I was beheaded in the Middle Ages for 20 years

Chapter 102 Duel

The atmosphere in the banquet hall originally reached a freezing point when Khamis roared.

Mayfair was startled by Hamis's reaction and barely recovered.

Faced with Khamis's ridiculous accusations, she certainly wanted to fight back.

But the conflict between soldiers coming from outside attracted the attention of all the nobles.

This is no small matter.

Soldiers rioting in towns has always been a taboo in every town.

Hamis calmed down his newly heightened emotions and asked calmly.

"what happened."

"It's not clear yet. The soldiers are still fighting in the tavern."

The banquet had to be terminated, and even the accusations prepared by Khamis had to be stopped.

The nobles left the banquet hall and headed towards the barbican tavern.

Xu Siling came to Fei'er's side. Fei'er's face returned to calmness, but her ears were slightly red. It seemed that what just happened had not completely calmed her down.

"Xu, it seems that Hamis is hopeless."

Xu Siling responded: "Even if he doesn't believe in us, other nobles will, because Hamis can't save them, but we can."

"It's just that I'm really angry to be accused like this for no reason." Feier was a little angry.

"When the Holy See experiments with the 'revelation of God', it will naturally admit that miracles have come to you. Then Khamis is a joke."

"But it's a bit difficult to save those people."

"We'll think of a solution later. Let's see what this conflict is about first."

"Could it be that our soldiers were also involved?"

Xu Siling was silent. It was hard to tell. He even had a hunch that the conflict between the soldiers in the tavern might have something to do with their soldiers.

The nobles come to the tavern.

The road was muddy, and as soon as I got closer, I heard the sounds of noisy quarrels coming from the tavern, accompanied by the pleasant sound of fists hitting the flesh.

There were several tavern waiters at the door trembling with fear.

Hamis's expression was disgusting, he pushed the waiter away and led the people in.

"Stop it all!"

Khamis's shouting was effective. The soldiers in the tavern recovered from the excitement of the riot and pulled away from each other.

Xu Siling and Fei'er glanced around behind and frowned at each other.

It's easy to tell which soldier is involved in the fight, just by looking at the burqa on his body.

There are many kinds of burqas, and it can be said that there are at least eight soldiers participating in the fight from different affiliations.

Among them were the soldiers from Raya Town, who were even the largest number of people involved in the fight.

Before Hamis could shout, Xu Siling took the initiative and stood up to scold him.

"You all come here!"

Not only the soldiers from the Frofen family participated, but also the soldiers brought by Mayfair.

When the soldiers saw so many nobles, they became panicked and frightened.

Fortunately, they are not stupid. They were just fighting and did not use the weapons on their waists, otherwise the nature of the fight would have changed.

When the soldiers in Raya Town saw Xu Siling's expression, they were all afraid and lowered their heads. Eight of them came to stand in front of Xu Siling with wounds on their bodies.

Xu Siling did not accuse, but asked first. He knew that people in the Fulofen family were more rational than ordinary people, and they would not get angry easily. There may be other reasons for this.

"what happen."

Soldiers, you look at me, I look at you, one of them finally said bravely.

"Recall that Sir Siling, someone just made rude remarks and spoke ill of you and Miss Laya. I was so angry that I went to him to reason with him, and then we started pushing and shoving during the argument, and finally..."

Needless to say, there was definitely a fight in the end.

"Then why are there so many people involved in the fight?"

"I don't know about that. It seems like they accidentally bumped into someone, and then everything got messed up."

Just when Xu Siling was about to ask questions, Khamis directly interrupted sharply: "The meaning is very clear, it was the soldiers in Raya Town who took the lead in the fight, right?"

The soldier glanced at Hamis and gritted his teeth to retort: ​​"I was the one who made the move first! But they humiliated Lord Siling and Miss Raya first!"

"It's enough if you make the first move." Khamis snorted coldly, raised his hand, and motioned for the soldiers behind him to come forward and arrest him.

However, as soon as the other party made a move, Xu Siling stood directly in front of Hamis, and her brown eyes glared back fiercely.

"My people, the punishment will be decided by me, so I won't bother Mr. Khamis."

"Knight Executioner, you'd better think clearly about where you stand. This is my territory. If you cause trouble on my territory, it's under my control!"

At this time, Feier also spoke.

"Soldier, who was talking bad about me just now?"

"It's him! Miss Raya!"

The soldier quickly pointed to the most seriously injured guy in the tavern. The burqa on his body showed that he was a soldier from Tamubao.

The man was accused, his eyes were flustered, and he couldn't help but look at Khamis.

"What did he say about me?"

"They said that Miss Raya is just a child who doesn't understand anything and can only have whims. She also said that Lord Siling is just a lowly executioner and cannot stand on the stage."

As soon as the accusation was finished, before Fei'er could say anything, Xu Siling stepped forward and drew out the two-handed sword at his waist.

The weapon was unsheathed, and everyone except Fei'er was surprised.

Khamis exclaimed: “What do you want to do!”

"What are you doing?" Xu Siling seemed to have heard something ridiculous. "It is a capital crime to humiliate a noble. Can't you see what I'm going to do?"

"I will give an explanation to my soldiers, and you will not let you mess around!"

Xu Siling and Feier looked at each other,

The wounded soldier retreated in fright.

The other nobles and soldiers became nervous.

Normally, the bilateral approach would not be so rough, but what happened at the previous banquet brought the relationship between Mayfair and Hamis to a freezing point. It is impossible for the two to resolve their past feud, at least not for Mayfair.

Revenge is Fei'er's personality.

The soldier wanted to run, but the door was blocked by so many people that he had nowhere to run.

Xu Siling was very fast. He raised his sword with both hands and rushed over to chop off the man's head.

Khamis was furious and shouted quickly.

"Stop him!"

"Watch your back!"

Xu Siling didn't say much when he was killing people. He sensed someone approaching from behind brandishing a weapon.

If he wants to slash back behind him, no matter who the enemy behind him is, he will die!

However, as soon as he made this move, a person suddenly rushed over beside him.

The speed was so fast that even Xu Siling almost had no time to react.

Just hear a bang!

Xu Siling raised her eyes and saw that it was An Li.

Enri was wearing a close-fitting chain mail robe, her gauntlets sparkling in the sun, and the robe crest on her body looked extremely dazzling.

She held the shield in her left hand and put the sword on her shoulder in her right hand, in a charging posture. The soldier who was just about to attack Xu Siling was intercepted by Anli, and with a collision with his shield, the man was knocked away on the spot and rolled several times on the ground before he stopped.

It's frightening that a woman's strength can knock an adult male soldier away so far.

Enri looked fierce and stared at the soldiers surrounding her.

"What the hell is a sneak attack? Pigs from Tamubao, if you can, fight me in a duel!"

Frofen's soldiers reacted slowly, but they all drew their weapons and protected Feier.

The battle was about to break out, and the weapons of Hamis and Mayer's soldiers were unsheathed. Naturally, the soldiers of other nobles also drew their weapons to defend themselves.

The scene suddenly became more chaotic.

The other nobles were not stupid. At this time, they all used their eyes to signal their soldiers to withdraw from the focus circle, and everyone stepped back.

During the stalemate, a large area of ​​​​the entire tavern became vacant.

Among them were only the soldiers of Khamis and Mayer.

Currently, Feier's side has the advantage in terms of numbers, but soon, the soldiers and guards from Tamubao will be replenished, and this advantage will be in jeopardy.

Enri was very fierce. She didn't dare to approach her opponent when she saw him. She slapped her sword on her shield and angrily scolded her opponent for being cowardly.

Seeing everything behind her, Xu Siling couldn't help feeling warm in her heart.

Although he could deal with his attacker, seeing Enri rush forward so desperately didn't feel like it was fake at all.

There were many wrinkles on Hamis's face, and he was still very resentful. He looked at the current situation. If there was a conflict now, he would definitely suffer. If he retreated, the only soldiers on the field would be defeated.

Just at the critical moment, the footsteps of soldiers were heard in the distance.

Everyone looked up and saw a sergeant leading the guard troops over.

Hamis was relieved when he saw his own men coming in.

Fei'er looked at the people on the opposite side surrounding her without any panic on her face. The same was true for Xu Siling and An Li.

Only the soldiers in Raya Town were a little panicked.

Fei'er knew very well that nothing would happen to her. Even if Hamis was really mad and ordered to attack her, the other nobles would not ignore him.

She said at the banquet that she had the means to cure and control the Black Death. With this alone, other nobles would not let anything happen to her.

Otherwise, there are so many nobles outside who look at me and I look at you. They all agree on one thing without saying anything. Their soldiers have left the battle circle and still haven’t put away their weapons. It’s just because the timing is bad and they must terminate the battle.

Khamis also calmed down at this time. Although he is ignorant, he is not stupid. He is very good at judging the situation.

He felt that the other nobles behind him were watching with eagerness. He knew that if he really ordered the siege of Fei'er, he might be attacked from behind.

"Miss Raya, we need to talk."

"Do you need to talk about anything?" Fei'er looked at him coldly, "Hand over the soldiers who said bad things about me, and I can pretend that nothing happened."

"You hand over the soldier who struck first, and I can pretend that nothing happened."

Khamis was also not to be outdone.

No one wanted to hand over their soldiers.

As soon as the words came into contact, they were immediately incompatible with each other.

At this moment, a boy came from the side of the tavern.

"I have a suggestion, Lord Khamis."

Everyone looked and saw a man with black hair, black eyes, and a bulge in the middle of his nose, approaching with a flattering smile on his face.

Xu Siling frowned, it was the Jew named Frank.

"explain."

"I know that both adults are unwilling to give in, but if they go to war because of this matter, more blood will be shed by then. I believe this is what no one wants to see." Frank came to Hami Next to Si, he raised his index finger: "My suggestion may not be mature, that is, let's have a holy and fair duel. Each side will choose a knight to represent the duel. The winner will be determined in one battle, regardless of disability, and the loser will surrender. How about letting the other party handle it without any complaints?"

As soon as these words came out, the nobles all agreed without waiting for Hamis and Faile to react.

These nobles don't want anything to happen to Mayfair. They also want to know the solution to the Black Death. As for the life and death of their subordinates, they really don't care.

And this method is not bad. Dueling with brutal force has been something nobles like to do since ancient times.

Hamis thought deeply, glanced at Frank, and nodded in understanding: "I have no objection."

Before Fei'er spoke, Enli was not convinced.

"Why can a knight appear on the stage, can't I!"

Frank smiled and shook his head: "Only knights can represent the nobility. This is as it should be."

"Damn it!"

Fei'er couldn't help but laugh when she saw Anli's furious look. Being smart, she already understood what the other party was up to. She looked at Xu Siling and agreed.

"I have no problem either. Let's solve it this way."

As soon as these words were spoken, the tense fighting atmosphere quietly dissipated.

Fei'er's appearance here is naturally Xu Siling. She currently only has one knight, and besides Xu Siling, there is no other choice.

The candidates for Hamis' side also came out quickly, and the one who stood up was the non-commissioned officer who had just arrived with the guard troops.

He has a tough appearance, sharp eyes, and a strong body. At first glance, he is someone who is not easy to mess with.

An Li recognized the other party and warned Xu Siling.

"I know this man. I have seen him on the battlefield before. He is very fierce and has superb sword skills. Although I have never competed with him, he will not be too weak to me."

Xu Siling smiled calmly: "Don't worry, as long as he's not twice as strong as you, I'll still be fine."

"Are you scolding me or praising me?"

"praise you."

Mayfair spoke at this time.

"You should know that the other side is digging a hole for us."

"I know." Xu Siling didn't care, "But the hole they dug can only be said to be the wrong one."

"As long as you have confidence."

The reason why Frank suggested that the knights come out for a duel was because they both knew that the most prominent thug around Mayfair was Enri.

Enri is not very famous, but she is still very famous in the territory of Raya Town. Hamis has investigated Raya Town, so it is impossible not to know about Enri's situation.

And leaving An Li aside, Fei'er didn't have any useful talents around her, and now she had an additional executioner knight, Xu Siling.

Even the fact that Mayfair only has one knight, they are not unaware of it.

Xu Siling is a joke to Hamis.

He thought that Feier made Xu Siling a knight just to make money.

if not?

Taking a step back, if an executioner suddenly becomes a knight, how superb can his sword fighting skills be?

Can he be better than a battle-hardened soldier?

This is mutual common sense.

Executioners are not under the direct control of towns and cities. The children of executioners do not need to be trained in any weapon skills since they were young. They are free-range.

The professionalism of their soldiers is really not as high as that of ordinary soldiers, let alone the soldiers who struggled to survive on the battlefield.

This was Frank's real intention, and his suggestion seemed fair.

But it wasn't fair from the start.

But does Xu Siling care?

He doesn't care.
