() Bill hated their arrogant tone, especially the man's tone, which was a bit high, which made him feel even more displeased.

(I can’t get along with this kind of person!) To put it simply, this is the conclusion.

"It seems that negotiations have broken down." Dini said sarcastically.

"That's called negotiation!" Bill said angrily.

"Don't be angry with me." Dini tilted his head.

"Deedlit, cover us!" Bill said and rushed out.

Deedrit nodded and released Sylph's power with Bill as the center.

Countless bows and arrows flew over again, but they were completely unable to get close to Bill.

"You bad guys have shown your true colors!"

The long-haired man shouted, taking out the stick from his waist and waving it around.

“A comfortable atmosphere that guides you to a peaceful sleep!”

Bill, who rushed towards him, knew that this was a spell in ancient Chinese language, and could not help feeling a chill on his back. Only when he looked closer did he realize that this man was wearing the robe of a sage, and that he was a magician.

The scene of the duel with Kara emerged in his mind. Bill concentrated his energy and began to fight against the enemy's spell.

"That person is a magician!" Deedlit also shouted in panic, and concentrated her energy again, ordering the wind elf to cast the Silence Spell.

However, it was no longer possible to stop the first incantation recited by the other party.

Bill stopped breathing and kept running forward.

The spell took effect when he was about ten steps away from the long-haired man, and Bill's head began to feel heavy.

However, Bill is more familiar with magic than the average person, so he also knows several ways to combat magic.

Therefore, when Bill knew that he was going to recite magic, he concentrated his mind and tried his best to resist the effect of magic on his mind.

He seems to be using the "Sleep Cloud" spell.

This is just elementary magic, and it is far behind Kara or Slein. It can only be regarded as barely passing. It seems that he is just a magician who has not yet debuted.

Bill successfully resisted the long-haired man's spell and rushed to him.

"My magic is useless!?"

A surprised expression appeared on the long-haired man's face, but he still calmly took out his small sword and attacked his opponent.

But it was too late. The angry warrior had already rushed in front of him, holding a shining sword in his hand.

"Sahilu is in danger!" someone shouted from behind.

Bill made a fist with his left hand that was not holding the sword and punched him in the abdomen. He wanted to use his kicks to avoid it, but Bill blocked the blow with his armor and punched him deeply with all his strength.

Entered the opponent's abdomen.

The long-haired man involuntarily bent over and fell forward.

The other people hurriedly fired their bows and arrows like crazy, trying to distance the two groups of people from each other.

But from just now to now, no arrow has been able to hit this man, and even the long-haired man's ancient language magic can't defeat him. Judging from this man's movements, he should be a well-trained warrior. No matter how hard they try, they can't defeat him.

You can't beat him.

When they knew this, their courage completely collapsed.

Judging from the way they dispersed in a hurry, you knew they were definitely not trained soldiers.

"Why would they?" Bill whispered after heaving a sigh of relief.

After they disappeared without a trace, Bill waved to Deedlit and others.

After that, Bill carefully observed the magician who was lying on the ground and pressing his stomach in pain. He was probably under twenty years old. Even though he might be older than he looked due to his appearance, he should not be older than Bill.

"You are too pushy," Marsh said as if he couldn't bear it after the group came to Bill.

"Rather than waiting for the opponent to make a move, it would be better for us to strike first. But I never thought he would be a magician in ancient languages..."

"That's right, but you still resisted his magic." A relieved expression appeared on Deedlit's face.

"That's because his magic is not yet proficient, otherwise I would be the one who fell to the ground."

In the blink of an eye, Dini skillfully tied up the long-haired man with hemp rope and tied his hands behind his back.

"This should eliminate the need for magic?"

As if mocking the man who was still in pain, Dini lightly kicked him from behind.

Then Marsh carried him on his shoulders.

"Maybe there will be another batch!" Bill looked uneasily in the direction where the others were escaping.

And just as Bill was worried, someone else came after a while.

A man wearing dark clothes walked straight towards here.

Although it was a bit unclear, he was indeed getting closer.

"It's strange to have only one, I have a bad feeling," Dini said as if he was cursing.

"That's right. We should be careful. He must not be an ordinary person." Xiude rarely agreed with his companion.

Deedlit was also observing nervously and paying attention to his every move, hoping to know what her opponent was capable of.

(He is!) When the other person came close enough to see clearly, Deedlit's nervousness turned into joy.

"how's it going?"

Noticing Deedlit's change, Bill asked with concern.

"Don't worry, that person must be Slein!" Tidley said happily. "He is indeed safe and sound!"

When Bill heard these words, memories kept resurfacing in his heart. The thick nostalgia gave him a feeling of elation all over his body.

Bill rushed out, shortening the distance with Slein in one breath.

Of course Deedrit followed.

"Shilein!" The two voices sounded at the same time, echoing throughout the forest.

After enjoying the brief joy of reunion, Slein asked Bill to release the magician named Saixilu and apologize for his rudeness.

"This village is not completely peaceful. In addition, there have been many refugees from Alanya recently to escape the war. In order to maintain order, they have to form a self-defense group. The two Dukes of Rasta and Amosun

They have all been dazzled by the war and do not take the suffering of the people seriously."

In addition, I heard from Shilein that Saixilu was a student who entered as a trainee when he was studying at the Sage Academy, so he can be said to be Shilein's junior.

After the collapse of the academy, he entered a private school run by a tutor. However, due to disagreements with the tutor, he came to Saxony to study with Schlein.

Shilein didn't seem to have specifically accepted him as his disciple, but Saixilu himself always respected him as a mentor.

"He is very much like someone from before. He always does things without thinking too much. I always tell him to act with caution."

"Who is the person you are talking about?" Bill on the side smiled bitterly.

"Actually, it hasn't changed even now. The showdown between these two just now was really exciting!" Deedlit also joined the conversation.

"That's what I was about to say, Deedlit, your mouth is really as poisonous as before!"

Shlein's words caused bursts of laughter.

After returning to this place for a long time, I always feel that it is both the same and different from before. The trees around the village have been cut down and replaced by new houses.

"They are all refugees from Aram. For them we have to open up new land and resist foreign enemies. We also have to pay attention to possible conflicts between the new arrivals and the old residents."

"The village chief has asked Teacher Shilein to take charge of the mediation work." Saixilu said majestically.

"It's really hard work to have an apprentice like this." After hearing what Bill said, Saixilu fell silent again.

"Don't blame him so much. In fact, he has done a good job. He is responsible for managing the entire self-defense group and has saved this village several times. Even though he looks like this, in fact, he is also well-read in poetry and management of the organization. He also has a good way. But the only shortcoming is that he always likes to fight with the warrior's method..."

Bill knew this very well. The reason Sehiru used that high-pressure attitude in the forest was just in case. If a negligence caused the village to be in danger, it would be the most unacceptable. But as a magician, he It is natural to keep a distance from your opponent to gain an advantage, because once you get close, the advantage will definitely be on the warrior's side.

In fact, Sehiru is the type with a strong sense of responsibility.

It can be said that he has the most suitable character for Wallis Paladin.

"Do you smell anything burning?" Deedlit suddenly smelled it and asked Slein.

Shilein also tried to smell it carefully, but after all, his senses were not as sharp as those of the goblins, and he couldn't smell anything at all.

"Look! There's thick smoke coming out of there! Is it burning the mountain? Or is it being attacked by the enemy?"

Upon hearing the word "attack", Sehiru immediately changed his expression and looked directly in the direction Deedlit pointed.

Slein slowly turned his head. He didn't seem nervous at all.

"That's someone burning weeds in the forest. There are many people there, so it won't cause a fire. It's no problem."

"What are you talking about! You are burning the forest!"

Deedlit asked Slein passionately.

"Forests are of course a valuable asset to us, but we need new land for farming. When you burn weeds like that, the ash left behind becomes fertilizer, grows better crops, and saves money. At the time of felling, we always water and burn on days when the wind is relatively weak, so we don’t have to worry about the fire spreading.”
