Chapter 466 - Yet Another Twist

Chapter 466 - Yet Another Twist

Captain Knight Morris threw his helmet away as well, revealing his sorry visage. Morris was a middle-aged man in his late forties. His gray hair was messed up and tears flowed down from his eyes.

Captain Knight Morris looked toward Commander Ashley. Their eyes met, "I am sorry, Commander Ashley. I am sorry… I am really sorry…"

After conveying his feelings, Captain Knight Morris looked down at the scorched ground. He did not dare to look at Commander Ashley anymore. Captain Knight Morris was just the start. After him, the other surviving knights also threw their weapons and shields. Everyone was kneeling except for their Commander.

Commander Ashley gave a quick scan of the battlefield. She understood why her knights' spirits broke down. In less than five minutes, their formation was torn apart quickly. The knights who did not have a chance to surrender became the prey of the woman knight and the beast.

Now, everyone was looking at her as she was the only one who still stood.

"You should never look away from your enemy!" Bronson's voice entered her ears.

Commander Ashley turned her head and saw Bronson was right before her. The two reavers were in the way to strike her chest. Thanks to her swift reflex and reaction, she managed to raise her shield to block the incoming reavers.

Dang!

Once again, Commander Ashley was sent flying. This time, she was flung even further backward. She did not give like the others even though she realized that she had lost. There was no way she could win against them all.

Surrender crossed in her thoughts, but she immediately threw away the thought. She might be spared by these people, but she would die under the Lionax Kingdom's wrath. No matter what she chose, death was the only outcome for her.

Since death was inevitable, she was going to give it all to the end. She rose and dashed toward Bronson. At the same time, she formed two dozens of ice swords around her. Through her control over her elemental power, she controlled the Ice Sword perfectly.

However, the Ice Swords were futile as they broke apart when they clashed against the reaver. Bronson was enjoying the company until Orlean the Demon Prince came closer.

"Bronson, if you want to play around, I will join the fight and knock her down in one minute! You are making our Master wait just to watch you playing around!" Orlean said with his dignified voice as he showed his royal bearing as a Demon Prince.

Bronson did not talk back and nodded at Orlean before he turned toward Commander Ashley, "It seems we have to end our fight here and now!"

"Don't think you can win against me, filthy Undead!" Commander Ashley threw away her shield and held the sword with her two hands, holding the sword at the same level as her chest.

Commander Ashley closed her eyes, "Frost Sword Technique: Seventh Frost Sword, Frost Blade Domain!"

A thick frost aura discharged from her body while Bronson also released his Dark Energy. The frost aura was getting thicker and ice started to spread out from her soles.

At the last moment, a figure flashed toward Commander Ashley. The figure was not obstructed by the frost aura as the figure managed to reach Commander Ashley's side.

"What are you doing!? Get back right now!!" Bronson's furious voice echoed. He was angry that the battle was interrupted by someone. This would be their last exchange before they decide the winner of the battle.

Crystal did not heed Bronson's warning. She said something inaudible that only Commander Ashley could hear her voice. There was a halt in Commander Ashley's sword technique.

Crystal the Frost Knight used her sheath to tap the icy ground. With a single tap, the frost aura disappeared instantly. After that, Crystal knocked Commander Ashley out with a strike on the back of her neck. The battle was over within a few seconds.

"Crystal!" Bronson's furious roar echoed as he rushed toward Crystal. Halfway to reach Crystal, Orlean appeared in front of Bronson. The furious Bronson did not expect Orlean would attack him. The Demon Prince kicked Bronson's stomach and sent him flying backward.

After his quick action, Orlean turned toward Crystal the Frost Knight, "I hope you have a reasonable reason to interfere or not only Bronson but I will also beat you as well!"

"I do have the reason to interfere, but can you calm Bronson first? There is no way we can talk while he goes on a rampage," with her toneless voice, she made a request to the Demon Prince.

"Calm down, Bronson. There's no need to kill each other for something like this. Tone down your aura, you terrified your Mistress!" Tang Shaoyang arrived swiftly with Li Shuang in his embrace.

Li Shuang was hiding in his chest. The gory battle was enough to scare into hiding. The dreadful aura from Bronson was even more terrifying than the gory battle for some reason. She felt that way, it was suffocating and involving her deepest fear. Messing up with her mind.

With Tang Shaoyang's interference, Bronson immediately calmed down, "I am sorry, Master." The dreadful quickly dispersed and completely disappeared shortly after.

"I would like to hear the reason as well, Crystal!" Tang Shaoyang demanded with a strict tone.

"I am saving her life and also their lives." Crystal pointed her index finger at the knights who had surrendered, "Her last technique was a suicidal attack. If Bronson let her cast the technique, she would die and they would die as well. I thought you wanted them alive, that was why I intervened, Master."

She said the knights would die as she believed the technique would not hurt the other spirits, let alone Tang Shaoyang.

"How did you know that the last technique is a suicidal attack?" Tang Shaoyang was intrigued by the new information.

"Because Frost Sword Technique is my creation. A technique created by me for my family. So yes, I know she was trying to suicide while bringing all of us down with her, at least that was her plan by using the technique," Crystal explained, "A greater chance, she is my descendant."

The reason he formed a contract with Crystal was to learn how to control elemental power. He had the skill, [Elemental Manipulation] but to master it, it was not as easy as it sounded.

It was completely different than just activating skill and your body would move on its own while casting the skill. A technique was needed to control the output of his elemental power. However, his control over the elemental power was a mess. When he tried to use the skill, it ended up as too strong or too weak.

That was his plan by forming a contract with Crystal the Frost Knight. He did not expect that he would stumble on such crucial information. Crystal might have the crucial information to take down the Lionax Kingdom.

"But wait… I thought you were from the Pyrolis Kingdom? How could your descendant serve the Lionax Kingdom?" Tang Shaoyang remembered this well, he asked her once, and she said she was not from the Lionax Kingdom.

"My family is betrayed by the royalty of the Pyrolis Kingdom, Master. My descendant might have run away from the Pyrolis Kingdom and served the Lionax Kingdom to gain protection. We will know the answer once she wakes up, Master." Crystal bowed.
