With the successful transaction of the last auction item, the Nightingale rchant Guild's auction has officially co to an end.
After the show ended, Aurora, Flam, and Claudia boarded the carriage in the dark. The coachman lashed his whip, and the carriage galloped away from the Nightingale Chamber of Comrce. Along the way, Claudia's fingers fidgeted restlessly while her eyes kept peeking out through the window glass from ti to ti.
Back when they were still in the Nightingale Chamber of Comrce's building, just as they were about to leave, Vivian suddenly approached them in a hurry to deliver so very bad news.
She got the information that Olsen, the guy who was in conflict with them at the auction, was kicked out of the Raging Tempest rcenary group by their leader as soon as he returned to their base.
Olsen, who was forcibly kicked out of the rcenary group, seed unable to accept the blow and left in anger because of this incident. The whole story seed so fishy that Vivian couldn't help but remind Aurora and company to keep their guard up when they returned.
"Claudia, don't worry too much; Flam and I are here."
Aurora said calmly, but she really didn't expect that the Raging Tempest's leader would be so decisive and directly expel Olsen from the rcenary group.
"Wait... kicking him out of the rcenary group?"
Aurora suddenly realized sothing was fishy and quickly reached out and rang the bell in the carriage. Imdiately after hearing the sound of the bell, the coachman tightened the reins, and the horse neighed and slowly stopped.
"Is there anything wrong, Captain?!"
"We can't go this way anymore!"
Aurora opened the car door and poked her head out at the driver to tell him to go in another direction, but the coachman still didn't respond until she finished speaking.
"What happened?"
Aurora jumped out of the carriage to check the situation, but the mont she walked in front of the coachman, her expression darkened. The man who just a second ago was still alive and kicking was now lying lifelessly on the seat with his eyes wide open and an arrow stuck in his bleeding forehead.
"There's ambush!"
A crimson magic circle suddenly lit up in Aurora's right hand. She reached in with one hand and pulled out the Flamberg Waltz from it, looking around warily.
Flam in the car also opened the door and jumped out, noticing the abnormal situation around her.
"Captain? Flam? What happened?" Claudia walked down, holding the Glory lody, the staff she just received from her leader.
An eerie silence enveloped the surrounding area. Except for the shining magic stone streetlamps on both sides of the road, there was nothing else in their line of sight. Their bodies suddenly tensed, a creepy feeling looming over their hearts.
"Co out!" Aurora shouted into the air, keeping her eyes on the surrounding situation all the ti. "There's no point in hiding anymore! Olsen, I know you're there!"
After a long period of silence, footsteps sounded in the surrounding alleys, and several people in black robes and masks with various weapons ca out from the inside and surrounded them.
"C-c-captain?!"
Claudia couldn't help being a little scared of this situation. She grabbed the staff and stared at these masked n and slowly moved back until her back touched Aurora's, and imdiately so sense of relief washed over her heart. At this mont, Aurora's firm back gave her a great sense of security.
"Aurora, you have humiliated so much today... I will pay you a hundredfold for what you did to , you fuckin' bitch."
A cold voice full of madness sounded, and the crowd in front of Aurora slightly turned towards the source. A tall man walked slowly from outside with a giant ax in his hand. His eyes were scarlet, and even his face beca extrely hideous because of resentnt and anger.
"Heh, Olsen you just reap what you sow." Aurora sneered. "And, you dare to openly assault a noble? Are you out of your mind?"
"Heh! What about nobles? Dead n tell no tales! No one will know what happened here as long as you die, you bitch!"
'And you think no one will know what you did? What a fool...' Aurora knew it was futile to reason further with this imbecile and instead did a little calculation in her head to assess her current situation.
Unexpectedly, the hatred of Raging Tempest had already reached the point where they were willing to play a farce to pretend to expel Olsen from their rcenary group to draw a clear line while secretly assigning so many people to assassinate her.
These people weren't the low-level scumbags that they had beaten in the rcenary association but highly trained combat fighters, which, from the system assessnt, were around level 7~9. It was highly possible that these people were one of the Raging Tempest's reserve teams.
Including Olsen, there were fifteen rcenaries surrounding them, visible to the eyes, while it was unknown how many more lurked in the shadows, ready to shower them with a rain of arrows.
"This is a little troubleso."
Aurora knew that this would be a fierce battle.
"Brothers! That bitch will be killed by ! Keep the other two alive. I'll give them to you to have fun later!"
Olsen swung his huge axe and rushed towards Aurora, while the surrounding rcenaries also raised their weapons at the sa ti with bloodthirsty smiles on their faces under the mask, rushing towards them fiercely.
"Flam, watch the back; I'm in charge of the front! You must protect Claudia!"
Aurora stepped forward and raised her sword to confront them without hesitation. A light blue light flashed in her eyes as she swung her sword.
[Magic Enhanced Sword Dance]
The sword and axe clashed and burst into flas. Before Olsen could steady his footing, Aurora took a small step back, dodging the incoming spear stabbing at him from the side. Almost simultaneously, four slashes ca out of thin air toward Olsen and the other rcenary, startling both of them.
Olsen barely managed to block it, pushing him back several steps; the other wasn't so lucky. Being caught unprepared, the spear-wielding rcenary's arm was instantly severed by the slashes.
"Ah!" the rcenary wailed, covered his shoulders, and stepped back.
"This bitch is weird!" Olsen's pupils shrank.
The slashes that appeared out of thin air just now reminded him of the fast swordsmanship he fought against in their first eting.
Just when Olsen raised his vigilance and his hands and feet beca a little timid, Aurora saw this good opportunity and rushed towards the other rcenaries like an arrow off the string.
She had to reduce the number of rcenaries in the area as soon as possible. Otherwise, as ti goes by, her physical strength would be exhausted, and she would be attacked by many people at the sa ti. She couldn't guarantee that she could resist it.
With a flick of her sword, Aurora knocked the dagger from the rcenary's hand in front of her, and four slashes burst out to kill the man instantly while the magic cannon from her left hand blasted toward the rcenary on the opposite side.
The other party seed to be prepared and successfully blocked her magic cannon, but after having been leveled up, the power wasn't sothing that the rcenary could bear. The man was blown away by the impact in the direction where Flam was currently fighting against another rcenary.
Flam, who had just kicked her opponent away, felt sothing flying toward her and turned around in reflex, thrusting her sword through the man's heart instantly.
"Aarggh!!"
The rcenary's vision turned black, and he fell to the ground lifelessly.
"Very good. The enemies' number is reduced by two."
Aurora flicked away the long swords of the two rcenaries with a roundabout slash, and at this mont there was a sudden swoosh in the air.
"Not good!"
Aurora felt a chill creep up her spine. It was too late for her to block the incoming arrow.
"Holy Light Barrier!"
A white light lit up, and a translucent barrier appeared on Aurora's right side.
Twank!
The arrows fired in the dark were all blocked by this barrier. The tips of the arrows still had a dark green luster, indicating that they had been sared with poison.
"Thank you, Claudia."
Aurora breathed a sigh of relief, pushed the two rcenaries in front of her away, and rolled backward. A light blue light erged from her hand, and she slapped the ground fiercely.
A stream of water burst out within one ter around Aurora, crashing onto the rcenaries and drenching their bodies completely.
"Oh, you can't bear it anymore and cum?" A rcenary chuckled as he wiped away the water stains on his face. "Ah."
A dazzling yellow light lit up from Aurora's palm and spread out in all directions like a web. The rcenary was still smiling at first, but soon he felt sothing was wrong as if a little numbness had rushed up from the soles of his feet.
In the next second, a large amount of electric current rushed up from their feet, and the bodies of these drenched rcenaries convulsed violently. Their eyes rolled up, and foam started coming out of their mouths.
Aurora didn't waste any ti and swiftly beheaded all the paralyzed rcenaries.
"Asshole!"
Olsen's eyes grew ferocious as he watched the brothers he brought to Aurora be slaughtered one by one like trimming weeds. He no longer cared about Aurora's strange swordsmanship and swung the huge axe to hack Aurora apart.
Boom!
The giant axe blasted a lot of stones when it landed. Olsen's muscles bulged violently as he pulled out the giant axe with all his strength and swept it forward fiercely.
Aurora had just avoided the slash of the giant axe, but Olsen's giant axe had swept in front of her before she could react.
Aurora urgently raised the crimson sword to block the incoming attack, but the attack was so powerful that the giant axe still smashed her hard on the chest.
"Puff!"
Aurora was sent flying out at once, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
