Chapter 692: Chapter 274: Sneak Attack (Two-in-One ga Chapter)
“No problem, Great Priest, leave this matter to .” Holdan said with a slight smile, his face full of confidence.
“Uh… please forgive my intrusion, but I feel it’s necessary to remind you,”
“This Mr. Holdan from the Secret Snake Sect, you must not underestimate the opponent’s combat strength,” Raksul said, worriedly, seeing the confident expression on the other’s face.
After all, the other party was on his own turf completing tasks for his own church. If successful, everyone would naturally rejoice.
But if sothing truly went wrong, it could likely affect the relationship between the two churches, as the Secret Snake Sect would think they had been betrayed.
So, it was better to speak frankly from the start.
“Don’t worry! Holdan has been endowed with the essence of the Shadow Serpent’s bloodline. Assassination is his forte,” the Great Priest Ganon of the Secret Snake Sect, sensing Raksul’s concern, turned and reassured him with a smile.
“Moreover, if things really get out of hand, it won’t be a problem for Holdan to retreat unscathed.”
The Shadow Serpent?
Raksul nodded, having heard of this peculiar snake species, capable of manipulating the power of shadows, possessing a natural ability to turn invisible in shadowy environnts, and venomous as well.
If he really had integrated with the Shadow Serpent, then he indeed was a born assassin.
This assassination should not pose any issues!
“Hmm, rest assured, assassination is my specialty! Mr. Raksul, I shall depart now,” Holdan said to Raksul with a slight bow.
“So soon? Well, striking unexpectedly yields the best effect,” Raksul thought for a mont, then nodded with a smile.
“By the way, Mr. Holdan, in the Count Mansion, there is our informant. I believe he can accurately tell you the room where Rein is…”
…
—————–
ist County City.
Within a room in Earl Habbs Mansion.
Suddenly, a lively young man in leather armor, from the No Province Sword Bearers Branch, burst in shouting:
“Captain, I’ve already checked with that beautiful lady from the Mingster Branch, and you won’t believe it—this Viscount Rein is just a rookie!”
Given the overwhelming power of the hamr Rein displayed in the eting room, Langgeler and his two companions were naturally curious about him.
However, as the captain of the Sword Bearers, Langgeler, maintaining his stature, naturally did not probe.
But the young man had no such reservations.
Without needing Langgeler to ask, the curious Flay had already found out everything.
“A rookie?” The burly Langgeler looked incredulously at his team mber.
“Yes, absolutely sure!” the young man in leather armor affird with a nod.
“Flay, your definition of a rookie isn’t that anyone who joined the Sword Bearers after you counts as a rookie, is it?” Another young man, holding a gilt-edged book, closed it, glanced at his companion, and joked with a smile.
Flay, among the three, had been with the Sword Bearers the shortest, just two and a half years.
“Not even two months! Alex, would you call that a rookie?” Faced with the teasing, Flay blushed and retorted sternly.
“Huh? Two months?” the always composed Alex was suddenly wide-eyed, disbelieving, “Really? That’s too incredible!”
“Tell more!” Langgeler, increasingly shocked and curious, imdiately asked Flay.
“Yes, Captain.”
“Rein, a gold-tier Sword Bearer captain, nicknad ‘ist Siege Hamr,’ is also the leader of the squad ‘ist Siege Hamr.'” As he spoke, Flay seed to realize sothing was off and paused.
“Wait, that sounds awkward.”
“His own nickna is the na of the squad; it seems the other squad mbers absolutely trust their captain’s strength,” Captain Langgeler interpreted from a different angle than Flay.
He quickly noticed this from the perspective of a captain and his mbers.
“Go on, Flay.”
…
After listening to Flay’s account, Langgeler and Alex looked at each other in astonishnt.
They knew this young Viscount Rein was formidable, but they hadn’t realized to what extent!
“But, boss, don’t sell yourself short. Although this Viscount Rein, who likely mastered an advanced secret technique of hamr skill, is a bit stronger than you.”
“But don’t forget, besides mastering an interdiate secret technique in swordsmanship, you’ve also mastered an interdiate secret technique in shield defense. When combined, your combat strength is not less than that of Rein,” Flay reassured his captain.
“You young rascal, who’s selling themselves short? It’s just that even now, when his strength matches mine, you’re not considering his age. He’s the sa age as you guys; that’s the most terrifying part,” Langgeler couldn’t help but laugh bitterly.
“If we can make a good relationship, we certainly should,” Alex rarely agreed with Flay.
“However, Flay also makes a good point, it’s just him alone this ti, and boss, you still have my witchcraft to bolster you. Overall, our strength still surpasses this Viscount Rein.”
“Right, did you ask those from the Earthshaker squad? Why do they seem to hold this Rein… in such high regard?” Alex suddenly rembered sothing and asked.
“I asked, and the answer is even more incredible. It’s because Rein saved the lives of two of their mbers!” Flay, after a lengthy explanation, gulped down a large sip of water.
