The New Civilization of Witches

Chapter 29: Anger

The castle in Border Town did not always stand in its place. When they laid the foundations for the first castle, the ground collapsed due to the underground cavern.

Therefore, the position of the Castle has been moved. The excavated sewers were mostly destroyed in the ruins, and some parts were still intact, but this section was also discarded due to the relocation and rebuilding of the castle.

When Brian was young, he used to play in these underground tunnels, and one day he accidentally finds a route from an abandoned well outside the castle walls that leads directly to a well in the castle garden.

Brian recounted the news of the discovery to his father, but he was dealt a heavy blow in return.

His father also warned him that trespassing into the king's palace was a grave offense, if he was found, it could only end with a trip to the gallows.

Through this Brian fears for his life and never goes into the old sewer again. However, when people gathered together, they would start drinking and chatting,

and during such an opportunity he repeatedly bragged about his own ability to have direct access to the castle. Now he regrets it. The patrol of the entire city other than the Greyhound was nine people.

In other words, Fierce Scar has assured patrols throughout the city of – and they are now working for Duke Ryan, who controls the western part of the kingdom.

Moreover, the reward was very good, so perhaps only a few people could resist this temptation. The abandoned well was in the part where it collapsed at first, and it was still empty land even to this day.

Fierce Scar orders Brian with his sword to lead the way, and during their trip to Brian's well is caught in the middle of the group.

The waterways that were quite wide that he could remember since his childhood had now become very narrow.

Since no one passed this path, the waterways had dug many holes overgrown with many vines.

The one who stabbed the Greyhound led the way in the front line and held the torch, on the other hand he held an axe to clear the path of all obstacles.

While Brian pretended to remember the path, in the depths of his heart, he secretly thought of a way to escape.

But for such an action, this was clearly a very uncomfortable place, here he had no possibility of escaping.

Only in the castle, there was a possibility to get a slim chance. But how should he do it?

Should he shout loudly to lead His Majesty's bodyguards to them?

No. No, that's a bad idea, Fierce Scar just needs to raise his hand and he'll be able to take Brian's own life,

he had to get away from her, otherwise, his fate would be like a Greyhound. At the thought of Greyhound, Brian's eyes became somewhat gloomy.

Before Border Town was founded, he and Brian themselves had already lived here. They grew up and played together many times, and even joined the city patrol together, which was Brian's idea.

Greyhound never expected that he himself would be chosen as a patrol captain. Brian had been happy for a long time for her, but due to his stuttering, the Greyhound had suffered a lot of humiliation.

But today, he finally got the chance to be recognized – finally there was a chance, thought Brian.

But when the Greyhound comes down and Fierce Scar growls at Brian, Fierce Scar sarcastically tells him straight to his face the real reason why everyone chose the Greyhound as captain.

“Stupid, he was chosen because the captain's important task was to stay behind during the Demon Moon and take care of things, such as lighting a fire to sound the alarm.

We let you do this, because why would I have to do such a dangerous task? “

This sentence was like a sharp knife, directly piercing Brian's ear.

So those who humbly refuse when they get an offer for promotion…

Those words of congratulations were very wrong, their real reason was very ugly.

He showed a look of shock and despair on his face, to cover up the raging anger in his heart.

This was truly inexcusable, Brian was secretly on a rampage, someone had to pay the price for this!

After walking for half an hour through the dry sewer, the crowd could finally hear the sound of running water.

This means that they are not far from their destination. After they made a turn around the corner, the front suddenly became more open and bright,

the open space could accommodate two people standing side by side. The person moving in front of the group said,

"What now?" fierce Scar asked while piercing Brain with the sword.

"Tell him to look up," Brian recounted,

"We've finally arrived." This abandoned channel is right in the middle of the castle drain.

At the time of repair, probably due to negligence, they did not seal this interface. Fierce Scar clung near the wall and looked closely, looking closely,

at his feet the rushing water was as deep as three feet, and when he looked up he could see the night sky through the small hole.

He allowed others to look at Brian, and he picked up his backpack and pulled out a bundle of rope, tied a hook to him and gently tossed it up, just to hear the sound of a hook sticking firmly on the edge of the wellhead. .

The ferocious scar followed the rope, carefully climbing out. Immediately, he pulled the rope from above and another person schematically climbed up.

After a long wait, it was finally Brian's turn to climb the well.

Initially they could only see the castle far away from into the distance but now stood right in front of them.

Fierce Scar grabbed Brian and ordered inwardly, "You come with us to the barn."

Brian only came here once.

Although in his memory the look of the castle became blurred, he still knew where they were, if they forced open the nearest door to the well, they would go straight into the castle.

By this time most of the people in the castle were already sleeping, and the oil lamps hanging on the walls of the corridor had also been extinguished.

In the darkness, someone must light a fire. The weak flames only illuminated a radius of a few feet, but Brian was waiting for his chance, which was bound to come.

When the team arrived at the crossroads leading to the basement, he aimed for the stairs leading down, and suddenly rushed past his bodyguards.

The guards beside Brian were off guard, despite watching every move he made,

Brian just jumped too fast, so they didn't have time to respond, but soon they reacted and jumped down chasing him.

He fell down from the stairs, out of the reach of the light and disappeared into the darkness.

"Oh shit, shit!" The ferocious scar immediately pulled out its dagger and jumped down to chase.

He thought Brian would take advantage of the darkness and would play hide-and-seek with him, so he let his guard down when Brian didn't run away.

He stood patiently at the end of the stairs as if he was waiting for him. Fierce Scar noted that his other accomplice was already lying motionless on the ground, and in Brian's hand was a male weapon.

"Idiot, do you think you have a chance of winning against me?" Fierce Scar took a wary position,

and he could also hear his other men coming down the stairs,

"We have seven people, and you're alone." Brian did not answer;

no longer need to hold back his own anger. He raised his sword and quickly slashed diagonally down, hitting the Fierce Scar sword, instantly creating a spark. Before Fierce Scar could take the next defensive posture, Brian's sword tip had pierced through his shoulder!

Fierce Scar let out a roar of agony, and took a step back to let another man step forward, blocking Brian's pursuit.

This was an excellent place for Brian to fight, with his opponent's narrow alley unable to take advantage of their superior numbers. He only stood in the middle of the corridor and only had enemies in front of him.

He would be able to withstand two people, who would have to fight with swords there side by side.

In fencing, Brian would not lose faith in anyone patrolling.

When this bunch of lazy bastards gambled and enjoyed the bar, he still honed his fighting skills, regardless of wind, frost, rain, and snow, unbroken for years –

this was his choice and the reason why he did not do so.and did not shout for help immediately.

He wanted to personally avenge the Greyhound.
