Black Knight From Blue Star

Chapter 7 A Gentleman from the Civilized World

　　Sam and the six apprentices were let go, and darkness gradually swallowed their bodies.

"We should punish him." Jack was very angry. He was extremely loyal to the Hardy family and looked down upon people like Sam.

“It’s just a chess piece.” Hardy stood up, took an iron sword from the weapon rack next to him and put it on his waist: “Jack, organize your guards and guard your home while I go out.”

Jack hurriedly advised: "Little master, it's very dangerous outside now. Edward is obviously coming for us. If he sets a trap..."

"I know." Hardy turned back and smiled: "I just want to fish him out."

“Then at least bring a few guards with you.”

　　Hardy shook his head: "Just leave the guard at home. Ordinary people can't defeat professionals, and it's useless to bring them."

 "Then why do you still want to..." little master?

 “Because I am also a professional.”

Looking at the little master’s back disappearing into the darkness, Jack was stunned.

 He doesn’t know about Hardy’s appointment as the ‘Nightmare Knight’. Only the maid Lillian knows about it for the time being.

Hardy knew that Sam would definitely go to find Edward, but instead of following him directly, he took a long detour.

 After he became a professional, his walking speed was obviously much faster. Even though he took a long detour, he still caught up with Sam when he returned home.

 Compared to the Hardy family's castle, this is a low house, but it is much better than ordinary people. It has an independent yard and the house is also made of stone.

 Unlike the houses of poor people, the main body is mostly made of wood and mud.

Sam's home is located on the edge of a slum area. After he became the chief blacksmith of the Hardy family, his salary was much higher than that of ordinary blacksmiths, so he was able to build a single-family house outside.

 Around his home, he followed the example of nobles and planted some trees, making it look very peaceful.

 Hardy was hiding behind a tree, probably because his hiding skills were "poor", and half of his body was exposed outside the tree.

 After Sam returned home, he lit the lamp, and soon there were sounds of beatings and scoldings, as well as the sounds of women and children crying.

Hardy shook his head when he heard this. He leaned against the trees and waited quietly for him to be discovered.

 The voices in Sam's house gradually became quieter.

　　After a while, Hardy stood up straight and smiled, because there were several more men in black clothes in front of him.

Standing in the middle is Huoran, the former guard leader of the Hardy family, the mercenary Edward.

This guard leader accompanied Old Hardy to other territories to discuss business some time ago, and then all the people disappeared. Hardy asked the ranger to investigate, and only found the bodies of a few guards.

 The whereabouts of all others are unknown.

"Hey, isn't this the lovely Master Hardy? It's so late, why are you still wandering around outside? This world is very dangerous." Edward slowly approached, with a rather malicious smile on his face. .

Hadi quietly waited for the other party to come closer. When he was still about four meters away, he spoke: "Why are you still alive? Where is your father?"

"Don't worry, I will send you to see him soon." Edward took out the long sword in his hand.

Hardy narrowed his eyes slightly: "Did you guess that I was going to follow Sam?"

"Quite smart, but his intelligence is limited." Edward is a very typical French man, with a bearded face and brown eyes: "You are such a weak young master, why do you have to bring a few guards out. "

 Hahahahaha, Edward's men laughed arrogantly.

Sam also walked out of the house. He looked at Hardy with a little guilt in his eyes: "Little Hardy, don't blame me. If you don't cooperate with them, my family and I will die."

Hardy looked at Sam: "Is it just part of the plan for you to cause trouble at home?"

 Sam did not speak, which was regarded as acquiescence.

Hardy's eyes returned to Edward: "Since I am going to die, can you let me know clearly what happened to my father and why you are targeting our Hardy family."

"If I tell him, Sam will die too." Edward tsked: "I can't tell, you young master is quite vicious. You actually want to drag Sam into the water."

Sam's eyes originally looked at Hardy with a bit of guilt. After hearing these words, his eyes only turned cold.

Hardy actually didn't mean this. He just wanted to get some information. As a result, Edward not only was not fooled, but even turned an army against him.

He is indeed an experienced mercenary, and his thoughts are indeed more thoughtful than ordinary people. Hardy sighed.

Edward walked to a place three meters away from Hardy, pulled out his long sword and pointed it at him.

 At this time, the tip of the sword was less than ten centimeters from the tip of Hardy's nose.

"Leave a last message." Edward smiled: "I have worked in the Hardy family for three years, and I have a close relationship with you and your son."

 “Lane, keep Edward alive.”

 Hardy's voice seemed very calm and calm.

Edward was stunned at first, and then his expression changed drastically.

There was a huge strange noise in the darkness, like the sound of boulders rolling down a high mountain at a rapid speed, and the ground was shaking.

Edward subconsciously turned his head and saw a figure and a sword light approaching quickly.

The sword light seemed to be like a bright silver thread, extending in the darkness, wrapping around the visitor, one after another, in circles, like the silkworms spinning silkworms, or like the lumens of starlight.

 But it was such a beautiful sword light that as long as it was lightly scraped, the person was divided into several segments.

 Several of Edward's men turned into flying pieces of flesh in an instant.

 Before he could point his sword at the attacker, both arms were cut off at the same time.

 The person’s hand was clearly just a sword, but it was able to pull out two beautiful and bright lights at the same time.

Edward screamed loudly and wanted to turn around and run away. Hardy gently stretched out his foot and tripped the former to the ground.

 The blood spurted out from the broken arm. Without his hand, it was difficult for Edward to even stand up.

 The visitor stopped in front of Edward and put away the long sword ‘Morrowind’ in his hand.

Hardy looked over with a smile: "Sorry to trouble you, Ryan."

"We are all brothers, why are you so polite?" Ryan came over, lightly punched Hardy's chest with his fist, and said with a smile: "Just give me a few more bottles of wine tomorrow."

“I will deliver the three best bottles to your home in person.”

"Well, I'll wait." Ryan looked around and said, "I searched around outside just now, and there are no other suspicious people. It's not convenient for me to be here to observe your family's private affairs, so I'll leave first. Remember, come to me and Karina if you have anything, the three of us will be best friends for life."

Under the moonlight, Ryan's short golden hair reflects a faint luster.

The young man’s high-spirited, handsome and sunny personality is clearly revealed.

This is the future brave man recognized by the world: Ryan Lind.

Although he has not yet left home to practice, his skills are already at the top level.

 Then Ryan left first.

 Both arms were broken. Without magic or potion treatment, the person would soon bleed to death.

 But Edward is a mercenary and a professional. His vitality is much stronger than that of normal people. Therefore, until now, his life is not in great danger, but his body is very weak.

Edward seemed to be determined to die. He lay flat on the ground, looking at the full moon in the night sky, his eyes dull.

Hadi looked down at him and asked: "Who instructed you to kill your father?"

"Why don't I want to kill him? I want to take possession of your family's property, is that okay?"

"You don't have that pattern." Hardy shook his head: "And among the guards who followed my father at that time, there were two other professionals. You don't dare to mess around unless someone helps you, supports you, and gives you great confidence. ”

Edward laughed miserably: "You must not be Old Hardy's kind."

"Why do you say that?"

"Old Hardy is very cowardly. He is crying like a girl when he is about to die. His eyes are full of fear." Edward suddenly grinned: "But in your eyes, I see the beastliness of a lion and the cunning of a fox. Old Hardy couldn't have a son like you."

 “How can you slander people for no reason? I am a gentleman in the civilized world.”

　Hardy smiles brightly and cheerfully. At fifteen years old, he is just a big boy.
