur was not a stranger either; it was Vernon Wesley whom they had been trying to kill by hook or by crook! “Vernon is a Grand Knight? How is that even possible!”

Levan felt like his last few decades of experience had been overturned.

The moment Vernon revealed himself and attacked him, Levan felt as though the world he knew had changed.

Vicente and Nolan’s failure made sense now. Damn it! Trying to ambush a Grand Knight who was prepared beforehand, success would be a miracle.

[Zero Ring Magic.Hand of Shadow]

Once again dodging a magic attack from Levan, Milton was now quite sure. He was sure that the wizard apprentice before him was not pretending to be weak, but was genuinely weak.

“So I’ve been engaging in a battle of wits and strength with thin air?”

Realizing this, Milton was somewhat dumbfounded.

Why would a Level 1 Wizard Apprentice like you not escape with your companions and instead stand your ground pretending to be undefeatable?

Now, with hundreds of Dark Guards surrounding you, even with me, a Grand Knight, you probably can’t escape.

Moreover, the signal flare I’ve just launched wasn’t for show; Earl Arthur should be arriving soon.

So, what’s your game? Are you courting death?

Milton felt slightly embarrassed in his heart, having been fooled despite his worldly experience.

But only slightly, after all, this wizard apprentice’s pretense had been so convincing he really thought he was dealing with someone important.

The next moment, Milton went all out, signaling the surrounding Dark Guards to join in the attack.

The Dark Guards had been surrounding but not attacking Levan until now, as per Milton’s instructions.

After all, Milton didn’t know how powerful this wizard apprentice was initially and wouldn’t willingly send a bunch of Quasi-Knights to their deaths.

Now that he knew this wizard apprentice was merely pretending to be strong but wasn’t actually strong, he naturally had no more worries.

[Knight Skill?Burst]

[Knight SkillDouble-edged Continuous Slash]!!

A golden airflow burst around Milton, finally swirling onto his hands and the Lionheart Sword.

Levan couldn’t block this attack!

A flash of golden light streaked past, immensely conspicuous in the dark night.

Simultaneously, this flash of golden light brought several droplets of blood flying through the air!
