Chapter 584: Nothing Is True. Everything Is Permitted – Assassins’ Elegy

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
While mentioning rats, we must first talk about the despicable and lowly rats who were hiding in the darkness.
The people here called this continent Lora, which held the meaning of the land lit with bright light.
They called a distant plane Thad, which meant “immortal relic”. That place was also called the Continent of Immortal Relic.
In the land lit with bright light, there was no place for darkness.
However, this world still had existences hiding in the depths of darkness – assassins.
The assassin group named Underground Council trained and kept the most notorious assassins on the continent. It was born after the destruction of the Sunrise Empire which was heard to be a nation full of sunshine. But now, it was reduced to gloomy and damp ruins.
Like the rats scurrying across the broken streets that were filled with potholes, the assassins who hid underground did the darkest business for money, including assassinating officials of other nations and knights of legions. Besides, they did all kinds of dirty jobs that ranged from fraud to stealing. Most people looked at them with disdain.
It was said that the high-level officials in this group had been royal members of this empire.
Of course, other nations also had fighters who worked as assassins, but they were not as despised as those in this assassin group.
By calling the three young people ‘pathetic rats’, Tolf put them into the same category as the lowly and despicable assassins on top of the already degrading superficial meaning.
The moment he said that, more snickers sounded.
It was infuriating to be compared with despicable rats.
The woman from the Golden Griffin Knight Legion who was watching the combat frowned since this word reminded her of something that had happened lately.
Seeing the reddened faces of the young people who had been humiliated in public, she shook her head and thought, These young people are weaker to begin with, and their mindsets are disturbed by their opponents’ words. I don’t need to watch this battle anymore.
“Will you wastrels come together or one by one?” The luxuriously dressed young man named Tolf said with a disdainful snicker.
“I…” The three young people exchanged a look, and they saw the frustration in each others’ eyes.
Their opponents came from big aristocratic families with powerful backgrounds. It was obvious that they were no match for them.
Tolf and his companions chose the weakest opponents… The instructor frowned slightly and shouted with some displeasure, “Begin! What are you waiting for? What did I teach you? Don’t lose your courage for battle even when you’re faced with powerful opponents!”
“Don’t lose your courage for battle even when you’re faced with powerful opponents…?”
“Dodging its harsh attacks and finding its weaknesses before defeating it with any method you can is the wisdom of playing games…”
These two sentences seemed to overlap each other while the three young people remembered their life-and-death experiences with Tyrants and Lickers… and the omnipresent zombies.
Ron slightly tightened his fists and said, “Let me do it.”
Tolf’s face darkened, surprised that these wastrels dared to fight with them.
“You are asking for it!” With a sulky expression, Tolf slashed out with his huge wooden sword!
Obviously, his combat techniques were good, he moved very fast, and his strength was explosive. Soon, he already arrived before Ron.
The woman nodded slightly since the speed and the explosive force that Tolf exhibited were quite good among the people of his level and age.
As for the blond young man, he clearly had less talent and strength compared to his opponent. Although he was brave, it wasn’t enough for him to deal with his opponent.
While she was thinking that the blond young man sidestepped with lightning speed, and the attack missed him.
“He dodged it?”
The blond young man moved three times and dodged three sword strikes. Then, he placed his hand on his opponent’s wrist—anti-joint seizing technique!
The audience watched the unexpected scene with astonished expressions.
They could see that the blond young man’s battle style was totally different from that of Tolf. He didn’t use any combat technique, and his moves were not destructive at all!
According to the common battle style, the blond young man should turn back with a sword slash after dodging to send his opponent flying.
However, the blond young man simply pulled and twisted his opponent’s arm with little effort. With his arm twisted up behind him, Tolf howled in pain and didn’t dare to fight back anymore
What combat technique is this?!
Impossible! Tolf’s mind turned blank. He couldn’t understand how his opponent had subdued him, but he was certain of one thing.
I can’t disgrace myself on this occasion! He quickly signaled the silver-haired young man with his eyes.
“Combat technique – Wind Strike!” Ignoring the rules that they had agreed on, the silver-haired young man directly attacked with his sword.
With the roars of gales, white air currents engulfed the blade of the big wooden sword; it was the condensation of gusts.
This was a combat technique. Each combat technique, even the low-level ones, was powerful enough to afflict great damage.
“Quickly dodge!”
“Dodge?” The silver-haired young man had a cold grin on his face.
The advantage of the combat techniques was that they could only be blocked with other combat technique techniques. They were ultimate moves that could be used in offensive and defensive situations!
How can he dodge it?
The instructor’s face darkened. Even though it was a wooden sword, it would break several ribs in the blond young man’s body. If he wasn’t lucky, he probably would stay in bed for the rest of his life.
While the instructor hesitated and was about to walk up to intervene, the woman beside him suddenly stopped him.
Then, he saw that the young man had moved to the side right before the sword struck him!
This young man dodged it like how he had dodged the Tyrant’s punch that had horrifying speed and force.
Gales whistled past him.
“He… dodged it?!”
“To… together!”
Three vs three! In the next moment, Tolf and his two companions fell to the ground almost at the same time!
The audience members gaped at the scene with wide-open mouths.
These people…!!??
…
