Chapter 459: The Old Bastard and the Little Bastard

“Legion Commander? Your aura……” Reyes couldn’t believe his eyes. After he made sure that it was Fei, he was shocked; he couldn’t believe that the Legion Commander increased his strength again by this much in just a day. From the sensation he got, he knew that Fei was now a Moon-Class Elite.

This discovery shocked and disappointed him.

He thought back to his claims of defeating [One Sword] and the King of Chambord during the competition among the affiliated kingdoms, and they were all a joke now! Since [One Sword] and the King of Chambord had grudges between them, [One Sword] decided to join another legion and went to Eindhoven Battle Zone to accumulate military merits. He, on the other hand, joined [Wolf Teeth Legion] because he was curious about Fei and respected Fei. He thought he would one day catch up to the King of Chambord, but it seemed like the distance between them was getting bigger and bigger.

“Yes, I’m a Moon-Class Elite now,” Fei smiled and replied as he pulled back his power.

Although Reyes was a little arrogant, he wasn’t a bad person, and he was quite straightforward.

The Joy Sorrow Separate Gather Sword Array he used when battling [One Sword] was a high-level technique. It was able to control other people’s emotions, and it would be terrifying if it was cast by someone who had a ton of Warrior Energy. Even if this technique wouldn’t be considered as a Mythical Technique, it was at least a Legendary Technique.

Fei treasured talents like Reyes, and he unleashed some of his power to deter Reyes and decrease the arrogance in his nature. If the opportunity was there, the King would want to officially recruit this young man just like Shevchenko.

After all, if Chambord wanted to stand straight in this chaotic world, it couldn’t solely rely on Fei.

“This Death Ancient City is complex; how is the search going?” Fei looked around and saw that all the soldiers were in cloth armor. Although Star-level Warriors like Reyes were able to resist the magnetic field in the city, the ordinary soldiers would be stuck to the ground if they wore metal armors.

There were lights in the city.

Some of the old wooden buildings were torn down, and the wood pieces were used to lit up campfires. This is the only way that the soldiers could fight against the chilliness in the desert at night.

“Sir, the city is mostly cleaned. Except for bones, nothing else was found. This is really a city of death……” Reyes reported to Fei.

Suddenly, he thought of something and said with a strange expression on his face, “Sir, two powerful masters came to the city half an hour ago. We couldn’t defeat them…… It was fortunate that they didn’t want to injure anyone. They took over the main palace and are currently resting in there…… They asked Ms. Cindy to cook and serve the……”

“What?” Fei was shocked. The people who could enter the city without using that secret passage were all Moon-Class Elites! There was no way that the soldiers of Zenit in this city could deal with them!

He quickly asked, “Who are they? What do they look like?”

“One of them looks like a homeless mid-aged mage, and the other person is a little boy. That little boy looks as cute as an angel, but he is mighty. I couldn’t even move when he stared at me……” Reyes said quietly; it looked like this [Silver-Armored Vicious Sword] was in a big disadvantage against that little boy. After a moment of pause, he added while rubbing his arm, “We couldn’t contact you right away, so we could only wait for you. It is fortunate that you came so soon.”

“Eh, it is my bad. I didn’t give you guys a way of contacting me for urgent matters,” Fei nodded and said.

At this moment, Fei was almost sure that these two masters described by Reyes were the mid-aged man and the child that Shevchenko and his team encountered yesterday. Fei was curious about them, and he didn’t anticipate them coming to Death Ancient City. Since they didn’t injure any soldiers, they shouldn’t be the vicious and murderous kind. Therefore, Fei was eager to see them.

“Take me to them,” Fei said as he walked towards the main palace inside the city.

“Old Bastard! Didn’t you tell me that no one would be in here? Where did these 30,000 people come from?” a little boy who was holding a roasted piglet leg and devouring it complained as he sat on the stone chair in the main palace.

“Little Bastard! Keep your mouth clean……” the mid-aged mage’s eating etiquette was even worse than that of the little boy’s. As he chugged down a mouthful of wine and chewed the roasted meat, he cursed back.

Then, he rubbed his messy hair with his greasy hand.

“This is beyond my expectation! How did a military troop enter this city? This is the first time in tens of hundreds of years…… Little girl, tell Grandpa how you guys avoided that deadly quicksand moat and Berserk Metal-Eating Ants.” he said that to Magic Princess Cindy who was turning roasted meat on the metal skewers.

“Since you masters could come in here, we can too. There is nothing special as our Legion Commander Alexander could do anything,” she said calmly. Although she was forced to cook and serve these two strange people, she acted collectedly.

As she sat on a stone chair by the fire, she placed one hand on her knee as she rotated that adequately cleaned piglet on the roasting rack. She hummed a no-name melody as a bright smile appeared on her beautiful face, and it looked like she was not nervous at all as a captive.

After seeing this, that boy Arthur whistled excitedly and giggled, “Hehe, Old Bastard, did you see that? This hottie isn’t scared of you at all!”

Then, he whistled at Cindy and said lustfully, “Hottie, you are lovely. In fact, you are even more beautiful than Saintess Janice many years ago. Can I have the honor and invite you to the rooftop to enjoy the moonlight?”

He sounded exactly like an obscene person.

However, this obscene expression looked really strange on the face of this boy who looked like he was about nine years old; it seemed quite ridiculous and could make people laugh.

The mid-aged man got very angry and threw a piece of bone at this boy. Crack! This bone turned into bone dust when it landed on this boy’s head, and it dealt no damage to him. On the other hand, this boy named Arthur kept looking at Cindy with his big and cute eyes.

“Haha!” the Magic Princess laughed and said while covering her mouth with her hand, “Little guy, you are too little!”

After hearing this, Arthur instantly got disappointed and looked sad like a deflated balloon. He bit the meat in front of him and said to the mid-aged man angrily, “It is all your fault, Old Bastard! Such a sick human being…… Why did you give me this child body?”

“Little Bastard! I remember that you were very pleased with this body of yours! Count it yourself! How many times have you taken advantage of beautiful girls? Most of the girls would find you super cute and hug you non-stop!” the mid-aged mage retorted.

“Yuck! It was all a part of your prank! You are sick! What can I do to the girls? I want to grow up!” the little boy said in frustration.

Magic Princess Cindy shook her head and smiled at these two people; she wasn’t as nervous as before. Although these two people were strange and powerful, it didn’t seem like they were terrible or bad. Even though they messed around with each other, she was still able to sense the deep bond between this strange combination of the two.

However, what the mid-aged mage said made Cindy blush.

When she saw this boy named Arthur, she had the urge of wanting to hug him and pinch his cheeks. This boy was way too cute; his big, shiny, and bright eyes could convince anyone about how naïve he was, and it was hard for females to defend against that.

“But there is such an obscene mind hidden behind this cute face……” Cindy thought to herself; she was completely speechless.

However, she was quite envious of these two people as they kept it real; they spoke their minds and could do anything they wanted to do just like the King of Chambord. However, this princess who had multiple burdens on her shoulder could never achieve this level of freedom.

“Hehe, even if you don’t tell me, I know that there must be a secret passage in this city, and that is how you guys entered this place,” that mid-aged mage suddenly smiled and said to Cindy who was thinking back to her responsibilities; at the moment, the mid-aged mage and the boy had stopped fighting.

Of course, the other potential possibility was that the soldiers of Zenit got teleported in here by a spatial magic array. However, this mid-aged man didn’t sense the surge of unique magic elements in the city, and this type of magic array was mystic and precious; a small level 1 empire like Zenit couldn’t have it.
