Chapter 54: Force
Border Town inside the branch of the Chivalric Order of Radiant Knights.
Section head! According to the report given by the frontline reconnaissance vanguards a large group of troll foot soldiers gathered outside the border town and formed a dark dense and impenetrable encirclement outside the city walls! Theyre currently requesting for aid to reinforce their post! A knight had fallen to one knee while holding onto his sword. His forehead was covered in sweat he made this report in a frantic and helpless manner.
Whats the hurry? The city gates barrier is still intact what harm would there be to let them build up? Itd all be pointless in the end. Lan Yu was calm and composed as he sat pompously on a mahogany fur chair.
B-But! The barrier stopped functioning for some unknown reasons leaving only the barrier to the city gate intact. With only a handful of frontline knights on the city wall its only a matter of time before the trolls will breach the city walls!
Are you teaching a section head like me what to do soldier? Lan Yu shot a cold glance at the knight; His speech had carried traces of frostiness in them.
Your subordinate wouldnt dare The knight faintly trembled and said in a respectful manner after lowering his head.
Then you should go ahead and do what you need to do. I have my own plans as a section head Lan Yu raised his head and loftily said this. After leaning back he contentedly laid against his seat.
The knight was hesitant and continued to kneel on the ground.
What? Do you not trust your own section head? Lan Yu slightly knitted his brows; He was very dissatisfied that his subordinate was refusing to heed his order. Trolls are brave aggressive and pugnacious. We cannot recklessly fight against these unfeeling and unreasonable barbarians we can only outsmart them. We. Cannot. Recklessly. Fight. Them. Understand? So stand down! Are you thinking of disobeying your orders in these extraordinary times?
Yes yes Knowing that he had already aroused his superiors fury the knight promptly nodded his head and exited the room.
You trolls are indeed capable of forcing an underaged girl like this. Do you dare and fight me in a 1 vs 1 if you have the guts? Ji Bais face turned cold and apathetic as he looked at the red-haired troll that was leading the pack.
Oh alright. In that case this shall be the rule then. If I win you die. If I lose I will return this kitten to you Hahaha! Do you honestly expect your daddy will say such words?! The red-haired troll looked up at the sky as it laughed. When it waved its strength and forceful arms claw-shaped magic that was tinged in a somewhat dark-brown color tore across the air.
Dark-brown color Is that the trollsDivine Vein?
Gliding Strike
Ji Bais pupils tightened. With both his hands holding onto the sword he lowered his body and dodged to the side. The edge of the magical undulations rubbed against the body of his sword creating sparks. Ji Bai made use of the ensuing force and leapt to the side.
Hmm? The red-haired troll narrowed its eyes.
Throw your sword away! Otherwise It glanced its eyes towards Keer behind its back like it was hinting something. Upon seeing this the troll soldier beside the little cat drew back the corner of its mouth. The knife that was horizontal on her neck moved closer to it until it was only a hairs width apart.
Clank. Ji Bai slightly frowned and released his grip allowing the sword to fall onto the ground. He then kicked it away with his leg.
Hehehe. Yes just like that. Just hold still. The corners of the red-haired trolls mouth revealed a cruel smile.
Crack! The sound of an armor tearing quickly resounded. With a pale complexion Ji Bai covered his right arm. A shiny blade had ferociously lodged itself less than half a foot where his shoulder was.
Mr Ji Bai. Keers eyes lost its luster as she looked at the injured Ji Bai ahead of her. She had fallen into a daze.
Thats right hahaha! Just like that! Stay there and dont move. Its been a long time since your granddaddy has thrown knives into a rabbit so let me practice! The troll laughed heartily and withdrew another dazzling sharp dagger from the pouch in its waist.
Brat dont think that your granddaddy is unaware that your team is somewhere in the surroundings looking at everything unfolding right now?? The red-haired troll shot a glance at a portion of grassy bush within the darkness as it grinned.
Wait until your granddaddy stabs and turns you into a porcupine. I shall see whether they will be able to differentiate you then! Hehehe
