Chapter 659: 211. The Art of Flipping the Table_2
In the end, when it comes to dealing with life and death duels, one must either possess overwhelming strength or have powerful connections that can put themselves in danger for their sake.
Otherwise, one should keep a low profile and not make too many enemies, lest people constantly challenge them to life and death duels.
Noland Lee is not worried about making enemies.
He has already decided that, before he becomes invincible, he will maintain the rank of a First Rank Wizard.
Only he can challenge others, and others have no say in challenging him.
Unless the Ulnas Circle changes the relevant laws…
Noland Lee leaves the City of Suman and lands in front of the visitor’s manor of Dickler Fegan using a flight spell.
He takes out the “Duel Application” and slaps it in front of the manor’s guard.
The manor guards on either side of the gate are stunned by the contents of the “Duel Application”.
Noland Lee stares at them with an indifferent gaze, saying:
“According to Law No. 1, you and the other guards in the manor are the maintainers of order in this territory. You must immediately take me to see Party B listed in the ‘Duel Application’ and verify on-site whether Party B meets the circumstances exempting them from the duel. If the ‘Duel Application’ does not reach Party B in time, I, as Party A, can take any means to settle the dispute until Party B is killed in battle.”
The manor guards look conflicted, holding the “Duel Application” and unsure how to respond to Noland Lee or whether to report the situation.
Noland Lee has no patience to deal with them.
He retrieves the Duel Application, takes a magic megaphone from his magic pouch, and shouts towards the bustling Manor Mansion:
“Everyone, pay attention! I am the Enforcement Wizard, Noland Lee Jarvis!
“According to Law No. 1, I am here to challenge the Tide Spy disguised as Butler Heramat to a life and death duel!
“I have brought the ‘Duel Application’! If the imposter Butler Heramat does not appear in front of me within a minute, I will use force to enter the manor, which is the sacred right conferred to me by Law No. 1 of the Ulnas Circle.”
The magic megaphone amplifies Noland Lee’s voice to the maximum, causing the windows and glass of the manor to vibrate slightly, even drowning out the symphony within.
A large crowd of heads peek out from behind the windows, whispering to each other, staring at the direction of the manor gate.
Several manor guards and magic servants flood out from the mansion, converging towards the source of the noise.
The symphony inside the Mansion comes to a halt, and the interior plunges into dead silence, only the sound of guards and magic servants quickly moving echoing through the Manor.
Noland Lee faces the approaching guards and magic servants, showing no panic.
He uses the magic megaphone to repeat his previous words and adds a new segment:
“I am exercising the sacred right conferred to me by Law No. 1! Anyone who obstructs me from conducting a life and death duel will be deemed an impure wizard criminal guilty of contempt for Law No. 1! As an Enforcement Wizard holding a Co-defensive Law Enforcement Wizard’s Warrant, I will punish the wizard criminals!”
Noland Lee holds up the Duel Application and the “Appointment Order” using [Mage’s Hand].
Thus, a bizarre scene takes place at the scene.
All of the manor guards stop and carefully identify the text on the “Duel Application” and “Appointment Order”.
Upon seeing Selena’s autograph on the “Appointment Order”, they uniformly turn their heads to look at the manor, their gaze falling on the two figures on the second-floor balcony.
An “Appointment Order” stops the manor guards, who should have arrested Noland Lee, in their tracks.
It is not the “Appointment Order” that protects Noland Lee, but the person who issued the “Appointment Order” serves as his support.
Please always remember that the foundation for Law No. 1 of the Ulnas Circle – also known as the Foundation Decree – is not abstract concepts like law, morality, or rules.
Its true and only foundation is the individual strength of wizards.
The Ulnas Circle’s law is not a product of economic activity; it has nothing to do with productive forces, production relations, or the distribution of resources in social production.
The Ulnas Circle’s law is the result of wizards with magical power engaging in long-term, brutal struggle against each other.
It condenses countless blood and fire and is a set of rules that various wizard forces have summed up over a long struggle that can make all parties accept it.
When the Ulnas Circle’s law cannot resolve a legal wizard’s legal request, there is only one result:
This wizard will leave the Ulnas Circle and become a Grey Wizard.
From then on, all his actions will no longer be protected by the Ulnas Circle, but at the same time, the Ulnas Circle’s laws will no longer bind his actions.
Wizards possess magic, magic is the foundation of the Ulnas Circle, and so wizards are the foundation of the Ulnas Circle.
In a broader sense, the Ulnas Circle’s law is a law that strives to retain wizards within the Ulnas Circle.
If they cannot keep the wizards, the wizards will leave the Ulnas Circle to join other magic kingdoms or empires or become wizards roaming outside the nation’s borders.
The “Appointment Order” Noland Lee holds has a legal source, proper procedures, and clear and authentic signatures.
The life and death duel application Noland Lee displays meets all the regulations set forth in Law No. 1 concerning life and death duels.
Any person who obstructs him from exercising his legal rights will be judged as an impure wizard criminal for “despising the law” and consequently be punished on the spot by Noland Lee, the Enforcement Wizard.
