Chapter 249 Two Kings (6)
Even if most people have bad luck, the overall curve of their life is relatively smooth, but Osborne's life has been full of ups and downs.
He was born in a blacksmith family in Brevoir. With his father's exquisite craftsmanship, although he was not rich, at least he was not in poverty.
During the period when the upright and violent Demon King was at his peak, what Osborne saw the most since he was a child were the adventurers coming and going. As the days passed, Osborne grew up day by day. In addition to learning the skills of a blacksmith, Osborne
, and began to be full of longing for adventurers.
So instead of inheriting his father's legacy of swinging a hammer, he went to the Adventurer School in Naspar when he was 15 years old.
Of course, Osborne's experience is far less than that of the legendary 13th generation of Brevo. He was just one of the thousands of young people who joined the ranks of adventurers at that time, and he could only be regarded as slightly famous.
However, the number and quality of the group of adventurers back then were far greater than they are now. A small amount of fame is already quite impressive. Generally speaking, Osborne feels that he is on the rise. In the future, even if he does not leave a name in history, he can at least appear in the Bard.
In the ditty that the poet sang in the tavern to make extra money.
However, Osborne's life was full of ups and downs.
Just when he was proud and ready to show off his grand ambitions, the tyrannical demon king disappeared.
He disappeared without a trace. In an instant, countless adventurers lost their lifelong goals, and at the same time they also lost super high benefits.
A large number of unemployed people were frantically impacting the bottom line of the adventurer industry. Osborne found that no matter how hard he tried, he could not defeat those kings of adventurers. Coupled with the disappearance of his life goals, Osborne was disheartened and had to go home to forge.
That was a gray memory that he couldn't bear to look back on. Although the domestic economy was not greatly affected due to the efforts of Brevo 13, blacksmithing was not what Osborne wanted to do, it was just a means of making a living.
.
He only remembered that he was working step by step like a machine every day, and there was no sunshine in his life. He once received an invitation to the Demon King's revival meeting, and almost walked into this trap.
Until one day, he finally met the woman of his destiny.
The other party was a merchant's daughter who often came to purchase goods. Osborne fell in love with her at first sight, thinking that it was nothing more than an angel falling to the mortal world. Her smiles and smiles were like sunshine, dispelling all the gloom in his heart.
Under the crazy pursuit, the two fell in love quickly and got married at the speed of light three months later. A year later, their daughter was born, and two years later, their son was born.
Since then, Osborne has become very homesick. Although the blacksmith shop is only separated from his home by a wall, he can often see the smiles of his wife and children when he turns around, but he can't help but look around, for fear of coming.
The hard-earned happiness disappears.
As long as he can have the smiles of his family, it doesn't matter who he is as a devil or an adventurer. He seems to have found the direction of his life again.
But unfortunately, Osborne's life still had ups and downs.
The garden party that is held every three years is opening. Since I was quite busy in the past, I really couldn't spare the time. However, Osborne has made some money recently and plans to take his wife and children to the garden party.
This was a decision that he would regret for the rest of his life.
When the devil attacks, even though Osborne hasn't touched a sword in twenty years, his foundation is still there, protecting his family and trying to find a way out.
When he pushed his family into the tent to hide, a violent explosion sounded behind him. Osborne was blown away by the storm, and an unknown object knocked him unconscious.
When he woke up with a bloody head, he saw that the tent where his family was hiding was burning, and there were several fire demons dancing excitedly around him.
That day, Osborne lost everything.
He regretted why he brought his family to the garden party, regretted why he hadn't been more careful, and hated all the devils.
All the regret, unwillingness, sadness, and anger finally turned into two words.
--revenge!
–‐‐——–‐‐——
"Is it you, the guy who summoned the devil?"
Although Osborne's voice was still calm, it was so cold that it was shocking.
"It turns out to be Mr. Osborne. You probably don't know the secret passages of the palace. I'm a little curious, how did you pass through the blockade of my demon army?"
"Stop talking nonsense, I don't have time to chat with you!"
The five-fingered sword swung away the weapon in Randall's hand, and Osborne raised the repeating crossbow, but Randall moved very quickly, and the two arrows fired by the repeating crossbow only hit Randall's shadow on the ground.
Pei Renli leaned against the wall and watched. The two of them moved so fast that it was hard to tell which was which with a slight flicker of their eyes, so the shadow tentacles remained ready to go and were not thrown out casually.
Speaking of which, Perrenli remembered that Osborne sent them to the main road and left on his own. At that time, he said he wanted to have some fun. Could he have fought his way into the palace? This was too fierce.
At this time, the light of the divine spirit around her dimmed, and Michelle completed the emergency treatment on Elysee. The wound seemed to have closed and stopped bleeding, but Elysee's face was still frighteningly pale. It could only be said that she had saved her life for the time being.
.
"I want to go check on Senior Varela first. Can you do it yourself?"
Pei Renli raised his chin:
"No problem, Randall should be busy dealing with Osborne now and has no time to pay attention to us."
Michelle didn't know who Osborne was, but she really had to save Varela quickly, so she didn't continue to ask, picked up the mace and ran over.
The paladin has the ability to heal. Although the amount of milk is not as good as that of the priest, it is easier to use and more convenient. It is equivalent to bringing your own milk.
However, holy healing can only be used when the paladin is awake. It is hard to say whether Varela is in a coma or on the verge of death.
The little tricks they did here really didn't attract anyone's attention. Randall's attention was entirely on Osborne.
The speed of the two of them was too fast, and they were still gradually accelerating.
At first, Perrenli could still see relatively clear images, but soon Osborne turned into a blurry afterimage in his eyes, developing in an invisible direction.
Randall couldn't catch up with his speed, but he should still be within the range that he could see clearly. By moving the position of his shield and sword, he could temporarily resist Osborne's attack.
"For what happened to your family, it was just bad luck."
"luck?"
Osborne's figure appeared on the side of Randall, his eyes under the wide-brimmed hat flashing with the same cold light as the five-fingered sword in his hand:
"What do you think of human life?"
"A tool that can prove one's self-worth. It was the death of many people that made me, the new Demon King, a true King of Kings."
The sword in Osborne's hand was trembling slightly. He was suppressing and controlling his anger, but the rage was as unstoppable as a flood that broke a dam.
He exhaled slightly:
"The water speeds up!"
In the distance, Pei Renli could only see his feet stepping on the blue light, as if he had activated his combat skills, and the next moment he completely disappeared from sight.
But you can still hear the clanking of weapons, and you can also see some crossbow arrows being blocked by Randall and falling at your feet, but you can't see where Osborne is at all.
The high-speed moving wind forced Pei Renli to cover his eyes with his hands, because when the strong wind pressure hit his face, his eyes would feel extremely itchy.
A few more seconds passed, and Osborne's speed seemed to be increasing further, until Perrenli saw a layer of cloud-like white mist explode around Randall, and the harsh and violent explosion came a little late.
What the hell? Does the body break the speed of sound?
Truly powerful warriors, whose physical abilities have completely surpassed the limits of mortals. In comparison, Kaya and the others are still within the realm of mortals. Even Durer, the strongest person Varela and Perrenli have ever seen, is still
There is no departure from this category.
This was the strength of an upper-middle-level adventurer when he was fighting against the tyrannical demon king. Moreover, he had been idle for twenty years, otherwise it would have been even more exaggerated.
Rufas, who attacked the school in the first place, was actually just a low-level fish at the time. Even at the bottom, Pei Renli was very lucky to be able to win against him.
However, Perrenli did not continue to watch. He pushed Elise to the wall, used his staff as a crutch to support him and stood up, and slowly moved sideways.
Michelle is treating Varela. Judging from the healing light that lights up, she is probably seriously injured and may not be much better than Elise.
Osborne is indeed a strong support with exaggerated strength, but Randall still performed well at such a high speed that was difficult to see, perhaps because he knew it well.
For the time being, Osborne did not need and had no room for Perenli to intervene. But seeing Randall's performance, Perenli felt that it was not that simple, so he decided to change positions in advance to avoid affecting Elysee, who had finally saved her life.
As soon as I moved from the wall facing the door to the left, I heard a choking sound.
Osborne's disappeared figure finally became clear, and his five-fingered sword pierced Randall's shoulder.
Originally he aimed at the heart, but the edge of the shield blocked the blade, so he pierced the shoulder.
"A very fast sword, but you should understand that it cannot kill me."
A previous shot of Evil Break almost split Randall's arm vertically, but he could recover in the blink of an eye. A wound caused by a short sword like the five-finger sword should also heal in an instant.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Randall noticed something strange. His wound did not recover.
"What is your sword?"
"The sword of revenge is forged especially for you."
His five-finger sword is engraved with his daughter's name on one side and his son's name on the other, and his wife's and his own names are engraved on the crossbow.
This is revenge that belongs to him, and it is also revenge that belongs to his family.
The loaded crossbow arrow was already aimed at Randall's neck. The arrow with the cold light looked like pure steel and did not have any enchantment, but it could easily penetrate the devil's damage resistance and even terminate Randall's
Regeneration ability.
Osborne's finger was on the trigger and he was about to pull it. Suddenly he seemed to sense danger and jumped away from Randall.
The next moment, a violent shock wave erupted from Randall, and the thick and exquisite marble floor was lifted from underneath, like a huge file, grinding the ground into pits.
Randall moved his neck and rubbed his palm against the wound made by the five-fingered sword. The latter was immediately covered by the power of darkness again.
"You asked me to be more serious."
