Chapter 78: Arrival I
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“So tired!”
The young girl Shelly was waving a huge sword that was not compatible with her figure. She waved her sword at full power each ti, so beads of sweat appeared on Shelly’s fair skin even on such a chilly winter day.
After she was tired, Shelly put down her sword and took the hot towel from the maid. She wiped away her sweat lightly, then went beside rlin.
“After such a long ti, you don’t move at all. Are all Spell Casters this way?”
Shelly opened her eyes and stared curiously at rlin. From the ti she started practicing her sword, at least three to four hours had gone by. rlin had sat there on the chair, eyes slightly squinting and unmoving. He made Shelly extrely curious about him.
rlin opened his eyes slightly. In fact, he was ditating earlier but he could still sense his surroundings.
He had already stayed in Count Selin’s castle for a few days. Today was the revenge day rilung spoke of in his letter. It was also the day Count Selin had ordered to eliminate all mbers of the Nelson family in the past.
rlin had naturally heightened his alert, so even in his ditation state, he still took note of his surroundings. No one could be sure how rilung had planned to take his revenge.
“Young Lady Shelly, I also have a sister who’s almost your age.”
rlin did not directly answer Shelly’s question. Instead, he ntioned Macy.
“Oh? Your sister grew up in the Kingdom of Light since she was young. Does she practice sword like I do?”
Shelly was interested as expected and imdiately asked about it. In these few days, Shelly had taken a liking to rlin and always wanted him to talk about the interesting stories in the Kingdom of Light.
Interesting stories from a foreign country were always attractive to a young girl like Shelly.
rlin nodded and smiled. “That’s right. Macy is the sa as you. She practices the sword since she was young. At that ti, she learned from an Elental Swordsman of the Church...”
rlin did not know much about Macy’s stuff. However, any “interesting thing” about Macy could bring excitent to Shelly, especially when he ntioned that Macy had scolded “Anson” very badly once. Shelly’s eyes glead with excitent when she heard that.
“Wizard rlin, is Macy in Prakash City? She must be incredible. She dares to hit your friend. I don’t dare to hit my brother’s friend...”
Shelly stuck out her tongue and seed to be impressed about Macy’s “bold moves”.
rlin shook his head slightly and said, “Macy is still not an Elental Swordsman.”
Maybe it was her aptitude or sothing was wrong with her ntality. Macy had not truly beco an Elental Swordsman until now. On the other hand, Shelly, albeit naïve and young, was already a First-level Elental Swordsman!
Since she had not experienced any cruel battle, Shelly’s sword technique still appeared naïve.
“Not an Elental Swordsman, huh... Maybe it’s her cultivation thod. My brother is a true prodigy. He’s already a Fifth-level Swordsman now! He had killed a strong Icelandic Wolf by himself before. I practice with my brother. That’s how I have beco a First-level Elental Swordsman so quickly!”
When Shelly ntioned Cook, she was brimming with pride. It was obvious that she looked up to Cook greatly.
“General Cook? He’s very strong indeed!”
rlin also nodded. During his journey from the Kingdom of Light to the Kingdom of Blackmoon, he had t many strong Elental Swordsn. However, Cook was the strongest of all by far.
Fifth-level Elental Swordsman was truly strong! The Aura Cook gave out unintentionally had always given a dangerous feeling to rlin. Even if Cook was not a Spell Caster, rlin would not underestimate him.
“Wizard rlin, I heard you’re a strong Spell Caster. Even though I have seen one myself, but I don’t know how strong you guys are. Are you as strong as my brother?” Shelly tilted her head and asked in giggles.
rlin was a little speechless and did not answer. Shelly continued to say, “Surely, Brother is stronger. You haven’t seen him fight. He’s too strong! This rilung wants to hurt Father in the castle. Brother won’t let him go easily, so I’m not afraid!”
Shelly was confident about Cook and indeed seed unafraid at all.
After Shelly saw rlin had fallen silent, she thought he was no fun and went back to practicing her sword again. rlin placed his gaze at another side of the hall. The mysterious black-robed old man was not moving. Just like a statue, he sat crossed-legged on the floor.
rin still thought that the old man was full of mystery. His Mind Power had reached a high level, even comparable to a First-level or a Second-level Spell Caster.
However, having such strong Mind Power, the black-robed old man still maintained his Mind Power on a stable foundation, almost the sa as rlin’s Mind Power so it seed odd to rlin.
rlin stood up and approached the old man.
The black-robed old man sensed rlin coming toward him and opened his eyes.
“Wizard Hill, how high of a chance do you think Count Selin can deal with rilung?” rlin asked calmly.
The black-robed old man took a glance outside of the castle, his gaze distant. He said with a shadow of a smile, “Count Selin has let General Cook make proper arrangent. More than ten Fourth-level Elental Swordsn and strong crossbow arrows. Hehe. So well prepared. What does Wizard rlin worry about?”
“Well prepared?”
rlin snorted. Only a Spell Caster could truly understand another fellow Spell Caster. How could rilung not know about the situation?
“rilung belongs to Abyss Fort. If he brings so strong casting tools, Wizard Hill, I’m sure you understand as well how strong a Spell Caster with casting tool is. What effect can these arrangents of General Cook bring at that ti?” rlin said as he sneered.
He thought of Wizard Jason back then. With just a Spell Scroll, he forced rlin to give his all. rlin even had to use Bell Pendant to finally defeat Wizard Jason in the end.
If rilung had strong casting tools with him, then Cook’s arrangent in the castle would probably simply beco a decoration.
The black-robed old man looked at rlin, impressed. He nodded and reached out his dried-out hands. He pointed at rlin, then said in a calm tone, “This is why the Count has invited us. To deal with a Spell Caster, a Spell Caster is needed to do the job!”
A hint of ferocity flashed across the old man’s distant gaze.
rlin felt a small weight in his heart. It seed both Count Selin and the black-robed old man knew that Cook’s arrangent could not stop rilung.
The true trump card was this black-robed old man who seed to be weighed down with age!
