Chương 137: New Entry: [Dealing Cards]

boom- A loud bang.

The enormous golem landed in the courtyard of the mansion.

It smashed a large crater into the flat lawn, and then the golem's figure rapidly shrank, eventually turning into an ordinary lump of mud.

Shane picked up the mud and quickly ran towards the mansion with Frilian and Philon.

The three men heard a huge explosion before they entered the city.

Judging from the voice, it's most likely Shutark.

Xia En was extremely anxious.

But when he pushed open the gate of the mansion, he was greeted by the old butler, Gabel, with a tearful, smiling face.

The maids around them were also overjoyed and wept.

The demons were wiped out.

[Wilter] woke up.

He, Frilian, and Philon exchanged glances; this unexpected good news successfully put their minds at ease.

Several people entered Wilt's room. Lord Alden, Shutalk, Zain, and others were all there. Young Master Wilt sat leaning against the headboard, looking weak but in relatively good spirits. Young Master Mutter sat beside him, crying and speaking intermittently to his brother.

Wilt listened with a smile, and when Mutter started to hiccup from crying, he raised his hand and gently wiped away the boy's tears.

When Mutter saw the empty sleeve of her brother's left arm, her tears flowed even more fiercely.

Xia En entered the room.

Wilt looked up and saw him.

The boy gave a weak but sincere smile.

"Thank you for saving me."

Xia En responded with a smile.

Instead of taking credit, he patted Shutark and Zain on the shoulder and said, "You should thank these two. Luckily, they reacted quickly enough."

He had already learned about the situation from [Gabel].

It's truly fortunate that even though the healing magic didn't work, Zain still came to treat Wilt every single day without fail. Thanks to those seemingly "ineffective" healing spells, the bloodsucking worms didn't drain Wilt of his life, allowing him to hold on until Shane and the others defeated the masked man.

Fortunately, Shutark has become much more composed. After Shane and the others left, he patrolled the mansion constantly and never let his guard down.

The two cooperated quickly in the face of the crisis, which prevented the masked man from escaping.

"Well done."

Xia En praised the two of them.

Frillie and Philon also showed expressions of appreciation.

Shutark scratched his head, the boy's face turning slightly red, his eyes looking a little embarrassed.

Zain was much more composed; he simply smiled and then fainted.

Xia En was shocked.

It's just a compliment, it's not that serious.

Everyone was taken aback, especially Wilt, who was on the bed. When he saw Zain faint, he immediately tried to get out of bed, but as soon as he moved, he started coughing violently.

The people around immediately became flustered.

Frillie crouched down to take a look, then calmly said, "He ran out of magic and fell asleep."

Shane:' Both lieutenants have been eliminated.

The remnants of the Demon King's army that had gathered together dispersed within a few days.

The crisis in Alden City has been averted.

Shane and Frilian were hailed as the "Heroes of Alden" for saving the city and defeating the Demon King's army. People spontaneously took to the streets to hold a celebration to thank the heroes for their heroic deeds.

Lord Alden simply went along with the people's wishes and designated this day as Victory Day, with the whole city celebrating for three days.

The smog that had been hanging over the city was finally swept away.

Laughter has returned to the streets and alleys.

Zain regained his energy after a good night's sleep.

This drunken monk began to frequent taverns, drinking and reveling.

Because of his miraculous rescue of young Master Werther, people worshipped him to the extreme, and the bards in the tavern even composed songs in his honor.

This kept Zain's smile going.

Philon remained as diligent and sensible as ever.

The little girl helps the soldiers guarding the city repair the walls; her skillful use of [levitation magic] allows stones to float as easily as feathers.

This drew praise from the artisans.

With the help of magic, the repair of the city walls and buildings destroyed by the demons was much easier.

Shutark, along with the children, helped the adults set up scaffolding for the celebration and hang ribbons.

The children loved him and would playfully wrap colorful ribbons all over him.

With colorful ribbons adorning his head, Shutark chased after the children across the street, a sight that was both amusing and exasperating, causing the women busy preparing food nearby to burst into laughter.

Xia En sat on the highest tower of the mansion.

I basked in the sun, sipped tea, and looked down at the city that was coming back to life.

Frilian sat opposite him, holding a magic book.

The elven girl's fingertips gently traced the page, turning it leisurely.

Neither of them spoke, simply savoring the beautiful moment.

Night fell.

The campfire was burning brightly.

The celebration of victory has begun.

People sang and danced, and the aroma of fine wine and delicious food filled the air.

Philon looked left and right, but couldn't see any sign of Shane.

"Lady Frillien, where is Mr. Shane?"

Frillie ate her dessert without even looking up.

"He just said he was going to find Shutark."

Philon looked around.

It seems I haven't seen Shutark either.

She pushed through the crowd to Zain's side.

"Mr. Zain, have you seen Mr. Shane and Mr. Shutark?"

Zain, his tongue slurred from drinking, managed to squeeze out, "They went to find Wilt—" Philen had no choice but to go to Wilt again.

But the butler, Gabel, said that young master Wilt had returned to the mansion.

Philon dragged Frilian back to the mansion.

Frillie was very puzzled, "If you're looking for him, why are you dragging me into this—" The Filipino woman said confidently, "I'm afraid you'll lose it too."

Frilian: "————" The two returned to the mansion and immediately saw three teenagers on the grass.

Shane handed Wilt a longsword.

Wilt shook his head with a wry smile.

"Thank you, but I only have one hand left. I can no longer go to the battlefield. The longsword is useless to me now."

Xia En pushed the sword forward a little further.

"This one is different from the others."

Wilt grabbed his empty left sleeve, looked at the longsword in Shane's hand, his eyes filled with hesitation and longing, but in the end, longing prevailed, and he reached out and took the sword.

As soon as he got his hands on it, he felt something was wrong.

It's too light.

This standard longsword is too light.

He looked at Xia En, puzzled.

Shutark, standing to the side, smiled and explained, "This is a sword specially forged for you by the Sage Shaen."

"Sage Xia En?"

"Yes, Shane is the only 'Sage' in this world, capable of doing many things you can't even imagine."

As he spoke, Shutark took off his battle axe and assumed a fighting stance.

"If you don't believe me, let me test this sword for you."

Seeing Shutark's actions, Wilt, who was also a boy, could not hold back, and his eyes shone with a different kind of light.

My previously somewhat depressed mood suddenly surged.

Snapped- The longsword was smashed into the mud of the grass and stood upright.

Wilt drew his longsword with one hand. It was an ordinary, standard-issue longsword, but under the bright moonlight, it revealed a chilling, deep blue light.

The young man twirled his sword.

The light blade seemed weightless, allowing him to wield it with ease even with only one hand, without putting any strain on his body.

This greatly surprised him.

Shutark smiled and launched the first attack, which Wilt calmly countered.

Battle axes and longswords clashed, the two men evenly matched.

next to.

Frilian and Philon walked over.

Frillie looked at the longsword in Wilt's hand and asked Shane, "Have you found any new terms this time?"

Xia En smiled and nodded.

Immediately, the words on the longsword in Wilt's hand appeared clearly before his eyes.

[Standard-issue longsword] Status: In good condition. Entry: 【Sharp (Blue Excellent)】: Doubles the damage of normal attacks.

[Lightweight (Green Excellent)]: Achieve adaptive weight change, making it easier for you to swing.

【Durability (Green Excellent)】: Not easily rusted, sturdy and durable.

Evaluation: Among the scrap metal he got from the masked man, there happened to be three useful entries, so he casually made a sword for Wilt that suited his needs.

With this sword, even with only one arm, Wilt can still become an excellent swordsman.

Continue to defend this city.

Of course, in addition to these basic terms, he also received a somewhat special [purple term].

【Deal Card (Purple Epic)】: Designate a target and randomly deal a card to them. If the card is Good Luck, the target's hit rate will be forced to 100% for a period of time. If the card is Bad Luck, the target's hit rate will be forced to 0% (card effect lasts for 15 minutes).
