This time, the matter had indeed become a big deal.
In less than an hour, not only the nobles, but even the commoners in the Royal City knew about it.
"I heard that the young master of Duke Lucica's family has offended Viscount Porztut."
"The young master of Duke Lucica's family has offended Viscount Porztut's woman."
"Duke Lucica has already brought his guards and knights to Porztut's house."
"A viscount has actually gone against a duke. That's amazing."
"Only Viscount Porztut would dare to do such a thing."
Even though it was the middle of the night, the streets and alleys of the Royal City were filled with all kinds of discussions. One could imagine how big the incident was.
This was also because Shien was one of the main characters in the incident.
As Shien's reputation had risen, many people were paying attention to him. Whenever he did something, it would naturally spread and everyone would know about it.
Hence, not only the nobles, but even some of the more daring commoners headed to the noble district and Porztut's house, intending to find out what had happened.
However, when they arrived at Porztut's house, they were shocked to realize that the incident this time was much bigger than they had imagined.
This was because the entrance of Porztut's house was surrounded by a dense group of knights.
The person in the lead was a middle-aged noble who seemed to be around fifty years old and was dressed in luxurious clothes.
This person was Adel's father, the Duke of Mithra Kingdom, Gerloman Lucica.
At this moment, Gerloman's face was extremely gloomy. Standing beside him were Aki and Rende, who were both yes-men. It was obvious that he was on the verge of exploding.
In fact, Gerloman was in a terrible mood.
Not only was it because his son had done such a good thing, but it was also because everyone knew about this matter, which made him feel that he had lost all his face.
Hence, without much thought, Gerloman brought all the guards and knights around him and surrounded the entire Porztut's house.
"Shien Porztut!"
Gerloman shouted angrily.
"Return my son to me!"
Under Gerloman's roar, the knights behind him took a step forward at the same time.
"Boom!"
The sound of heavy, orderly footsteps suddenly rang out, filling the world with an austere aura in an instant.
This shocked the nobles and commoners who were watching the scene.
"Is Duke Lucica really going to fight with Viscount Porztut?"
"He's really daring."
"Although he is only a viscount, he is still the first priority candidate for Her Highness Rosie's husband."
"He's not even giving face to the royal family?"
"It seems like he's lost his mind for his only son."
Just like that, everyone was discussing spiritedly.
Until …
"What a nuisance. It's so noisy in the middle of the night. As expected of the Duke, he really knows how to bully others."
After the words were spoken, the door of Borztutt's house opened up.
Inside the gate, there were no guards or knights. Only Sean and the members of Vivian's team slowly walked out and appeared in front of everyone.
There were no guards or knights behind the door. Only Shien walked out with Vivian's team.
However, he was dragged out by Sean by the back of his collar.
Everyone gasped when they saw this scene.
Not only was Adel dragged out, but the duke's son was also covered in wounds. His face was swollen, and he looked like he was on the verge of death. There was even a trail of blood under his body. He looked extremely pitiful.
Pitiful was no longer enough to describe him.
"Adel!" Gerloman was shocked and angry. He flew into a rage and looked at Sean as if he had killed his father. He growled, "Bastard! How dare you …!? "
Looking at the furious Gerloman, Shien revealed a cheerful smile that didn't look like he had done all this.
"Of course I dare." Shien said with a faint smile, "He's just a piece of trash who bullies others. Why wouldn't I dare?"
"You …!" Gerloman pointed at Shien as he panted and shouted with bloodshot eyes, "Give him back!"
However, Shien didn't do as Gerloman shouted. Instead, he smirked and dragged Adel over, throwing him in front of him.
Bam!
In the next second, Shien lifted his leg and stomped on Adel's body without hesitation.
"Ahhhhh …!"
Adel let out an extremely painful scream that made everyone's heart tremble.
"Stop!"
Gerloman finally exploded. He raised his staff and chanted a spell, releasing a sky-high flame that blasted at Shien.
"Give Up. Dispel."
Sean did not even move. He merely chanted a sentence, and the mana in his body erupted. The flames that fell on his side immediately disappeared without a trace, as if they had been blown away amidst everyone's exclamations.
Bam!
Sean didn't waste his breath or retaliate. After dispersing the flames, he lifted his leg and stomped on Edward's body expressionlessly, causing him to scream in agony again.
That silent mockery and sarcasm made Gerloman lose his mind.
"Everyone, attack!"
Gerloman roared, and the knights behind him drew their weapons. The mages also raised their staffs and attacked Shien.
Unfortunately, Shien didn't move at all. Even the girls around Shien watched with sullen expressions and didn't move at all.
However, just because Shien and the others didn't move, it didn't mean that no one else would.
In mid-air, a scorching breath suddenly descended and blasted in front of the charging knights.
Boom!
Amidst the explosion-like rumbles, the scorching breath spread out like magma. Not only did it scorch the ground in an instant, it even blasted the attacking knights away, causing them to cry out in agony. They were blown up and fell to the ground.
Roar!
Only then did the pitch-black dragon descend from mid-air and come to the top of Sean's group. It looked at everyone in front of it and let out a violent roar.
The angry roar turned into a turbulent wave of air, blowing on everyone's body.
"The Adol's Black Dragon!"
"It's the Adol's Black Dragon!"
When the spectators saw this scene, all of them cried out in surprise and trembled with fear.
Gerloman, who was blinded by anger, felt as if a basin of cold water had been splashed on him. He felt a chill from head to toe as he looked at the Black Dragon descending from the sky.
Even he understood that in the face of the legendary Adol's Black Dragon, it would be useless no matter how many people he had on his side.
It was said to be a Legendary-level magical beast that was above level 90, an almost invincible King of Magical Beasts. Unless it was the Royal Knights, which private army or Royal Knights under the command of a noble would be able to defeat such a magical beast?
"Are you awake now? Your Grace? "
It was only then that Sean spoke sarcastically.
"You don't really think that you're the stronger side, do you? It can't be, right? "
That one sentence caused the veins on Gerloman's temples to bulge. He clenched his fists tightly, and one could imagine how furious he was.
After all, when had he ever been bullied like this?
As a duke, a noble of the highest class, and a true relative of the king, even the royal family had to greet him with a smile. In the small neighboring countries, even the king had to flatter him. How could Gerloman be bullied like this?
This was also the reason why he dared to bring the knights to block the door even though he knew that Shien was not to be trifled with.
In his opinion, Shien was just a viscount after all. No matter how extraordinary he was, he should still give face to him as a duke.
Who would have thought that not only did Shien not give him any face at all, he even did his best to ridicule and trample on him, not taking him seriously at all?
"You're just a viscount, how dare you treat me like this?" Gerloman roared. "Do you really think you're Her Highness Rosie's husband? You're just a candidate! "
This was also one of the reasons why Gerloman dared to block the door.
After all, Shien was just a candidate, and not Rosie's husband. That was why Gerloman dared to be so domineering.
But …
"Are you senile? Do you really think you're so powerful? " Shien stopped smiling, looked at Gerloman, and said slowly, "Let's not talk about whether I'm a candidate or a viscount. I was awarded the royal token when I was still an adventurer. Have you forgotten? Or do you really not take it seriously? "
As he spoke, Shien took out the royal token from his arms.
Looking at the token, everyone seemed to have woken up from a dream and remembered this matter.
Yes, Shien had the royal token.
Because Shien had done so many things that people took delight in talking about, many people had forgotten that Shien still had the royal token.
"Seeing the royal token is like seeing the royal family themselves. I don't think I need to teach you this rule, do I? Old thing? " Shien stared at Gerloman, whose face was alternating between green and white, and said without hiding his sarcasm, "You want to compare status? I really want to say that you're not the king, and it's not like no one has a higher status than you. You're a duke. To put it nicely, you're a noble of the highest class. To put it bluntly, you're just a guy who failed to fight for the throne and was sent to the border. You're even a descendant. What's there to be arrogant about? "
"You … You …" Gerloman's hand that was pointing at Shien was already trembling.
He was angry and annoyed at the same time.
He dared not believe that Shien dared to say such a thing.
After all, it wasn't just him who said that. Almost all the dukes were mocked.
Because of Sean's words, the people from the Duke's family twitched in the crowd.
But at this moment, Shien was no longer holding back.
"You want this guy?"
Shien kicked Edward, who was at his feet, and a chilling smile appeared on his face.
"Fine, I'll leave the body to you."
As he spoke, Shien stepped on Edward's neck mercilessly and exerted force.
"Crack!"
Edward's screams came to an abrupt stop.
"No!!!"
Gerloman's sorrowful cry echoed in the crowd.
