The twilight forest has become more lively than ever.

For the inhabitants of this place, it was not just a few more mercenaries, a few days ago, a series of magnificent carriages drove into the otherwise quiet and elegant city, breaking the usual atmosphere of peace. And those refugees born in Orrut are not as familiar with these signs as the locals, but looking at the gold-rimmed carriages and the old men in tuxedos who stride around with their hands high, everyone knows that these people must be unusual.

What's going on here?

"Honestly, I feel like it's the stupidest decision I've ever made in my life. ”

Sitting on the rough wooden chair, Yulian turned the glass in his hand and complained in a low voice while calmly. He looked at the lively street scene outside the window around him, and his face was gloomy. At the moment, there were quite a few noble ladies and young nobles walking there, judging from their expressions, these people were obviously very curious about this place, although from the lord's point of view, Yulian should be happy, but now in the depths of his heart, there was a nameless fire bubbling inexplicably, and even Yulian himself did not know where this nameless fire came from.

"Great, sir, I think............ It's good, it's very lively..............."

Hearing the lord's complaint, little Irene, who was nervously standing behind him, opened her mouth and stammered. These days are the busiest days in the Twilight Forest. Charlotte was in charge of preparing for the upcoming reception, and Ofariel naturally had to prepare the details of the invitations to the nobles. Judy has already begun to lead those mercenaries in the first phase of training according to Yulian's orders, leaving early and returning late every day, although I don't know what they are doing, but looking at the expressions of those mercenaries who are "eager to die", I know that this is definitely not something that ordinary people can easily handle. For safety, Messia and Semya go to the underground cavern to guard the source. This made Yuren's side unable to find anyone to follow him for a while, although Yuren himself felt that it didn't matter, but Ofariel obviously didn't see it that way.

"Your current status is a lord, as long as you don't go to battle, I suggest that it is better for you to follow a few people around you, after all, this is the face of a nobleman. ”

Since O'Faryl said so, Yuren was no longer polite, and directly mentioned Erin beside her, and then took the little one to a tavern in Valhalla to drink alcohol.

"Lively, lively, what I hate the most is lively. Look outside, a big bunch of roosters, hens, chicks, it's like a chicken farm!"

Yulian waved his hand, obviously unhappy with this. He naturally thought that after his invitation was issued, many nobles would try to have a relationship with him. But I didn't expect these guys to be so enthusiastic, and before the time for the party to start, many nobles had already come to visit in advance. Of course, Yulian didn't mean to meet them, so he pushed all these boring things to O'Faryl, and then a golden cicada came out of his shell.

In the face of these nobles, Yulian originally planned to turn them away on the grounds that the castle had not yet been renovated, and at least let these guys go home obediently. However, he didn't expect these nobles to be more difficult than he imagined, and in the face of these excuses that Yulian found, many nobles said that they could stay in Valhalla for a while longer. Now Valhalla can be said to be a small sparrow, but it has all five bellies. Although there are only about 1,000 residents, there are many taverns and inns. Moreover, many aristocrats have actually wanted to take a closer look at this beautiful city for a long time, after all, its appearance completely subverts the imagination of many people. When they heard that there was a city in the Twilight Forest, many nobles thought that it was just a simple city, after all, the Twilight Forest was a remote place, and these nobles were all local snakes, and if there was any large-scale construction or transfer at the moment, they could not have not received a report. So these nobles didn't originally have Valhalla in their eyes.

However, when the Valhalla City appeared in front of them, almost everyone immediately changed their opinion, and this mysterious city attracted the attention of the nobles in the first place. Dense forests, mountains, cool springs, and quiet, serene streets, with Gothic architecture that they had almost never seen before, opened the eyes of these aristocrats.

It's not a humble city at all, but a beautiful city!

Originally, the nobles were still hesitant to report to the host first, after all, if they reported to the host, then as a courtesy of the guests, they would not be able to visit the city at will. However, Yulian's procrastination gave these nobles a good excuse, since the host was inconvenient, then they, the guests, did not need to be in such a hurry to disturb...... Therefore, a visit to the city first became the best choice for the aristocracy.

“...............”

Looking at Yulian, who was lazily complaining, little Irene looked at him timidly and shrunk her shoulders, but did not answer. Although in the days with O'Fariel, she has gradually gained the consciousness of a maid, and with Charlotte and others as examples, she has also learned some things very well. But her fear of Yulian has not changed, after all, she was originally just a poor little girl, and she has never seen those high-ranking big people. Offariel was strict and gentle with her, but the young lord was a bit unpredictable. Although he is also very polite, and often has a smile that makes people feel comfortable to look at, but for some reason, little Irene feels that this young lord is a little scary. But if she had to say what was terrible, she couldn't say.

"I wish this boring party would be over sooner. ”

Julien finished the gin from his glass, then placed it on the table, he looked up, and then looked out the window again, but this time, he didn't show that impatient expression again. Although the street outside the window still shows a beautiful, elegant scenery and a quiet atmosphere, this time, in the originally quiet atmosphere, there is a little noise.

"What the hell?"

Yuren frowned, stood up, tossed a gold coin, and then turned and walked out of the tavern.

"My lord, the ......... Haven't found any money yet........."

Little Erin looked at the gold coins on the table in embarrassment, and whispered to remind Yulian of a few words, but before she could finish her words, Yulian's figure had already disappeared from the tavern.

Walking out of the tavern, Yulian didn't look out of it, but found the problem, next to a restaurant around the square, there were a lot of people around, and it was from there that the noise came from. Judging by the loud quarrel, it was clear that there was a lot of quarrel going on inside. This made You Lian frown quite unpleasantly, hell, this is his territory, this group of damn guys running in like a group of cats is enough to be unbearable, and now they dare to quarrel here, do they regard this place as a bullring?

Thinking of this, Yulian's face immediately sank, and then, he walked towards the center of the noise.

"What are you!?"

Just as Yulian walked to the periphery of the crowd, a young, arrogant voice rang out.

"Don't think that an apology is the end of this matter! Got it? I'll tell you, I'm .........."

Looking through the gap in the crowd, Yulian quickly saw that it was a young man who spoke, he was dressed in a somewhat ornate aristocratic outfit, and the brightly colored style did not look too much like something popular among the Westist aristocracy. At this moment, the young man was brandishing a black cane, and he was scolding angrily. Opposite him was a boy dressed as a waiter, who was bowing his head red, clenching his teeth, trying to say something, but unable to say anything. And beside him stood an old man, who looked like the boss of the place, who was smiling and nodding his head. The surrounding onlookers had different faces. The commoners were obviously angry about this, but the other party's dress showed that he was a nobleman, and it was impossible for ordinary commoners to go against nobles. As for the other nobles, although they were also watching, they were clearly distancing themselves a little, and, judging by their expressions, they all seemed to have a little respect for the noisy young man.

"Dear sir, we apologize to you, it is indeed our wrong........."

The old man smiled and spoke, he lowered his head and bent his waist.

"However, we really didn't mean to, this young man just touched you, he definitely didn't want to steal from you!"

"I don't believe it! You poor devils, you must be trying to steal my things! Moreover, your dirty hands have stained my clothes, this is a high-class goods! You must pay compensation!"

"Of course, of course, how much ............?"

Although the young man's speech was very aggressive, the old man seemed to have made up his mind not to cause more trouble, and he still responded with a smile.

"How much?"

Hearing the old man's inquiry, the young man sneered.

"Fifty thousand gold coins!"

"Five ........."

Hearing this, the old man's face changed, and he immediately turned as pale as ice.

"You're a bit of a bully!

Seeing that the other party obviously didn't intend to let himself go, the old man's words also hardened.

"Holy grace is above, we just touched you once, and we didn't stain your clothes, but you asked for 50,000 gold coins when you opened your mouth, you are clearly blackmailing!"

"You inferior people touching my clothes are defiled!"

The young man snorted coldly, then rolled his eyes, and then showed a smug smile.

"Seeing that you poor guys can't pay 50,000 gold coins, so let's let that guy cut off his right hand, then I don't have to pursue this matter!"

"Fuck your stinky fart!"

As soon as he heard this, the young man, who was still silent, immediately jumped up.

"What are you! You want my hand? Okay, come on! Take it yourself, see that I don't kill you! It's just a little white face, what's the big deal!"

"Ray, Ressa!"

Seeing his waiter's face change suddenly, the old man was also taken aback, and he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the young man tightly.

"Don't be impulsive, he's a nobleman!"

"What about the nobles? People are reasonable! This is the [***] law, this is the city of the Immortal, this is the territory of Lord Yuren, what kind of thing is this guy?"

"Look for death!"

Hearing this, the young nobleman's face also sank, he suddenly pulled out the long sword at his waist, and when he saw the other party show his weapon, the surrounding onlookers also hurriedly retreated. Even the nobles who were watching from a distance frowned dissatisfiedly at this moment. The so-called aristocracy must have the dignity of a nobleman, and it is a shame to be a nobleman to deal with a mere commoner, and now he is still showing his weapons. But even so, these nobles didn't say much, they were all old slippery heads, so naturally they wouldn't go up and put themselves on the cusp of the storm at such a time. And it is disdainful, after all, the other party is a commoner, and it will not bring any benefits to himself, as a nobleman, it is not a thing to boast about to force his head to the commoner.

Just when the young nobleman was about to step forward to teach this inferior person who didn't know what to do, suddenly, a cold sword wind flew past his nose, forcing the young nobleman to stop.

"Who?!"

In the face of the attack in front of him, the young nobleman's reaction was not slow, he immediately jumped backwards, and then looked vigilantly in the direction where the sword wind was flying. And then, he saw Yuren's figure, he still had the same elegant smile, the difference was that the right hand that was originally hanging down at his side was now pressed on the hilt of the sword behind him.

Judy brought the mercenaries to the training, and the patrolling garrison had not yet appeared, so in the face of such a situation, Yulian had to take action himself - otherwise, it would not be a loss of face to let a foreign nobleman be so arrogant on his own territory?

"Isn't it not afraid of losing the glory of nobility if you make such noise in the streets?"

Yuren's smile was gentle and comforting, but the words he said were completely merciless.

"Sir, though I don't know which family you belong to, I think you may need to brush up on etiquette. If you don't have a suitable person around, I can recommend a teacher for you, although the fee is a bit high, but I think it will be worth the money for you. ”

"Hahaha........."

Hearing Youlian's implicit sarcastic words, the surrounding aristocrats couldn't help but chuckle. They had already looked at this young fellow as unpleasant, and now that someone was willing to stand up and speak for them, it was naturally unwelcome for the nobles - provided that it was not their people.

"What are you, how dare you speak to me like that?"

The young nobleman swept Yulian away, his face furious.

"What qualifications do you have to teach me a lesson?"

"It's just a suggestion, a suggestion. ”

Yulian spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders.

"I don't think that's a loss to you, isn't it?sir, for your sake, I advise you to turn away for now, for everyone's good. ”

"Are you threatening me?"

The young nobleman apparently did not intend to accept Yuren's "advice", on the contrary, he took a few steps in the direction of Yuren with his long sword.

"That's what I'm going to say, West, get out of here now, and don't let me see your disgusting, tasteless face again, and that's good for you, understand?"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, You Lian raised his brows and revealed a mysterious smile. And at this moment, a crisp voice suddenly sounded, breaking the tense atmosphere on the field.

"So you're here, my lord!"

With these words, little Irene squeezed into the crowd with difficulty holding the hem of her skirt, she quickly ran to Yulian's side, and then panted and stretched out her tight right hand. "Great, my lord, this is the money I asked for you......... You forgot to take ............"

"Oh?"

Looking at the dozen or so silver coins in Little Erin's hand, Yu Lian was stunned, he didn't care about these. In fact, although Yulian knew that the bottle of gin, which was not of great quality, was not worth a gold coin, the change was not a particular concern to him. But Yulian didn't expect that little Irene took this matter so seriously. He looked at the anxious, innocent face of the little girl, but he didn't quite understand her thoughts.

And it was this moment of distraction, but it seemed to make the young nobleman see an opportunity.

"Die!"

When Yulian reacted, the long sword in the young nobleman's hand had turned into a bright brilliance and slashed straight towards him.

The young nobleman was immediately in a much better mood at the first blow, and he looked at the annoying fellow in front of him with a smug smile, and he could almost see the frightened expression of the other, and he was waiting for the unwilling screams, and the frightened begging for mercy - until a great force suddenly appeared, and it was worthy of striking him from the side.

The young nobleman didn't have time to hold the weapon in his hand, the huge force was as rough and savage as a rampaging beast, he only felt a numbness in his hands, and then the sharp sword in his hand flew far sideways and landed on the ground next to him. He didn't see anything, if the only thing he saw, it was that the young nobleman seemed to see a straight black line at the moment when his sword was blown away............ That's it.

Then, he felt a chill over his left shoulder.

The young nobleman did not realize what was happening for the first time, until the people around him screamed and pointed to his body, and he looked at his shoulder with a hint of confusion, and then, his eyes widened in surprise, and he stared in disbelief at the scene before him—blood was pouring out of the narrow wound in his shoulder, and gradually staining the clothes that had been made and claimed to be worth fifty thousand gold coins.

"Ahh!!h

The young nobleman no longer had the swagger he had before, he covered his wounds, and stepped back with a pale face, staring around in horror. With his shouting, there was a sudden stirring in the crowd, and then several strong and burly men rushed out of the crowd and came to the young nobleman.

"Temple...... Your Excellency, are you all right, sir, who hurt you!?"

"It's him, it's him!!"

The young nobleman covered his wound with one hand, and pointed at Yulian with a pale face, although he was a little stunned, but he didn't seem stupid. Although he didn't see exactly what was going on in his body, the young nobleman was sure that it had something to do with the sinister bastard in front of him.

"Kill him, kill him for me now!"

Hearing this, the men's expressions were a little strange, they frowned, looked at Yuren, then gritted their teeth, and then, like a beast, rushed towards Yulian.

"Your Excellency!"

Seeing these men rushing towards Yulian viciously, little Erin couldn't help but nervously pull the corner of Yulian's clothes, wanting to leave here with her master. However, Yulian just patted her on the head, and then took her behind him.

"Nothing to worry about. ”

Just as Yulian turned his head and comforted little Erin in a low voice, the few men who rushed in front of him were already shouting, swept out the long sword in their hands, and attacked Yulian's body.

In the eyes of these men, the young man in front of him has nothing to fear at all, his standing posture and body style, none of them meet the standards of a martial artist, even if he has practiced some swordsmanship, I am afraid that he will not be so powerful. And when he went all out, he took advantage of the other party's distraction, and the result was naturally self-evident.

However, in the face of their attacks, Yulian only lowered his head sideways, still maintaining the posture of talking to Erin. The only difference was that his right hand, which had originally held the hilt of the sword, suddenly gently pulled out a piece of the sword, and then forcefully withdrew it into the sheath. At the moment when the sword collided with the scabbard, a black line that was almost nonexistent suddenly appeared between Yu Lian and several men.

"Dingding!!"

With a few crisp sounds, the long swords in the hands of several men had been cut off by the waist, and they themselves were swept up by a huge force, and then thrown back heavily.

"Wooh!!"

With several screams, these unlucky fellows all fell to the ground hard, and looking at their sad faces, they couldn't get up.

"If there is a master, there must be a dog, and the master likes to sneak attack, and you dogs are no exception. ”

Only then did Yuren turn his head, and he tapped Erin on the shoulder, motioning for her to stay here. Then, with his usual smile, Yulian walked up to the young nobleman, staring at his pale, sweaty, iron-blue face.

"I don't know who you are, but ......... If you want to cause trouble on my turf, I have to say, you are in the wrong place, sir. And at a ...... cost But it's serious. ”
