The Wrath he became, the calmer Qin Chu's expression appeared. His face was gentle, showing no trace of murderous intent.

Zahar, unaware of Qin Chu's feelings, saw that Qin Chu was even smiling and assumed that the Hero had taken his words to heart. It seemed that the people of this other world weren't so hopeless after all. He decided to give the Hero a proper lesson in etiquette so that the Hero would understand the rules of high society.

"Hero Excellency, please forgive my bluntness, but the title of 'Hero' is extremely prestigious in the Skyvault Continent, and therefore, one must observe the etiquette of Hero... First and foremost, one must not casually interact with those below..."

Zahar's incessant chatter irritated Qin Chu.

Upper class?

Augustus considered part of high society?

Is Saint Monica considered high society?

Does Wadsworth count as high society?

Even someone of Wadsworth's status could still chat casually with Qin Chu on the street, putting his arm around his shoulder and calling each other brothers. Was Wadsworth's status not prestigious enough? Did Wadsworth not know the decorum of nobility?

Suddenly, Qin Chu began to understand Zahar's feelings.

Perhaps only a nobleman like Zahar, from the lowest rungs of society, needs to rely on this so-called etiquette and decorum to maintain his pathetic and fragile dignity.

"Karin, can you close your eyes? It'll only be a moment. I might need to clean up some trash," Qin Chu suddenly said gently to Karin.

This girl, who was willing to speak up for him after his execution, held a completely different meaning for Qin Chu.

Karin nodded obediently and closed her eyes.

Qin Chu used Magic Power to block Karin's hearing.

The next second, Qin Chu's gaze suddenly turned silvery-white, with silver flames seemingly leaping in his pupils. His icy gaze swept across the room, and wherever it touched, Zahar's incessant chatter abruptly stopped. He felt an indescribable sense of oppression, and his heart ached as if it were being twisted in knots.

His face was contorted with pain.

A mournful whine, like that of a wounded wild dog, came from its throat.

Not only Zahar, but the other three Knight beside him had the same reaction; they simply didn't understand what was going on.

Just then, they heard a cold, emotionless voice coming from Qin Chu ahead.

"Perhaps there's a difference in Karin parents' backgrounds... You say you're different..."

"But you have to admit, there is one thing you have in common!"

That is... there is only one life.

"Want to give it a try? Let's see if your Knight status can grant you an extra life?"

At this moment, Zahar and the others finally understood that all their pain was caused by the Hero. They opened their mouths as if to shout, but no sound came out.

Right before four pairs of terrified eyes, Qin Chu's battle Battle Qi instantly transformed into silver flames, which spread forward with a whoosh.

A wave of excruciating pain swept over him, Zahar's consciousness vanished instantly, along with their souls, which were reduced to ashes in the silver flames.

The variant of Starflame Battle Aura Qi is far more powerful than the original version used by Ekaterina.

Qin Chu didn't even use any martial arts techniques; he simply released his Battle Qi, which was enough to overwhelm these so-called Knight.

Karin's eyelids were still trembling. After a long while, she finally opened her eyes. The four fierce-looking Knight in front of her had disappeared, leaving only some ashes scattered in mid-air.

"What about the four Knights?" Karin asked cautiously.

"They realized their mistakes and left in shame," Qin Chu said lightly with a shrug, then put Karin on the ground. "Karin was a good girl, right? Can you keep your eyes closed for a little longer this time? Can you open them only when I tell you to?"

Karin nodded her head vigorously, then closed her eyes tightly.

Qin Chu exhaled, blocking Karin's hearing and looking around. The streetlights could only illuminate the ground beneath his feet, and the sides of the road were shrouded in deep darkness.

"Come out."

He said something completely out of the blue.

A few seconds later, a rustling sound suddenly came from the shadows on both sides of the road. The next second, figures dressed in black and masked, dressed as typical villains, appeared around Qin Chu.

Thirteen auras, thirteen assassins, all with auras around level sixty, not bad.

Because Qin Chu now has Violet as a powerful companion, and Qin Chu has also demonstrated considerable strength, Qin Chu has more freedom of movement and no longer needs to be surrounded by a large number of guards at all times.

Unexpectedly, on the very first day without guards, they encountered so many assassins.

Qin Chu seemed a little sleepy. He yawned and glanced at the leader in front of him. This guy was the strongest, around level sixty-five.

In the Skyvault Continent, he is already considered a fairly good expert.

"Was it that idiot Lance who sent you?"

"Looks like I really overestimated that good-for-nothing. I thought he would have some patience."

Qin Chu's words clearly Wrath the assassins. They were Lance's trained assassins, and in their hearts, Prince Lance was the only one. They did not believe in the Goddess of Holy Light, nor in the Earth Mother; Lance was their only faith.

This training method ensures the loyalty of these loyal followers, but it also has another drawback: they are easily angered when their beliefs are insulted.

The assassins' eyes turned bloodshot, and with a whoosh, they drew their weapons, the blades gleaming coldly in the moonlight.

"Qin Chu, don't think you can act with impunity just because you're Hero. Today is your death day."

Perhaps because there was no one else around, Qin Chu didn't need to pretend to be weak.

He grinned, a mocking smile on his face, "Want to kill me? You think you can? You're not worthy!"

Thank you for the donation and support from "Can you give me a random name?"

Chapter 133 As assassins, you are very unprofessional (3)

Although it was meant to mislead the opponent, pretending to be weak all the time was honestly quite annoying.

Occasionally, it's necessary to fully demonstrate one's abilities to feel truly satisfied.

In addition, Qin Chu already had a lot of pent-up anger in his heart, and the appearance of these people was just the right time for him to vent his fury.

Qin Chu didn't take the thirteen assassins seriously at all. He had already placed Karin on the ground and had Saya stay by Karin's side. With Saya protecting her, no one could harm Karin.

As for Qin Chu, he was moving his hands.

Having not stretched his muscles and bones for a long time, Qin Chu felt that his limbs were a bit stiff, and his ten fingers made a cracking sound as they intertwined.

Seeing that Qin Chu not only did not surrender but even wanted to resist?

Everyone was stunned. Was this Hero not quite right in the head?

Could it be that he couldn't see the extent of the difference in strength between the two sides? The Hero he summoned this time is truly an idiot.

The assassin leader knew it was best not to say much to Qin Chu in this situation, so he simply and swiftly eliminated Qin Chu, then took Qin Chu's head to Lance to report the mission and collect the reward...

Of course, the woman next to him couldn't be spared either; what happened tonight couldn't be discovered by anyone.

But the leader just couldn't help himself.

He even wanted to laugh.

Just think, being able to personally kill Hero of such high status is truly an exciting thing.

"Qin Chu, you don't actually think that defeating Horne makes you some kind of expert, do you? Putting aside the fact that you attacked him by surprise, even if you did defeat Horne in a duel, so what?"

"To us, Horne is trash. Any one of us thirteen could easily defeat Horne. Now, Ekaterina and that tall woman aren't with you. You don't really think you can take us on by yourself, do you?"

"If you obediently kneel down and surrender, perhaps you can die a little more quickly."

Prince Lance would be very happy if he could thoroughly humiliate the Hero.

They were highly skilled fighters carefully trained by Prince Lance, completely different from trash like Horne. From the very beginning, they learned how to quickly end a life.

With Scarlet Valkyrie and Violet not by Qin Chu's side, taking Qin Chu's life would be as easy as turning one's hand.

The Hero's strength indeed increased very quickly. Being able to reach a level sufficient to defeat Horne in such a short time is enough to prove that the Hero's talent is amazing, surpassing anyone else on the Skyvault Continent.

However, he had only been on the Skyvault Continent for a very short time, far too short for the Hero to raise his strength to a level where he could fight them.

Thirteen against one, the advantage is mine.

I have absolutely no feeling that I might lose.

Qin Chu had finished stretching his limbs, and he impatiently beckoned with his finger. "Why are you babbling on and on? Are you all women?"

Hiss...

Qin Chu showed no fear whatsoever; in fact, he dared to provoke them, which clearly enraged the assassins. Although their faces were covered by black masks, revealing their expressions, their eyes were practically blazing with intense heat.

The next second, one of the assassins suddenly swayed and vanished from the spot.

This is the most basic skill of an assassin: stealth.

Qin Chu's smile grew wider and wider, his eyes narrowed into slits, and two seconds later, his right hand suddenly shot out to the side, his five fingers bent like an eagle's claw.

Under the streetlights, a figure gradually emerged like ripples on water.

It was the assassin who had just disappeared. At this moment, Qin Chu had grabbed his neck. With just a little force, the assassin's face twisted violently with pain and suffocation.

Qin Chu had lifted his entire body high into the air, and his legs were struggling desperately in mid-air.

The dagger in her hand was knocked away by Qin Chu in an instant.

Looking up into those eyes filled with Wrath and shock, Qin Chu's smile deepened, "As assassins, you are very unprofessional."

The next second, there was a whoosh, and the thin body was slammed heavily to the ground by Qin Chu.

The earth trembled violently, as if an earthquake had struck.

Cracks spread out like ripples.

A series of crackling sounds seemed to be heard in his ears. Assassin Number One's body had curled up into a ball, and countless bones throughout his body had been shattered. The mask on his face was quickly stained a dark color by the blood spurting from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.

"First of all, as assassins, you must never underestimate your targets, no matter how weak they may seem. You must treat them with utmost care."

As she spoke, Qin Chu Chuyou stepped back.

Two sharp whistling sounds of blades tearing through the air rang out; Assassin Number Two and Three had launched their attack.

Although both assassins were invisible, Qin Chu could easily discern their location from their faint outlines in the air.

He stomped his foot hard on the ground, and a burr suddenly shot out from the ground, piercing through the body of an assassin with a soft thud.

The second assassin hung on the earthen spikes like a piece of cured meat, blood gushing from the holes he had been pierced. He wasn't completely dead yet; his body writhed like a worm.

"Secondly, as assassins, your best option after I detected your presence would have been to retreat immediately, rather than actively engaging in combat."

As soon as the words fell, Qin Chu suddenly turned around and stretched out his left hand forward, his palm burning with intense silver Battle Qi.

With a hiss, the sharp dagger tore through Qin Chu's palm, producing a sound like metal scraping against metal.

Qin Chu's palm showed no signs of tearing; his silver Battle Qi completely blocked the blade. And that wasn't all. When Qin Chu's five fingers gripped the dagger, his Battle Qi, like a venomous snake, instantly spread along the dagger, directly coiling around the body of Assassin Number Three.

With a piercing scream, the third assassin was instantly burned to ashes. Even the steel dagger he used turned into liquid and scattered on the ground with a hissing sound.

"Thirdly, as assassins, you should never be easily angered by my provocation. Maintaining absolute rationality is the most basic quality of an assassin."

He crouched down, pressing one hand on the ground.

"The Earth’s Embrace."

Rumble...

A rumbling sound, like an earthquake, came from the ground beneath our feet. Accompanied by violent tremors, the earth cracked, and large amounts of mud and sand poured out from under the road surface.

It spun violently in mid-air like a whirlwind, instantly engulfing Assassin Number Four, who was preparing to fire a crossbow bolt from a distance.

With a piercing scream, Assassin Number Four's clothes were instantly torn apart, his entire body covered in countless tiny wounds. Then, the spinning shrapnel dragged Assassin Number Four's body directly into the mud, and the solid road returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.

"Fourthly, as assassins, if you really want to carry out an assassination, you must unleash your strongest power instantly and swarm in, instead of coming to your deaths one by one like you are doing."

All around, there was a deathly silence.

The remaining nine assassins, who hadn't had time to react, stood frozen in place, their bodies trembling violently as if they'd been electrocuted.

Near the forehead exposed by the black mask, drops of sweat could be clearly seen rolling down, and the mask was almost completely soaked.

Their eyes trembled violently as if struck by an earthquake, a deep, unyielding fear seeping into their pupils...

This... this is impossible.

In just a few seconds, the four brothers had died at the hands of the Hero.

Each of them possessed greater strength Horne, yet almost every one of them was instantly killed by the Hero.

When did the power of Hero become so great?

Magic? They had never heard of the Hero learning magic. This man shouldn't have any Magic Power at all, but now the Hero could not only use magic, but also cast it instantly without even needing a spell.
