Chapter 46: You Can Kneel and Bark Like a Dog Now

    Silvermoon Inner Keep, Council Chamber.

    Silvermoon Viscount sat alone in the hall, rubbing his temples. He sighed, his brow furrowed in worry.

    He hadn’t slept well since the spirit incident.

    Those ignorant lower-class people just thought that the Kuberro Manor was haunted, and they used it as a topic for idle chatter. Only he knew how serious the situation really was.

    It was a spirit!

    A legendary evil undead creature!

    If not handled properly, the entire Stone Bell City might become a ghost realm!

    He had already lost a Great Knight and five Knights to deal with the spirit in the manor. It was painful to the point of bleeding.

    Yet, even with such a heavy sacrifice, the spirit was still alive and well. It even became more ferocious and terrifying after consuming the souls of six knights.

    If the spirit wasn’t eliminated soon, things would only get worse!

    Thinking about this, Silvermoon Viscount couldn’t help but gnash his teeth in hatred for Kuberro, who had been imprisoned.

    If it wasn’t for this fool’s inability to control his wife, allowing her to be deceived by the Starfire Sect and bring the evil crimson flower into the manor, and then later, because he was afraid of damaging his reputation, he concealed the news of the deaths. Things would never have reached an irreversible state.

    This self-destructive fool, even if he was killed ten times, it wouldn’t quench the anger in his heart!

    Taking a few deep breaths, Silvermoon Viscount calmed his anger and asked the scribe beside him, “Have all the recruits arrived?”

    “Yes, my lord,” the scribe bowed and said, “They are all waiting in the reception hall.”

    Silvermoon Viscount nodded and stood up, walking outside.

    To eliminate the spirit, relying solely on the strength of his subordinates wouldn’t be enough. He had to recruit mercenaries or wandering knights from outside.

    When dealing with powerful and terrifying spirits, every extra knight was a valuable asset.

    It would be a pity if he could find a Wizard.

    Not those who called themselves Wizards but were actually charlatans who could only fool people. He was looking for a real Wizard.

    They were the true professionals when it came to dealing with spirits.

    But Wizards were always secretive, and for a moment, Silvermoon Viscount didn’t know where to find one.

    “I heard that the second son of the former Shining Light Baron became a Wizard. I wonder if that’s true or just a rumor?”

    As he pondered, Silvermoon Viscount had already arrived at the reception hall.

    Countless eyes filled with malice converged on the masked individual.

    In this day and age, who among the mercenaries and wandering knights was easy to mess with?

    Seeing someone more arrogant than themselves, many people were instantly dissatisfied.

    “Kid, if you want to swallow the reward alone, first get past me.”

    A burly man with broad shoulders and a thick back stepped forward, patted the iron axe on his back, and looked at the masked individual with ill intent.

    “Seeing how cocky you are, you must have some skills. Why don’t we have a fight? Whoever loses kneels and barks like a dog, then quits. How about it?”

    Some recognized the burly man as a well-known wandering knight whose strength had already reached the level of a high-ranking Knight. They looked at the masked individual with a hint of schadenfreude.

    “That’s a good suggestion!”

    “Haha, let’s have a fight!”

    “Whoever chickens out is a coward!”

    “Kid, quickly agree. You wouldn’t be scared, would you?”

    The knights were all clamoring.

    Silvermoon Viscount watched this scene with a cold eye, without intervening.

    To be honest, he was also curious about the masked individual’s background.

    People who dared to say such things in such a situation were either fools or very confident in their abilities.

    His intuition told him that the masked individual was not the former.

    Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the masked individual, or rather, Su Nan, simply nodded calmly.

    “That’s a good suggestion. Let’s do it.”

    Su Nan raised his head, met the burly man’s gaze, and a strange light appeared in the eyes behind his mask.

    “Now, you can kneel and bark like a dog.”

    The burly man’s sneer quickly disappeared, and his facial features instantly became stiff.

    Before everyone could react, the burly man slowly knelt on the ground and opened his mouth.

    “Woof!”

    Thank you sunzhongjie1 for the reward! Thank you!
