Wizard of All Souls

It was close to morning.

The night is slowly receding, and the east is already pale.

On the edge of the Red Moon Forest, in the sparse woods a few kilometers away from Albert Castle, a group of people dressed as robbers were stationed there.

It's just that this group of people is strictly disciplined, wearing bright armor under dirty and tattered leather armor.

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that these robbers are pretending.

Beside the fire, two people with obviously higher status were sitting there chatting, while four strong men were waiting by the side.

One of the two men is younger, handsome, and looks to be in his mid-twenties.

The other was much older, with a strong body, dark skin, and thick calluses on his hands.

"Uncle Becky, isn't it good for us to do this?" The young man frowned.

This middle-aged man is obviously the rival of the Albert family, the knight Becky Evelyn of the Evelyn family.

"Charlie, your thinking is too naive." The middle-aged man looked at the young man disappointedly, "Those chivalry is just a trick to deceive children. This world is much crueler than you imagined."

The young man Charlie frowned, obviously not agreeing with Becky's statement.

"That's just the idea of ​​the weak escaping from themselves. Our current strength is still higher than that of the Albert family. We just need to defeat them openly." Charlie still wanted to stick to his knightly way.

Becky sighed, "That's why the Patriarch asked me to bring you here this time."

"Where did I say something wrong?" Charlie wondered.

"In terms of overall strength, we are indeed in the upper hand now. If we continue to fight, we can suppress the Albert family, and maybe we can take away their territory, but..." Becky paused, "What about ten years later? Twenty years from now?"

Charlie frowned, "We have more territories, so the resources will naturally be more abundant, and the probability of cultivating talents will be greater. The gap between us and the Albert family will only grow wider, won't it?"

"Charlie, you are the first genius of our family generation and the future heir." Becky didn't answer Charlie's question directly, "So, at what age did you become a quasi-knight?"

"Seventeen." Charlie didn't know why Becky asked knowingly.

"I only became a quasi-knight when I was nineteen years old. You are much better than me. As long as you have twenty years, your achievements will not be inferior to Baron Leo, but—" Becky was a little conflicted in his heart. Knowing whether to continue or not.

"but?"

"However, Baron Leo has two sons, born to a mistress, named Nikon, who successfully stimulated his vitality a year ago and became a quasi-knight." Becky hit Charlie.

"So what? I don't think I will lose to that guy named Nikon." Charlie objected.

"But he's only sixteen this year."

Charlie was shocked for a moment, but his face recovered quickly.

"It's just one year younger than me, which doesn't mean anything." Charlie was still very confident.

Charlie has been gifted since he was a child, taught by a famous teacher, coupled with his own hard work, his body reached the peak of a preparatory knight at the age of fifteen.

Becoming a quasi-knight only needs a little chance.

Charlie waited two years for this opportunity.

If luck is a little bit better, and he becomes a quasi-knight at the age of fifteen, Charlie also has a chance.

Moreover, the age of becoming a quasi-knight is just a manifestation of talent, and it does not mean how high or how strong one will definitely go in the future.

"Yes, we all believe that Nikon will definitely not be your opponent." Everyone in the Evelyn family is optimistic about Charlie, "but there is still one member in the Albert family."

"who?"

"The third son of Baron Leo, Will Albert, is one year younger than Nikon.

At the age of thirteen, he had already reached the peak of the preparatory knight, and his sword skills were already on par with Baron Leo. Until Nikon became a quasi-knight, Will kept fighting against Nikon.

It has been rumored until now that if Nikon does not use life force in battle, he is not Will's opponent. "Becky sighed from the heart.

"This is impossible!"

Until this moment, Charlie's complexion finally changed.

"I have been taught by three knights in turn since I was a child. Since I was five years old, I have practiced for more than sixteen hours a day, but I was only fifteen years old when I reached the peak of the preparatory knight!

Moreover, the strength of the quasi-knight is not just as simple as vitality. The physical fitness of the quasi-knight is also far stronger than that of the reserve knight. Even if the quasi-knight does not stimulate the vitality in the battle, the reserve knight cannot be the opponent!

As for sword skills comparable to Baron Leo? Nonsense! "

Charlie didn't believe in such things at all.

Charlie has always felt that his talent belongs to the most talented one.

In terms of talent, among the people I know, Baron Leo is the only one who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

Even knowing the existence of Nikon, Charlie didn't feel that Nikon could threaten him.

but now--

If Will is really as powerful as the rumors say, wouldn't the talent far surpass him?

Maybe Will will be able to touch the realm of the great knight in the future?

impossible!

Becky saw the confusion and entanglement in Charlie's heart.

Therefore, just now Becky hesitated to tell Charlie the truth.

"Remember, a genius who hasn't grown up is not a genius." Becky patted Charlie on the shoulder and said with a sinister smile.

"...how sure are you?" Charlie's eyes changed.

Charlie is much more powerful than Becky imagined.

Becky watched Charlie's changes with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "According to the news we received, Baron Leo took Neeson to Dalu Island. A few days ago, the team leader Berg, who was the peak quasi-knight, also passed away for some reason. Now In Albert Castle, there is no one who can be called a strong person.

There are thirty of us, one knight for me, four quasi-knights including you, and twenty-five reserve knights, equivalent to one-third of the strength of the family. It is enough to make a fuss in Albert Castle. "

"Aren't you going to knock down the castle?"

"Although the defense of Albert Castle is unprecedentedly weak, it is still quite strong. Even if we capture Albert Castle at a huge price, we will not be able to defend it. Therefore, the goal of our trip..."

Becky slashed with the knife in his right hand, "Weaken Baron Leo's strength, kill Will and Nikon!"

"Is there really no problem for us to directly attack a baron's castle and kill the heir to the title?" Charlie asked.

"It's normal for barons to attack and annex each other, and it's not a hereditary baron conferred by the king himself." Becky said indifferently.

There are two types of titles.

One is canonized by nobles, and the other is canonized by the king.

A courtier's courtier is not a king's courtier.

The titles conferred by the nobles are directly responsible for the nobles, not the king.

The title of Baron Leo was bestowed by the Quimper family in Moonset City. As long as you are not afraid of revenge from the Quimper family, you can deal with Baron Leo any way you want.

"Too."

Charlie adapted quickly.

Charlie has always been like this, once a decision is made, he will not hesitate to implement it.

A moment ago, Charlie felt that this action was not honest enough and violated his chivalry.

Now, Charlie is the one who most wants to kill Will.

"Uncle Becky, tell me the details of this operation again."

Some time ago, Charlie was reluctant to participate in the action meeting due to his resistance to this action, so he was very vague about the action plan and action details.

"Haha, good..." Seeing Charlie grow up, Becky was very relieved.

"Um?"

"Did it happen over there?"

"Why so noisy?"

"Go and see what happened? There can be no accidents in this operation!"

After receiving Becky's order, the four guards standing around Charlie and Becky immediately walked towards the commotion.

...

The sky is already bright.

Dawn is coming.

In Will's heart, there is only despair.

The arrows are used up, the bow is broken, the daggers are all thrown away, the medicine is gone, and even the knight's sword is full of cracks.

On Will's back, there are four claw marks with deep bone.

The bleeding from the wound has stopped, but the wound is black and festering, obviously infected, but Will has no time to deal with it.

Will's left hand was twisted and fractured, and he was unconscious.

Will was running fast through the trees.

The night-long fast battle and raid made Will's physical strength reach its limit.

But Will can't stop,

To stop is to die!

"Damn! Damn! Damn!"

The sound behind him didn't move away, it was still approaching.

"I don't want to die!" Will was anxious. "I just learned how to use the Blue Spirit system. I still have a bright future. My future is bright. How can I die here?"

However, the reality is cruel.

The shadow of death enveloped Will.

In front of Will's escape, several figures appeared faintly.

"Run! Get out of the way! Get out of the way—"

At first, Will wanted to remind those people to run away.

But those people watched Will approaching vigilantly, and even drew their weapons to threaten Will.

"die!"

At the juncture of life and death, Will made a move.

Will's sword turned into three rays of light and attacked the three people in front respectively.

On Will's right hand, a white light flashed.

With superb swordsmanship and the use of vitality, Will repelled three people at once.

Will staggered, "Using vitality is too exhausting. With my current physical condition, I will definitely collapse again."

After repelling the three people, people surrounded them again.

Will fights and moves forward.

Will grew more and more angry.

At this time, a young man who seemed to be the leader of the team came to Will.

Those who besieged Will stepped back to block Will's escape route.

"I'm Charlie, you..."

"Go to hell!"

There is no time to lose!

Will rushed at Charlie like a madman, looking like he was going to die with Charlie.

"What?" Charlie's expression changed.

Charlie didn't want to die with such a beggar-like lunatic.

Charlie dodges sideways, while the sword in his hand blocks Will's escape route.

Charlie's move was extremely subtle, not only dodged the opponent's move that wanted to die together, but also blocked the opponent's escape route.

Unexpectedly, Will's body became short, and the sword light flashed across Charlie's left leg.

"Whoa—"

Charlie screamed and lost his balance.

Will took the opportunity to pass Charlie and rushed out of the Red Moon Forest.

"Where to escape!"

A sword light chased after Will.

Becky Evelyn made a shot.
