Chapter 110 The Wizard in Iron Felt City
At the city gate, the change in Viscount Iron Sword's expression as he looked at Luo Ang made Luo Ang very certain that he must know that his father had died at his hands.
While he was aware of this, he was also trying his best to endure it.
Loon could sense the resentment in his heart—but he never saw it on his face.
Moreover, he even knew how to use Loen to consolidate his rule.
In the past month and a half, Loen has killed two barons, as well as several blood relatives of the Iron Sword family in Ironfell City...
Without a doubt, they were all the young viscount's opponents...
The Iron Sword family has ruled Iron Sword Territory for only a little over twenty years—of the twelve barons in this territory, eight were assigned to Iron Sword Territory after the previous Iron Sword Viscount became a viscount.
They had no loyalty to the Iron Sword family whatsoever.
Especially after the young Iron Sword Viscount ascended to power, they would only look down on the Iron Sword family even more and outwardly comply with their wishes while secretly defying them.
There's also the Iron Sword family internally—this young viscount was only temporarily pushed up to take the blame, so he naturally doesn't have much control over the family's internal affairs.
The baron that Loen killed in his two attacks, as well as the blood relatives of the Iron Sword family, happened to be among these two.
Therefore, although Luo Ang's two attacks severely damaged the reputation of the Iron Sword family and made people look down on the young viscount even more, in reality, after experiencing these two blows, the young viscount's control over the family and territory has become even stronger!
Considering these factors, this young viscount truly deserves to be called a "genius born of heaven".
In just a month and a half, he had already learned to use others' power and to kill with someone else's help.
If it weren't for the fundamental difference between wizards and non-wizards in this wizarding world, Loen would almost certainly have declared, "This child must not be allowed to live."
Of course, as for Loen himself, he didn't want the newly appointed Viscount Iron Sword to be a complete fool who only knew how to cause trouble.
In addition, he was still young. Although he enjoyed the benefits of being exploited by the Iron Sword family, he did not have time to commit any other misdeeds.
These two points are also the reasons why Luo Ang kept him around.
"Your Excellency Thunder, Mr. Colin, the accounts are ready!"
"I'm still young, I don't have enough energy, and I can't understand these things."
"So I delegated many tasks to other elders in the family for their responsibility and verification."
"Your Excellency Thunderclap, and Your Excellency Colin, shall I summon all the personnel responsible for each road?"
Viscount Little Iron Sword spoke with remarkable clarity and organization.
Luo Ang asked himself, if he were in the same position as this young viscount, even with his past life experience, he might not be as organized and "clean" as this young viscount.
"Old Colin, it's all yours now."
Loon gestured to old Colin, "Do you need me to find you some help?"
"Revered Thunder Wizard, old Colin is more than capable of handling this!"
"When it comes to matters of accounts, we goblins are the experts among experts!"
Old Colin rarely showed such a smug expression. "By tomorrow morning at the latest, I will have these accounts sorted out clearly."
……
"Have you thought it through?"
"Should we go to Iron Sword Castle or Forked Ridge?"
In the darkness of night, in a tavern in Iron Felt City, two cloaked figures sat on the roof of the tavern—people came and went in the tavern, but no one noticed their presence.
The soldiers patrolling the road outside also ignored the two people on the tavern roof.
It was two wizards!
Just as the Scarlet Wizard had predicted.
Although most wizards are lazy and unwilling to move much, the ecology of the central kingdoms has been disturbed by the foreign wizards, so the wizards of the central kingdoms will definitely send people out to check it out.
However, the Scarlet Wizard's predictions weren't entirely accurate.
The wizarding forces in the central kingdoms are naturally dominated by those wizarding schools—but outside of those schools, there are many wild wizards.
Generally speaking, when the wizards of the central kingdoms encounter some rather "abnormal" situations, they will not personally take the risk.
Instead, it would drive those wild wizards to act as vanguards.
For example, this time, before confirming the situation of Loen and his group, the nearest wizarding school sent two wild wizards from the vicinity to investigate—the two sitting in the tavern at this moment.
To the Kingdom of the Shield, these two wizards were not exactly outsiders.
In the entire Kingdom of the Shield, there are five great noble families, including the king, and each of them has a wizard as their support.
The two wizards who came to Iron Felt City to investigate the situation were a wizard named Sunil, from the Xulun family—a marquis family.
Another wizard named Ralph comes from the Windshadow family—also a marquis family.
Although they were both second-class wizard apprentices, their strength was relatively weak among second-class wizard apprentices.
Ten days ago, the two of them had already arrived at Fork Mountain Territory, but at that time, Lo Ang and the Crimson Wizard had never separated, so the two of them never appeared in front of Lo Ang and the Crimson Wizard.
Only now, after Loen and the Crimson Wizard parted ways and Loen arrived in Ironan City alone, have they dared to show their faces.
"Whether to go to Iron Sword Castle or Forked Ridge, the real issue isn't these two places."
"It lies with these two people."
The wizard Ralph stared intently at the dark, iron-sword-shaped castle, his gaze deep and unsettling.
Before setting off, neither of them thought there would be any trouble on this trip—it was just that two wild wizards who didn't know the rules had broken them, and as their seniors, all they needed to do was teach these two wild wizards to know the rules and integrate into them.
Their primary objective was to make Thunder Wizard and Crimson Wizard comply with the rules.
This is a goal at the wizarding level.
In addition, their second objective was to make the Crimson Wizard and the Thunder Wizard pay the price for the three nobles they had murdered.
A goal derived from the aristocratic class.
Before they set off, the two marquises they supported personally approached them and told them that they were willing to offer more "offerings" if they could make the Crimson Wizard and the Thunder Wizard pay the price for the deaths of the three nobles of Iron Sword Territory.
But after arriving in Iron Felt City, the wizards Sunil and Ralph finally realized who they were facing.
A Crimson Wizard—whose spells can tear through city walls with the power of the spell itself—is undoubtedly an offensive spell.
The other Thunder Wizard, although he did not show any signs of using offensive spells, was exceptionally ferocious.
In just a month and a half, he not only killed the previous Viscount Iron Sword, but also killed two other barons—blood relatives of the Iron Sword family—and several others.
Those were all nobles!
Although their strength cannot compare to that of the wizards, their power and influence on this land far surpass that of the wizards.
Even though both Sunil and Ralph Wizards wielded the power of the Marquis's family, they had never personally killed a nobleman.
In short, in the eyes of the wizards Sunil and Ralph, the power wielded by the Scarlet Wizard and the ferocity displayed by the Thunder Wizard were beyond their expectations.
What surprised them even more was the relationship between the two people.
A powerful wizard.
A wizard with a ruthless nature.
When these two meet, they should be locked in a life-or-death battle.
But in reality, the two of them actually coexisted peacefully in a very intimate manner... This is simply outrageous!
This is precisely why they dared not appear in front of Loen and the Crimson Wizard.
This is also why they are currently torn between meeting with Loen or meeting with the Crimson Wizard.
