Chapter 65.1: Refrigon (10)

The body that had lost its head collapsed to the floor.

It was a shabby end for someone who became a Lord of Calderic.

After looking down at the corpse for a moment, I threw the broken sword at the floor. The blade of the sword could not withstand the impact of his decapitation and was broken.

Hmm.

I felt a slight lethargic feeling all over my body.

It was because the enormous power that had filled my body until recently had all vanished as if it had evaporated.

When the Tyrant died, the power of blood magic that I had stolen from him had disappeared.

I didn’t expect it, but it was not possible to permanently absorb the robbed ability just because the original owner died.

Well, that would be a big scam if it did.

If permanent extortion was possible, wouldn’t even Gascalid, during his lifetime, slaughter all his people and absorb their blood magic?

As I thought that, I turned my gaze to one side.

Suddenly, the thick blood mist was lifted, and I saw people in a distant place on one side of the completely ruined stadium. It was Asher and Riff.

I walked towards the two who were staring blankly at this side.

The boy Asher was carrying was still unconscious.

However, there was no longer the dark red blood or bulging veins that had been circling his body a while ago. The body had returned to its normal state.

“···Ah.”

Reef, who was sitting on the floor, bled like that, but she still hadn’t lost consciousness.

As I stared at the boy, her gaze shifted to her brother and her eyes widened.

I said quietly.

“Your brother’s light blood disease seems to get better.”

“···”

Reef looked up at me with a bewildered face and stood up.

But then her eyes lost focus, and his body staggered over. In the end, this seemed to be her limit.

Asher quickly supported her as she collapsed.

Both siblings had infinitely weak breathing and pulse, but they were still alive.

There were no potions in hand because we had used up all the Scarlet potion, so we had to take them to Gulpiro quickly.

I told Asher.

“Let’s go. We must hurry with treatment.”

“Yes···”

Asher’s gaze turned to the other side of the stadium again. To the place where the Tyrant’s corpse was lying.

She couldn’t hide the embarrassment on her face as she didn’t think that I would even kill the Tyrant.

But what could I do? I had no choice but to choose between killing these siblings or the Tyrant himself.

And I just killed him and save the former.

Thinking back, I did something really crazy.

But strangely, my heart was relieved, and I had no regrets.

I didn’t know if I was feeling this way myself, but I felt that this was the right choice.

Of course, the reason in my head was still cursing me for being a crazy bastard and urging me to think about what I had to do in the future.

Still, not that I didn’t really think about what would happen next.

First, the treatment of the siblings was given priority, so I moved on to the potion shop after thinking about it.

“···?”

At that moment, a rushing force from one side drew near.

Knights armed with armor. I could tell right away that they were knights belonging to the territory.

If it was the knight order under the direct control of the Sixth Lord, was it perhaps the Dark Soul Knights?

At first glance, the number of knights in the castle seemed to have flocked, and their estimated number would be at least over a hundred.

It was natural that they were mobilized because such a riot happened in the middle of the city. They were all entering the stadium with a look of bewilderment over the wreckage and corpses.

【Lv. 72]

Soon they found us and stopped in amazement.

The knight, who seemed to be the leader at the forefront, carefully opened his mouth.

“…Are you the Seventh Lord?”

Apparently, they knew that there was a fight between the Sixth Lord and I, so they rushed to the scene.

I didn’t have to answer.

Their eyes turned to my back, and when they found the Tyrant’s corpse lying on the floor, they opened their eyes wide.

I staggered towards them.

“Stand back.”

Even after confirming the death of the Tyrant, the knights could not stop me.

They simply backed away from the road where I was walking.

Even if their Lord had been murdered, there was nothing they could do to stop me.

I walked along the road split on both sides by the knights, and Asher followed behind me with the siblings in both hands.

Until we disappeared, the knights stood still for a long time, immovable.
