The First Magic World War

The Old Leopard Man felt extremely awkward, he was not actually under Charles's command, but suddenly realized a problem. Compared to Golden Ram Herolf, his strength was slightly inferior, making any declaration meaningless, which greatly frustrated Tumishen.

Antonio hung his Knight's Spear back on the Spirit Horse and said indifferently, "If Anne is unharmed, I will forgive you! If something happens to Anne, I will never let you go."

Charles did not wish to offend Anne's brother, especially since Antonio had come to rescue his sister. This Knighthood might just be the trump card of the Brittany Family, and each member could be a significant figure from the family. There was no need for him to start a dispute. He said with a smile, "The moment I saw Anne, my heart almost stopped beating."

"At that moment, I was willing to exchange everything I own just to ensure she was safe and sound."

"If what I own still isn't enough, I am willing to borrow from the gods, even if it's the Evil God."

Antonio stared at Charles. He had heard about this young man many times from Anne's lips. Initially, he was dismissive, feeling that Charles was unworthy of his sister. However, as Charles advanced step by step and grew at an astonishing pace, even Antonio was surprised. After all, Charles was of common birth, merely a merchant's son, and did not have access to the vast resources of the nobility.

If it hadn't been for Anne's elopement, Antonio might have had a slight fondness for Charles.

After all, Charles had taken on an incredible script, for the girl he loved, from a man of ill repute in his hometown to a noble personage, from an obscure little clerk, by earning the hardest-to-come-by military honors, he had stepped into an insurmountable class.

Especially during the last event, Charles had even garnered the favor of the Lionheart King, securing a position for Anne, something even Earl Brittany couldn't achieve.

Earlier, when Antonio had lashed out in anger, he only meant to teach him a minor lesson, but Charles's quick response allowed him to get out of the situation unscathed and even prompted two members of the Sacred Order to step forward for him, making the eldest son of the Brittany Family take note.

The few words Charles had just spoken were powerful. If it had been someone else, Antonio would have scoffed, thinking the fellow was bluffing, but the miracles Charles had recently achieved were so many that even Antonio couldn't help but hesitate, thinking, "Perhaps this guy can really do it."

While several people were talking, suddenly a roar came from the sky, as if a huge dome lid was descending from above, covering an unknown vast area, but definitely encompassing both Antonio and Charles within it.

Charles felt his heart convulse and summoned Bloody Glory to withstand it.

He was terrified and exclaimed, "Who is that?"

But he could not make a sound; the one who roared seemed to have suppressed all other sounds.

The Old Leopard Man Tumishen's face changed drastically, he shouted, "It's Emisfida!" and grabbed Charles, intending to flee into the sky.

Even the always proud Old Goat couldn't help but release his Marine System Fighting Spirit to withstand the roar.

In his life, Charles had only seen two other individuals with such imposing authority, one was Earl Brittany, the other Viscount Constantine!

This individual was the third he had seen in his life.

Charles couldn't speak, but he couldn't help but praise in his heart, "Indeed worthy of the King of Ten Thousand Lions."

Just as he was trying to break free from the suppression and thinking of mobilizing all his current strength to fight against Emisfida, he knew it was too late to flee.

Then he saw Antonio snort coldly. This snort, while not as resounding as Emisfida's roar, was like a stone thrown into water, breaking the surface's tranquility.

Charles felt a relief wash over him, regaining control over his body. He shouted, "Listen to Antonio, fully cooperate with Anne's brother."

Antonio couldn't help but glance at Charles, but then immediately withdrew his gaze and drew his Knight's Spear, slowly rising into the air.

Tumishen, who initially wanted to take Charles away, noticed that the knights of the Brittany Family remained motionless. Out of curiosity, he asked, "Why aren't you helping?"

A knight about Antonio's age, somewhat arrogantly said, "Isn't it just that lion?"

"Do you know what Antonio's greatest battle achievement is?"

Charles couldn't help but ask, "Anne rarely talks about her brother, and I haven't heard about Antonio's achievements. Could you tell me about it?"

The knight, his face even showing something akin to worship, said, "That battle was where Antonio, along with five other members of the Sacred Order, united..."

The Old Leopard Man couldn't help but interject, "Since when does a victory won with others count as an achievement?"

Golden Ram Herolf had occasionally made a comment or two recently, but this time, he felt this comment wasn't worth expounding on, simply snorting lightly to express his disdain for this kind of combined achievement.

Once the three had finished their display, the knight of the Brittany Family said indifferently, "Antonio, together with the other five members of the Sacred Order, killed Zimmerman."

This time it was Golden Ram Herolf and Tumishen's turn to gasp in shock.

If Sacred Order had ranks, then Zimmerman was almost a divine being!

Only after his "death" did each of the Five Great Empires have their top master.
