Xu Tianyu's appearance was really too sudden. They were all veterans who had participated in the orc wars, but they had never met anyone who could make them feel so pressured.
"You … Hmph. The castellan is so busy defending against the orcs' attacks every day. Don't disturb the castellan over such a small matter.
“
Gary's aura diminished a little.
Castellan Phil of Watt City was also a commoner, and he hated the nobles' high and mighty behavior the most.
Hence, when it came to Castellan Phil, he might be the unlucky one in the end.
"A small matter?
Ha. What will you do if I tell you that it's a small matter after I beat you up? "
Xu Tianyu said as he checked on Ergou's injuries. He was only kicked and had some bruises on his body.
Even an adult would feel pain for a while with such injuries, let alone a child.
Xu Tianyu approached Gary furiously, and the surrounding villagers also looked at Gary furiously.
"Xu Tianyu, I'm telling you, don't come over. I'm here on Baron Ronald's orders."
Gary recalled how Xu Tianyu beat him up previously and how Xu Tianyu fought as if he didn't care about his life. He instantly cowered and hid behind the guards.
The surrounding villagers' gazes made him break out in cold sweat.
"Hmm, a baron?
Even if Baron Ronald is here today, he won't be able to protect you. "
Xu Tianyu wanted to speed up and pull Gary out to beat him up, but a guard stood in front of him.
"Young man, I think you should stop. We don't want to hurt you."
"Hmph. As soldiers, you don't protect the civilians and fight against the orcs. Instead, you're here to be the nobles' dogs and bully a child. You're also commoners. When your family is being bullied by the nobles, you can't even protect your family. What right do you have to stop me?"
The few guards were all embarrassed and angry by Xu Tianyu's words. How dare a mere brat speak so arrogantly in front of them?
The few of them adjusted their positions and subtly surrounded Xu Tianyu.
Gary, who was hiding at the back, felt emboldened again when he saw the few guards protecting him loyally.
"Xu Tianyu, you're just a small village chief. How dare you be so arrogant in front of me? Xu Tianyu, if you know what's good for you, you'd better kneel down and apologize to me. Otherwise, I'll let you see blood today."
The surrounding guards even cooperated with Gary's words, and took a step forward together. The gleaming sabers made the surrounding villagers shudder inexplicably.
"Tenyu, let's forget about this matter. Ergou isn't injured. Just apologize. Don't hurt yourself."
"That's right, Tenyu. Admit your mistake. It's not worth getting hurt."
…
The surrounding villagers all tried to persuade them. Some of them even retreated silently, afraid that they would be implicated if they were to fight later.
Seeing that the surrounding villagers were terrified, Gary became even more arrogant. His nose was almost in the air.
"Xu Tianyu, I'm a man of my words. If you kneel down obediently, I'll take it that nothing happened today. Otherwise, when Baron Ronald's knights come, you and everyone else's lives will be in danger."
The few guards surrounding Xu Tianyu also looked at Xu Tianyu provocatively.
"Brat, weren't you very impressive just now?
Why are you scared now? I can kill you with just one finger. Hurry and kneel down in front of Butler Gary. "
"Haha, now you know how to be scared. You should have just been obedient from the start. Why are you always creating so much trouble?"
Gary was very satisfied with the panic of the surrounding villagers. He couldn't help but raise his head proudly.
"Are you done?"
