Chapter 6:Bad luck of bandits

it was bandits!

Suddenly, dozens of strong men jumped out from the bushes.

Most of their clothes were dirty and tattered, but their expressions were extremely fierce.

The leader was tall and well-proportioned. His face was gloomy, and his narrowed eyes were filled with coldness and cruelty.

"Damn it, do you know who we are?"

Benson strode forward and shouted, "You dare to rob the Lucca Chamber of Commerce?"

Whoosh!

A shooting arrow shot the hat on Benson's head.

If Benson hadn't shrunk his neck so quickly, this arrow would have been nailed to his head.

Benson looked terrified. He quickly climbed onto a carriage and didn't dare to come out again.

Next was the battle between the guards and the bandits.

The two groups of people fought in a melee.

The bandits were obviously stronger.

However, the guards of the Lucca Caravan had received professional training and were well-equipped. They were barely able to fight the bandits to a draw.

This stalemate continued until the leader of the bandits joined the battle.

Once the leader of the bandits joined the battle, the fragile balance was immediately broken.

"A powerful knight!"

Someone shouted loudly.

The knights in this world were not just a title, but a job similar to mages. They also had powerful skills, but they were not as rare and powerful as mages.

The tall bandit wearing leather armor took out a large knight's longsword from his waist.

He slashed down, and a white light flashed on the pitch-black blade.

One of the guards raised the longsword in his hand, wanting to fight against him.

However, both the man and the sword were cut in half by the bandit leader's sword.

"Hahahahaha..."

The bandits cheered.

A cruel smile appeared on the leader's face.

It was as easy as cutting vegetables with the longsword that had the white light. No one could withstand his light attack.

"Combat aura! Only knights above tier 3 can have combat aura!"

Someone shouted in despair.

The leader's face was covered in blood. His face was filled with ferocity and killing intent.

The guards were quickly defeated. More and more people fell down.

The bandits did not stop killing. They wanted to kill all the people in the caravan!

The whole scene became chaotic. The people in the caravan ran in all directions. However, the bandits caught up with them and killed them cruelly.

Benson rolled down from the carriage trembling, his body trembling as if he was standing in the snow with his clothes off.

"It's over! It's all over now!"

Benson's expression was very ugly.

The loss of goods in the caravan was secondary. The most important thing was that his life was about to be lost.

"Young master! Young master!"

Martin, who was hiding under the carriage, called out in a low voice. He was anxious and afraid, looking for figures of both young masters.

Just as the leader was having a good time, a bright red line suddenly streaked across the sky.

The leader looked panicked and subconsciously raised his sword to block it.

It was a fireball!

The fireball hit the long sword and was shattered by the white light on the sword.

Before the leader could breathe a sigh of relief, another fireball came in front of him.

His combat aura had not recovered yet.

Without the support of his combat aura, the longsword instantly turned into a puddle of molten iron under the high temperature of the fireball.

"Ah!"

The leader cried out in pain.

The molten iron from the longsword splashed on his face, causing him to cry out in pain from the heat.

However, he finally found an opportunity. His body rolled nimbly and dodged the third fireball.

This scene happened in an instant. It changed in an instant. Everyone was shocked and stopped what they were doing.

"Mage."

A hoarse voice slowly sounded.

The leader got up from the ground, and his entire face was burnt until it was rotten. It was extremely disgusting.

One eye was even blind, and his other eye was filled with deep hatred and fear.

"What a pity."

A person slowly walked out from the shadow of the carriage.

Everyone looked at him, and their eyes instantly widened.

It was a handsome young man with an indifferent expression, with an indescribable calmness and elegance.

"Young Master!"

"Sir Joelson!"

Young Martin and Benson shouted at the same time.

Their faces were full of excitement and joy. Young Martin saw that his young master was fine, while Benson was glad that he could survive.

"I didn't expect that there was a mage hidden in the small Lucca Caravan."

The leader gritted his teeth and said angrily.

Joelson looked at him indifferently and raised his right hand. A fist-sized fireball appeared in his palm. He could feel the heat even from a distance.

The leader's face suddenly became very frightened.

He turned around and fled without thinking.

The bandit's faces were also full of fear.

"A mage! It's actually a mage!"

"Damn it, run!"

"Ah!"

After a shrill scream, a bandit fell to the ground with a large hole in his chest. His body was emitting a charred smell.

He was obviously the unlucky one who had been hit by the fireball.

This further increased the fear in the hearts of the other bandits.

All the bandits ran in all directions in panic. Some even ran to the road of death.

"What are you waiting for? Go after them!"

Joelson snorted coldly. Only then did the guards of the caravan react and immediately chased after them.

Their morale increased greatly.

The situation immediately turned around. The guards suppressed the bandits and fought them.

Joelson also quickly chased after them.

He could not let the leader, who was at least a 3rd Rank Knight, escape.

Along the way, he casually killed two more bandits who were escaping.

It was a wonderful feeling to have someone else's life in his hands at any time.

Fireballs danced on his fingertips, and each one could easily take a life.

The power of magic was too powerful, and ordinary people could not contend with it.

Only the leader.

He had actually dodged three of his fireballs. It was unbelievable.

"Brother why don't you let me play with him." A voice came from behind the Joelson.

Genesis was waken up by the noise of fighting and when he came to know about that his brother was attacked by the bandits, he was furious beyond control.

Joelson summoned Du Lu and both brothers rode on its back.

He ordered it to fly close to the forest at a low altitude. Not long after, the leader's figure was seen fleeing frantically again who ran before somehow.

His speed was very fast, jumping from the forest like a deer. It was almost impossible to see his figure clearly.

However, no matter how fast he ran with his legs, he could not compare to the flying speed of Du Lu.

"Damn it, I actually met a mage and instantly cast a fireball. Is that kid a monster?"

The leader cursed as he ran.

He felt that the sky above his head suddenly darkened.

He subconsciously turned his head.

The leader's expression was dull, and he was dumbfounded.

A shadow covered the sky, and the leader's face was filled with malevolence.

"What is this?"

This was the thought in his mind.

Before Du Lu can crush this bandit leader under his feet.

Genesis said in completely cold voice that no one heard before , "brother he is my prey, just let me do it."

Brother he don't deserve your this effort." Joelson said try to deny his brother as he saw his brother's dark expression.

Before Joleson could say anything else to change his brother's mind, he was cut by Genesis with the furious expression saying' "Brother i am not asking you, but ordering you to step back and just step back."

When Genesis turned his head towards the Joelson, Joelson saw the look in eyes of genesis and saw death in front of him. He staggered back in his steps and even Du Lu shivered in fear for some reason. And one was being targeted started going crazy.

"How dare you attack my brother, now pay for it with suffering for eternity." Genesis shouted blinded with fury of rage that had enveloped him.

"Gate of hell open for me, capture the soul of my enemy, drag it to the depth of the floors of hell, torture it to the limits of his soul can endure without falling apart." Genesis used this incantation with his hands performing corresponding actions, first he touched both hands together and then separating it completing whole action. When hands separated a gate opened at the back of Genesis .

This gate was the combination with the two colour black and dark red. There was carvings of life like demons on the outside of door. If, someone try to see in the eyes of carved demons then they will notice that they are watching them back as well.

All people at the scene were terrified to such a view. What makes it more gruesome is that when the door opened, many dark golden coloured chains came out of it converging it into the torture instrument. Because when chains wrapped around the bandit captain, then his his body started to rote at the very slow speed increasing his pain, and suffering to the limit.

Just when everyone thought that all is done, then there appeared a soul of bandit leader after his body was burnt to bits. His soul was captured by the chains and dragged to the gate. His tried all efforts that he can do was completely futile in front of chains. He was screaming in agony of anguish pain but was still dragged in gate, and then gate disappeared, making it look like nothing had happened.

But both Joelson and Du Lu knew what they saw before was not their hallucination, and happened in actual. Joelson was confused to how to express his emotions when he saw his brother like this for the first time. But, he now knew that his brother was too possessive and protective of him.

At last, Joelson still coughed and said something to make atmosphere cool down, " Genesis that was amazing. What was that, is that magic or power you created?"

Expressions on face of Genesis was softened when he heard what his brother said. Then Genesis replied saying, " Brother that was soul magic, although may be other people may also have soul magic but this magic spell is unique to me."

"But, brother that was 3- tier knight and your strength is same to him so how can you play with like that." Joelson immediately asked without leaving any chances for Genesis to change the topic.

"Oh, about that, strength of this magic doesn't depend on the strength of caster, but the how strong wish of caster to kill the target. If wish or urge of caster to kill the target is stronger than wish of target to live then no one can save him." Genesis said.

"But, it is primal instinct of every living thing to survive, and live, so how can your wish to kill can be stronger than that." Joelson asked in curiosity, as what he said was common sense.

" Because he dared to attack my brother, attack you, so how can my will to kill can be weak." Gnesis said like he was just stating the facts.

Joelson was having the look on his like now he understood everything now while thinking, ( his brother's wish to kill to that bandit was so strong because he has attacked me, that means he underestimated his brother's love for himself. Now it was clear to him why his brother even when he was soul traveling, he used his everything to protect me. )

Before Joelson could think anything else he his heard his bother say, " Brother when we go back to the carriages, you should take credit for killing the bandit leader because if i said i killed that leader bandit then no one will believe me. hahaha. And, last thing, you should say my nickname Gene that you had given me. Although it is a little girlish, but i like when you say it" with last lines with serious expressions.

Joelson knew his brother was trying to look serious, but still agreed to name him Gene from now on and to take credit. But, he still teased, "Gene, if i name you with gene in fornt of others, then others will also call you gene, are you okay with that."

Face of Gene turned dark hearing this from his brother and immediately responded with shouting, " brother only you can call me that, and no one else call me that, i won't let them do so."

Joelson agreed smilingly and said," then instead of calling me brother all the time, you should call me something else as well.

Hearing this Gene placed his hand on his chin in thinking pose and suggested, " In the language of my previous life, the word zenbai was used for big brother, so i will call you that."

After listening to this, Joelson was first confused to what nation his brother in his previous life, because he don't in which country does Zenbai word is used for representing the Big brother, and it was his first time hearing this word. But at last Joelson still agreed with a sigh, because, Zenbai word sound cool to him.

This concluded their conversation there.
