Chapter 122: Chapter 106: Kolon: Let Me Go, I Want to Duel Him One-on-One (2)

Silence, a deathly silence.

No one spoke at this moment.

Even the onlookers were looking at Thor with shock in their eyes.

Great Knight.

This was clearly a Great Knight.

And not just any Great Knight, but one possessing a special Life Source Power.

Manel felt layers of cold sweat seeping from his forehead.

A bone-chilling cold spread throughout his body, and he had a feeling that if he dared to move at this moment, he would really die.

He dared not move.

And Thor slowly walked over to the fallen Kolon.

The cold sword edge descended.

Thor’s long sword rested on Kolon’s neck.

But just at that moment.

"Tap tap!"

The urgent sound of hooves rang out, as a group of knights quickly approached from afar.

"Stop!"

A loud shout erupted.

The next moment, a shadow swiftly appeared in front of Thor.

The figure’s face was somewhat grim.

"Do you not know it is forbidden to take action in Loren City?"

The figure’s expression turned sour as they surveyed the shattered scene around them, eyes instantly locking onto Thor, eyebrows gradually furrowing.

"Knight of Chronia, it was him, he’s the one who attacked!"

Seeing the newcomer, Kolon’s expression lit up and he quickly spoke.

Hearing Kolon’s words, Chronia frowned and could not help but look toward Thor.

"According to the Kingdom’s law, Article 32, when a commoner provokes a noble, the noble can take any action, including and not limited to, killing."

"Knight of Chronia, as a noble, a commoner dares to provoke me in Loren City, I need an explanation, or I don’t mind expressing my concern to the Marquis." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Thor ignored Kolon and spoke calmly instead.

"Who are you?"

Chronia was taken aback for a moment, then couldn’t help but size up Thor.

"Thor Dressrosa!"

Thor spoke calmly.

"It’s you."

Chronia’s eyes narrowed, carrying a hint of surprise.

"Hmph, you are nothing more than a temporary noble, not enjoying the protection of Kingdom law!"

"Knight of Chronia, he acted in Loren City without authorization, he violated Loren City’s laws, arrest him."

Kolon couldn’t help but speak, with a hint of resentment in his expression.

"Shut up!"

Chronia snapped coldly.

Only then did Chronia give Thor a slight bow of knightly courtesy.

"I sincerely apologize for our oversight."

Chronia spoke respectfully, waving a hand.

A number of knights quickly stepped forward, subduing Kolon’s Knight Order.

"What are you doing?"

"It was him!"

"He clearly attacked first."

Kolon was dumbfounded, carrying an expression of anger and fear.

But before he could continue, his mouth was sealed by the knights.

"Baron Thor, shortly, I will provide you with a satisfactory answer."

"I sincerely apologize."

Chronia continued respectfully.

"I hope so!"

Thor nodded calmly.

After Chronia bowed slightly, the figure quickly departed.

Thor did not obstruct.

Killing Emerson was obviously impossible.

Nobles value face.

Killing a noble heir, especially in broad daylight, would be a blatant affront to the Emerson Family and that Marquis; if that happened, Thor would be in a big trouble.

So from the start, he only intended to teach a lesson.

Now that Loren City officials took him away, Thor believed he would soon receive a satisfactory answer.

Even if Kolon is unwilling, Loren City would compel him to comply.

In fact, it turned out to be true.

Only the next day, a response came.

Loren City would return the price he paid for the materials this time as a response, and Kolon Emerson would pay three thousand gold coins as compensation for his foolish actions.

Thor directly received two thousand gold coins.

A thousand gold coins were part of what Kolon Emerson paid first, and a thousand gold coins were half of the cost of the materials, which was Loren City’s compensation.

Of course, this compensation also came from Kolon Emerson.

However, this had nothing to do with Thor.

He didn’t care about these things.

In receiving the remaining two thousand gold coins, they would arrive within three months.

Three months.

He certainly couldn’t wait in Loren City for three months.

Two thousand gold coins weren’t worth his time.

As for this answer, he was satisfied with it.

Although he previously stated he wanted Kolon to compensate five thousand gold coins, that was just talk, something impossible.

Receiving three thousand, plus Loren City’s one thousand, was already considered a very impressive gain.

Even for his current territory, this revenue was almost equal to half a year’s earnings.

And not guaranteed, due to the turmoil in the Northern Lands, trade routes were gradually affected, most noticeably in his reduced gold coin income.

A month ago, he could get about seven to eight hundred gold coins, and if lucky, maybe over a thousand.

But now, it’s about five to six hundred gold coins.

It could be anticipated that this would continue to decrease until the turmoil in the Northern Province gradually subsides.

Or he could open routes further west.

After all, at this moment the fleeing Lords of the entire Northern part were more than seventy to eighty percent; at least half, the trade routes and trades had been greatly affected.

By comparison, the Western Territory was slightly better off.

However, trying to open trade routes to the West was no small task.

As opposed to the North which was mostly devastated, and the sparse East, the Western Territory was abundant, including powerful Lords.

Over thirty Baron Lords are gathered there, with more than eighteen in the West alone.

Among them, several incredibly powerful Baron Lords and Pioneer Lords existed.

Some powerful Lords were even equal to or surpassed some Viscount Lords.

They also had complete trade systems.

He wanted to break in.

Not only was there no entry point.

But also very difficult.

This was why Thor had not planned to send Rajos to the West anytime soon.

Inadequate strength and hasty entry would not be wise.

Especially with no entry point, it was even more so.

"Hopefully, this ends soon!"

"At the very least, a Beastman War should not break out, or else it would really be trouble afterward."

Thor could not help but sigh and shake his head.

Then, bringing Reine along, he began handling this task’s settlement.

It involved merit points from the task and merit points from the Tier Two Beastman.

These merit points were substantial.

Ultimately calculated.

He managed to acquire over six hundred merit points.

Getting a step closer to the merit required for being ennobled as a Viscount.

Even the office was somewhat astonished.

Nonetheless, Thor wasn’t overly concerned.

These merits were not enough for him.

His goal was not just the Viscount title, but something higher.

As the night passed.

After completing his final tasks, Thor started his return to the Eagle Territory with his men.

Came with a full load, left with a full load.

Thanks to Kolon’s sponsorship, Thor not only purchased a large amount of supplies but spent not a single gold coin.

As Thor returned.

Kolon Emerson was left with nothing but despair.

Because just now, Manel, his last remaining Great Knight, had left.

Silently left.

And not just that.

Loren City had already notified his family.

He could almost foresee his fate.

"Bastard!"

"Manel!"

"Dressrosa!"

Kolon was in a rage, furious over Manel’s disappearance, furious at Thor, but none of it was to any avail.
