Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Fallen

"I'm also a high-ranking paladin!" Bye roared, anger burning in his eyes, "I command you, catch this traitor!"

Fili quickly drew his sword to block, grinning nonchalantly, "But I'm older than you." I have to warn you, mad boy, to accuse your fellow of being a traitor or a degenerate without any hard proof...... That's a pretty serious accusation. Not to mention drawing a sword against the elderly......"

His mouth didn't stop for a moment, and so did Baie's attacks. Fili didn't have an easy time coping, but he finally shut up and single-mindedly dealt with his companion who had already treated him as an enemy.

A young paladin took a step forward.

"Two ...... He hesitated, and cried out weakly, "The goddess is above......!"

"Yes, that's it!cut off his left leg!" Tess screamed in glee, completely overpowering his voice.

Almost all of the remaining paladins and priests glared at her.

Naria held back a smile and gently pulled Tess by the hand, and on top of her head, Iss smacked his nostrils contemptuously and spewed a cloud of snowflakes.

Stupid human ...... Stupid and hypocritical.

But it couldn't get rid of another thought -- if Scott was here...... Will he fight for it, or will he raise his sword at it? .

Under the moonlight, the sound of the clash of long swords was almost pleasant.

Fili Zeri looked like a big grin, but every blow was very steady. He didn't want to hurt Baie - and certainly didn't want to be hurt by Baie.

He also knew that the other paladins would not be able to help either side. He'll have to take care of it himself.

Aside from him and Baie, the rest of the companions were too young, and this was almost their first mission...... Also messed up by him.

But he didn't apologize much. It was a hellish mission, and he should have run as far as Shaun Fletcher and Alan Caver could get to him before they took turns finding him.

Beye's lips were tightly closed, his face distorted and stiff, and his black eyes seemed to be bottomless.

- He was a very handsome young man. Although I am a little proud.

Filly thought with a little regret.

Witnessing the tragic death of his twin brother made Baie almost completely a different person. He was paranoid and suspicious, and there was nothing else in his eyes but the ice dragon.

That kind of obsession that borders on madness is understandable...... For a paladin, it is also dangerous.

Filly remembered the tone in Sean's voice as he gave him the task.

"You go with Baie Young. The old man, who seemed to be made of steel and was forever expressionless, said, "Be careful." ”

He wisely didn't say what to ask Fili to pay attention to......

Fili sideways to block Beye's swift blow, and for the first time in the day he wanted to sigh.

The young imps thought that Sean Fletcher had only one tone, cold, resolute, and unquestionable. And an old guy like Filly can sort out something.

Baie Young probably did something not very authentic, but the old man had no evidence. And any questioning of a paladin is quite a serious accusation...... Although Beye did not hesitate to accuse him.

Fili lunged forward, almost crashing into Baie's arms, and the sword stabbed into the flaws of his agile but impatient opponent like a snake, but Baie didn't seem to care at all that he might be seriously injured, and slashed back at Fili's neck without flinching.

"Hey!" Fili shouted, narrowly dodging it, the chill on the blade still on his skin, causing a shiver.

Bye Young...... Are you really crazy?!"

But all that answered him was the whistling of the sword breaking through the air.

Baie really wanted to kill him—realizing this, Fili's face finally became angry.

He swung his sword and fought back, using all his strength in a rage. A bright spark burst out, accompanied by a crisp sound.

-- The sound is not quite right.

Philip instinctively stepped back. Under the moonlight, the long sword in Baie's hand shattered into thousands of pieces in an instant, and scattered in all directions.

An irrepressible exclamation rang out in the snow.

Bye stood there with the sword in his hand, his eyes wide open with indescribable shock.

“...... What did you do?" he whispered to Fili over and over again, "What did you do?"

Then the sound grew louder and louder.

"What the hell have you done!" he roared with unbelievable despair and fear.

"How do I know!" Fili yelled at him, and for a moment he was a little dazed, "It's your sword that breaks...... What the hell did you do?!"

He had heard of it, but he had never seen it with his own eyes.

The paladin's sword is forged with the blessing of the goddess. It may not be an endless weapon, but it represents the loyalty and honor of knights. Under no circumstances could it shatter in battle like this, unless the sword-bearer broke his oath before God.

Oath Breaker...... Fallen Knight - The most terrible punishment and the most desperate end for every paladin, a shame that even death cannot shake.

For a man as proud as Baie, he might have preferred to die by Fili's sword.

Filly couldn't help but take a step back, a hint of sympathy flashing in his eyes: "Bye Young...... What the hell did you do?"

As if frozen there, Baie suddenly let out a desperate and furious roar, which barely sounded like a human. He threw Fili down and turned and rushed frantically towards the ice dragon, the hatred in his eyes like an invisible blade, making both Naria and Tess unable to help but retreat.

Akan lowered his head and rushed towards Baie like a brute bull, directly blocking the small half of the long sword with his muscular tangled arms, slamming his head against the opponent's head, and when Baie staggered back due to dizziness, he grabbed Baie's waist and easily lifted it into the air and threw it hard.

Baie slid far away in the snow, and as he struggled to get up, Akan pounced again, crushing his entire body firmly underneath him, no matter how much Baie cursed and struggled.

Fili was stunned for a moment before shaking his head, and walked over and half-knelt beside Baie.

"Listen. He tried to keep his tone as relaxed and casual as usual, but apparently failed.

He felt bitter in his mouth. He didn't expect it...... I don't want this to happen at all.

"Let's make a deal," he said, "you promise not to struggle, not to run away, and we'll go back to Collins together, Shaun...... The Sage will make this clear, and you will still be our companion no matter what......"

Enraged, Baie spat in his face, roaring like a wounded beast.

"Crazy boy......" Fei wiped the saliva from her face with her shoulder, and muttered, "You don't give me a choice." ”

He reversed his sword, and the hilt struck Beye's head firmly.
