Chapter 166
Violent and ferocious attacks of three elements instantly covered the area where the giant bat was.
Exploding elemental fireballs, slimy and corrosive green globs of poison, continuous waves of ferocious wind blades……
Spells of three different elements, each with their own attributes now spew out of the three unique heads of the chimera, engulfing the forest in a magnificent and fiery funeral of magic.
But just as the chimera roared and reveled in the feeling of dominating the battlefield, a slim and tall figure broke through the wave of Elementium. It charged from the forest, quickly nearing the chimera.
The chimera was a magical being, but it also had powerful muscles and strength in a close quarters fight, Sharp claws and a powerful armored tail were all powerful weapons of the chimera. The three ferocious jaws tripled its threat to any enemy that dared to go close.
But today was not this chimera’s lucky day.
Three magical breaths fired in a panic were easily dodged by the ghostly figure with a flap of her thin bat wings. Its sharp claws that could tear apart a tiger were also deflected by the opponent’s blood red armor. Nauseating blood thorns appeared on the surface of the armor, silently deflecting most of the chimera’s blows.
The very next moment, a bat-winged demon that looked like a young human girl dodged the three jaws by a hair’s breath. As she dodged, a chain of blood red magic arrows shot through the lion head in the middle.
Grand Duke Lington who was seated at the head of the table rang his golden bell and summoned his bodyguards. Then he spoke, unhappy: “Ninther, this is the sacred city hall, not your witcher knights’ base. When not summoned, you have no right to step in here! ”
Grand Duke Lington was the owner of the City of Herdurand. In fact, he was the ruler of the entire Dulan Province. Within his lands, there were more than 3 major cities with a population over 100,000 men, and 16 smaller cities with a population below 30,000 men. The number of towns and villages were so numerous it was impossible to do a detailed count.
He had one of the most power even amongst the nobles of the Continent of Witchers.
Sadly, even with this much power, he had no means to make the arrogant witcher knights bend the knee. After all, all witcher knights on the continent belonged to the Central Kingdom. They took orders directly from the king himself. Even the nobles had no say.
On the Continent of Witchers, this group of people was the ones who dominated and ruled. These powerful knights who had powerful Battle Skills, these witchers who were loyal to the king. And the purpose of their existence…..was to purge the continent of the evil spellcasters that appeared.
In this proud nation where witcher knights ruled, several casters that awakened their evil powers would appear every year. They didn’t have tough physiques, or a will of steel from constant training, or knight’s equipment crafted to fit. But they could summon mysterious and evil flames out of thin air and freeze enemies in ice or let the dead climb out of their graves……
These evil casters were a hidden but terrible threat to society and humans. Thus countless righteous and noble knights responded to the king’s summons. Together, they ran to every rural and desolate village or town to judge and execute each and every evil caster who had exposed themselves.
These noble knights called themselves witcher knights and formed a massive but organised power structure. And this Ninther Mino who stood before their eyes right now was a respected witcher knight who had completed their advancement: a Spellbreaker Knight.
These witcher knights had a very respected status. They weren’t even bound by the laws set by the nobles. It was a pain for every government official in cities where there was a witcher knight base.
This bunch of witcher knights marched in recklessly just as Grand Duke Lington was about to shout at his subordinates over the reduced tax profits.
This made the Grand Duke so much angrier!
