Chp. 44 Seeing what happened (2)

 

"Hah, it had not yet been two days and these trashes cannot handle the waves anymore? How embarrassing for them, three Saints are watching over them and they give this weak performance." The voice of Rollo echoed as he walked forward towards the gates.

 

"Young Master, please observe proper decorum during our stay here as it might affect the name of Beham. The Duchess does not take kindly towards the negative rumors that affects the house." It was then Philip's voice was heard.

 

The duchess nodded as she sipped her tea while the Duke watched on but nobody noticed the sweating face of the Seer other than the young Bella.

 

But she kept quiet as she too watched the view change towards the small passage where Rollo and his party arrived in a tense situation. They could not see much as the soldier and adventures were tightly packed together.

 

But it seems Rollo has not picked up on the situation when the Duke and the others that watched could see the fear and alertness of the people around him.

 

"Young master, I think it is better we tread lightly from now on." Philip seemed to have noticed too as he gave the advice.

 

"Che… these peasants are just a bunch of pussies. You can't expect much from commoners…" Rollo's voice sounded out but the Duchess, Darion and some in the Great Hall frowned at these words. Even the Duke noticed the expression of his wife making him lament inside how his son seems to have no filter in his mouth.

 

"They seem to not care of brother's comment…" Bella pointed this fact out as the adventurers and the Soldiers seemed to be still in fear. Most people would attract ire at this point but Rollo seemed to misunderstand.

 

"See Philip, these commoners do not even argue because they know it is true. Now let us see what we were called to deal with." Rollo had walked forwards enough to be able to see the situation in front.

 

"Huh? Just this?" Rollo said as his eyes locked on the boar rider in front.

 

But at that moment the Duke and the others were stunned as they looked at the famous figures standing in front.

 

"Wait!" the Duke said to the seer as the recording paused. He looked intently at the three backs that stood strong in the front.

 

"Wait, didn't Rollo mention that there were three Saints?" The duchess said as she looked at the female figure in the trio. "Could it be?"

 

"Yes, it is Lady Imelia herself." The Duke said as he recognized the third person.

 

"So there are three Saint level present, so how did your son get to this situation?" Darion asked but it was then Bella observed another detail.

 

"Look at the shadows behind!" her voice made the others look and see the gigantic silhouettes of the Beast Lords.

 

"Wildland Beast Lords!" Darion stood up as he recognize two of the shadows. He was a muscle brain and he had aspired to once have a decent fight against the brawniest of the beast in the continent.

 

And the Spirit Ox Lord and the Behemoth came up on that list. The Duke and Duchess also noticed this too but they knew all the others.

 

"The Poison Marsh Lord and a Tyrant Bear!" a servant of the Duke exclaimed as he realized the other two.

 

"So that's how it is, then the Saints must be in peril right now having to fight these four fearsome beast." The Duke said as he sat back down on his seat.

 

"But wait! Brother's wounds are man-made! Only the Tyrant Bear has claws to slice on the four but brother would be a paste already if it was the Tyrant bear that he faced." Bella said as she saw her brother gaining a stable complexion.

 

"Seer, continue the recording…" the Duchess realized this too and ordered the seer.

 

"Uhmm…" the seer looked unsure as he had already seen the rest and he was not sure how to show it to them as he too found the situation so extremely… the seer was at a lost until he found the most appropriate word, pathetic.

 

"Go on, show us!" the Duke said in impatience as he wanted to see if there was someone targeting his son if the wound is indeed man-made.

 

Soon the recording continued and they saw a spell form extremely fast in the Young master's hands.

 

"Why are all of you waiting here like bitches cowering in fear? We have three saint level experts here and two S-ranked teams, we could probably kill every beast in the wildslands with just us…" Rollo's voice sounded out not realizing the surprise and shock of the people around him as his view was on the one riding the boar in front.

 

 

"No…could that be the new Saint?" the young Lady Bella was wide eyed as she and the other realized that Rollo was aiming for the rider in gold.

 

"Tsk tsk tsk… I thought it would be a swarm of S-class beast but just a bumpkin orc riding a weak B-rank Hill boar wearing shitty armor. Just kill them like this and don't bother me again…" Rollo still did not see the faces in front as they were covered by the other A-rank teams from his sight and sent a lightning bolt towards Marc as soon as he saw him.

 

"Ughh…right in front of the esteemed figures too…" The Duchess covered her face with her hands as she realized who might have been the one in front of the three Saints. They would probably converse with those of equal stature seeing that the rider seemed to be on the side of the Beast Lords.

 

*CRACKLE*

 

*BOOM*

 

"See that? That is how you clean up animals like that, who would have thought that a single Orc could deter all of you here. Bunch of trashes…hmmm? Your still alive? Well eat this tra-" Rollo laughed in arrogance as he started to show magical casting with his hands but he was suddenly silent as the recording became fuzzy.

 

"So you all want a fight that bad?" it was then a cold voice that dripped killing intent was heard. Even the people watching a recording felt the anger and fury in the voice.

 

'This idiot brother of mine…' Bella was stunned with a blank face as she and the other realized what the young master just did. It was then they heard another voice which was like a deep baritone voice of a giant, soon they found where the sound was coming from but the young master was still stunned as a pair of glowing amber eyes has locked on to him.

 

"Very well, let us see how you will all kill us in the Wildlands!" The Tyrant Bear roared as he stood up while glowing tattoos made up of runes and glyphs shone on his fur.

 

"RIBBIT." Then deep rumbling sound echoed out making the Duke and the others realize the Poison Marsh King made a move.

 

"*Snort*" then the fog parted from a strong gust of wind coming from the Spirit Ox Lord but it showed the watcher the situation where thousands of beast now snarled and roared ready to attack.

 

They saw the Behemoth's eyes shine red as it bellowed a deafening roar that reached back towards the Wildlands.

 

*ROAR!!*

 

The Tyrant Bear was not to be outdone as he too roared.

 

"YOU FOOL!" then they saw Saint Pettun shout towards Rollo red faced angry but the young master cannot move as Marc has locked on to him.

 

From there they saw how the Sage Bertun try to pacify Marc which only the Duchess noticed to be weird. As well as how Lady Imelia seemed to want to place the blame on the Kingdom, she found the Sage's actions also weird.

 

But what happened next was a serious of stupid decisions as the young master Rollo panicked as fear can be heard from his voice. And he sent his slaves to fight Marc still not noticing the Three Saints in front as he pulled out a rune stone.

 

"The Thunderer's Rune!" Bella stood up in shock as well as others as they did not think Rollo would suddenly pull out an item the ancestor left to protect his descendants.

 

There they saw how even Saint Pettun moved to stop him as well as Philip but it was too late as Lighting shot out but they also saw how Marc pulled out a spear when the young master pulled out the rune.

 

After that they saw how Saint Pettun tried to protect Rollo but he was attacked by the Gigantic frog. But they could see in the cleared up area that Sage Bertun is fighting the Tyrant Bear who is able to talk the common tongue and that Lady Imelia protected the Adventurers as well as the soldiers.

 

But they also noticed the Behemoth as well as the Spirit Ox lord watched Lady Imelia tightly. There they saw the new Saint arrive in front of the young master and realized the Boar was an S-class beast the Steel back Boar.

 

They saw how Rollo pissed himself silly as he sat on the ground scared and how Philip did his all to block a simple attack from Marc so he could attached the recall rune on the young master.

 

But before Rollo was taken away by the rune they saw how the new Saint pushed everyone near him back and strike again towards Rollo.

 

Thankfully this time the three female Slaves tackled Marc that caused him to swerve slightly but they can still see Rollo's hands getting cut off before he was pulled away by the rune.
