After leaving the hospital, I decided to look for clues about the people the empire was searching for.

"Why don't we just ask the Imperial Army?"

Danio suggested as he pointed to the members of the Imperial Knights walking around the street.

I nodded, so I stepped forward and stopped a pink-haired girl in light armor and a black military cap: "May I ask ......?"

"The Imperial Knight is on official duty, don't get in the way!" the girl's right hand had reached for the giant sword behind her back, ready to attack.

I instinctively took a few steps back and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"I said, don't get in the way of my official duties!" the girl had already raised her greatsword and pointed it at me, "Otherwise, I will arrest you in the name of the Empire!"

What a big breath.

"Well, I'd like to see what you're capable of!"

I haven't really fought once since I took Nicole's body, at least in the battle with Sharan, and most of the magic I used was from the Sunset Continent. Now that I'm going to play the role of Nicole, I naturally can't reveal my true identity.

So, I'm going to have a battle with the Elemental's spells, and now is the great opportunity!

At this time, the surrounding Imperial troops gradually surrounded him, and Danio also hurriedly ran over and apologized loudly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, she drank too much......"

Then he pulled me out of the crowd.

"Stop!" the Imperial girl shouted at me, and the nearby Imperial troops advised her, "Forget it, don't make a big fuss" or something.

However, it was their business to persuade me, and since someone called me, I naturally responded: "What? Do you want to bully more with less?"

"Ha, do I need to bully more or less?" the girl's tone revealed anger, "This evening, Moonlight Tavern, do you dare to fight?"

It's not like I haven't been to the Moonlight Tavern, you know, I just ruined a tavern today!

Of course, the tavern I destroyed was one on the West Coast, and the Moonlight Tavern was in Huttonmar Backstreet, which was a safer place and had more space.

As far back as I can remember, I fought Lilou at the Moonlight Tavern as a "Battle Mage...... Compared to what I really did at the time, it was completely different from what I remembered.

What the specific situation is, don't pursue it, otherwise my identity will be revealed again.

"Why don't you dare?" I didn't want to be outdone, "don't be late, or others will think you're scared!"

"Okay, you wait for me!"

Suddenly, the Imperial knights gave way, and in the middle of them, on the edge of the crowd, a thick-eyed man with a spear in his hand walked straight to the girl.

The girl's face was frightened, and she hurriedly put away her giant sword and saluted the man: "Deputy Commander!"

The deputy head glared at me viciously, then looked at the girl and asked, "Junior Knight Rennie." Report me what's going on here!"

His tone was as fierce and serious as his eyes, sounding emotionless and slightly angry.

In addition, the girl's name turned out to be Rainey.

"Yes...... For more information......"

"You guy, you've disgraced the Iron Wolf Knights!" the deputy head of the regiment became more serious after listening to Rainey's report.

"Yes......" Rainey looked very scared.

"So, who are you?" the deputy head of the regiment asked me instead, and the tone was still so rude, as if I owed him money.

I had no reason to succumb to his majesty, so I said, "I'm an adventurer, Nicole, what about you?"

"Presumptuous, dare to be rude to the deputy head of the regiment!"

Rainey was about to draw his sword when the Deputy Master stopped her with a hand and said, "I am the Deputy Master of the Iron Wolf Knights, Hyde Byrne K*. ”

That's a long name.

"So, Deputy Head Hyde?" Danio interjected, "I hope you don't mind if my friend and your men had some misunderstanding just now. ”

With that, he motioned for me to hurry up, and I turned to leave with Danio.

"Wait. Hyde suddenly shouted, "You have a fight with Rainey at the Moonlight Tavern this evening?"

I stopped, turned to look at Hyde, and nodded.

"I will be a witness to your fair duel, and I will see you in the evening. ”

————————————

So, as agreed, in the evening, Danio and I went to the Moonlight Tavern.

The tavernkeeper Sosia had already arranged for the tables and chairs to be moved aside, and there were many adventurers sitting next to him to watch the show.

Lando was among them, and he taunted and shouted at me, "You actually provoked the knights of the Empire, and now you feel good!"

According to my memory, Lando is my defeated subordinate, and it is normal to make sarcastic remarks, but the real situation, is he actually Nicole's defeated subordinate?

In addition to the adventurers, members of the Imperial Knights also came to watch the battle, and the two factions occupied each side of the field, as if there would be a battle of the century.

Isn't it just a duel between a beginner knight and an ordinary adventurer?

At the front of the Imperial Knights was Vice-Captain Hyde, and Rainey, who stood at his flank.

"You're finally here, we've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Rainey walked up five meters in front of me, drew his greatsword, and prepared to fight!

Danio also consciously went to the adventurer's viewing seat, and before leaving, he said, "Come on." ”

I pulled out the wooden staff behind my back, and began to feel the magic in me.

After knowing that Nicole would be able to spell, I was secretly surprised - this Nicole was already able to annihilate the advanced elemental magic of black holes, and she was also proficient in all four systems of magic, although she was specialized in dark attributes, and it seemed that in order to cooperate with the arrival of Danio's dark moon, she chose dark attributes as the focus.

And the power of the Eye of Fury...... It's better not to use it well.

"So, are you both ready for a duel?" said Hyde, still in that fierce tone as if someone owed him money.

"Ready. Rennie and I said in unison.

"Then, start the duel!"

I was casting a magic shield when Rainey had already attacked: "Phantom Sword Technique!"

A shadow resembling a human swordsman rushed out of Rainey's sword tip and came to me in an instant!

Before I could react, I had been slashed by the shadow's sword, and though it wasn't a real blade, it felt like I had been hit by a blunt object, and the pain knocked me back a few paces!

Rainey obviously didn't want to give me a chance to cast a spell, and when I was hit by the Phantom Sword, she passed through her shadow and slashed down with a sword!

I knew that the wooden staff in my hand could not block this blow, so I rushed forward, and hit the right palm, which was the "falling flower palm"!

Before Rainey's sword could slash me, he was struck by my falling palm, flew out, and crouched on the ground before he could stand on his feet.

"Elemental Ignite!" and I took the opportunity to use this spell.

Beside me, four flames of different colors appeared, representing the flames of the four attributes of ice, fire, light and darkness.

They seem to be just floating around me, but they are connected to me.

"Shadow Slash!" At this moment, Rainey's figure moved rapidly, and a sword light flashed in front of me.

"Stand-in straw man!"

I instinctively raised my wooden staff to block the sword, and at the same time, I also used this move, teleporting a few meters behind Rainey, and began to counterattack: "Shadow Night Cat!"

The black night cat that I threw with my fingers, like bullets, quickly twitched Rainey's back.

"Ahh

At the same time, the purple flame beside me transformed into the image of a dark moon!

Then, I used the spell again: "Frost Snowman!"

The snowman flicked and jumped, approaching Rainey, who raised his greatsword vertically, blocking the Frost Snowman's attack, and then began to fight back: "Serial Slash!"

She moved, attacked, and in less than a second, she was in front of me!

"Just what I want!

"Wow!"

Rainey saw a circle of thunder and lightning around me, so he temporarily stopped attacking! But after the lightning disappeared, Rainey also continued to move: "Kill Ascending Dragon Sword!"

I slammed myself high behind me, dodging Rainey's onslaught and the next lift, and unleashed the fire elemental magic: "Released in the air!

A fiery pumpkin falls from the sky and hits Rainey's feet!

With an explosion, Rainey flew upside down!

The scene was full of enthusiasm, but it was obviously a one-sided cheer from the spectators on the adventurer's side.

The Imperial camp shook their heads.

At this time, the four elemental flames around me all turned into their own ignited shapes, and they began to transmit power to me, and next, my spells would be strengthened!

Rainey, who was burned, got up in disarray, and shouted, "You...... You bastard!

Now that the four elements have been ignited, I can also use my final move to end the battle, so I gathered my mana, and the Dark Moon Fire began to glow with purple light.

"Annihilation ......"

"Enough!"

The sudden shout stopped Rainey's rushing footsteps, and I lowered my spellcasting hand.

It was Hyde, who came up from behind me and announced, "The winner is decided." ”

"No!Deputy Commander!!How could I lose to such an adventurer!" Rainey seemed to want to fight again.

"It was you who provoked this duel, if you lose, you lose, you should reflect on your behavior, now, go back and change your clothes, and then continue the mission tomorrow!"

"Yes!" said Rainey before leaving.

Hyde turned to leave, but I stopped him with a voice: "Excuse me, why did you come to Huttonmar?" ”

"Adventurer, I respect your strength, but this is always the official business of the Empire, and it has nothing to do with you. Hyde left this sentence coldly, and then walked away without looking back.

"Don't do that, Hyde. ”

A flirtatious tone sounded, and at the door of the tavern, standing was the head of the Iron Wolf Knights, one of the legendary Four Sword Saints - Barn.

He walked slowly towards me, and continued to say to me in a flirtatious tone: "This adventurer's strength is not bad! If you are interested, do you want to join our Knights?"

From a closer distance, the head of the regiment looked like white jade, without a single beard on his face, and looked younger than the captain, maybe it was.

He also has a hot gold hair - a hedgehog head, which looks very non-mainstream.

"Captain, you should know that the Knights don't need magicians. Hyde reminded coldly.

"Ah, I know, I know, it's just a joke. So......" Barn pulled out two wanted notices from behind him, "do you know these two people?"

One of them depicts a young girl with long red hair, and the other is a female dark elf.

"They are rebelling against the Imperial Revolutionary Army, if the adventurer sees them, please come to our camp as soon as possible and let me know. Those who can provide strong clues will be richly rewarded by Princess Isabella of the Empire!"

Once I had these two wanted warrants, Barn left the tavern with all the Knights.
