Assassin's Chronicle - Chapter 121

Chapter 121
Just as Anfey had estimated, this was undoubtedly a slaughter . The Great Flame Sword in Anfey’s hand had created a flaming swirl in the battlefield . Where the flaming swirl moved to, people close to it were killed . Suzanna was more like a harvesting machine, passing through people horizontally and vertically . Where her sword passed, there had been a smog of blood appearing in the air .


Sante, Zubin and others were still releasing their magic . Although mages and swordsmen were on the same level, the ways they fought were quite different . If mages got the chance to fly in the air, swordsmen would be at a disadvantage and could only passively defend themselves without any chance to fight back . This was because the swordsmen could only fight back with sword radiance . Once the mages were in the sky, the swordsmen would have no chance to release their sword radiance . And vice-versa, mages’ shields and defensive magic arrays were quite weak . If they were attacked by bad-intentioned swordsmen at a short distance, the result would be disastrous .
The battle between swordsmen and mages on this level was not so fun to watch . The key to the victory lay on which party was the offensive one . However, the fatalities were far more than in the battles at the senior level . Senior-level fighters usually could decide the winner and survivor quickly . If Zubin, Sante and others were suddenly attacked by a group of swordsmen, their fatality would be no better than the swordsmen who were losing right now .
Wind Blade could be countered by combat power . Big fire balls were a challenge though . When the heat waves swiped through people, they would not necessarily die, but definitely be burnt to some degree . If Christian and Riska joined the legion, or if a meteor appeared in the sky, they would die without even any chance to counter it . The powers could be quite different even when the same magic was released by mages and magisters .
A mercenary ran towards Anfey like a crazy monster . Few wind blades were slayed on him, but all were countered by his combat power . The last slay of the wind blade got him and cut deep into his skin . The wind blade turned into moving elements and disappeared in the air . The reason that mercenary was hit by a wind blade at the end because it was released by Christian .
The bloody battle was quickly approaching the end . There weren’t many people in a merchant caravan and a small-sized mercenary group . More than half their number had been fatally injured . Christian and others had stopped to watch how Anfey and Suzanna did on the battlefield .
Everyone felt Suzanna’s sword skills had gotten a little better than before, and her attitude changed a little as well . Once she was in a state of fighting, she became cold and treated people’s lives like bugs . Seeing people dying one after another in front of her, she neither slowed down nor showed any sympathy on her face . She had +undetectable calmness in her .
Anfey’s sword skills made watchers feel they were enjoying a show .
If looking at their faces, Suzanna was undoubtedly more beautiful and enjoyable than Anfey . Girly-looking Suzanna looked adorable . Anfey was not a bad-looking guy, but he was not comparable with Suzanna in terms of looks . If looking at their sword skills, Suzanna was skilled with a strong killer vibe, while Anfey had dance-like moves to it . After watching the two of them on the battlefield, everyone felt they had illusion that Anfey did not kill those mercenaries and bodyguards; instead, they were rushing to Anfey’s sword one after another one .
The reason for that illusion was Anfey’s foot movement . Regular swordsmen’s forward, diagonal and side moves were only to help them speed up their offensive attacking or to dodge the opponent’s attacks . Anfey’s foot movements were systematic on their own . To Anfey, every foot move was an attack itself . Even if he held a sword in his hand still at an angle, with the foot movements, he still could kill his opponent one after another . Anfey’s sophisticated sword skills added more effects to his performance . It was more than just a simple calculation of one plus one equals two .
It was unknown when the Shansa Empire’s princess had come out of the wagon . She hid in a far corner with a person in her arms . She focused on the battlefield from a distance . Isis did not have that numb face anymore, instead, she had a smile on her face under the moonlight .
When the gang only had just over twenty people left, they could not take the terrifying feeling anymore and started to run away in all directions .
Christian slowly landed in front of Anfey and gave him a questioning look . Anfey nodded at him and then Christian waved . Riska and his fellows chased after those people in the gang .
Great Flame sword and Flame shield turned into elements and disappeared . Anfey walked over ten steps to the side . He smiled, "Bro, get up, I know you are not hurt . "
No one answered . There were dead bodies everywhere whose blood had gathered and merged into streams .
Anfey kicked on the waist of a dead body . That dead body sprang up like he was just hit by lightning . "Master Anfey, don’t kill me . Don’t kill me . " Looking at the chubby body, who else could he be? He was Ahab, with blood on his face and body . Anfey knew he was not hurt at all and had been lying on the floor for quite a while . He suffered while people stepping over him without making any sound . His will power was plausible .
"I will decide whether to kill you," Anfey said, smiling .
"Master Anfey, it was not my fault . " Ahab knelt on the ground . "It was that guy . He made me do it . Master Anfey, please forgive me . I can give you all I have . "


"Why did I hear you said "fight" before?" Anfey obviously was playing with him .
"That guy had a knife to my back . I had to give that order . " Ahad had already had regretful tears in his eyes . "Master Anfey, we are friends . Can you forgive me this time?"

"Is this how you treat your friends? Did you say the guy who had a knife to your back was a commander of a mercenary group? So, after he laid down among the dead bodies, you laid down as well . You are of the same batch . Tell me what happened . "
"You mother f*^ker . " A guy yelled in anger . The guy with thick sideburns sat up in the blood . Of course, he was not cursing at Anfey . He was cursing at Ahab . "Ahab, you mother fucker . My people all died because of you . You are still lying . I…" The big guy suddenly stood up and threw himself at Ahab .
Ahab was just a muggle, so he fell on the floor before he could make any defensive moves . That big guy was smart . He knew Anfey had not killed both of them because they still had value to him . He punched Ahab hard, but did not mean to kill him . Even though Ahab had not died from the punch, his head swollen like a pig head in a blink of eyes .
"Enough . Tell me whose idea it was?" Anfey asked calmly .
"It’s his, master," the big guy with thick sideburns yelled .
"It’s him . " Ahab’s yell sounded a lot weaker . It sounded as if he was dying .


"It does not matter whose idea it was . I do not care . " Anfey pointed with his finger . "Did you see over there? I will have them decide whether you will live or die . If they do not want to kill you, I will let you go . "
The big guy lifted his head and looked into the distance . His bloody face twitched . He recognized those two people . He knew what he had done to them . He cut off Isis’s tendon . He was also the first guy who raped her . How could that woman forgive him? If he had know what his situation would be like, he would have treated Isis like she was his family . Unfortunately, there were not so many "if"s in the world . There was no point to think of ifs .
If the princess of Shansa Empire did not flee, if Isis did not run away with the princess, all of these events would not have happened . That big guy had no position to think about ifs .
The big guy with sideburns suddenly jumped up and ran towards Christian . He did not dare to fight with Suzanna and Anfey . Compared with Suzanna and Anfey, Christian looked easy to pick a fight with .
Suzanna quickly put her hand on the sword shaft, and then she relaxed because she saw Anfey stepping forward and kicking that guy with his left leg super fast like a tornado swept through .
That big buy with sideburns got hit on his face while his body continued to move forward by momentum . His legs swung in the air and he fell on his back hard . His face was bloody, but this time it was quite different than when he was faking it before among the dead bodies .
Magic world had its own systematic sword skills, but there was no martial art skills that focused on legs . Anfey’s kick was fast and brilliant . Suzanna’s eyes brightened up and then she looked down to think about something .
"Hui Wei", Anfey called .
"Coming . " Hui Wei ran over from a distance .
"Take them to those two girls . Do what they say . If those two girls do not know what to do with them, give them a hand . " Anfey pointed in the direction of the princess with his chin .
"Women tend to more sympathetic . " Hui Wei curled his lips . "If those two girls wanted them to leave, should we really let them go?" Hui Wei had just officially joined the legion, but he already had thought for the legion . Letting these two guys go would bring trouble for the legion . It would not only bring revenge to the legion, but also cause troubles in the courts . If he could make a decision, Ahab and the big guy were already dead .
"If those girls let them go, wouldn’t you know what to do?" Anfey smiled .
"Master Anfey, please forgive me," Ahab said . The big guy had already passed out, but Ahab was still sober . Ahab screamed when he heard what the conversation between Anfey and Hui Wei . "I will give you all those female slaves . Please forgive me . "
"Shut up!" Hui Wei stepped forward and gave him a kick . "Those female slaves would be ours anyway according to the rules . How dare you say you are giving us the female slaves? You are such an idiot . "
"Anfey, those female slaves…" Christian asked .
"Take a few people with you and control those mercenaries . You do not have to do anything to those female slaves . "
"I got it . " Christian nodded .
