Chapter 34 34. FOUR AGAINST ONE I

Walking away from James house, Noah unfolded his mental waves with it he could see everything in a 25 meters radius around him.

Looking for a place that was private enough to fight, Noah walked down the street, it seemed that patrollers weren't much around that area, even though it was near the city wall.

After about a minute or two of walking, Noah's step came to an abrupt stop, before he furrowed his brows then his voice rang out, "I know you are there, come out so we can finish this", it sounded as though he was talking to himself, but after a few seconds of silence, Noah felt four powerful aura's home on him, as with those aura's, four figures, two from his left and right walked into the street.

Noah couldn't help but be surprised at this, he had expected one or two but four!, and it seemed that they were surprised themselves.

He studied his opponents, but he couldn't get their gender since they were all wearing black robes and covering their face except one man.

Dues to the killing Intent in their aura's Noah couldn't help but ask inwardly, ' What the heck is going on?'

The night before, a few hours after Noah's fight in the alley.

In a mansion of the Culcrow noble family somewhere in Vonol, inside the quarters of the third son, whose name was Milo, there was a young woman kneeling with her head head facing the floor in front of Milo who was sitting on his bed.

"What do you mean he escaped alive Lily?", Milo's voice rang out in a very calm tone.

A shiver ran through Lily's body as she heard his calm tone, since this wasn't how he usually conversed.

"He managed to kill the men we hired, and escaped before I could do anything, my Lord" She said in a solemn tone, to not raise his anger.

"And what were you doing before he escaped?" Milo asked still in his calm tone.

"I was watching. I thought they would be able to succeed since it was one man against six", Lily replied.

"Did I order you to watch them fight?" Milo's voice rang out, his calm tone almost faltering.

"No, you ordered me to kill him immediately I sighted that he was alone" Lily replied, her voice starting to shake.

A few seconds of incredibly heavy silence passed, before Milo's voice rang out, " Raise your head" he said still retaining his calm tone.

Doing as she was told, Lily raised her head, only to be slapped across the face by Milo. It didn't hurt her much since she was a tier 2 , though still in the lower stage. But Milo did stop at one slap, he continued until he began punching her, even throwing her across the room.

Lily gritted her teeth and endured this, though she was stronger than him the thought of retaliation didn't cross her mind, afterall her family were at the mercy of his family, one word and they would be killed.

After a few minutes of Lily being a punching bag, Milo stopped, his breathing ragged from the event, as he said on the top of his voice, " Go clean up the mess at the alley quietly, and call Boris for me now!".

Standing up immediately, Lily bowed and left the room, walking down the mansions hallway that had garden at its side, then she spotted Boris ordering some the maids.

Boris was the man in his fifties who had threatened to find Noah when he accidentally bumped into Milo.

Walking up to Boris she relayed the order that Milo had given her.

Nodding his head, Boris walked towards Milo's quarters, he had seen Lily's dishevelled appearance, though she wasn't hurt, it meant that Milo wasn't in a good mood.

Knocking on the door, Milo's voice resounded, "Come in.", Opening the door, a room that looked like a fight had taken place In it appeared in his sight, but he didn't care about that.

Knowtoing In front of Milo, Boris opened his mouth to talk, "You called for me young master".

"Yes, yes... You remember that bastard of yesterday, I want you and Lily to find him and dispose of him" He said pulling off his clothes.

"Yes young master. Though if you don't mind me asking, what happened to the men you had hired?" Boris said bowing even more.

"That?. They were all killed and that bitch failed to finish the job" Milo said his anger almost peaking, but it didn't. It seemed he liked Boris since he had not raised his voice on him.

Nodding his head, Boris stood up, "May I leave", he said still in his respectful tone. Waving his hand in response, Boris left the room.

Immediately he got out, an evil grin appeared on his face. he was just as bad as his master.

Now this brings us back to the current scene of four humans standing in front of Noah, he recognized the man who didn't cover his face, he was the man in his fifties that had threatened him.

While the three mysterious people he didn't know who they were. So he decided to check.

[Boris[

[Tier: 2]

[Level: 48]

[Chances of death: 50%]

[Lily]

[Tier: 2]

[Level: 29]

[Chances of death: 10%]

[Phelas]

[Tier: 2]

[Level: 35]

[Chances of death: 39%]

[Demios]

[Tier: 2]

[Level: 39]

[Chances of death: 46%]

Noah couldn't help but frown at the results, this wasn't good at all, three of the four had a good chance of killing him, and he wasn't flattered that they were four against one.

Before he could continue his thoughts a voice rang out, "Ah, it seems, we won't have to worry after all, Demios", one of the mysterious men who were wearing black clothes, removed his hood to talk.

Nodding his head, the other man also removed his hood, it seemed they were confident in taking care of Noah.

Before Noah knew it, the third person who was a woman removed her hood too.

Right in front of him, they exchanged greetings, "We are from the Liox family, master Simon asked us to take care of him", The man named Phelas said pointing at his partner and then at Noah.

Nodding his head Boris replied, "That is the same for us too, young master Milo ordered us to deal with gimt, but since you are here we can do it together", Boris said as he shot a cruel glance at Noah.

Hearing their names and who sent them Noah took a deep breath, he was actually a little surprised that Simon would send people to kill him that fast.

After they finished their greetings, they turned towards Noah, it seemed they were relaxed but before he could say anything, the woman name Lily talked.

"You are the thrash that got me beaten, you'll pay for that" She said on the top of her voice seemingly ready to attack.

But before she could, Boris put a hand on her shoulder, "He's way stronger than you, if you do anything stupid you'll be dead before you know it" he said in a low tone, but everybody heard it.

At that Noah let his aura explode, he had tried to hide his real strength so that they would underestimate him, but that had failed miserably.

immediately he did that, a look of surprise flashed on both, Phelas's, and Demios face, they both looked at each other in astonishment, 'He is in the middle stage', the both said inwardly.

Due to his aura, Lily stepped back while frowning, she wouldn't be able to participate too much in the fight.

"Do you all really want to kill me?", Noah's voice rang out with a serious and cold tone.

He got a chuckle from Boris in response, who immediately after, brought out a sword. Infusing it with Mana, the inscriptions on it lit up with a yellow radiance.

Immediately after, Phelas, Demios and Lily brought out their weapons, a pair of daggers, a saber and a knife respectively.

Still retaining a cold expression, Noah heaved a deep sigh. Since they were bringing out their weapons, that meant they were ready to fight.

Though Noah was trying not to reveal too much of his secrets, he wasn't going to let himself die keeping them. So he did something he hadn't thought he would do so early.

He summoned Cudgel!!.
