Chapter Twenty-Six: Killing Intent

The night breeze blowing from the window by the corridor smelled of iron.

Freya knew that not far behind her was the convoy of two reserve knights following her.

"....... then, that's how I got to know my teacher, and he taught me a lot of things, and I think he taught you too, Freya." Philip's footsteps stopped abruptly and he turned to her and asked.

"......" Freya wordlessly looked at the still smiling man in front of her.

Behind him was a noticeable dent, the mark of the previous time when he was hunted down by Olysses, and the walls were made of stone bricks, so they could not be repaired.

Without answering Philip's question, Freya's cold voice echoed in the hallway for a long time.

"Lord Earl, you told me before that you wanted to introduce me to an acquaintance, I don't know who it is?"

"Oh?" Filly looked at the cold girl who had changed her shy face in surprise, and the smile that often hung on the corner of her mouth was also put away.

"I wanted to talk to you a little more, well, since you want to know, then I'll reintroduce it to you."

'Bang Bang'

With a crisp sound, a soldier in imperial uniform walked out at the corner of the corridor, dragging a black object in the soldier's hand.

Through the flickering lights below the castle, Freya could vaguely tell that it was a person, and as the soldier approached, the person who was being dragged was completely exposed to her vision.

It was Eric, who had disappeared before the ball, and under the soldier's helmet was Olisses, who had been deposed by the baron!

"How do you ......" Freya looked at the familiar face in front of her in amazement, with her understanding of the baron, she said that she would never lie to abolish Olisses, but the person in front of her...

"Hehe, I didn't expect that." Olisses threw Eric on the ground in his hand, throwing away the helmet on his head and smiling hideously.

"You didn't expect me to stand in front of you perfectly, slut, if it weren't for you!! How could I...!! ”

A vicious roar echoed through the hallway, causing Philip, who was standing next to him, to frown slightly.

"Shut up, Olysses! I rescued you and brought you here to listen to you talk this nonsense. Hurry up and finish what I promised you, or it will affect my plans..."

Ulices was visibly frightened by Philip's reprimand, and after taking a deep look at Freya, he slowly drew the long sword at his waist.

"Now pay for my pain!" With a roar of rage, the sword in Olysses' hand quickly slashed at her.

'Uhla'

The sharp sword splashed a spark where it touched the stone bricks in the hallway, and there was an inexplicable hideous look on his face.

In front of her, Freya stood there quietly, as if she was scared silly.

'Ding'

Half a meter away from Freya, a broad giant sword stretched out from the darkness, and its tremendous strength easily blocked Olysses' attack.

Dressed in black armor, the burly deputy captain of the Guard, Damstin, and another member of the Guard, stepped out from behind Freya.

"Miss, leave it to us here, the Baron's side has already made preparations, it is very dangerous here, please come over, Miss." Darmsteen said coldly as he stared at Olisses, who was separated from him.

"But... Eric. Freya hesitated.

Philip, who had been standing in place, suddenly took a step, reached out and grabbed Olysses' sword in an instant and threw him behind him.

"Waste is waste!" The cold voice had a commanding tone, and Philip shook the long sword in his hand and said, "Freya, do you want to leave before I finish introducing you?" Originally, I didn't plan to kill you, after all, the teacher really saved my life, and if you want to blame it, you can blame the position in your territory that is too punctual! ”

'Snort'

Sparks fly.

'Bell! ’

The cold silver light swept through in an instant, but it was blocked by Damstin and another guard.

Unlike Olisses's slash, although the brutal power was blocked, the two of them were instantly smashed by the long sword and retreated a few steps.

In the faint light, Freya saw a trace of blood spilling from the corners of their mouths.

"Humph! Just a knight in reserve..."

Philip looked down at the two people in front of him, and the long sword in his hand was raised again.

"Ahh

The two, who had already suffered some internal injuries, watched Philip attack again, and roared angrily and pounced on him.

The greatsword in Damsteen's hand was extremely powerful, but every attack was easily blocked by Philip, and the other guard was even more unbearable and could not intervene in the battle between the two at all, so he could only wield the cross sword in his hand as a self-protection.

Bell bell ...

A coherent slash erupted in a small hallway.

At first, the two of them had been actively attacking, but as time went on, Philip also slashed a sword after an orderly block, but it was such a casual sword that the two had to resist with all their strength.

While parrying the attack, Philip suddenly slashed hard, then turned and used the power of the spin to pick up.

'Bang! ’

Under the tremendous force, the two of them flew upside down in an instant.

The two of them, who had already suffered some internal injuries before, immediately spurted out a mouthful of blood.

And Damsteen's greatsword was already full of gaps, which he had bought from a hard-fought battle with Philip.

The powerful body is almost fancy, and the two elite guards are knocked into the air with one blow, which is the power of a true knight.

Slightly flicking his sword and not continuing the pursuit, Philip looked down at the two people leaning against the wall.

"If you give me some more time, maybe you can fight with me, but now you are by no means my opponent, how about it, are you interested in working under me, you must know that I am an earl, and I am more likely to be the eldest prince in the future... If you follow me..."

The low words reached the ears of everyone present, but they didn't expect Philip to see the potential of Damsteen and raise his love for talents.

"What do you want?" Freya looked at the heroic man in front of her with cold eyes, and the words he said obviously had something else.

"What do I want?" Philip sneered at the girl standing behind him, raised his eyebrows and said.

"Well, since it's here, then it's okay to sue you, here, today, is the beginning of my Saladin Empire's recovery of Byron! Do you see the night over there? ”

He watched as Freya suddenly pointed out the corridor window into the distance, and his voice trembled with excitement.

"In a few moments, there will be a dazzling fireworks there, and then your Castle Green will be razed to the ground overnight, and this ball will be the last party I will have for you!"
