Chapter 44: The Powerful Lord

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Well, is there any misunderstanding between us?” Darius was a talented Noble who could recognize current trends. According to the difference in the number of people between the two parties, he quickly calculated the consequences of the battle between the two sides…

That was.

He was doomed.

“Misunderstanding, what misunderstanding?” William sneered. As a Legendary Boss, and with a group of men with him, there must be a plot when bullying people.

Darius coughed awkwardly. “I’m the Viscount of Black Rock Duchy and my father is the Count. I don’t know how I have annoyed the Lord. Please forgive me.”

As they spoke, Darius knew that William should be the new Elf from the border town.

When he spoke, there was a sense of pride on his face and every time he spoke of his father’s title, he had a sense of pride.

When talking about family background, most people were not his rivals. In his heart, he thought that as long as there was a little fear in this new lord, he would be able to go back alive.

After all, he really did not regard William as a killer.

It was impossible for all these people to be killers, right?

Are you kidding me? Do you think I’m stupid?

Darius thought that he had entered their territory by mistake, which had caused the Elves’ irritation, and there should be no fatal crisis.

“Oh, that’s why you killed my pet lightning wolf?” William was not interested in competing with him about family background. He was afraid it would scare him to death.

Then, William pointed to the body of the lightning wolf sadly. “Look, look at how my pet wolf was shot by you and you’re still stepping on his body. Lift your feet quickly. The fur’s trampled by you and can’t be sold…

“Tell me, how are you going to compensate me for killing my pet?”

“…”

Darius raised his feet and his mouth twitched. He had seen shameless people but had never seen such a shameless fellow. He could only take a purple gem from his arms. “This is power..”

“Throw it over, I’ll see it for myself.” William interrupted Darius.

Swish.

William reached for it, glanced at it, and his expression became slightly happier as he took it into his arms.

Darius was also equally pleased.

He found that William was staring at him again like a wolf who was staring at a white rabbit!

His intention was clear.

It was not enough.

If he did not give him money, this greedy Elf would kill him!

Darius and his four guards looked at one another and took out another thing resolutely. After all, as the Count’s eldest son, he had a lot of treasure with him.

Therefore…

After throwing lots of treasure, Darius had nothing left except for his weapons and equipment.

William pouted. “So poor!”

“Please let us go, Lord. If I go back, I will surely bring you enough gifts!” Darius smiled, his eyes sincere.

“Ha, scum, pervert. Do you think you can still live after killing my pet? Kill them.” William was too lazy to care about them and waved his hand lightly.

All the Elves stood up immediately and drew their bows.

“You despicable Elf, my father will avenge me. Damn it!!” Darius shouted angrily and the battle energy from the bodyguards beside him burst out.

“Whiz, whiz, whiz, whiz, whiz…”

Hundreds of arrows full of battle energy flew out and the moment they hit the battle energy shield, the sounds of an explosion came and the light was dazzling.

For a moment, the trees around were torn apart by the battle energy and the grass was full of ravines.

“Charge!” Darius could clearly feel the battle energy in his body falling madly. He was a middle-level professional and his battle energy value was no less than double of those beginner-level professionals.

Even with that, Darius, being in the middle of the crowd and only hit by a few arrows, knew that he would not be able to defend for a long time.

But before he could say anything Lautner slowly stood up, took off the golden bow behind him, flicked the bowstring, took an arrow and drew the bow!

Swish.

A dazzling silver light, like lightning, shot pass the sky and the people could see the air behind the arrow!

Subsequently.

The silver light penetrated many enemies in a flash. It also pierced through Darius’s head and the moment he touched the ground…

Bang…

The battle energy contained in the silver light exploded instantly.

Everyone was lifted off their feet.

Lautner, who was also a middle-level professional, was ten levels higher than Darius, and his bloodline was too strong. Let alone Darius, even if they combined forces, they were not a match for Lautner.

When William saw this, he jumped down from the tree and walked towards the many corpses. He could not help grinning. “Tsk, you all fell before I could do anything. Too weak.”

“Our Lord is powerful.” Nox raised his weapon to suck up to him as if it was William who had killed them.

“Our Lord is powerful,” the Elves said.

“Bah, I was the one who killed them. A group of shameless people.” Lautner swore.

But, the next second, Lautner raised his weapon and shouted, “Our Lord is powerful and domineering. As soon as your aura was released, they all fell. Your strength is terrifying!”

The group of Elves nodded thoughtfully and suddenly realized that this was the reason why they were not executives…

William only smiled slightly and had no pride in his heart. After all, what they said was good. But ordinary people really did not understand how invincible loneliness felt.

He then pointed to the equipment on the corpses. “Take it off and bring it back to remelt and build again.”

“Yes, my Lord!”

“Oh yes, my… pet wolf. Take it back to stew and eat the meat to nourish your bodies.”

“Our Lord is really the son of glory. May the Gods bless you forever.” A group of Elves looked at William with grins. They had to say, this Lord was really good.

Every time he led them to clean up the crisis near the territory, he would give those magical beasts to them.

This lightning wolf did not have injuries and could be sold for at least hundreds of gold coins after its fur was completely removed.

Now that this 150 kg magical beast was theirs, the meat could be divided among themselves, the soup drank by everyone and the fur would naturally be used to make armor.

According to the status of the guards, they could even get some mythril. When the time came, they would have silver inner armor. If they could find Odom or Lautner to do it and add some precious materials, a gold inner armor might appear.

It was up to them to decide who the inner armor would belong to.

Anyway, according to their feelings, now that they were living well following the Lord, they were not afraid that there were no better things…

“Unconsciously, these guys have greatly improved their liking for me.” William sighed and shook his head. The loyalty of subordinates to the Lord was related to the probability of betrayal and escape.

But the level of good impression was very different from this. This was related to whether they would block arrows for him…

During this period of time, he had brushed up the good impression of the three cubs in the morning, the Elves in the afternoon and Sia at night…

No, it was enough to exchange magic with Sia at night. He could not get any good impression from her.

“Get rid of all their bodies. Since we’re out, we can look around and return home after killing some magical beasts.” William carefully checked the number of corpses. They were all lying neatly without any missing.

He did not care who Count Darius’s father was.

It was said that half of a duchy’s forces were concentrated in the hands of nobles.

But the real deterrent to William should at least be a Marquis. A mere Count would not benighted enough in his eyes, especially a Count from the duchy…

He had 500 Elf guards with him and ordinary nobles dared not do anything to him.

Besides, there was no need to worry about the disclosure of this matter. As long as Curry wanted to inherit the title of the Count, he would hide it.

The most important thing was that Black Rock Duchy had no time to pay attention to the life and death of a Viscount. The Iron Duchy had issued an iron ban order and seemed to be sending out troops. Their main focus was on the military dynamics of the Iron Duchy.

“My Lord, I’ve found something good!”

“What?” William raised his eyebrows and looked at the excited Elf.

“Magic herbs!”
