Perhaps it was because Dean's death was too shocking, but when D 'Attarion walked towards Morteris, who was crawling on the ground, no one dared to stop him, including the guards of the Earl's Mansion. There was only one thought in everyone's mind. What … What kind of joke is this? How can an ordinary person fight against that kind of monster?!
If the other party intended to attack the young masters and ladies of the Earl's Mansion, these guards would have no choice but to bite the bullet and attack even if they knew that they were no match for them. But now, the other party's target was obviously the old archbishop of the Shrine of Light. Although Earl Nathan had a good personal relationship with Morteris, it was not to the extent that these guards would risk their lives to protect the latter. After all, they were only the private armed forces of the Earl's Mansion, and not the Guard responsible for maintaining public order. Strictly speaking, fighting criminals and arresting assassins were not their responsibility.
Therefore, even though they knew that their current actions were against the spirit of chivalry, they chose to remain silent in the end. They silently watched as the two murderous gods who had slaughtered everyone at the banquet left the Earl's Mansion, taking away Archbishop Morteris, whose status was unknown.
The captain of the Guard Team was drenched in cold sweat. He could already imagine the explosive news that would spread in Gudilesi City the next morning. Morteris, one of the 19 archbishops of the Shrine of Light in the South, was forcibly abducted from the banquet of the Earl's Mansion under the watchful eyes of the public. Not only that, but the other party had also arrogantly set fire to the Earl's Mansion before leaving.
Who knew if Earl Nathan, who was on vacation in Toscavel, would be infuriated to death when he heard this news.
Apart from that, someone had also taken advantage of the chaos to rescue the assassin in black. Compared to the two mysterious mages, the assassin's strength was not that exaggerated. However, because they could not figure out the relationship between the assassins and the assassin, the guards hesitated for a moment. For the sake of their own lives, they did not stop the assassin in the end. They just tacitly pretended to capture the assassin as an explanation. The scene looked very lively, but in fact, it was useless. In the end, the assassin even took away the corpse of the level-8 Paladin.
The grandsons and granddaughters of Earl Nathan, the host of the banquet, were all livid. With the prestige and status of the old earl in Gudilesi, they had never been humiliated like this. No matter what kind of grudge the two sorcerers had with the divine temple, what the two sorcerers had done tonight was too much. They obviously lacked the basic respect for the earl's house.
Earl Nathan's eldest grandson looked at his guards with even more resentment. Not only did they fail to keep the two powerful mages, but they even let the assassin in black and his accomplice escape. He could not help but scold angrily, "A bunch of trash! What the hell are you waiting for? Are you reminiscing about their power? Hurry up and inform the garrison, the City Council, the Shrine, and the Magic Association!"
The captain of the Guard Guards snapped out of his daze, and quickly ordered his men to report to the major forces in the city. It was impossible to keep such a huge incident under wraps. This time, the Earl's Mansion was definitely going to lose face. Hence, the top priority was to quickly organize manpower to rescue Archbishop Morteris.
However, when the Magic Association was mentioned, the captain of the Guard Guards' expression became strange again. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Erm, erm … Did President D 'Darion attend the banquet tonight?"
As soon as he said this, the young masters of the Earl's Mansion were stunned. At the same time, they could not help but look suspicious. At this moment, they finally realized the abnormality. The President of the Magic Association usually did not participate in such activities. Why would he appear here tonight? If it was just a coincidence, it would be too much of a coincidence.
Everyone had seen with their own eyes how terrifying the skills of the two mages were. A level-8 Shadow Stalker and a team of well-trained level-7 Paladins could not even stop them. The young masters of the Earl's Mansion felt a chill in their hearts. The whole city fell silent. A person with such strength would definitely not be a nobody.
Although D 'Darion was famous for being an abandoned homebody in Gudilesi City, it had only been more than 10 years since he went south alone to challenge the major southern Academy of Magic. The people in the university town, especially the older ones, did not forget how powerful he was so quickly. Earl Nathan had once told the young masters of the Earl's Mansion about the few people in Gudilesi City that they should not provoke, and D' Darion's name was one of them.
Earl Nathan's eldest grandson sucked in a breath of cold air. It can't be! D 'Darion is the President of the Magic Association! If he is really one of the people who attacked tonight, it will be a big deal! Could it be that the Magic Association feels that the Shrine has gone too far and is finally dissatisfied with their expansion in the south, so they decided to give them a warning?
At the thought of this, Earl Nathan's eldest grandson felt a chill run down his spine. This matter involved the two top forces in the human world. If there was any collision between them, even if it was just a small friction, the people caught in the middle would almost certainly die. Although Earl Nathan had considerable power and influence in Gudilesi City, compared with behemoths like the Magic Association and the Shrine, his power and influence were somewhat insignificant.
Just thinking about this possibility sent chills down his spine. Earl Nathan's eldest grandson could not help but urge, "Hurry up! We can put other things aside for now. Our top priority now is to find President D 'Edarion and see if he's still here!"
The captain of the Guard Guard was still a little hesitant when he heard that. "But the fire now …"
Earl Nathan's eldest grandson was anxious and angry. "Who cares about the fire at this time? Anyway, the Earl's Mansion has been burned down. It doesn't matter if it burns a little longer."
"Oh, as expected of the Earl's eldest grandson. This boldness is somewhat like Earl Nathan's when he was young." D 'Darion yawned as he swayed out of the small building behind the crowd. His eyes moved to Earl Nathan's eldest grandson and raised his eyebrows. "I heard that you are looking for me?"
"Da … President D 'Darion?" The latter was also stunned when he saw the President of the Magic Association. Although he had been urging his men to look for him, in his heart, he was 80% sure that one of the two magicians tonight was him. After all, such a powerful master was rare even in Gudilesi City. And it just so happened that D 'Darion appeared here tonight. If he said that all this had nothing to do with him, he was afraid that even he himself would not believe it.
