That's how it is... a light slash with a dagger, and the person is dead.
The feeling of so easily taking the lives of his fellow human beings made Ron feel somewhat uncomfortable.
But Ron did not regret it.
Although he wasn't quite sure who the maid was, or what kind of organization the Guardian Society was.
But based on that conversation alone, Ron was convinced that this was a complete human trafficker.
They make grand pronouncements about preserving the human race, but in reality, they simply take talented children away from their parents and train them in a special way.
The maid's behavior has ruined countless families.
Therefore, Ron did not regret killing the other party.
But then again...
"Reality is indeed different from the Fantasy Beast Continent..."
Ron stared at the corpse, lost in thought.
In the Beast Fantasy Continent, Ron had indeed destroyed some Dark Beasts, but after destroying them, they would turn into specks of light and disappear without leaving behind any corpses.
There is no blood, and you will not see the tragedy of death.
This is probably also the 'gentle' way that children show the world, not revealing the particularly dark and cruel side to the audience.
But that's not how it is in reality.
When a person dies, a body is left behind; when someone is injured, blood flows out; and when someone is killed, you directly experience the fact that 'you killed someone'.
This, on the contrary, will bring a great visual impact to the killer.
This is how it should have been...
Ron was indeed somewhat shocked by the presence of the corpse, but after staring at it for less than five seconds, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
The corpse in front of me... is disappearing!
Just like destroying dark phantom beasts in a fantasy continent, the corpse in front of me, starting from the ankles, turned into pure black magic and disappeared little by little like ashes!
"...?!"
This scene, which defied common sense, instantly snapped Ron out of his rage at killing someone. He stared warily at the disappearing corpse, fearing that the other party might have some second phase.
However, nothing happened until the body disappeared. If it weren't for the bloodstains on the ground, probably no one would have thought that there had ever been a body there.
Ron pondered, Ron frowned, and finally Ron gave up thinking.
"...Let's go check on the two children first."
Ron slapped his cheek, his feelings complicated, and turned to look at the two children behind him.
When Ron got rid of the maid, her mental control over the two children had already ended.
The two children are now huddled together, looking around fearfully.
Strangely, there was no confusion or bewilderment in their eyes, only fear of the darkness and a hint of curiosity about Ron.
It's as if...they know what happened.
Are you alright?
Ron approached the two children and asked them softly.
The first to answer was Denise, her large emerald green eyes sparkling as she looked at Ron with adoration and gratitude, and said:
"We're alright! Thank you... thank you for saving us!"
"...Do you know what happened?"
"Yes! Although we can't move, we can hear and see what's happening around us. We know that you saved us!"
"Denise said loudly."
Her voice was loud and easily heard throughout the manor. Combined with the commotion from Ron's fight with the maid, the manor should be able to realize soon that their young lady is missing.
This can be seen from the lights that are on in the manor.
Knowing he couldn't stay any longer, Ron didn't bother to comfort the two men. He casually said to them:
"It's good that you're all alright."
After saying that, he prepared to leave.
But as soon as he turned around, he heard Denise call out from behind:
"Wait a minute! I...can I know your name?! Even a pseudonym would be fine!"
"...Frostwolf...just call me that."
Ron came up with a pseudonym in less than a second.
The phantom beast that Ron has now formed a contract with, allowing him to transform into a phantom beast warrior, is a frost wolf, so calling him Frost Wolf is perfectly acceptable.
After telling Denise his name, Ron immediately leaped away and disappeared into the moonlight in the blink of an eye.
No sooner had Ron left than Lord Gus, the lord of the manor, arrived without even changing his clothes, carrying a greatsword.
"Denise! My daughter! Are you alright?!"
He looked wary and angry, as if he was about to explode at someone.
Denise ignored her father's worries. She stared blankly in the direction Ron had disappeared, murmuring to herself with a lovesick expression:
"Master Frostwolf..."
Old father Gus: "?"
Oh no! There's a blond guy!
Chapter 47 Combat Stats and Combat Experience
Boom boom boom!
Ron had just returned to his room when he heard someone banging on the door frantically.
Pretending to have just been woken up, Ron went up and opened the door, only to see Vito standing outside looking nervous.
Vito's tension vanished when Ron opened the door. He breathed a sigh of relief and said thankfully:
"Ron! You're alright...? That's great."
"Teacher Weituo? What happened?"
Ron looked at Vito, puzzled.
Vito was wearing casual clothes, but if you looked closely, you would notice that several of his buttons were fastened incorrectly, which meant he was in a hurry when he ran over.
Is she worried that she will be abducted by the guardian spirit?
"It's nothing." Vito breathed a sigh of relief, having no intention of explaining the situation to Ron. He said to Ron, "It's good that you're alright. Go and get some rest. Sorry to bother you so late."
After finishing his sentence, Vito prepared to leave.
But after taking only two steps, Vito turned back and said to Ron, "...Never mind, since you're awake, come with me. You'll stay at my place tonight."
"Teacher Weituo, what exactly is going on?"
Ron looked completely bewildered.
A normal person, if woken up in the middle of the night and asked to move to another place, would definitely ask what happened. Ron simply reacted as a normal person would.
"Something happened at the manor. Miss Denise and Harwick were almost kidnapped, so..."
Vito didn't continue. He paused briefly and said to Ron, "Anyway, I'll feel more at ease if you stay at my place tonight."
"Abducted?! Are Harwick and Miss Denise alright?"
Ron asked in surprise.
Vito shook his head: "They're fine. They... were saved by a mysterious person."
"A mysterious person?"
"This has nothing to do with you. Go to my room and get some rest. We'll talk about it tomorrow."
Vito had no intention of explaining things in detail to Ron. After offering one more word of advice, he led Ron to his room.
After settling Ron in, Vito left the room and headed toward Lord Gus's study, seemingly preparing for an all-night meeting.
Ron didn't follow, nor did he use his psychic vision to spy.
After all, Vito was a mid-level mage, and Lord Gus was a high-level knight. Using Mental Eye in front of the two of them would be like showing off one's axe in front of Guan Yu.
But Ron didn't rush to catch up on his sleep. He lay in bed and reflected on the battle.
First, he underestimated his own strength.
Ron previously thought that even with some self-defense capabilities after his transformation, he was still far inferior to the strong individuals in this world.
At that time, Ron positioned himself somewhere between a lower-level professional and a mid-level professional.
Because he had never seen a professional fight, he was not very clear about the difference in strength involved.
Therefore, when facing the thief maid, Ron's initial thought was not to fight her, but to take the children back to the manor and attract the strongmen of the manor to confront the thief maid.
