In Castellan's Mansion, six nobles entered the hall one after another.

Castellan Augustine and Baron Vingult were already waiting in the hall. Seeing the six of them, Augustin immediately stood up. "Everyone, please have a seat. Today I've invited everyone here to discuss an important matter of Blackwater City."

"Are you talking about the issue of the robbers, Sir Castellan? We don't know where those robbers are coming from. They appear suddenly and attack our territory. We've already sent our knights to protect the territory. There won't be any large problem at the moment," Baron Parman said.

Baron Vingult who was beside him squinted his eyes and glanced sideways at Baron Parman. A cold killing intent flashed in his gaze. Back then, he had asked in name of Tirath for Baron Parman's daughter, Avril's hands. In the end, Baron Parman decided to let Avril to be engaged to Merlin. On top of that, he did that while most of the noble families in Blackwater City were in attendance. Baron Vingult hated Baron Parman and Old Wilson to their bones.

"Hehe. Baron Parman, the Castellan didn't gather everyone here to discuss the robber issue today." Vingult laughed coldly in high pitch.

Baron Parman's expression changed. Then, he looked at Castellan Augustin and asked in a low voice, "Sir Castellan, you didn't gather us here to talk about how we can deal with the robbers?"

Castellan Augustin seemed cold and detached. He shot a glance at Vingult, seemingly unsatisfied with Vingult's interruption. However, he still spoke slowly, "No, I didn't gather everyone here to discuss the robber issue."

After a pause, Augustin continued his talk but Baron Parman stood up suddenly. He said coldly, "Since it's not about the robbers, then I shall first take my leave. I still have some matters to attend to in the territory!"

Baron Parman's expression was grim and he turned around to leave.

However, when he reached the door, he was immediately blocked by a few knights from the City Defense Troop. Their swords gave off a chilly gleam.

Not only Baron Parman, even the other nobles' expression changed slightly. In terms of status, they were all barons and were equal to Augustin, only that Augustin was the castellan, so he had a larger influence in the city.

Now that he had stopped Baron Parman from leaving forcefully, this was already considered a serious challenge.

"Augustin, what do you mean by this?" Baron Parmen asked loudly in anger.

Augustin's expression was dark. At this time, Baron Vingult stood up and said coldly, "Sir Castellan, since it's inconvenient for you to say it, let me do the work. Actually, it's simple. Sir Castellan and I have already returned to the embrace of God and became members of the church. The church will follow the will of the God of Light and replace the Royal Family to become the Kingdom's master. Now, it's your turn to choose!"

Baron Vingult's words were overwhelming. Baron Parman and the others still could not believe it, so they turned their gazes to Castellan Augustin.

"Augustin, is Vingult speaking the truth? You've gone to the church?" Baron Parman questioned him in a strict tone.

Augustin's gaze toward Vingult showed a slight hint of regret but he was clear that he had to accomplish what Wizard Jason had mentioned if he wanted to strengthen his future social standing in Blackwater City.

Thinking of this, Augustin could only nod and said lightly, "The Church of Light will follow God's will and replace the Royal Family. This is already a fact. You may not have received the news yet, but most parts of the Kingdom are already under the control of the church. So, you should make your choice. Wizard Jason is now in Castellan's Mansion. He said that if you're willing to return to the embrace of God, then he won't mind your previous mistakes and will allow you to become a member of the church."

As Augustin finished his words, up to hundreds of City Defense Troop knights rushed in and flooded the hall and stared at Baron Parman and others with hostility.

Many nobles had fallen silent.

After a while, Baron Parman suddenly pulled out his sword and laughed sardonically. "Augustin, don't forget about the ones who have bestowed your baron title to Augustin family."

Augustin's expression darkened and said with a cold smile, "Baron Parman, the Augustin family's ancestors have fought for the baron title in battle. It wasn't bestowed by anyone."

Baron Vingult stared at Baron Parman darkly and said, "Baron Parman, are you still thinking Wilson will come to save your day? Hehe. I don't mind telling you now. The robbers who attack the towns around Blackwater City are disguised by the Guardian Swordsmen of the church. I'm afraid Wilson, whom you have placed hope on, will never come back again!"

"Wilson… Is he really dead?"

Baron Parman seemed a little sad. He was very close to Old Wilson and their relationship was like brothers. Knowing Wilson's grievous news, he could not help but felt a sense of melancholy.

"Everyone, it's time for you to make your choice!"

Augustin's expression darkened. Suddenly, the City Defense Troop knights around them appeared more murderous than before.

"Do we have a choice?" After a long while, a noble asked helplessly. He put down his sword willingly.

Augustin felt a tinge of happiness. Suddenly, when he was about to say something, the whole ground seemed to tremble lightly. He could faintly hear a series of shouts coming from outside of Castellan's Mansion.

"In the name of knight's glory, charge!"

"In the name of knight's glory, charge!"

…

The shouts became clearer in time and were filled with an austere atmosphere.

"It's Wilson. Wilson is here!"

Hearing the shouts, Baron Parman immediately became worked up. This slogan was too familiar to him. Every time this slogan was shouted, it indicated the arrival of Wilson and his heavy armored knights.

"Not good. It's Wilson's heavy armored knights!"

Augustin and Baron Vingult exchanged a glance, both expressing shock. They had heard directly from Wizard Jason that Wilson had died in his territory. However, it was obviously Wilson who had led his heavy armored knights to attack Castellan's Mansion right now.

Only the nobles of Blackwater City knew deeply how terrifying the heavy armored knights of Wilson was. Even up to thousands of City Defense Troop knights, they still could not defend against Wilson's heavy armored knights.

"Quick. Notify Wizard Jason!"

Augustin thought of Wizard Jason in the first hour and immediately prepared to walk to the back.

"Bang!"

The door in the hall was smashed to pieces by a strong force. A muscular man who wore black armor directly came crashing into the hall. His whole body was engulfed in flames. Drops of red blood were dripping from his sword. A violent aura filled his entire being.

The man was Old Wilson. He crashed into the hall and scanned the crowd. After seeing Augustin, Baron Vingult, Baron Parman and others, he flashed a smile on him.

"It seems I'm not too late…"

Old Wilson's voice was a little hoarse as he held his sword and strode forward.
