At that moment Chopper and Slicer were ready to attack the civilians, but the moment they took a steps forward a figure wearing a cloak appeared in front of the village.
Silence immediately fell at the sudden appearance of the figure who immediately said to the group while pointing his sheath and sword at both Slicer and Chopper.
"you two just wanted to kill the civilians just now am I right and I bet you also put a bet on how many heads that you will take in this village.
At that moment both Slicer and Chopper felt shivers they asked them self if he could see through their transmission technique.
Even at their mid-Commander rank, only with that remark, they knew they were not standing in front of any ordinary man.
Lincon saw their shocked expression and grinned, "don't be scared yet I just read your movement With that, I could tell what you were thinking, firstly those glances of yours reeks of murderous intent and with your leg position you were planning on going separate direction, which made it obvious that they was a competition and where there is a competition there is always a catch, so don't get scared yet" Lincon said as he observed his opponents.
Glancing at a certain individual he then muttered inwardly "this is going to be troublesome." At that moment he was looking at none other than Noel, who then glanced back with a smile and a devilish grin could be seen...
"Nax then shouted you finally decided to show yourself, master".
Lincon then replied "you have grown quite well on your own and took my place as General Commander."
A glint of pain could be seen in the eyes of Commander Nax as he heard those words from his master mouth.
But he quickly reclaimed his composure as he was in the presence of the royal executioner he then asked Lincon, "Where is the queen?"
"She is dead", he answered
"How is that possible when did she die?".
"Nineteen years ago,"
and just as he gave that answer, Frevor for the first time spoke, "Do you expect us to believe that!!!.
After devoting nineteen years of my time to finding the queen, we finally have a lead and you tell us "She's dead!!!".
Frevor then unleash his aura which was carrying a load of killing intent enough to harm the civilians in the village.
as Lincon saw that he also released his aura, just enough to counter Frevor's murderous aura.
After that Frevor prepared to launch an attack with his double baton, but just as he wanted to execute the attack, a voice reached into his head that made him stop,
"If you close up on him alone you will perish," after that he stopped and stared at Noel.
Lincon on the stare of shock in Frevor eyes he smiled, "you should know your place".
After that moment he started building his energy, then Noel for the first time spoke, "he is not lying, he is actually telling the truth and the truth orb is evidence to that," he said as he pulled out a round like artifact.
Everyone there was surprised as the voice they heard, was not befitting of a woman.
Because the name Noel was not a name befitting to a man.
But just then he shouted with a loud voice, "you fools don't look at me that way focus on your enemy"!
It was too late because before they could realize their mistake, Chopper arms were already detached from his body and on the ground.
As for Cruncher's lips, well, it was not in its supposed location, a great scream was heard from both Cruncher and Chopper as they both had lost some essential body parts.
Noel then grunted, "fools I knew you would be useless, but I didn't know you will become a liability" he said as he gently picked Chopper arms and attached them back.
With few chants a white light could be seen and with that Chopper arms where fixed.
he then quickly came to a realization, "my arms, I cannot feel them, I thought you healed them".
Noel grunted "that is because I cannot waste high level healing magic on you, and risk my spiritual energy".
"Furthermore, your useless and won't be of any help, so go on and run away, or you might not survive if the real fight should start".
Not wasting any time he fled and started sprinting to the capital.
Noel then turn to heal cruncher's lips, but it was nowhere to be seen, he then glanced at Lincon who was now holding a chunk of flesh on his hands, the moment Cruncher saw this he paled.
He shouted, but no understandable word could be heard, Lincon then said "I hate noise a lot and you happen to be noisy, so now you can shut the hell up".
Noel then released his aura "it seems like I have let you have your way and I must take responsibility for that".
"let's see how good the ex-general commander of the royal guards can be in battle".
At that moment the aura around Noel sharpened, chains that seemed to come out of his body started attacking Lincon, as Lincon deflected the attack he said "using your special ability from the get-go is that really wise?".
Noel screamed back "shut!!! the!!! hell!!!! up!!! and stop bullshitting me, fight me already you're no ordinary man, no ordinary man can reach the rank of a warlord".
Lincon then smiled but inwardly cursed "damn it this bastard already saw through me, how come he knows I ascended to the warlord rank".
"This is bad, if he can see that then he is at least a level or two above me, damn it".
He then glanced at Commander Nax, then threw the chunk of flesh he held in his grasp into the air and with a swift barrage of swings with his sword he slashed the flesh into miniscule pieces.
After that he took of his cloak and initiated a transmission with commander Nax.
Noel then flew over to where Nax and the other two executioner's where, "stay away its between me and him, if you get involve and die then that's Your loss".
After that Noel released a barrage of attack using his chains but Lincon skillfully deflected them all, but every attack felt like a mountain was about to crush him.
Gradually his hands were growing numb but he stood his ground, then with a swift movement he slashed at Noel and Noel was taken aback because a wave of sharp energy in a shape of a slash was heading his way.
He quickly retracted his chains to form a shield but in doing this he had to block the view he had on Lincon, taking the opportunity Lincon disappeared and appeared at his rear slashing at him.
his sword was blocked by a chain and in a quick succession three other chains attacked him, being skillful he was able to evade two, but one of the chains got through and pierced his shoulder instantly.
