Weapon Seller In The World Of Magic

For the next hour, the couple just strolled around with a 4-circle knight following them.

Looking at the position of the sun, Captain Gao then informed everyone that they should return now.

As Song Yue and Zhang Kong also agreed with it, Lin Xue and Prince Shang Wei stopped their hunting and started to return.

By the time they reached sector-9, it was already dark. They decided to rest there for the night.

As the Prince turned out to be too bad with planning for a trip, he forgot to bring the tents with him.

So, all of them were left with no choice but to sleep in the open space.

The two guards gathered the wood. Prince Shang Wei lit the fire with a fire spell..

On one side, the two males lie on the ground. Since they don't have much to talk about, they fell asleep quickly.

On the other side of the fire, Song Yue and Lin Xue were busy in their girl talk.

Captain Gao and the other knight were guarding them.

"So, did you change your opinion of Prince Wei?" Song Yue asked her for formality even though she knew what her friend was going to say.

As she expected, Lin Xue just scoffed in response. "What else can change? In the end, all he could do is to show off that he had a more powerful and richer background than me. That's all."

Turning to the side, Song Yue give her the pistol, "how about you come me with to the store that sells this? The owner is ten times more handsome than even Scholar Shu."

"C'mon, you are kidding." Lin Xue clearly didn't believe her as Shu Fen was the most handsome guy she had ever seen in her life. This royal tutor used to be her childhood crush.

Even if she no longer looks at him that way as he had kids her age, still, in her eyes, in terms of looks, no one could be compared with him.

So, she was quite skeptical about Song Yue's statement.

"I was not exaggerating. Once you see Owner Lu and his assistant Allen, you will even say that they were ten times more handsome than Prince Wei." Song Yue told her while letting out another giggle.

"Allen? It appeared like a foreign name." Lin Xue commented.

"I guess." Song Yue shrugged her shoulders. "Owner Lu said that he was from far away. Maybe, he's someone from the northern kingdoms. Who knows..."

"I guess I must visit this store." Lin Xue mumbled, looking at the Pistol.

"Oh, I didn't expect you will be this bold." Song Yue let out a playful smile, "But, I should remind you. They were commoners. You should only enjoy inside yourself and not start something like a romance. Or else, who knows what your father will do."

"Hey…" Lin Xue threw the pistol back to her friend. "I'm going there to buy a pistol. And please, my standards aren't that low that I would fall for an owner of a small weapon store."

"Well, I hope you will stay confident like this." Song Yue giggled once again as she was sure that her friend will at least get a surprise of her life for once.

After talking a few more things, both of them slowly drifted into sleep.

A few hours passed. The forest was cold, silent, and anymore darker. The only place that was a bit bright is the camp where the nobles slept because of the burning firewood. Both of the guards were almost in a half-sleep state.

Song Yue forgot to keep her pistol in the storage ring. No one knows what kind of dream she's having. However, right now, she was playing with the pistol by rotating with her index finger at the trigger.

Meanwhile, on top of the trees, the four assassins were patiently waiting for the perfect time. For several hours, they have been in such a state. Feeling numb on his bottom, the youngest of them lost his patience. "Captain, how long do we have to wait?"

A short middle-aged man who was sitting on a higher branch than him lightly knocked his head with a Bo staff. "Keep your voice down and wait until the right time…"

Even though his whisper can be considered a bit loud in this silent environment, the drowsy bodyguards and sleepy nobles didn't discover it.

Seeing the situation under control, the captain sighed in relief. He waited for another hour until the 4-circle knight finally fell asleep and raised the staff. Suddenly, the tip of the staff was lit on small flames.

The other two were hiding in different trees and were keeping an eye on Lin Xue's hidden guard got the signal and they jumped down while taking out their weapons.

They landed nearby him and intended to take him by surprise.

At the same time, the leader and the young adult also jumped from the branch to land on the ground silently.

As they reached the ground, the leader pointed to the sleeping knight. The young assassin looked at him and gulped a bit as he glanced at the drowsy 5-circle realm Knight-Captain who was sitting nearby the fire.

Despite being recruited by the Assassins Guild at the age of ten and reached the 5-circle realm by the time he was only 18, this 19-year-old is almost a newbie with only a couple of human kills so far.

So, he was a little bit nervous and excited at the same time.

He was directly teleported right next to his target. He took out the dagger and was about to slice the knight's neck.

Just then, by sheer luck, Song Yue was having a dream of killing an orc with a headshot.

She was so excited that she shouted, "Die, you monster."

*bang*

She accidentally clicked the trigger of the loaded pistol in her hand and suddenly, the sound of an explosion disturbed the silent surrounding.

Zhang Kong sprung up on his feet letting out a huge scream while the rest of the others were also flinched in surprise due to the loud sound.

"Xie Chen, down…" Captain Gao alerted him as soon as he saw the figure of a stranger in black clothes who held a dagger. "Everyone, gather behind me, right now."

"Captain Gao, behind you," While this knight also alerted the nobles in hurry, Zhang Kong who was up on his feet saw a short guy with a bald head and long beard was only a few feet away from the captain. So, he too alerted him.

"Another assassin?" Captain Gao didn't waste any time jumping forward and turned around to find a person who was standing still.

Meanwhile, the four-circle realm knight jumped to the side to dodge but he wasn't able to dodge completely as the young assassin thrust the dagger in panic.

His upper arm started to bleed quickly. He stopped it with his other arm while gritting his teeth.

The young assassin pushed his leg against the ground and returned to his captain.

"What to do, now?" He asked the shorty.

The leader shrugged his shoulders, "Little Feng, we have been discovered. There's no choice but to go all out."

Glancing at the captain, he further said, "I'll take the big one. You handle the rest of them. There's only one 4-circle in that group. It should be a piece of cake to you."
