Chapter 238: Chapter 113: Almost Annihilated

"Clang clang clang clang~"

Like the other knights, the knight clad in silver armor ran at an incredible speed... It was unimaginable that a knight in heavy armor could reach such velocity.

In fact, this person was definitely not a knight.

Behind him, the phantom wings adorned with thorny patterns unmistakably proved his identity... he was a Governor, and from the voice, it was clear he was male.

But, there was a major issue...

"Clang!!!!!!!!"

The knight wielding the armor-breaking greatsword fiercely swung his strike, forcing the knight who was struggling to defend to lose his grip, and with an explosive sound, the knight’s knight sword was knocked away. Then he slashed out with Sword Qi, directly cutting down and slicing apart several knights who had been feigning attacks around him.

Blood flowed all over the ground.

There were two major issues... The first issue was that even knights, when using battle skills, needed to chant a "Battle Roar" or "Ha!" or "Hup!", they had to shout something. But this Governor in front of them didn’t need to.

Well, that was the Governor’s strength; a Governor could cast spells without chanting, and chanting could even enhance the power... So, the next issue was the second one.

The second major issue, a well-known problem... a Governor absolutely could not absorb human mana to use as their own, but this Governor in front of them could.

"Who are you?!"

The knights, barely resisting, retreated. One of them questioned, looking at the bloodstained knight rushing towards them, still desperately trying to counterattack amidst the panic...

But, in the next second, their formation was broken by a flying kick, and he was trampled to the ground... The last scene this knight saw was the horror knight thrusting his sword at the viewing slit in his visor.

This was a classic example of unarmored defeating fully armored, or rather... one of the few ways to win besides winning with magic.

Subdue, then pierce the head.

"..."

The knight silently slaughtered, appearing very mysterious, leaving these knights completely unable to guess his identity... Was it like this? Or was it for some other reason?

Imagine, this person was a Governor, then a male, and he actively sought trouble in the Caligula Territory. Most importantly... he could absorb human mana.

If a Governor had any way to bypass this restriction, in everyone’s imagination, it could only be the former Chief Governor who could appear as a Governor.

But no one dared to shout out their guess...

Because they didn’t dare.

*How should they put it, even though the situation was hopeless now... what if? What if they could counterattack? What if they got lucky and killed this Governor? Then they could survive.*

*But if it really was that person, then... there would truly be no chance.*

*So it certainly couldn’t be Yila; it had to be a strange Governor.*

"..."

However, was it just an illusion? The wings behind this Governor had already dimmed a bit... No! No no no!!! It wasn’t an illusion! They were really getting darker!!!

Gone!

As the mysterious knight’s wings vanished from behind him, the sword in his hand also began to fade... A mana-formed sword, when low on mana, would naturally start to disappear.

"Great opportunity!!!"

A knight shouted in delight, lunging toward the mysterious knight. His idea was simple—now was the only chance, just knock the opponent down, then everyone could pile on him.

*This was the only chance to win!*

But...

"First Wing Pillar·Square Formation Knight·Wing Shatter!"

Accompanied by this voice, a pair of brand-new wings suddenly appeared behind the opponent. Then, the previously dim sword blade also became solid and as dazzling as it had been before.

The phantom thorny flower wings shattered and reformed behind the knight, turning into large wings resembling the previous ones. However, unlike their captain, the Royal Knight, this time the mana seemed to belong to these ordinary knights.

So, the Square Formation Knight... this directly erased the special markings on his body.

*But, what difference did it make?*

"Boom!!"

The greatsword slashed down violently, instantly slaughtering the bold knight. At this moment, he no longer had any thoughts of resisting, and the other knights had also abandoned resistance, entering a state of awaiting slaughter.

Because this knight did not lower his voice again; that teen voice, so familiar to the people of the empire, unmistakably reached everyone’s ears, confirming the identity of the person in front of them—he was Yila.

Yila Elkaras... The Chief Governor who alone increased the number of people named "Yila" in the entire nation tenfold. He had always been an admired hero of the empire, but now he was fighting them.

No, it shouldn’t be said that way... It should be said that he was *slaughtering them.*

"..."

Before long, the knights stationed at the warehouses were almost entirely slaughtered by Yila. The last knight standing calmly faced Yila, gripping his sword, and sighed, "Lord Yila, I’ve always admired you..."

But Yila did not respond, only rushing toward him.

"Lord Yila, I haven’t done anything wrong, have I?"

The knight said as mana gathered on his blade, though it was just a faint spark to Yila. He asked Yila, "We’re simply enemies, right? You just want to kill me, right? I shouldn’t have done anything that made you hate me... right?"

It seemed this knight didn’t care about his imminent death; he looked as though he admired Yila, questioning... concerned about whether he did something to displease Yila.

"Of course not, you’re just performing your duty."

Yila kindly responded, his sword raised high, with mana bursting forth from the blade. Facing the knight’s calm expression, he said, "In your next life! Don’t be born in the Caligula Territory!"

Like a flash of the sun, in the next instant, the ground was split along with the knight.

...

...

Damn, too excited, quickly steal anything valuable and grab the magic wand, or else someone will come... Although the swine nobles feasting won’t likely notice until morning.

But can’t gamble on that...

——————————

At dawn, the convoy slowly arrived at the warehouse area, preparing to await the knights’ inspection. The convoy leader even had silver coins ready as a passing bribe.

But they abruptly saw a vision of purgatory...

"Aaaaaaaah!!!!!!!"

"Aaaaaaaa!!"

Panic spread among the pitiful coachmen... A sight to lament.
