400 The Many Unexpected Changes (2/2)
In Arthen's team, a black tornado was summoned. Several nobles were scooped up high by the wind force and in the next second thrown to the ground fiercely. They directly passed out.
No one could resist the power of a level-five blood power caster without the strength of a grand knight or the same level extraordinary magic or divine items. However, Sophia was clearly restraining herself as she had no plan on killing them, or it would bring her big troubles when she got out.
In the tornado, however, Arthen was as steady as a big rock. In a few seconds, he had come in front of Lucien and launched his attack!
Lucien also wielded his sword from the bottom to the top, and Frost directly hit Arthen's level-five magic sword.
Bang!
To Lucien's great surprise, he felt no strength in Arthen's sword.
With a single hack, Arthen was blown backward as if there was some fierce wind, and as soon as he hit the ground, he kept moving back.
At this time, Lucien heard an exclamation from behind. In the next second, the soft female body ran straight into him. Then with several strong magic waves, four transparent walls had surrounded them!
”Claire… What are you doing!?” Sophia angrily asked Claire, who was standing outside of the walls. It was Sophia who ran into Lucien, and her shield of wind already had many cracks.
Claire smiled coldly, ”Your Highness, I have always been on Arthen's side.”
”Claire, you…!” Sophia was so pissed that she was speechless.
Lucien noticed that Relph was also in the wall trap when Relph questioned Claire furiously, ”You are with the royal family, aren't you? Why are you helping Arthen?”
Slightly frowning, Lucien stared at the transparent wall in front of them. To him, the way the power was flowing in the walls and how the magic symbols were changing were strange.
At this time, except for Arthen, Claire, and the several nobles who had passed out on the ground, the rest of them were all trapped.
They finally realized the truth. A young noble yelled, ”You were the one who changed the magic circles. It was you!”
”Hahahaha…” laughed Arthen loud, ”I'll have nothing to worry when you all die! There is no way that Claire will want to fight against me because of the dukedom! Soon she will marry the prince!”
”Is that you, my brother?” Sophia finally understood everything, and she turned to look at the other direction with a smile.
”Sophia, you're never my target. I was just wondering how our father managed to make the breakthrough and reach the legendary level. However, it is also not bad if I can take advantage of this and kill you, my sister. I know what you are doing, Sophia.” From the other entrance of the hall, prince Beyer walked in calmly.
Claire hurriedly walked to the prince, with an admiring look on her radiant face. Obviously, she had fallen in love.
Arthen said to the prince respectfully, ”Your Highness, Sir Metatron only promised to give us five minutes. We have to do this now.”
”Turn on the anti-magic circles and let out the toxic gas and golems. Sophia is the only one you have to be careful with. Then, find Deniz and finish him,” said Beyer as if he was just dealing with something very unimportant.
Arthen took out a colorful stamper of the size of a fist and walked to Beyer. He was ready to end the nobles' lives.
All of a sudden, a bright light flashed.
The look on Arthen's face froze. In the next second, he was rolling back and forth on the ground. A pool of blood came out from underneath Arthen's body.
All of them in the transparent wall trap saw the prince coldly pulling out his sword from Arthen's chest.
”Why… Why?” Arthen did not die right away because of his power as a grand knight. However, if he did not receive treatment as soon as possible, his death was just a matter of time.
Beyer put on a triumphant smile. ”It would be even better if my love was also the Duchess of the Gorse family.”
There was also a big smile on Claire's face. She was looking at Beyer as if he was her idol.
Beyer took a step forward. He was about to behead Arthen to end his life.
Suddenly, a thick bolt of lightning dropped from the ceiling, and it hit the sword right before it hacked at Arthen's neck!
”Deniz!” Claire was shocked. She had no idea how long Deniz had been hiding, and why he did not take action earlier.
The look on Beyer's face suddenly changed when green wind ropes bound his wrists and ankles tight.
Smiling while holding her staff, Sophia walked out of the transparent walls without any effort.
Meanwhile, the light of a spell, Curing Wind, gently fell onto Arthen's chest.
Some of Relph's people were now keeping Lucien in control; some had surrounded Claire, and others were helping Deniz.
”You…?!” With all the constraints, as the man who was close to becoming a radiant knight, Beyer was still able to block Deniz's attacks in succession.
Arthen coughed, ”Your Highness, all of us are the knights of the princess.”
White wings spread out behind Sophia, covered with many green light spots as if the wind elves were flying around her.
...
Duda, hiding in the corner, was gasping hard with his lowered head. Suddenly, he saw a pair of brand new boots walking toward him.
