The moment he met Annan's eyes, Gerald realized that something was wrong.

Unlike what he thought, the other party was not without feelings......

In the field of vision of "consciousness judgment", he saw clearly......

Annan not only has positive feelings, but also neutral feelings.

Only all negative feelings are missing.

At a glance, it is like the sun in the sky, shining and brilliant.

Nearly blinded Gerald's dog's eye.

What the fuck are you-

He almost cursed.

- Since you don't have any tension or fear in your heart, and you never feel this kind of feeling, why do you see such an expression flashing on your face?

And the timing is quite right......

Who the hell are you playing for??

And at this moment, Gerald has realized the true identity of the other party-

If not all feelings are missing, but only negative feelings, it is theoretically possible......

A direct descendant of Grand Duke Winter, he has a supernatural talent called [Heart of Winter]; In the church of the Silent Lady, the god of darkness and veto, the Lady of Silence holds a ritual of inverting the inscription.

If these two abilities are combined, the effect of "missing negative feelings" can be achieved.

But this may be even less likely than meeting a god.

Occasionally, the gods walk on the earth, but this is the only one in the world......

It is said that the bloodline curse of the Winter family comes directly from the old grandmother. The curse contained in the bloodline of the true gods is difficult to dissolve, and it is very difficult for a newborn to live to the age of seven...... That's why they don't even give their children names when they're seven years old.

Now only one lineage and the last four people are left to inherit the blood of Winter, the contemporary Grand Duke and his three children.

…… There may have only been three left.

Among them, there is only one minor.

Ivan Rindon's third child, Annan Rindon!

That's it......

Gerald finally realized why he looked at Annan so familiarly in the first place.

A few years ago, he had the privilege of seeing the face of the "Storm Girl" - except for the completely different temperament on her body, Annan and his sister Maria Rindon looked almost exactly the same as when they were children!

…… But how could he be here?

I don't know when the inverted inscription was engraved, crossed the gray fog, crossed the Black Sea, and arrived at the enemy Noah's Kingdom alone......

…… And disguise yourself as the son of a soon-to-be-destroyed earl?

What is he trying to do?

Why did I meet you?

Gerald's heart was filled with despair.

It's good that Annan wasn't killed, otherwise it would have been known to Maria...... Wherever Gerald fled, she would catch up and kill him.

The more realistic problem is that he found that he couldn't beat Annan.

Although there was also a reason why his abilities as a Soul Revener were completely blocked, he did fall into absolute decline in front of two young bronze wizards......

…… However, it is not without a chance of a comeback.

"Wait—"

Gerald immediately opened his mouth.

- Yes, he intends to surrender to Annan and offer his loyalty.

That's the best way to turn the tables!

If you can't beat them, join them.

As a Soul Reaver Wizard, if you can silently change the hearts and minds of others, you will definitely be able to help them...... Whether the other party is expelled with the intention of seizing power in the future, or planning to carry out some espionage plan in the Noah's kingdom, he is definitely much more useful than the bronze wizard Salvatore!

As long as he is allowed to complete the ritual, he can-

The next moment, a strong sense of laziness filled Gerald's mind.

His mind began to freeze, and his sense of time diminished.

…… In order to...... Enter...... Stairs...... Yellow...... Gold......

"Huh."

Annan chuckled. The gray light under his eyes gradually dissipated, and Gerald's whole body suddenly froze in place, motionless.

What a strange person......

Annan's eyes flickered.

If Annan didn't guess wrong, this guy actually wanted to surrender just now.

I guess I recognized my identity. After all, he is more or less a silver-level wizard, and this self-esteem should still be there...... The identity of the earl's son will definitely not be able to bluff the other party, but the son of the grand duke is different.

- That's not going to work.

Annan swore that he had not been a greedy experience for Gerald when he interrupted him at the moment when he tried to surrender.

Annan just felt it from the bottom of his heart...... It's not cool.

Even killing Gerald didn't feel like it was enough for him.

- This is the first extraordinary battle for players to officially show off their extraordinary powers!

So Annan will not accept surrender.

The possibility of revealing an identity is a trivial matter...... This will only make players feel that there are clues and depths to dig into Annan, and it will also allow players to help them search for the backstory of "Annan".

The most important thing is "character design". In order to ensure his benevolent and generous, cold-hearted, wise and decisive character, Annan regretted that he could not let Gerald say the words of surrender.

- You said that if he surrendered, you killed him again, are you not kind?

That's not going to work, I'm a good boy now.

I'm going to have to kill you.

Annan thought calmly in his heart, and the breath of frost and cold once again erupted from his body.

The frost marks on the ground, which had not yet melted, became evident again, gradually soaking the earth and spreading to Gerald as Annan marched forward.

This time, Annan easily dragged Gerald into the range of the Frost Nova.

The body of a Silver Tier Transcendent is quite powerful. Or, rather, very resistant to curses.

Annan's frost didn't kill him in seconds...... So he had to grab Gerald's throat and seal his eyes with a curse of extreme cold, so that even if he woke up from the control of the lazy eye, he could not say a word or open his eyes.

"—whatever you want to say to me, whether you want to threaten me or bewitch me, my answer is the same."

Annan showed a resolute look on his face, and a cold and pleasant voice came out of his mouth: "My answer is no."

"For the people who follow me. For the sake of my friends, my seniors...... For my people's sake, and for my sake. I can't accept the possibility of complicity with a dangerous, cold-blooded scumbag like you!

"I think these black fires were probably sold to the Viscount by you! The same people who attacked me were sent by you—and you are now buried in my ice, in your own fire, and this is the end you deserve! ”

Annan was talking nonsense sonorously and vigorously, casually pulling the accusation on Gerald's head.

By this time, Gerald had woken up.

His first thought was:

- How did Annan find out?

After that, his second thought was a strong desire to survive.

Whether it's to control Annan, or to shout out his secrets and make him public to force him to turn against Salvatore......

Just open your mouth!

But the ten seconds of frost had already caused Gerald's internal organs to begin to die, his mouth was gagged, his eyes could not be opened, and the previously announced time for the attack had been delayed.

He had no chance of fighting back, so he could only silently stretch his neck in the direction of Annan as hard as he could, and there was a crunch sound on his body—it was the sound of bones gradually cracking.

Unfortunately, I can't get you up and fight with me......

Annan looked indifferently at Gerald, who was still alive and trying to complain silently, and continued to maintain the frost nova.

If it weren't for the fact that his mana value was far beyond ordinary people, he would have probably exhausted the mana in the safe zone at this time and was on the verge of losing control......

Annan even had the strength to sigh in his heart.

The suppression of the silver rank over the bronze rank is also obvious.

Unless you can destroy all the spells that make the opponent, if you change to an ordinary wizard, you really can't kill the enemy even if you empty the blue......

And when a wizard is upgraded, he doesn't add physique attributes.

If you change to a silver-tier swordsman class, will it be more difficult to deal with?

And Annan's mouth cannon is still non-stop, used to "replenish the spare time outside of the fierce battle", so that the picture and plot appear richer and there will not be a gap of a few seconds:

“…… I didn't just kill you for truth and justice. I'm doing it for myself, but also for my friend, Salvatore. Although he didn't tell me why. But he told me that there is only one life between him and you. Then I choose to help my friend unconditionally. ”

His implication was to suggest to Salvatore: It's almost time to tell me your story later, friend.

And Salvatore also showed obvious hesitation.

"I'll kill him, Don Juan."

He thought about it for a long time, and finally made up his mind and said softly.

Annan was suddenly agitated, and looked back sharply.

- You've been fishing since your kid got off the book, so embarrassed to have a black experience?

“…… Do you have to kill him with your own hands? ”

"No, that's not necessary......"

"I can just kill him, but not get the spell on him, right?"

Salvatore glanced at Annan with some strange looks: "That's nature. However, you have no enmity with him, and you will not gain anything from killing him......

"Because I have to get his spell - this, and I'll make it up to you later."

"How can there be no benefit?"

Annan replied without hesitation.

I want experience – isn't that enough?

Unfortunately, this reason cannot be told to Salvatore.

Fortunately, Annan had expected this a long time ago, so he opened the satchel on his waist and took out the "special excuse for grabbing experience" that he had carefully prepared before.

- A blood-stained kitchen knife.

As if aware of something, Gerald's struggle suddenly became a little faster.
