Chapter 18 - Chaos

Hellagur put away his pocket watch. This holy healing technique was more powerful than he had imagined.

Such a terrible blood curse was actually dispelled.

Casting a Holy Hands spell consumes 45% of his magic power, and the remaining magic power in his body is only enough to cast it once more.

"This is..." Emil thought he was going to die.

Herag explained, "There's a spell on this pocket watch that happens to dispel the curse."

"So that's how it is. It seems that magic isn't all that scary." Emil's mood still hasn't recovered. Everything he just experienced is enough to cast a shadow over his life.

There were no people around, only dead bodies everywhere.

There was chaos in other parts of the castle, with shouts and screams.

When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter.

After Baron Buck fell, in addition to the people who were originally lying in ambush outside, even the guards and servants in the castle were scrambling to move away the valuables in the castle.

Except for Melissa, all the blood relatives of Baron Buck's family in the entire castle are dead, so there is no owner.

Melissa is still in great grief and doesn't know if she can get over it in this lifetime.

"Melissa, let's bury the Baron and the others first." Emil calmed down and didn't care about anyone else.

The dead are gone, the treasure is not important, the most important thing right now is to comfort Melissa.

"I'll go look after old Henry. I'll come see you later." Herag said hello and went to the back garden.

The situation is so chaotic now, and old Henry can't move. Herag is afraid that he will be in danger.

Heragh met many panicked people along the way. Many guards were holding gold bars, pearl necklaces and other things in their arms. They looked at Heragh with guilty consciences. When they saw that Heragh didn't say anything, they quickly lowered their heads and ran away.

"Help...don't..."

When Herag passed by a house, he found a guard raping a maid inside, and the maid's clothes were torn to shreds.

"You looked down on me before! I pursued you but you rejected me..." The guard's face was full of anger.

Hellagur silently took the longbow from his back and shot an arrow through the window, taking the guard's life.

The surviving maid looked out the window, panting, and saw only Hellagur's departing back.

A strong smell of blood rose from the room. The maid fled, covering her chest, and the guard fell face down in a pool of blood.

Such scenes happened in various places in the castle, and it was a mess.

On the way to the back garden, Herag also saw the body of a guard with some pearls scattered next to the body, obviously there was a fight over property.

Someone ran out of the back garden in a hurry. Herag took a closer look and found that it was Mary who was taking care of old Henry.

"Mary!" Hellagur roared.

Mary shuddered with fear, and when she saw Herag, she became even more panicked and ran away.

There was no way an old lady like her could outrun Hellagur. Hellagur caught up with her in just two steps.

"Why are you running? Where's old Henry?" Herag asked.

Mary's eyes flickered, not daring to look at Hellagur: "He...he fell asleep."

"Are you asleep? Come with me in and take a look." Herag held Mary's neck and walked into the back garden.

Inside the house, the bow was still hanging on the wall, and old Henry was lying on the bed, looking indeed like he was asleep.

There was a glass of wine beside the bed, which looked like the wine distributed today.

When Herag approached, he found that old Henry was no longer breathing.

"How did he die?" Hellagur asked.

"He...he..." Mary stuttered nervously, "He drank a glass of wedding wine in the morning and then fell asleep. I didn't pay much attention to it. Later, there was a commotion in the castle, and I went to call him, only to find that he had passed away."

"Deep Blue, detect the cause of death."

"Tests completed, natural death, excluding the possibility of homicide."

Herag felt a little better, at least he left without pain.

"Let's go." Herag let go of Mary.

Mary backed away while keeping an eye on Hellagur, fearing that he might suddenly attack and kill someone.

There were footsteps of many people outside the house, and a voice that Herag was familiar with.

"Melissa is not dead, and I don't know why she is not dead. Let's go, I will lead the way. Now she is alone with Emir. Master David, tonight you can ride on your enemy's daughter and ravage her."

"That's the voice of Butler Ivan." Herag groped his way to the back garden and jumped onto the roof to observe.

Ivan followed a blond young man with a flattering expression, and behind them was a group of fully armed men.

There are four knight-level strongmen in this group.

Herag quickly walked along the rooftop and arrived at the square where the banquet was held. Emil and Melissa had just finished cleaning up the bodies of their tribesmen.

"Emile, Ivan brought..." Heragh described what he saw.

"David? He should be Simon's eldest son. I want to kill him!" Melissa was very emotional.

Emil hugged her and said, "Hide first. Herag and I will handle this matter."

Melissa actually calmed down at this time: "I'll wait for you."

She knew she couldn't help, so she forced herself to calm down.

Hellagur jumped onto the roof and found a suitable sniping position.

Emile lurked on another rooftop, adapting to the situation.

David swaggered in with a group of people, his face full of pride.

After the death of the great knight Baron Buck, he thought that no one could threaten him.

"Our two families have been fighting for hundreds of years, but we won in the end, hahaha!" David couldn't help laughing.

They only sacrificed one person, but Buck's side was completely wiped out.

Herag was hiding on a roof far away, the bowstring was pulled taut, and the arrow was shining with a cold light.

To be on the safe side, he even poisoned the arrows.

The arrow flew out with a whoosh, and David, who was still laughing, was completely unaware of the danger coming.

He felt a sense of danger from the knight behind him, but he didn't know where the danger came from.

The knight raised his hand and was about to remind David: "Master..."

An arrow pierced David's throat and blood spurted out.

"Young Master!" Four knights quickly surrounded David and protected him.

But it was too late to save the situation. David pointed to the sky and collapsed without saying a word.

"Well..."

Butler Ivan covered his throat in horror, blood foaming from his mouth, and he also fell down.

"Get out of the way!" someone shouted.

The crowd began to disperse and seek shelter.

At this moment, Emil rushed down from the roof, assisted by Hellager's long-range firepower. They were already very familiar with the cooperation.

With Hellagur's 100% accuracy archery skills and Emil's extremely strong melee ability, this group of people were no match at all.

Just ten minutes later, Hellagur put away his fine steel bow and cleaned up the battlefield with Emil to prevent anyone from being killed.
