Chapter 564: Ambush (1) (2/2)
”Don't worry about it,” the knight named Alice responded in a cold tone. His voice was strange, it was hoarse but attractive, and no one would know if it was a man or woman just by his voice.
”Did you check all the residents here? Did you find the people I need?”
”I'm still working on it… Please give me some more time…”
*BAM*
It sounded like the Mayor was hit by a fist.
Fra's heart was racing, she moved closer to the window and looked down.
In the spacious living room, her father, the Mayor of Town Loria, kneeled on the carpet, and there was saliva dripping down his chin. The Mayor covered his stomach with both hands and there was a tall man with gray hair standing in front of him.
The man was wearing a black eyepatch and his face was covered with scars. His right hand was on the handle of his hammer and he was staring at the Mayor.
Suddenly, the man noticed that there were two beautiful women looking at them with their mouth covered by hands—the two women were standing behind the railings on the second floor. They screamed after they noticed that the man was staring at them.
A hint of cruelty flashed in the man's eyes.
”I didn't expect to find such beautiful women in a small town like this… Gray, I think the Mayor is assisting the wizards! There might be female wizards in his place!”
He turned to the knight behind him and ordered, ”Draw the circle and show the white flag!”
”Sir.” The young knight looked confused. ”He's the Mayor of a town that is owned by the country…”
”What are you afraid of? Do as what I said!” the man named Alice spoke in a deep tone.
Three of the knights in the team also looked at the two women, the female knight was just drawing a cross in front of her chest, it seemed like she was used to a situation like this.
”Master! You can't do something like this! I'll show you the results as soon as possible! I just need a bit more time!” Fear was written all over the Mayor's face and he tried to stop Alice by grabbing his leg.
*BAM*
He was kicked in the stomach by Alice. The Mayor rolled twice on the floor as blood spurted out of his mouth.
”I… I didn't assist any wizard!” The Mayor was begging the man, he did not care that there was blood all over his face. ”Master, please, don't do this!”
Alice stepped forward and drew his sword.
*CHI*
The crossguard sword went through the Mayor's chest and the Mayor's white outfit was soaked in the blood from the fresh wound.
”Ah!”
People on the second floor screamed and they quickly locked the doors.
A terrifying grin appeared on Alice's face.
”I want one of them, you can have the other. You know what you need to do after everything is done.”
He suddenly turned around and waved his hand.
*PA*
A male servant behind the staircase fell to the floor. His head was hit by a silver dagger and he died before he could say anything.
The two knights sneered and left the room.
Fra covered her mouth on the roof, she watched her father die, and there were tears running down her cheeks. Her body was shaking and trembling.
”Ah!”
*BAM BAM*
Men were laughing and women were screaming in the house. Fra also heard something fell to the floor.
Fra knew that she would be in big trouble if she made any noise. This was probably the worst event she had ever witnessed and everything was done by the knights she admired. She was desperate and helpless.
There were several workers and a female guest in the house besides her father and her mother. It was her mother and the female guest who were screaming.
It was no doubt that she had no way to save her family.
The two women finally stopped screaming after a while but their throats were cut open right after. Fra could smell the blood although the window was closed.
”Mother…” she muttered and huddled herself up with her head above her knees.
The female knight searched the house and reported back, ”Sir! We found a painting here, I think the Mayor's son is not here.”
”Don't worry, we can make his son a wanted man. The church's force is arriving soon, we need to hurry!” Alice responded in a cold tone.
