Being a knight is not easy

Chapter 105 Half Moon Slash

Nasda's face turned ugly in an instant. He didn't expect that Viscount Wilk and Viscountess would stand up so strongly to protect Robin.

He originally thought that with the prestige of the Wizard Council, the Wilk family would obediently hand over Robin, but he didn't expect things to develop to this point.

"Viscount Wilk, Viscountess, are you going to openly defy the orders of the Wizarding Council?" Nasda said coldly, with a hint of threat in his tone.

Viscount Wilk smiled, a hint of disdain in his tone: "Your Excellency Nastda, we naturally respect the orders of the Wizard Council, but you dare to come to my territory to arrest people without any evidence. Aren't you showing too much disregard for us, the Western nobles?"

Viscountess Melita also said coldly: "That's right, if you don't have evidence, please leave. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."

Nasda's face became even gloomier. He subconsciously glanced around, as if waiting for the arrival of Knight Anxi.

Knight Anxi had not appeared yet, which made Nasda feel uneasy.

"Knight Anxi... why hasn't he come yet?" Nasda whispered to himself, with a hint of anxiety in his tone.

Robin stood aside, looking at Nashida coldly, a hint of sarcasm flashing in his eyes: "Sir Nashida, are you waiting for Knight Anxi? Unfortunately, he may not be able to come."

Nashida's face turned pale instantly. He turned his head sharply and stared at Robin: "You...what did you do to Knight Anxi?"

Robin smiled, a hint of coldness in his tone: "I didn't do anything. But if you don't leave now, I can't guarantee what will happen next."

An ominous premonition arose in Nasda's heart. He knew that he had fallen into a passive position.

Without the support of Knight Anxi, they alone would not be able to fight against the Knights of the Wilk family.

"Okay, very good." Nashida gritted his teeth and said with a hint of anger in his tone, "Viscount Wilk, Viscountess, the Wizarding Council will never forget what you did today. Let's go!"

After saying that, Nashida and his men quickly left the manor. Robin looked at their backs, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

"Father, Mother, thank you." Robin whispered with a hint of gratitude in his tone.

Viscount Wilk patted Robin on the shoulder, his tone gentle: "Alan, you are our son, of course we will protect you. However, the Wizard Council will not give up easily, you must be careful."

Viscountess Melita also nodded, with a hint of worry in her tone: "That's right, Allen. The power of the Wizard Council is far stronger than we imagined, but you don't need to worry. We, the Western Nobles, will not let the Wizard Council do whatever it wants like they do in the southern provinces."

On the way back to Obeidi City.

Nasda sat in the carriage, his face terribly gloomy. Viscount Wilk and Viscountess's tough attitude, as well as Robin's meaningful smile, kept echoing in his mind.

The disappearance of Knight Anxi made him feel extremely uneasy, as if an invisible net was slowly tightening.

"The Western nobles...what on earth do they want to do?" Nasda whispered to himself, with a hint of anxiety in his tone.

The relationship between the Western nobility and the Wizarding Council has always been very tense.

Most of these nobles were marginalized by their families and were forced to go west to open up their territories. As the west developed, these nobles gradually rose to prominence and became the backbone of the western provinces.

Their disgust and hostility towards the Wizarding Council is no secret.

"Knight Anxi's disappearance... is definitely not accidental." Nashida's eyes flashed with a cold light. "The western nobles must be planning something big, and Knight Anxi's disappearance is just the beginning."

He quickly pulled out a communication crystal from his pocket and whispered a spell.

A ray of light emerged from the crystal, and then a deep voice came: "Nasda, what's the matter?"

"My lord, the situation is not good." Nashida said in a low voice, with a hint of urgency in his tone, "Knight Anxi is missing, and the attitude of the western nobles is very tough. I suspect they are planning an action against the Wizard Council."

The voice in the communication crystal was silent for a moment, then said coldly: "Are you sure?"

Nasda nodded, his tone firm. "I'm sure. Viscount Wilk and Viscountess blatantly defied the Wizard Council's orders and even threatened us. Without the support of the Western Nobles, they would never dare to act so arrogantly."

The voice in the communication crystal was silent again for a moment, then whispered, "I understand. Return to the base immediately and increase vigilance. I will report to headquarters and request support."

Nasda nodded and turned off the communication crystal. He leaned back in the carriage seat and breathed a sigh of relief, but the uneasiness in his heart did not ease at all.

"Western nobles...what on earth do you want to do?" Nasda whispered to himself, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Robin sat at his desk, a thick martial arts book in his hands, his eyes fixed on the pages. It detailed a martial art called "Half Moon Slash," described concisely yet powerfully. A flicker of excitement flashed in Robin's eyes; he knew this was exactly what he needed right now.

"Concentrate your Life Force on your weapon and create a crescent-shaped blade. The power is determined by the concentration of your Life Force..." Robin muttered the contents of the book, a hint of admiration in his tone. "There's no upper limit to this martial art, only the user's... This is tailor-made for me!"

Robin quickly stood up, picked up the Damascus steel sword beside him, and walked to an empty part of the room. He took a deep breath and began to practice the "Dragon-Devouring Breathing Technique". The life force in his body surged rapidly, as if a giant dragon roared in his blood.

"Half Moon Slash!" Robin shouted, swung the Tang sword in his hand fiercely. A brilliant half-moon-shaped light burst out from the blade, instantly cutting through the air and rushing straight towards the wall in front of him.

"boom!"

The light from the Half Moon Slash struck the wall with a loud bang. A deep crack appeared on the wall, as if it had been split open by a giant axe. Robin looked at the crack, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

"It's powerful, but it can be even stronger." Robin muttered to himself, and then he practiced the "Dragon-Eating Breathing Technique" again, and the life force in his body surged again.

This time, he concentrated even more of his life force into the Tang sword. The light on the blade grew even brighter, like a bright moon rising in the room. Robin swung the sword fiercely, and an even larger crescent-shaped light burst out from the blade, hurtling towards the wall.

"boom!"

This time, the force was several times stronger than before, completely piercing the wall and revealing the scenery outside. Robin looked at the huge crack, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
