Noble Emblem

A young Brave walked out of his village, gathered companions to his side, defeated the Great Demon King, became famous, then came back with beauties in hand! This was a legend that appears in the world of Seyrol every 200 years! Our protagonist, however, isn’t a Brave. Even so, for over a thousand years his figure has loomed throughout its history. Unwittingly, the name of the Red Priest began to resound throughout the world. Red Priest’s legend included extraordinary sword techniques and magic, erudite knowledge, and an almost prophetic ability to lead young Braves toward the proper path. People of the world think of him as a descendent of the ancient Golden Race which led to his omnipotence. In essence, however, this was just the characteristics of the profession known as ‘Noble’. A word from the fabulousest translator/editor on Earth which is me I took upon this translation/editing project for the same reason I started translating my first Chinese novel. There are just too many big ass gems buried in a deep cesspool. I've long guessed that Qidian stopped introducing good Chinese novels on this platform in order to give some breathing room for English (and other) originals, but I don't agree with such approach. From a reader's standpoint, it is such a shame that we don't even know how many brilliant works we are missing because of the language barrier. To be honest, I'm mainly copypasting from the site called Novelhi. It is a really good resource and their machine translation is the best I've seen so far, and they also translate up to the latest available chapter. Still, they have several issues. For some reason they always miss the last paragraph which make you can missout on a potentially very important information related to a story, and they also have parts where just a couple of words gets repeated for a whole paragraph and it actually replaces the original text. They also translate an ad together with a chapter which is immersion breaking. I'll be correcting the inherent sins of such MTL with manual editing and translation and I will also polish some rough edges so that the readers will have as much seemless reading experience as possible. You will definitely have a better time reading this than me for sure

Things change

At first, they thought that the black-robed person was the guardian of the antimagic circle, but they didn't notice anything unusual from the black-robed person after they hid behind the door for a long time.

Then, Liang Lidong sniffed the air again, only to find that the air here was slightly different. There was a weird, dry smell of corpses.

Then, he spread out his mental power like a detector. A moment later, he walked into the door and said, "Kail, there's no need to hide anymore. The person inside is already dead."

When the two of them entered the secret chamber, they felt a huge amount of mana flowing back and reverberating in the chamber.

They were standing on a hard floor made of Nethergreen Stones. The bright green magic patterns were similar to the color of the stones. Also, they couldn't see that there was a magic circle if they didn't look carefully.

They walked to the black-robed person, only to discover that the black-robed person had been dead for a long time. Her body had already turned into a mummy.

Judging from her body shape and appearance, the black-robed person was a female Mage. Bright green magic patterns extended from the ground and connected to her brain.

"A spellcaster is actually the core energy source of the magic circle." Liang Lidong heaved a sigh. "Should I say that the Soro family has deep roots, or should I say that they're insane?"

"Was the female Mage in pain before she died?"

"Death is like an extinguished lamp. Her soul has to be exiled to paradise or the Netherworld." Liang Lidong stepped on one of the patterns at the core of the magic circle, and the bright green light of the magic circle soon disappeared. "But there are always ways to keep a person's soul. The mental power of a powerful soul can be used as a magic power source. However, a spellcaster's soul is very independent and rational. Even if it stays in this world, it won't be willing to be a magic power source. So, in order to use a person's soul as the core, the female spellcaster had to be tortured before she died so that her soul would collapse. "

"You should know that female spellcasters are generally good-looking. It's easy to imagine what kind of disaster they will face."

Philosophically speaking, how a person views the world. How the world repaid him. Sometimes, the kind people couldn't see the dark side of the world because they couldn't touch it, but it didn't mean that the dark side didn't exist.

Kail clenched his fists tightly and then loosened them.

This was because Liang Lidong had cut off the magic veins. The Anti-Magic Array began to lose its effectiveness, and the huge amount of Mana in the secret chamber quickly dissipated.

At the same time, without the restraint of the Anti-Magic Circle, a translucent white soul with a twisted face jumped out of the mummy. However, before it could reach Liang Lidong, it disappeared like smoke.

"What was that?"

"It's just an obsession for revenge." Liang Lidong said calmly, "It's just that his soul was too damaged. After he left the core of the anti-magic array, he couldn't even maintain his basic form. His soul dispersed and returned to the most basic magic elements."

Kail looked at the black-robed mummy that was still sitting on the ground, and his expression became very ugly. His heart was very heavy, but he didn't know how to vent it. He walked over and picked up the mummy, then walked outside.

Liang Lidong didn't say anything as he watched this scene. He simply broke a few more magic veins on the ground.

Then, he waved his hand again, and Emma and Alice both came out of the space.

As soon as they appeared, Alice chased after them. She was going to find Kail.

Emma, on the other hand, walked to Liang Lidong's side and looked at him quietly.

After a while, Liang Lidong found it strange that she was staring at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"You want to kill someone, don't you?" asked Emma in a low voice.

Liang Lidong said with a smile, "We're here to kill people. We're here to kill people. "

Emma, however, shook her head. "That's not what I mean. You used to kill people without emotion. You kill people without any sense of right or wrong. You don't distinguish between joy and anger, only your standpoint. But now I can feel that you want to kill people because you're angry. This is the first time I've seen such a situation. Is it because the spellcaster is too pitiful? "

"That's not it." Liang Lidong shook his head. "I'm not a hot-blooded young man like Kail."

Emma chuckled. "Is that so? It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, as long as I understand it. "

Liang Lidong ignored her and walked straight out.

Emma smiled. Her eyes sparkled, and she followed him with small steps.

When they went outside, they heard deafening cries. Because the anti-magic array had failed, the light of magic was already flashing in the sky.

Then, they found Kail and Emma standing in front of a patch of grass. There were several bodies around them, all killed by a single blow. The wounds were all on the throats. This was clearly Kail's handiwork. Because Alice was a spellcaster, the people who died at her hands wouldn't look like this.

Liang Lidong walked over and saw that Alice was creating a hole with magic. Kail picked up the mummy on the grass and gently put it in.

Alice looked at Kail affectionately, then buried the mummy with magic.

"I don't know your name or what you look like," said Kail in a hoarse voice. Kail said in a hoarse voice, "But I can promise you one thing. From tonight onwards, the Soro family will be removed from the capital."

After saying that, he put a bunch of wildflowers in front of the fresh grave, then turned around and looked at Liang Lidong.

The young man's eyes seemed to be burning with fire. This was the first time that Liang Lidong had truly seen Kail angry. Liang Lidong knew a little about the Hero class in the game. It was said that they were born with the negative effect of removing emotions. In other words, the Hero class was naturally kind and rational.

Therefore, Liang Lidong could understand how angry Kail was.

"Then let's stick to the plan."

Liang Lidong snapped his fingers, and with a crisp sound, he fully activated Fog Manipulation. The thick fog spread out like a tsunami. In less than twenty seconds, the entire Soro manor was enshrouded in fog.

This turn of events immediately gave everyone a fright. The commander of the Morey Clan, who was in charge of attracting the firepower from the front of the manor, clicked his tongue when he saw this scene. "What a terrifying spell. Without a wind magician, there's no way to fight at all."

"That's true. The Soro family is really unlucky this time." The adjutant next to him said with a smile, "Because of the anti-magic array, the Soro family won't hire even one spellcaster in the manor. They believe that Warriors are the orthodox class, and spellcasters are all evil."

"Power is power. There's no such thing as orthodox or evil." The commander said with a smile, "Give the order to call our people back. Next, it's up to our allies."

Unlike the relaxed atmosphere of the Morey family, almost everyone in the Soro family was horrified after being enshrouded by the fog spell. Powerful Warriors could see more than ten meters away because of their abilities, but those weak melee professionals might not even be able to see clearly what was in front of them.

The patriarch of the Soro family, Kamas, was hurrying downstairs with three guards.

The failure of the anti-magic array and the strange thick fog all proved one thing. The manor had been infiltrated. Enemies had infiltrated the manor. Not only had they destroyed the anti-magic array, but they had also created such a strange fog spell similar to the fog of war.

"Damn evil spellcasters."

Camas cursed fiercely and walked downstairs with his longsword.

The Soro family was a pure Warrior family. Their ancestor was a powerful Warrior who killed countless enemies and a large number of Mages in the war and obtained the position of nobility. After that, the Soro family fully cultivated the Warrior abilities of their clansmen and even had a large number of Magic Breakers.

Therefore, the Soro family had never been afraid of Spell Casters. It had always been them dealing with Spell Casters, and no Spell Casters had ever dared to find trouble with them. But today … Not only had their arch-enemy, the Morey family, attacked, but even a Spell Caster had sneaked into the Soro manor.

The intense fog blocked his vision, but he could still see about twenty meters in front of him.

The most important thing now was to find the Spell Caster who had cast this fog spell. He knew how passive they would be when they lost their vision. Every minute was a great loss. He did not believe that there was only one Spell Caster sneaking in.

Kamas was not only the patriarch of the Soro family, but he was also not a powerful Warrior. Although he had not reached the Master level, he was not far from it.

Almost everyone in the Soro family was a Warrior. This was why the Morey family could not do anything to the Soro family even though they had the financial power of the kingdom.

Taking the stairs was too slow. Kamas was anxious to find the Spell Caster, so he jumped directly from the stairwell on the third floor.

His entire body slammed heavily onto the ground, causing the floor of the main hall on the first floor to crack.

He rubbed his numb knees, and the other two guards also jumped down. When he got up and was about to go out to find the enemy, he suddenly found that under the front wall of the main hall, he could vaguely see a person through the fog.

Squinting, Camas took a few steps forward, and then saw an unfamiliar Spell Caster standing under the front wall, looking at the sketch of his ancestor.

"Allan Mathew, so it's your ancestor? When did he change his name to Soro? "

"Who are you?" Camas was a little surprised. The person in front of him was definitely an enemy, because no Spell Caster would be willing to be a friend of the Soro family. What was even more surprising was that this person had actually called out his ancestor's surname. Even in the family, there were only a handful of people who knew that the ancestor's original surname was not "Soro."

"The world is really fickle." Liang Lidong turned around and looked at Kamas as if he was looking at a pile of excrement. "My relationship with Allan was quite good, but I didn't expect that I would be actually killing his descendants in the future."

"Nonsense." Camas snorted. The young man in front of him was only in his early twenties at most. How could he be friends with his ancestors more than three hundred years ago. So he felt that this was the enemy's psychological tactics.
