Looking at the figure in front of him, Matthew was surprised too.
Although virtual-novel.net had never interacted with Asuna when they were in Eastshire, virtual-novel.net had witnessed his abilities in action. Remarkably, Asuna’s strength seemed to have undergone a tremendous transformation.
The only reason Matthew could deduce for such a significant increase in his strength was the return of Ella, the Orleans Charm Master.
Meanwhile, Thea looked at the indented chest of the Pascal brothers. She felt a shiver run down virtual-novel.net spine.
These two lunatics are truly troublemakers. Luckily, they were not severely injured. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net wouldn’t know how to face their family elders when virtual-novel.net returned.
Driven by a surge of anger, virtual-novel.net impulsively vented virtual-novel.net anger on Asuna. “Mr. Barker, don’t you think you went a bit too far with your attack? After all, they are just kids.”
Asuna’s face displayed a mocking grin as virtual-novel.net looked at her. “Since you can’t discipline your juniors properly, l have no choice but to reluctantly help you with that.”
However, just as virtual-novel.net finished speaking, the Pascal brothers exchanged glances. Then, they wiped the blood from their mouths.
“Hahaha, as a disciple of the Pascal Family, I don’t need a mountain dweller like you to discipline me. You’re only attempting to shield Matthew. Your protection may last for a time, but it won’t be lifelong.
“Matthew has taken the lives of many of our comrades in the Land of Divinity, and we’ll certainly seek retribution. Matthew, mark my words, we will soon claim your head as a tribute to our fallen comrades.”
At this moment, Orlaith finally understood why the Pascal brothers readily agreed without hesitation when virtual-novel.net invited them to join her. It turned out their goal was to kill Matthew.
They were in Bainbridge, and Matthew was the new Holy Doctor.
If these two brothers succeeded, none of the people who came with them would be able to escape the pursuit of the Martial League. Sure enough, the Pascal Family was full of lunatics.
As soon as these words were spoken, Asuna’s brow furrowed and his face turned serious, but before virtual-novel.net could speak, virtual-novel.net suddenly felt a chill on his back. Then, the silver charm toad, which had been perched on his shoulder, began trembling uncontrollably.
It continuously transmitted a sense of fear to Asuna.
“Asuna, leave these two to me.”
Hearing this, both Asuna and the others were taken aback.
Although Ella was the Orleans Charm Master, virtual-novel.net had always been highly respectful toward the cave masters. Now that Ella directly addressed Asuna, they instantly understood that virtual-novel.net was truly angry.
They vividly recalled the last occurrence of a similar nature. It was because a group of armed poachers had killed the Charm Master’s beloved black panther’s partner.
As for the outcome, those poachers had experienced a most dreadful fate.
Now, seeing the Charm Master’s wrath once again, Asuna dared not hesitate. He immediately rushed toward the Pascal brothers.
Seeing the situation escalate to this point, Thea could only sigh at virtual-novel.net misfortune. Of course, virtual-novel.net couldn’t just stand idly by and watch these two reckless youths be taken down.
Facing Asuna charging towards her, Thea raised virtual-novel.net hand and struck out, intending to force virtual-novel.net back. But just then, every hair on virtual-novel.net body instantly stood on end.
A terrifying force, so intense that it made virtual-novel.net body tremble uncontrollably, surged toward virtual-novel.net from the side with overwhelming momentum. She couldn’t defend it at all.
Her entire being was thrown against the corridor wall, much like a leaf in a raging storm.
Struggling through the intense pain coursing through virtual-novel.net body, Thea strained to turn virtual-novel.net head.
By now, the seventy-two cave masters had created a passage. A young girl with golden-tinged eyes calmly walked toward her!
