It was not until Mike finished speaking that these guards had finally come to their senses. Of course, in reality, it had only been a few seconds.
“Capture these two guys, they killed the Captain!”
“We can’t let them go!”
“Prepare for battle, the enemy is very dangerous!”
When Timus heard what the guards said, he was completely shocked. ‘Please, I didn’t do anything!! Why would they arrest me too!!!’ he thought to himself.
Of course, no one cared about this.
Everyone saw Timus and Mike as accomplices, even Timus and Mike themselves thought so.
Timus had no choice but to take out his weapon — Sword of Meredith. “Sigh, it’s so troublesome, why do I have to encounter such a thing?” Timus had a depressed look on his face as he steadied his stance against the guards in front of him.
.
Mike, on the other hand, smiled slightly and said, “Isn’t this very interesting?” As Mike spoke, one of the guards had already raised the long sword in their hand and slashed at Mike.
However, before the long sword could hit Mike, his body fell on to the ground like a corpse. His neck suddenly cracked and a large amount of blood gushed out. Then, the corpse on the ground turned from one to two.
From the beginning till the end, Mike did not seem to have made any movements. He only communicated with Timus. “Look, clearly, we didn’t do anything, but these guards suddenly rushed over and attacked us, and then suddenly died. Such an interesting thing, can this occur in other places too?”
“The elves are really interesting.” As Mike spoke, he smiled at the guards in front of him. His smile was full of mockery. Just as Mike had said, they had indeed ‘done nothing’.
Even if Mike had really done something, these guards did not have any evidence.
But they had taken the initiative to attack, and all of them had died on their own. The expressions of the guards became very ugly. Everyone was very clear that whether it was the captain who died or the comrade who died just now, it must have been this cloaked guy in front of them who killed them.
However, they also understood one thing.
This guy in front of them seemed to be very powerful. He was simply not a match for them.
“Stop pretending to be innocent! You said you were going to kill us all!” One of the young guards nervously shouted.
Mike spread his hands and asked, “When did I say I was going to kill you all?”
“You said that if we were still alive, you would let us pay for the cleaning fee,” the young Elf Guard answered quickly.
“Yes, I did say that, but when did I say that I would kill you?”
“In fact, I only saw your captain’s neck suddenly spurting blood and falling to the ground. One of your guards also suddenly attacked and fell to the ground.
“As for me, I’m just an ordinarily weak, pitiful, and helpless traveler.
“We passed by here and just wanted to come to the tavern for a drink, but we were attacked and interrogated by them.
“Is this the way you elves do things? The elves are too terrifying and barbaric.”
Mike put on a frightened look and raised his hands high.
The guards’ expressions became even uglier.
Weak and helpless???
