Chapter 374: Visitors to the Manor (12)

The young nobles stepped back in Leon's footsteps, and soon, they gathered together behind Cork, their eyes revealing that they were overwhelmed and unable to speak.

Only the female guard stood at the forefront, blocking Leon's direction.

"Stop!" the female guard said again, biting her lip, but the young man still walked straight indifferently, although his face was expressionless, but it brought a rather strong sense of oppression to the female guard.

She swallowed her saliva, and suddenly said, "Buzz, get Master Cork out of here, I'll stop him!"

“...... Block me?"

Because of these words, Leon looked at the female guard not far away for the first time, and found that she was very young, she looked a year or two older than Caterina, and although her delicate face was a little pale, she still insisted on taking half a step.

"You're just a remote professional, and I'm sure you know what happens if you're approached by me, and you want to stop me like that?" the young man said coldly.

The female guard's eyes were a little flustered for a while, but they were fleeting, and soon their eyes became firm again.

"Hilarily, kill him for me!" Cork hissed from behind, and even the persuasion of the old man on the side did nothing to him.

Cork's father was a hereditary marquis, and he had been extremely privileged since he was a child, and the people around him, whether they were elders or friends, respected him, so he developed the arrogant and domineering character he has now, when has he ever been threatened by others?

Cork didn't believe that Leon really dared to touch him, everyone knew that his father, the Marquis of Levine, had a lot of friends, especially in recent years, and had a good relationship with an important person in the royal family, and the future development prospects were almost predictable. And Li Ang also lived in the royal capital for a period of time, can he not know?

As soon as he thought of this, Cork's heart became even more furious, so he shouted out the sentence just now.

However, the face of the old man beside him changed, and he immediately whispered, "Lord Cork...... This sentence can't be said nonsense, it will be troublesome for the Marquis to pass it back to the royal capital!"

Although the old man named Buzz was definitely not kind-hearted, he would not have given Cork such an idea just now, but after all, he still had some sense.

In someone else's territory, even the Marquis could not say in person that he was going to kill the local lord, because this was equivalent to giving the other party an excuse, under which no matter what actions the lord made and what consequences were caused, he would not bear any responsibility.

Of course, whether the lord can do it, and whether he dares to do it, is another matter.

Therefore, if there is a certain grievance between the nobles, it is generally resolved in another form, most of which are duels between the guards, and if the nobles have their own strength, they will also play in person. As for the other part, it is not impossible to put it on the table, and it is not impossible to frame them, assassinate them, or even find some kind of excuse to directly attack the territory.

But Cork's words had already been spoken, and from the moment it seemed that Leon was likely to make some moves, so Bouz began to be anxious, and he knew that his words would probably not have much effect, and immediately moved the name of the Marquis.

This sentence did have some effect, and Cork's face changed, knowing that what he said in anger touched the bottom of his father's confession, but he didn't know how to remedy it for a while.

Just when Cork was a little worried, something happened that he and Buzz didn't expect, and Hilarily actually made a real move and launched an attack on Leon.

......

The female guard can't be blamed for this matter, she is standing at the forefront, she herself is under the oppression of Leon, and at the same time worried about the safety of these people in Cork, it can be said that the nerves in her whole body have been tensed to the top.

The words that Cork shouted at this time were equivalent to triggering, and Hilarily subconsciously obeyed the order, waved her hands, and six daggers flew towards Leon in different arcs.

When the dagger was gone, Hilariel realized that something was wrong, and immediately turned her head and looked at the young nobleman behind her with a confused expression.

Cork didn't look at her, his eyes focused on the dagger's trajectory. Although he was a little regretful by Buzz, when the female guard attacked, a glimmer of hope rose in his heart.

In his eyes, Leon is a lord without any background, if he is alive, because of his title and status, Cork will indeed cause some trouble because of that cruel remark, but if the other party is really dead...... It's a good thing for him.

Because the dead have no right to speak, what happened today will be covered up by the people of Cork and other excuses, as for the officers who are watching...... Cork believed that if his father came forward, the border guard would give some face, and they were also here to trouble Leon, right?

And Leon's subordinates were not put in Cork's eyes at all, the lords were all dead, and what basis did these commoners have to "falsely accuse" the descendants of a marquis?

It doesn't matter if Hillarily's attack fails, Cork knows that Buzz also has a high-level teleportation scroll, which is enough to get them out of this place, and if he is scolded by his father when he returns, he will stay at home honestly for a while, and it is estimated that the trouble caused by that sentence will be over.

The royal nobles had a lot of interest, and they had a bad memory, and it didn't take long for the matter to fade, and Cork was sure of it.

......

At the same moment, the young man paused, first taking a deep look at Hillari, and then looking up at the dagger flying from all angles.

The two daggers on the front were the first to fly, and Leon raised the Immortal Vanguard to open his bow left and right, pointing at the handle of the dagger.

With a muffled sound, two fireballs erupted almost simultaneously, and the fierce flames swept Leon into it.

Cork's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but cry out.

"Hah!"

However, then his voice was stuck in his throat and turned into a "quack", very much like the sound of a male duck being frightened.

Leon walked slowly out of the flames, unscathed, and even had time to smile at Cork as if to laugh at his gaffe.

Not only the young nobles beside Cork, but even several officers in the distance were stunned, and then their faces became even more ugly.

Two more daggers flew to the left and right, one of which was not aimed at Leon, but at his feet.

Just like Caterina had just been, a thick layer of ice appeared beneath Leon's feet, and then another dagger burst again, and in the flames and light, the last two daggers flew from a tricky angle.

Just when everyone was speculating whether the dagger with the poison of corrosion at the end would be successful, Leon's voice came from the flames.

"Dreadnought!"

The flames swayed violently in an instant, and Leon's figure broke through the faltering flames and charged at Cole.
