Chapter 448 Working Together Again


"Got him!"


"!!!" The mysterious guy widened his eyes in shock. He saw Noel having no hesitation in cutting him down.


"Kh!" The guy took out his sword as well, barely stopping Noel"s attack.


Still, this guy was a Spirit Master, while Noel was only a Spirit Wielder. As soon as the guy regained his calm, he started overpowering Noel.


"Haaaa!" The guy gritted his teeth and pushed Noel away.


Noel summoned a Chain Bind Rune and controlled all chains to capture this guy.


"What is that?" The guy became even more shocked since this was the first time he had seen a symbol like this. He thought Noel was using his Spirit Ability, but the rune was similar to the Spirit Enchantment.


Because of the weird technique, he ended up moving back to regain some distance.


Suddenly, Noel smiled. "Got him."


"Huh?" The guy was confused for a moment before he suddenly felt chills down his spine. A presence appeared behind him. No, it was more like the presence couldn"t be detected because it didn"t enter his range this whole time.


Now that the presence was this close, he could feel it.


"Kh!" The guy hurriedly spun his body and struck Anna"s blade.


Unfortunately for him, Anna had covered her sword with lightning. The moment the two swords clashed, the lightning was discharged.


*Bam!*


"!!!" The guy was. .h.i.t by the explosion and thrown back to Noel. Using this opportunity, Noel also waved his sword by imbuing the sword with black fire.


"Black Fire?" The guy couldn"t understand Noel"s strength at all. But more importantly, he recognized the female that almost killed him earlier. She was Anna Stargaze.


That was right. Noel was baiting him this whole time, so Anna could kill him. But as expected from a Spirit Master, he wouldn"t die that easily. Even though he barely blocked all their attacks, it didn"t change the fact that he was almost unscathed even after the ambush.


*Clink!*


He also stopped Noel"s sword at the last second and tried to push him away. This was when Noel released his Ignition Sword, causing a big explosion.


*Boom!*


The guy was engulfed by the explosion, but the roof was surely destroyed.


"Kyaaaaa!"


"What"s happening?"


"Aaaaahhhh!"


*Bam!*


The people panicked as they stared at the building where the explosion occurred. Everyone was locking their eyes on the three figures standing on top of the building.


The one in between was actually covering himself with a water bubble, neutralizing Noel"s explosion. But Ardagan"s Undying Fire wasn"t that easy to defeat. The water ended up falling down as if it didn"t have any energy left to maintain its form.


"Who are you?!" Noel shouted, alarming everyone. He took out his badge and declared, "I"m Iadre from the Demon Banner Army. Why do you follow me when I"m tasked to escort the Count and the citizens? Are you the one causing the demon"s outbreak?"


The moment they saw the badge, they were convinced Noel was the real one. The Demon Banner Army was on the people"s side, so they instantly trusted Noel and frowned upon the guy in the middle. After all, Anna was also fighting this guy. They thought Anna was a part of the Demon Banner Army as well.


"What"s going on?"


"There seems…"


The people were whispering, wondering what had happened. Some were still running away, but half of them actually stayed to understand the situation first.


Since they would become his weakness, Noel hurriedly moved toward the edge of the roof, standing between the enemy and the citizens. He pointed to the gate and shouted, "Go to the gate. I can"t protect all of you with an enemy like this."


"!!!" The people snapped. They almost forgot what they had planned to do earlier.


"Aaaahhhh!"


"Run!"


"Hurry up!"


The people began to run away as they realized they would die if the enemies tried to harm them.


At the same time, Anna charged forward, slicing the guy"s neck.


"Kh!" The mysterious guy blocked the sword, but Noel hurriedly used the Runes again, boosting their abilities.


Increase Agility Rune.


Strength Blessing Rune.


With these two runes, Anna"s raw strength was equal to that of a Spirit Master.


"What? How can she be this strong?" The guy was shocked and soon noticed the trick was the runes earlier. Still, Noel"s ability was very versatile, and it astounded him.


He had the ability to bind someone, support his teammate, and release a powerful attack.


Unfortunately, no matter what thought appeared in his mind, Anna would be there to stop him.


"The Count!" Anna suddenly shouted.


Noel didn"t know Anna"s reason for shouting "The Count" earlier. After all, Anna wasn"t obligated to protect the Count. No, she was actually planning to harm the Count. So, that shout earlier must not be her request to help the Count.


Instead, she was planning to do something to the Count by using that guy.


"Ah?! That guy is connected to the Count? But if he"s connected openly, he won"t hesitate to state his ident.i.ty. The fact that he doesn"t state his ident.i.ty means their relationship shouldn"t be known." Noel, once again, saw Anna"s improvement. This wasn"t something possible before, but because she released that information, Noel had a new plan in his mind.


He glanced to the side, looking for the Count. It didn"t take too long for him to find the carriage among the crowd.


And Noel said, "Seven minutes. Let"s finish him in seven minutes."


"Talk about a challenge. He"s a Spirit Master…" Anna clicked her tongue, but she soon smiled as if getting fired up. She was up to the challenge.


Noel also smirked as he began the offensive.


Meanwhile, the mysterious guy gritted his teeth, never thinking Anna would have an ally in the Demon Banner Army.


He was completely fooled by the Count.


"Did the Count fool me? He wanted to send me to Anna so that he could kill me? Don"t tell me… He"s already aware of this situation and rejects my proposal… He dares to reject the Supreme Devil Organization?" The guy was angry, not only at the two kids before him but also at the Count.


"I"m going to kill all of you."
