Muse thought of getting on the horse and running away immediately but she could not move when she saw Rody on the bed

Rody saw her in a daze He laughed and loudly said, ” Hey idiot, what are you thinking about?”

His words made Muse feel warhed and entered the city Rody then looked at Dark and said, ”Mister Dark, please enter I still have a lot of things I want to ask you”

Dark gave a crooked sleamed as he pretended like he accidentally saw the Tulip Family's banner As Dark followed him into the city, an officer suddenly ran down fro down on the bed and ireets Your Excellency the Duke!”

Those words resounded like thunder to Dark and his heart pounded He suddenly stopped and his expression changed as he looked at Rody

Rody are of his stare and he frowned ”Mister Dark, what's wrong?”

Dark could not help it but he stepped back He looked straight at Rody His voice was hoarse ”You are the Duke of the Tulip Family?”

Rody gave a wry so, I was still in enemy territory so I dared not mention it”

Dark's expression changed again He took a deep breath and asked again, ”You really are the Duke of the Tulip Family? The Radiant Empire's Duke of the Tulip Family?”

Rody frowned and replied, ”Yes, I have only recently inherited the title”

Dark looked at Rody and laughed loudly It sounded like he was desperate He instantly pulled out his scimitar and roared as he rushed towards Rody

It was a surprise that nobody expected Before the soldier beside Rody could respond, Dark had already knocked him down Dark raised his sharp sciround

In a hurry, Rody could not dodge properly so, he rolled away He narrowly avoided the attack only to hear the sound of screa The soldier, who carried his stretcher was cut into two Dark saw Rody rolling away and he flipped his sword to slash at hiain

Muse's had the fastest reaction When Muse saw that Dark had already begun to swing his sword, she quickly jumped over to cover Rody's body She screamed as Dark slashed her back However, it was done in a haste therefore, the slash did not hit any vital areas Muse just felt the pain on her back Soon, she felt dizzy and she fainted

The officer as kneeling on the ground also reacted quickly He ed to block Dark's third slash By then, the other soldiers had all pulled out their swords as they rushed towards Dark

Rody was lost when Muse threw herself on top of him and screamed in pain He automatically held her and touched the fresh blood on her back When she fainted, Rody felt a piercing pain in his heart and he almost teared up

Several soldiers quickly pulled Rody and Muse to a secure location at the back They then formed a circle around them to protect them

Dark kicked the officer at his side He saw that Rody was protected by a group He knew that he would not be successful that day He was filled with hatred but without any other choice, he could only withdraw and escape

The soldiers started to give chase but Rody suddenly shouted, ”Do not chase hinaled with his eyes for the archers beside him, to put down their bows and arrows Dark ran a couple of steps and noticed that nobody was chasing him He could not help but turned around to look

He saw Rody standing up with the support of a soldier After that, Rody loudly said, ”Without lanced at Muse before he gritted his teeth and asked, ”Mister Dark, why do you want to kill me?”

In the distance, Dark's face was pale as he fiercely replied, ”I am an honest man! At first, I did not know that you were the Duke of the Tulip Faht that you were a noble I heard that the Duke of the Tulip Family was in Watt Fortress I wanted to take this opportunity to follow you so that I could enter the city and assassinate him! Hmph, count your lucky stars! If I had known you were the Duke of the Tulip Fao!”

Rody replied loudly, ”I respect you for saving our lives but why do you hate me so much that you want to kill me?”

Dark did not avert his gaze and kept his eyes on Rody He then exclaimed, ”I am not afraid to tell you! I was one of your father's subordinates! However, your father personally killed rasslands My life's greatest desire is to kill the Tulip Fae my brother!”

Rody sighed He was surrounded by soldiers and it would have been easy to give an order for the archers to shoot him down However, that person had saved his life As such, Rody could not bring himself to do it

Gritting his teeth Rody shouted, ”Give hio!”

The soldiers were dulared at Rody and hatefully shouted, ”Duke of the Tulip Family, even if you do not kill me today, I will find another opportunity in the future and still kill you!” After he finished speaking, he took out his bow and shot an arrow The arro and eate The arrow shook Without looking at his horse, Dark turned around and rode away

Rody was furious He looked at Muse in his ar pain in his heart He then shouted, ”Quickly, get thespells as well!”

He was actually very weak but he forced himself to stand up and speak loudly The moment he started to relax, he felt drowsy and soon fell unconscious However, he did not forget to hold on to Muse's hand
