After lunch, Yaying began her daily practice.

Although the current incident was complicated, she knew that as long as the village chief stayed with Seth, he would be very safe. That's why she went to the forest behind the village alone and practiced the two-sword swordsmanship to the core.

During practice, Yaying will let herself go, stop thinking about messy things, and focus entirely on the sword.

In the dark forest, the girl's steps are as light as a dance, and the slender swords in her hands flash with cold light, giving people a sense of extreme danger and attraction.

Suddenly, Yaying performed a sword flower dance and stood there holding her breath.

Deep in the dark and quiet forest, there was the sound of the collision of weapons and the sound of some bladed weapons piercing the trees.

It's the sound of battle!

Almost instantly, Yaying thought of Hill, who had disappeared not long ago, and quickly put away her swords and flew away. Like Pat, she believed that Hill saved the village chief last night.

At this moment, Hill blocked the hidden weapon attacking from behind and quickly moved two steps to the left. However, as soon as his right foot took a step, the touch from the sole of his foot made him jump away in the opposite direction. At the same time, several arrows flew out from the trees not far away and struck hard where Hill had just stepped.

Before he could react, three figures attacked him again.

"As expected of Hill, he has been able to persist until now in the face of the siege from so many of us."

"Is the union trying to get rid of me?"

Hill blocked the attack of the person in front of him, took two steps back and stood still.

"It's a commission."

Grant replied as he attacked Hill.

At first, they thought that so many traps would be enough to make Hill peel off his skin, and they would slowly take care of the prey after it was injured.

However, the beginning was very good. Hill was indeed injured a little by the trap, but his strength was much stronger than Grant and the others thought. Hill made up his mind to play guerrilla warfare with them, but they really couldn't get rid of him for a while.

If Hill hadn't accidentally stepped on the trap in the morning and alerted them, they might have been defeated one by one by him.

Even so, Hill shook off the other three. Only the three of them had not been thrown away, and they were chasing Hill closely, not intending to give him a chance to breathe.

After such a long battle, Hill has indeed reached his limit.

However, he did not show any panic or panic. Instead, he resisted their attacks very calmly and calmly looked for a breakthrough. This made the three of them take a breath of cold air, and became even more wary of Hill.

He is truly worthy of being the 'Noble Young Master of the Dark Night'. He has not collapsed even after this, and his calmness makes them think that he has some tricks up his sleeve.

What backup plan can he have? If he was given another choice, he would never put down his travel bag and come after Grant!

Now that he has used this free time to practice dual-sword combat, he feels that he has become very proficient in understanding and using the dual-swords!

To put it simply, the proficiency of dual swords skyrockets from intermediate to advanced. This is really a sad story.

Hill was very frustrated and kept retreating, feeling extremely upset. If he were given a sniper rifle, he could shoot these people outside the forest! Let them die without knowing how!

He didn't know what he was insisting on. Maybe he just didn't want to die so easily, or maybe he wanted to determine who was buying his life.

In short, Hill did not give up hope, but forced himself to calm down and look for a glimmer of hope.

Fortunately, his persistence was responded to. Yaying rushed to the scene at the critical moment, seriously injured one person under the thunder attack, and then faced the second enemy.

"You... why are you here?"

Hill and Grant were stunned for a moment until Yaying seriously injured one of them and the other two reacted.

"This is what I should ask you, right? What's going on? Who are these people?"

Yaying attacked a mercenary and asked Hill with a frown.

She had hurt someone by surprise before, but now the two people had reacted and dealt with her seriously, so that Yaying did not take any advantage.

But Grant and the others felt the same way. When they looked at Hill and Yaying, who were no more than teenagers, they suddenly felt that their own ages had been eaten into the dog's belly.

One of them has been a mercenary for twenty years, and the other has been a mercenary for eighteen years! The strength that has been honed for nearly thirty years is actually comparable to that of these two little kids? ! Are you kidding me? ?

But now is not the time for impatience. Glenn quickly exited the battle circle, took out the whistle from his pocket and blew it.

Hill, who had also been a mercenary, immediately reacted. This was a whistle to call his teammates!

However, with his physical strength severely reduced, he was unable to stop Grant at all. He gritted his teeth and cooperated with Yaying to force the other mercenary back, pulling her and running deep into the forest.

"He's calling for reinforcements, we need to leave quickly!"

"Reinforcements? How many enemies are there here?"

Yaying followed Hill and asked incredulously.

"Six. Excluding the one you just seriously injured, there are five left. But I'm not sure if they have any other reinforcements."

Now that things were like this, Hill had no reason to continue concealing his identity, so he revealed his identity under Yaying's surprised gaze.

"They are mercenaries, and so am I. They must have accepted the commission to get rid of me."

"Then...that thing about Winnie?"

"It should be entrusted by the same employer."

Yaying nodded to express her understanding and did not continue to ask further questions.

Although there are many mysteries that Hill wants to answer, she understands that it is more important to get rid of the pursuers behind her. The fight just now made her understand that this group of people was not a group of people who could be easily dealt with.

With her skills, she can definitely win against one, but if there are two or more, she will definitely lose.

On the other side, Seth, who had originally planned to take a comfortable nap, heard this strange whistle. I closed my eyes and endured it again and again. Finally I couldn't help it and came to the window and opened it.

The wind element whispered in his ear as if he had been waiting for a long time.

"That is to say... Yaying and Hill are being hunted now... right?"

Seth hadn't been this angry for a long time. His fingers that were grasping the edge of the window were slightly white from the excessive force, and his usually indifferent eyes were flashing with anger.

It would be fine if it was someone I didn’t know, but it was Yaying who was being hunted! It would be fine if both sides were equally powerful, but this was a one-sided massacre! Oh, the people that Seth wants to protect will not have the turn to be bullied by such a despicable villain!

Just when he was about to climb over the window and jump down to rescue Yaying, there was a slight knock on the window door. Seth looked down after hearing the sound and saw Allen shaking his head and saying with a chuckle.

"You stay here, I'll go take a look."

"...They are in danger now, I will go faster."

"Don't worry, I will do it as soon as possible. Tell Cecile and the others that I will go to the back mountain to collect herbs."

Hearing Cecile's name, Seth hesitated for a while before finally nodding helplessly.
