Passerby Villain In A Wizard World

Chapter 44 Cold Blooded

Of course, it would take some time, and many soldiers might die, but it was none of his concern.

'Bastard!'

Seeing that Adrian only ordered one guard with the lower realm to help, Thomas cursed but could only swallow his anger.

After another Knight joined the battle, Morgrave became visibly pressed and began to defend instead of attacking.

Although he was proficient in killing skills, it would take some time for even him to kill another person of the same realm.

Now, with the addition of another one, his situation became quite passive.

"Clang!"

"Swish!"

Back and forth, the Knight battle was going on, while in the background, the number of soldiers had already dropped to less than a thousand.

"Let's end this battle fast."

Thomas was already getting anxious and began to attack strongly to conclude this battle so that he could at least save some brethren.

"Clang!"

"Swish!"

Morgrave was having a hard time parrying the attack from both of them, as his body was already full of small injuries.

After seeing that the opponents were attacking even more strongly, his cold eyes flashed, and he made a daring decision.

You know, although he was a captain, he was also a death squad trained from childhood. There was no fear of death in his eyes.

"Tuchha...."

Suddenly, after seeing the opening in Thomas's posture, he ignored the sword swiping toward his back from the black-clothed guy and punctured his abdomen ruthlessly.

"Ugh...."

Thomas never thought that this guy would ignore his defense and kill him suddenly; he was seriously injured as a result.

"Impudent!"

The black-clothed guard was enraged, seeing him blatantly ignoring his attack and poured even more life energy from his seed, trying to decapitate him in one stroke.

"Swish!"

However, before his attack came, a streak of sword light flashed, and he saw his own body brandishing the sword at a weird angle.

His head was severed.

Everything happened so fast that nobody had time to do anything.

"Tch, these rats are getting more and more disgusting."

A discordant voice along with a figure in black cloth and mask walked slowly, killing all the soldiers along the way.

Wherever he went, everyone's heads were severed.

"Morgrave, capture him alive."

After giving the order to him, Ian lightly stomped on the ground and made a beeline toward Second Prince Adrian.

He already knew that the remaining guard was at the Tier 3 High Knight realm. So, he was going to fight this battle himself and kill them both.

As he said, everyone would die, even if he was the prince of this Empire, he would also die.

"Streak!"

As his sword swiped across, a dazzling light streaked through, aiming to behead the two people in dark clothes.

"Damn!"

Adrian hurriedly dodged the light while his remaining guard quickly used his sword to deflect it.

"Swhah..."

Even the deflected sword light cut the small waterfall behind into two, showing the cave underneath.

"Well, it is indeed powerful enough."

Ian was very satisfied with this move. After condensing the Life Seed, a High Knight could use his weapon to extend the power using the Life energy.

Even using this normal sword, he could show such a strong power; he was already satisfied.

Just as he was about to continue to attack, Adrian came back to his senses and hurriedly began to persuade.

"Your Excellency, there is no need for us to fight to the death. I don't care about you killing one of the guards or Thomas."

"How about you allow us to go, and we forget this grudge here? After all, if we fight with all we have, both sides' injury or death is inevitable."

After seeing the fighting power of the opponent, Adrian quickly made a decisive decision and sold out Thomas immediately.

A wise man never stands in danger. He knew this well. So, he quickly made a decision.

However, Ian didn't care about his point of view.

By now, he knew that the person standing in front of him was the Second Prince Adrian Ashford.

So, now even if he gave him something lucrative, he had to kill him to prevent issues.

As for being equal in power, Ian scoffed and made a beeline with even more speed than before.

"Bastard!"

Seeing their fighting figures, Adrian cursed in anger. After thinking for a while, he finally made a decision and ordered his remaining old guard,

"Kill him, don't care about your injuries. I will give you a portion of Soul Gem Dust afterward if you can kill him."

He also knew the stakes and immediately made the lucrative offer, although he was bleeding inside.

"Soul Gem Dust...? Thank you, Your Highness. Don't worry, this old man will complete your order."

The old man got visibly excited since Soul Gem Dust could help a Knight advance to the Grand Knight realm. It was a catalyst developed by Wizard research that could be used to prepare the secret recipe.

He was already old, and if he didn't seek promotion, he would be dead in a few decades. Who wants to die if there is a chance?

However, just when he was gearing up and parrying Ian's increasingly bold attack, he heard a soft voice right next to his ears inexplicably.

"Oh? Do you have Soul Gem Dust? I also want some."

"Clang!"

Along with this young voice, suddenly, he heard a shrieking voice from behind and instinctively placed the sword at the back of his neck.

"Plop!"

However, this time something incredible happened. Instead of stopping the attack like before, his long sword got split into two, cleanly in the middle.

"Ugh..."

Before he could figure out what happened, his head rolled to the ground and he died with his eyes wide open.

"Damn! Spellblade is indeed awesome. Even a basic artifact is this strong."

Ian looked at the blade in his other hand, which was sizzling with his life energy and mental power, and looked as if it had just emerged from the flames of a blacksmith's forge.

"You... you are a Wizard?"
