Chapter 538

The guards‘ contemptuous tone gained a frown from Emmanuel. Arrogant,

are they? They think we’re lowly beings.

Sarah, however, was being nice. She smiled sweetly and said, “We came all

the way here for a search. If you’ll help us, we’ll reward you.”

“Reward?” The guards were still being arrogant. They mocked, “You can’t

-begin to afford what we want. Leave, or we’ll make you.”

Emmanuel and Sarah exchanged a look. They thought the guards were being

a bit too full of themselves, as if they were gods passing judgments on

mortals, and as if Emmanuel and Sarah were maggots.

“If money’s not what you want, we have gold. As long as you help us, we can

give you that.” Sarah was still smiling. She was a beautiful and regal woman,

and men would line up just to give her gifts. If the men were the ones

receiving gifts, they would probably die from happiness.

However, the guards were unfazed, and they were starting to shove

Emmanuel away. “Last time. Leave, or you’re dead meat.”

Emmanuel was caught off guard by how strong the guards were, and on top

of that, he was carrying Sarah on his back, so he fell down. Sarah fell with him,

and she let out a scream as her wounds worsened.

“Sarah, are you alright?” Emmanuel quickly turned around to check on Sarah’s

wounds.

Sarah’s clothes were torn again, and her palms were covered in blood. Her

wounds tore open, and blood trickled to the ground. “I–I’m alright.” Sarah

smiled, not showing any weakness.

Emmanuel closed his eyes and clenched his fists. When he stood up again,

he looked at the guards with fury. “Apologize, now.”

The guards froze, and then they burst into laughter as if they had just heard

the biggest joke in the world.

“Did he just tell us to apologize?”

“To a maggot?” A guard laughed.

“Preposterous!”

The guards‘ frivolous attitude infuriated Emmanuel, and he hurled his fists at

them. He and Sarah just wanted some information, and they were polite

enough. All the guards had to do was tell them if the person and item they

were searching were around. What makes them think they can look down on

us and go straight to violence? Inexcusable!

Surprisingly, these men reacted a lot faster than he thought, but the guards

were surprised too. They couldn’t believe Emmanuel would attack them, and

that he was actually a good fighter too. In that split second, both guards

extended their arms to block Emmanuel’s fists, and they moved similarly.

They were going to grab Emmanuel’s hands and launch a counterattack. If

the attacks hit, then they could take Emmanuel down.

A frown furrowed Emmanuel’s brow. He quickly spun and changed attacks,

much to the guards‘ shock. His speed caught them by surprise, and then they

lost sight of him. When they noticed him again, it was too late.

Emmanuel slammed into them with his shoulders, and the guards flew

across the air before they fell with a sickening thud.

“Y–You hit us!”

“My ribs are broken! Damn you!”

The guards pointed at Emmanuel angrily, like he just did something

unforgivable.

Emmanuel said calmly, “Sorry. Didn’t think you guys would be this weak.”

“Why you little…”

The guards went red with fury. How dare the cur insult us?

“What’s the ruckus?” The commotion alerted those within the walls, and a

young man in a long grey shirt came out with a couple more lackeys. The

guy was obviously a man of status.

“Mr. Dickies, just in time. This guy plans on trespassing!” the guards quickly

complained.

“This guy?” The young man frowned at Emmanuel, then he looked at Sarah,

who was on the ground. His eyes glinted, but he quickly looked away and

shifted his gaze to Emmanuel. “Who are you? How did you get here? Bugger

should’ve gotten rid of you.”

Bugger? Emmanuel paused for a moment, then he realized what he was

talking about. “Oh, Bugsy? Ah, I got rid of the pest. Proper scum he was.”

“What?” The lackeys looked shocked.

The guy named Dicky Dickies looked furious, and he hissed, “You shouldn’t

have done that. He’s the guard dog I stationed at North Star Village. How dare

you get rid of him without my permission? Who’s going to guard that place?”

Ah, so these are Bugsy’s masters. Judging from their build and the light in

their eyes, they’re powerful men. The fact that this guy just called Bugsy his

dog means he must be a lot more powerful than Bugsy.

Emmanuel wasn’t scared, however. He solemnly announced, “He terrorized

North Star Village, bringing harm to the villagers. The sins he committed were

far too many to list, and he deserved his death. If you support his actions,

then you are equally sinful as well!”

The lackeys were in disbelief, like Emmanuel just said something

unbelievable.

Dicky sneered before roaring, “I’ll kill you, you insolent cur!” He lashed his arm

out, forming a claw.

Shocked, Emmanuel retreated, but he was a step too slow. The guy tore

-through his clothes, and pain seared from his chest. Three bloody gashes

had formed on his chest.

“Careful, Emmanuel!” Sarah warned, but it was too late.

“That was great, Mr. Dickies!”

“That maggot’s dead meat!”

Dicky’s lackeys started to butter Dicky up, and Dicky sneered. “You managed

to escape me once, and I commend you for that. If you can tough out three

blows, I’ll

let you in.”

Arrogant. No one has ever boasted about that. Taking me down in three

blows? Preposterous. Even though Emmanuel had retired because of his

injury, this was still the first time someone was so arrogant to him. Still, he

knew this man might be able to defeat him, but he had no choice. He had to

accept Dicky’s challenge as he needed to find his mentor. “Fine. Challenge

accepted.”

Dicky smirked and launched into an offensive. His skills weren’t as varied as

Quinn’s or Felix’s, but he had more than ten times their power and strength.

Just the aftershock of his claw was enough to tear Emmanuel’s flesh open.

Emmanuel gritted his teeth. He couldn’t take the attack as he was, so he

needed to dodge. However, that was just a feint. Dicky was attacking him to

pinpoint how and where Emmanuel would dodge so he could find an

opening. Then, he attacked the third time, which was the real deal.
