This guy was clearly trying to take advantage, egging on Catâs people to see if he could get any benefits.
This rough looking pugilist was actually very resourceful.
Anna coldly watched this nonsense. The only thing about this that satisfied her was that after Brambleâs captain took his stance, the Bramble members stood away, meaning that they had no objection to the contract.
But they didnât leave, and just stood there, apparently wanting to look at the performance.
After all, everyone was curious about how strong Masked Twin Blades was, having suddenly risen to fame.
Cat was helpless, as if he retreated now, that personâs plans would definitely be spoiled.
The penalty fees was a large amount of money, and although that personâs compensation was enough to cover it, it would still be a loss of reputation. This wasnât worth it.
If they could smoothly destroy the White River Valleyâs recovery plan, it would definitely be the best.
It really wasnât good, but they could only try to benefit as much from the situation as possible. After all, they were adventurers and not that personâs subordinates.
âGreen?â Cat asked.
A silent brown haired guy stepped forward when his leader called.
He was wearing a fine set of leather armor, but unlike Marvin, he was carrying a long saber.
That long saber was a little similar to Japanâs katana but wider and thicker. This meant that it would result in a stronger slashing force when attacking a monster.
Green was a cold-blooded blade master. Countless monsters and even adventurers had died under his blade, most of them very gruesomely.
One slash two wounds.
â[Wandering Fighter]?â
Marvin narrowed his eyes, focusing on Greenâs movements. That kind of long saber was only used by the 2nd rank class, wandering fighter.
This guy was obviously not a 2nd rank wandering fighter yet but it seemed like he was thinking of going toward that path.
Wandering fighters had impressive dexterity, but their strength was also quite fierce. With enough momentum, their blade could split someone in half.
In his previous life, these kinds of quick and fierce moves were popular with the players.
But for this kind of class⌠Marvin knew how to subdue them.
âŚ
âMiss Anna, even if you said that we donât need to deal with the caster, we still need to check this Masked Twin Blades strength. Let him fight with our level 5 fighter, we need to be sure.â
âIf we win, you shut up.â Anna said back with an even colder voice, then, with a hint of disgust, âEither get out of here and pay your penalty, or help us repel those gnolls.â
âSure!â Cat answered straightforwardly this time. If Masked Twin Blades displayed martial skills that could convince him, he wouldnât mind temporarily altering his plans.
Being able to go along and complete the mission was good. That person⌠If he had told him that Masked Twin Blades would show up, he wouldnât have come.
White River Valleyâs young lord was truly reckless, actually daring to hire a wanted criminal to recover his lost territory.
According to Catâs information, things were not that simple. A lot of people were watching that territory.
Even if this territoryâs recovery was successful, that young lord might have a lot of troubles afterwards.
Thinking of this, Catâs mood turned a bit better.
But at that time, Masked Twin Blades coldly said, âI donât fight, I kill.â
The living room was frozen!
âThis guy is too arrogant!â
Green, angrily gripping his long saber, ruthlessly rushed to Marvin who was leaning on the counter, intending to kill.
Anna and Andre were both startled. They wanted to stop him but it was too late.
Annaâs gaze was focused on Marvin, not scared that he would be hurt but rather that he would really kill Green.
Missing a team would be very troublesome. Recovering White River Valley was already difficult as it was.
Marvin, still leaning on the counter, narrowed his eyes.
He didnât move until Green arrived in front of him. At that time, he acted.
Reaching the 20 dexterity stage gave him a strong ability to react. His eyes locked onto Greenâs right shoulder as soon as Green rushed toward him.
That body part would move first when the other side planned to attack!
Greenâs right shoulder trembled, giving a sign of him using strength!
Marvinâs body moved forward and he stood in front of Green in an instant.
Everyone shuddered.
âThis kind of reaction speed, along with that weird moveâŚâ
Not waiting for their reaction. âClangâ could be heard as Marvin unsheathed a dagger.
This was his right-hand dagger. Because Green was also using his right-hand, and his strength was definitely higher than Marvinâs, in order to stop his assault, he had to use a slightly stronger move first!
Even though [Two-Weapon Fighting] gave Marvinâs hands more or less the same skill proficiency, there was still a strength gap.
Green was shocked. Before he had time to lift his long saber up he already suffered a hit from the back of the dagger.
âAh!â Green bellowed, before quickly adapting.
He immediately did an attack from below, a small curved slash, the edge of his saber aiming at Marvinâs lower half.
Marvin sneered, âSeems like this brother has seen this trick way too often!â
Second stab!
Left hand.
A simple block that didnât require much skill. As long as he found the spot with the weakest strength on the long saber, he could stop the momentum.
To Marvin, this kind of move wasnât an issue.
âClang!â
Marvin stopped the attack.
But at the same time, Marvinâs third attack was already on the way!
Two-weapon fighting was powerful because of the ability to multitask.
His left hand was blocking while his right hand was attacking!
The cold blade kept flashing under the candle light.
This dagger was aiming at Greenâs neck.
Even if the later was still wearing a leather armor, he would simply be unable to withstand Marvinâs dagger.
The other were watching with a blank look, feeling stifled.
Marvin moves and reaction speed, it felt as if he completely saw through Greenâs moves.
Three moves!
He only needed three moves to push Green into a dead-end!
Cat was shocked, he felt his intestines turn green from regret.
If the dagger really kept going, Greenâs lifeâŚ
âStop!â Someone anxiously shouted.
It was actually Anna.
The next second, Marvin daggerâs momentum slowed, before lightly hitting Greenâs shoulder.
Clang!
Green was sweating. He let go of his long saber and it fell on the ground!
There was an uproar. Green was considered as an expert among River Shore Cityâs low level adventurers.
But he couldnât receive more than three attacks when facing Masked Twin Blades. And looking at his appearance, he had received a huge shock.
As a fighter, to be unable to handle a dagger combo.
If it wasnât for Miss Anna yelling on time, maybeâŚ
Anyway, the fame of Masked Twin Blades in River Shore City should rise.
As for Green.
As someone aiming to be a wandering fighter, he had received a serious blow to his confidence.
It would take a long time to overcome it. Whether heâd be able to completely recover or not was the question.
âŚ
Marvin inwardly praised Anna. She yelled at the perfect time.
Otherwise, Marvin would have needed to deal with Green to keep the image of Masked Twin Blades.
Though, it was something that the two had planned previously.
Marvin would be in charge of intimidating them and Anna would be in charge of soothing them.
That way, the group of troublemaking mercenaries would know their place.
Soon, someone came and helped Green up. Anna noticed that this man was sweating.
It was clear that he felt extremely pressured by those earlier moves.
Rock, standing on the side, also didnât say anything else. This pugilist had a grave expression.
Fear was especially noticeable when Marvin gave him a meaningful glance.
Pugilists would clearly suffer losses when facing daggers. Rock came to the conclusion that he would lose his life if he went against Masked Twin Blades.
This was someone whose blade skills were close to perfection.
Even if some actions were strangely stiff, he was already quite abnormal.
âIs there any more questions?â Anna smiled.
The adventurers in the living room didnât say a word.
The old cripple, seeing what had happened, served food, coffee, and so on.

The tension eased a little as everyone began to eat.
Anna didnât let the adventurers go check in at the inn after dinner; she directly started planning.
First was White River Valleyâs entrance: there were four gnolls standing guard there, and two of them were archers.
