The Duke couldn’t see any flaws in this accusation. Liathel was beautiful, and with William’s reputation and declining status, any noble could commit such atrocities against them.“Milord?!” Mia asked the Duke.“My lord! There has to be another way!” William added.“Well… If you guys can think of a reason to barge into their residence, then go for it rightfully. But if not, that suggestion will work! Basically, anything that will warrant you charging in their place uninvited and where you start attacking their men and force them to defend themselves.” The Duke explained.The group huddled together and quickly made suggestions. But the Duke always had a reason to shoot them down, claiming it was unreasonable. “It has to make sense and is hard to refute. Your goal is to buy time. It has to be something that demands their attention, and it has to be something that they cannot easily prove wrong. Not to mention, your task is only to confront them. We don’t want your family to be on the r

The Count was expected to make his appearance. With the plot of assassinating a duke, it was expected that everyone involved would have their respective excuses. The druids have made their excuses, and their specific role wouldn’t make them make a direct appearance, but they would cast a spell from a certain distance to perform their magic.But the Count was a person of authority and had to properly make preparations to give him an excuse and exclude him from the list of suspects. And so, to do that, he had to present himself as the esteemed guest of the Viscount who had made reservations and was hosting a party as their sponsored fighter had moved to the next round.The Emerion family continued to enjoy the festivities, and at the seat of honor was Count Brent Sarfaron.“Do we just walk in and shout at the hand of god? Wouldn’t he choke us?” Richard laughed as the group slowly approached.“We will find out, won’t we?” William laughed as he moved towards the mansion's entrance and was

The traitor didn’t have time to wait for confirmation. He hastily acted in getting the group inside.“Everyone! Follow my orders!” The traitor mage walked around and issued commands.“Be careful! There are more detected around the area! Follow my command!” The traitor rearranged the positions of each mage and told them to be warier.Lilly and Selena saw the changes as more mages gathered in certain places.“Stop!” Lilly charged closer with her light constantly shining.“I am not here to fight you! Get me my stuff back and I’ll leave!” Lilly shouted.On the other side, Selena also approached.“Yes. Mine as well. We have cut ties with all of you, but if we move inside, we are sure that you will harm or torture us! Get us our stuff and we will leave!“You have cut ties and cursed the guild! How dare you! All your items… all of them are ours! Didn’t you two win a lot by betting on those fools? Then why would you need your stuff back? Just buy another!” A Mid Adept shouted and called out t

The nobles around were stunned at the horrifying turn of events.An Adept Knight in the service of count Sarfaron had been proven to have raped a Baron!The count quickly moved towards his body-double to see the extent of the wound.The wound struck deep and even injured the bones of Ronald. And the cut on the hip was not just an ordinary small cut. The brute power that flew and struck had a wide, explosive power that destroyed the entire side of the right hip. The wound was thick that it could not be healed easily and would take days even with the cultivation of the knight and the medicine that he had access to.“How dare you…!” The enraged roar of the count erupted out and his massive hand charged toward Liathel.The hand was thick and contained the full power of a Mid Expert!None of them could block the attack.The Shield Prince cursed and didn’t think that the count would have been so enraged that he would send out his full attack on Liathel!William and Richard moved but the exp

Lilly and Selena were now evading and flying above the lands as they continued to launch threatening attacks.While they launched small attacks that struck the magic shield the mages had created, Lilly and Selena never truly released Adept-level attacks to make it look like they were attacking the mansion.Their attacks were only made to threaten or harass.And whenever the mages at the back would launch an attack on Lilly, Lilly would scream out to the heavens that she, a competitor of the tournament, is being attacked!Soon, two mid-Adepts serving Duke Kanter arrived and stood at the edge of the mansion.“What is going on here?! You are too loud!” The Mid Adept shouted.“These mages, due to spite and anger in losing at the gambles against the Tamers, have kept my stuff! I just want my stuff back!” Lilly shouted.BOOM! BOOM!Lilly then sent out numerous attacks.The appearance of Duke Kanter’s adepts posed a problem for many mages. But on the other hand, the traitor was taking advant
