"Faina, what’s going on here?"
Before Brand could reply, a nobleman in a black suit erged from the onlooking centaurs not far away. He saw the noble girl tied up in a bundle, then looked at Luo Nuo and the other knights lying on the ground, and his expression changed involuntarily.
This middle-aged man raised his head, saw Brand standing in the field, with Antitina and Qian behind him, his face darkened, and he drew his longsword and stabbed without saying a word.
As his sword ca, Brand felt a scorching breath.
Passive Elent, Golden Domain.
Brand and Qian both raised their eyebrows, the elents on their bodies reacted simultaneously, and after a mont of space stagnation, everyone felt the temperature suddenly drop. Even the Thunder Gun in Qian’s hand was sparking with arcs.
The middle-aged man’s sword was blocked three inches from Brand by a Fire Shield. His expression changed, then he retreated, cautiously watching the two young people.
"Who are you?" Count Karenzi was secretly shocked. Of course, he recognized that neither Brand nor Qian were Tanians, nor were they Tree Elves. Especially Qian’s distinctive red hair, which imdiately revealed her identity as a mountain people.
Two such young golden powers, how had he never heard of them before?
"My lord, they are Eruein!" The noble girl Faina, seeing the middle-aged man arrive, almost couldn’t help but pat her little chest and let out a sigh of relief. "It was they who injured Luo Nuo and the others, that... that... young man, he even said... even said... the Empire is insignificant."
"The Empire is insignificant?" Count Karenzi snorted heavily at these words. The glory of the Empire is the pride of every Eagle’s citizen. In his heart, Erune was nothing more than a small group of insurgents. If it hadn’t been for the Wind Elves’ Black Hand in the past, the Great Emperor would have long eradicated these rioters.
Even though Erune has now been recognized by the Fla Temple, the proud Cruz people still refuse to acknowledge it. To them, these Erueins, clinging to a corner, were nothing but country bumpkins, and their nobles barely counted as true nobility.
Even though Erune’s Forr King Ai Ke did indeed co from a long-standing noble family in Cruz.
He looked at Brand with a sowhat shadowy gaze: "Young man, was it you who said that?"
Brand looked at this nobleman, his mind turning over impressions of the other. But the Cruz Empire had too many nobles, and the number of strong ones entering the Golden Domain was as plentiful as the stars in the sky, he had no idea who this person was.
He casually replied: "Just speaking the truth."
"A fine ’speaking the truth,’" Count Karenzi ground his teeth, but his almost bloodless, pallid face bore a cold smile: "But I hear that your country is currently in great trouble, with Oberg the Seventh being beaten to tears by a re Madara, sending an envoy to beg the Emperor for aid. Oh, right—that old guy would have already passed away by now."
He pretended to think for a mont, sighing: "Internal strife is rising, it seems your country is in a bad way now, young man. I wonder if that Princess of yours has any interest in our Ninth Prince, otherwise perhaps our Prince might lend a hand."
"Even the so-called insignificant Cruz Empire, handling even more trivial troubles of Erune would be an easy task."
The noble’s words were full of mockery, sounding grating to any Eruein’s ear. Antitina barely managed to hold back from retorting—after all, she was a girl—but she couldn’t help clenching her teeth inwardly.
Even Qian furrowed her brow. No matter how useless Erune might be, it was still the country to which everyone living on this land belonged, being ridiculed by outsiders like this was uncomfortable.
As for Brand himself, from the mont this man ntioned the Princess, a dark cloud had already settled over his face. For the first ti, his hand grasped the hilt of the Earth Sword.
He didn’t easily draw his sword because he didn’t want to kill, but if soone sought their own death, the young man wouldn’t mind fulfilling their wish.
re Gold Initial.
He could easily defeat the Gold Middle Rank Kulan with just his swordsmanship and strength, and that wasn’t even his full combat capability. Don’t forget, Brand also had the identities of a Travel Mage and an Elental Mage.
He didn’t even need Qian to intervene, and he was confident he could render this guy speechless in less than ten moves.
