  The latter immediately was dumbstruck.

  Marvin actually released him. He had the confidence he could convince him to talk?

  But then…

  “Dling!““Dling!”

  Marvin threw a small bell to Verne.

  The latter’s complexion immediately changed!

  “This is… What have you done to Dylan!”

  Verne’s face was filled with anger, and he almost lost it.

  “So young, but he has such nice blonde hair. He’ll definitely be a very charming young man when he grows up.” Marvin indifferently added, “His eyes look a lot like yours.”

  Verne immediately let out a cold breath.

  He sat down on the bed, completely depressed.

  Marvin patiently waited.

  “Don’t harm Dylan. I beg you.” Verne displayed a painful expression. “I’ll tell you everything I know.”

  “Don’t harm Dylan,” he repeated once more.

  Marvin shrugged noncommittally. “Talk, I’m listening.”

  …

  “Toshiroya has a hidden treasure map. It is pointing to a place in White River Valley, your castle.”

  “They colluded with Gnolls to invade White River Valley, but the Gnolls breached the contract. Toshiroya was extremely angry, but due to some other matters, he was delayed.”

  “After you recovered your territory, he had even less room to maneuver. The current White River Valley guards’ strength had been improved thanks to Gru’s team joining.”

  “Toshiroya is currently understaffed but he also has no official reason to attack White River Valley. Thus he intends to change methods.”

  Cat’s voice was very dull, but each word was deeply recorded in Marvin’s heart.

  “What method?” Marvin asked.

  “Rebellion,” Verne replied. ” I don’t know much about the details. I was only a hired hand for him.”

  “He is trying to cause a rebellion in your territory in the near future. He will then, with the help of an inside man, take control of the castle.”

  “In any case, civilians would be unaware of what to do. If he takes care of the guards, he can settle everything.”

  Marvin was startled. “You mean, the current White River Valley garrison has already been infiltrated by Toshiroya?”

  “Yeah,” Verne answered. “But I don’t know who.”

  “He is going to make a move soon, so if you want to deal with it, you have to quickly make a decision.”

  “That’s all I know.”

  “Please let Dylan off. He is only a child.”

  Marvin quietly walked in front of Cat, and “Woosh!”, a slash efficiently cut his head!

  He was already a 2nd rank Night Walker, and his attribute bonuses had already been added since it was night time. And Verne was only a level 5 class holder, he simply wasn’t his opponent!

  “People’s sins are their own to bear.”

  “I won’t go so far as to take my anger out on a child.”

  Marvin said this to Verne’s body.

  That small bell was also only stolen from Dylan by the Phantom Assassin Amber.

  Before he acted, Marvin hadn’t had to think about it at all. He had no interest in using an innocent in this matter.

  …

  The door of that now unoccupied cell was pushed open once again.

  A faint shadowy person walked over and whispered, “Lord, everything has been settled.”

  Marvin nodded.

  Having a Phantom Assassin subordinate was really convenient!

  Those keys were stolen by Amber before being tossed to Marvin.

  As for the other five Lynx members, they were also disposed of by Amber, noiselessly.

  Amber’s Stealth was a lot stronger than Marvin’s, and furthermore, he also had a powerful Hide. Thus, he could easily infiltrate the cells, while Marvin had to use some more conventional methods.

  The two people worked on separate things and their progress wasn’t too bad.

  At least they knew what Toshiroya was up to and they still have time to go back.

  Marvin was ready to leave Black Water Prison.

  But at this time, a bright light suddenly flickered in the room!

  Marvin’s heart sank!

  Teleportation Portal!

  No, not a Teleportation Portal, it was a prepared Teleportation Gate!¹

  The next second, a hot woman walked out of the Teleportation Gate.

  A trace of anger could be seen on her face. “Killing in my city without my agreement.”

  “Baron Marvin, this isn’t something a gentleman should do.”

  Marvin forced a smile.

  He was so careful he hadn’t expected to still be detected.

  This was too troublesome!

  Indeed, this lady who appeared in the prison cell was shockingly River Shore City’s 4th rank Witch City Lord, Madeline.

  …

  “Take a trip with me, Baron Marvin.”

  Surprisingly, Madeline didn’t shout, taking a deep glance at him instead.

  As for that Phantom Assassin behind Marvin, she directly ignored him.

  The next instant, the Teleportation Gate was once again activated.

  Marvin’s heart shook, apparently guessing something.

  He could only give a meaningful glance to the Phantom Assassin before following Madeline through the Teleportation Gate.

  On the other side of the Teleportation Gate was a sumptuous room.

  It could be seen that this place was Madeline’s living quarters.

  Marvin had also gone into the top floor of the Ashes Tower. Although Hathaway and Madeline were both Half-Legends, their taste and style was extremely different.

  Hathaway’s room’s colors were clashing, giving out an intense sense of contradiction.

  And Madeline’s was a traditional noble’s room, very luxurious. But too much and too cheesy.

  “Setting up a Teleportation Gate like that. Dame Madeline, it looks like you already knew I would act against Verne?”

  Marvin wasn’t an idiot. Madeline wasn’t a god, she couldn’t have randomly sensed him killing in the cell.

  And that Teleportation Gate was obviously set up beforehand.

  “More or less.”

  “After I came out of seclusion, I handled many things. I also saw many people. However, the one who left me the deepest impression was actually you.”

  “Baron Marvin? Or maybe Masked Twin Blades? Killing his own uncle with his own hands. And slaughtering a Plague Envoy on his way. With this kind of performance, it would be very difficult for me not to pay attention.”

  Madeline slowly walked to a liquor cabinet on the side. “Want something?”

  “No need, get straight to the point,” Marvin said in a heavy voice.

  “Don’t worry.” Madeline suddenly waved her hand, instantly making a magic mirror appear in front of Marvin.

  On the magic screen, White River Valley’s castle could be seen.

  The rear of the castle was actually on fire! The place that was burning was most likely the granary!

  Marvin’s pupils shrinked.

  He hadn’t expected an upheaval to appear in his territory that soon!

  Madeline blinked and said, “It looks like you need my help right now.”

  T/N1: So changed Teleportation Door to Teleportation Portal (Gate & Door being too similar) it’s something akin to the Anywhere/Dokodemo Door while the Teleportation Gate is something like a Stargate, already set up and needing activation.

  Chapter 129: The Overlord Returns!

  Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

  Surprisingly, displayed on the magic screen was the current situation in White River Valley!

  A rebellion arose in the territory!

  Even if Madeline agreed to let Marvin go on his own right now, if he rushed as fast as he could, it would take at least an hour to g
et back.

  By that time, the rebellion might have already ended. Toshiroya’s people might have already taken control of the castle!

  Marvin took a deep breath and asked with a heavy voice, “What do you want?”

  “Nothing. I don’t really care about what you did previously.” Madeline poured herself a glass of red wine. It could clearly be seen that she was a woman who knew how to enjoy life.

  She charmingly looked at Marvin. “This is a world where the strong are respected, and you showed enough potential to make people praise you.”

  “I want to cooperate with you.”

  Cooperate?

  Marvin almost thought he misheard.

  The great City Lord of River Shore City, a 4th rank expert and a Half-Legend, actually wanted to cooperate with him?

  “The Magic Holy Grail.” Madeline finally revealed what she was after. “I need that thing. The news is spreading quickly among the Wizards. Your performance in the Three Ring Towers made people speechless.”

  “I know it’s on you, isn’t it?”

  Marvin couldn’t do anything to deny that, so he simply nodded.

  [Lance’s Holy Grail] was indeed on him.

  Although this item would be helpful for Wayne, after Marvin requested it, Wayne unhesitantly gave the Holy Grail to him.

  ‘Magic Holy Grail…’ Marvin started thinking fast. Since Madeline wanted the Magic Holy Grail, that meant she was about to set out for that place.

  It was a lot earlier than it was supposed to happen!

  Marvin’s heart was somewhat put on alert.

  …

  “Let’s make it simple.” Madeline put down her wine cup and resolutely said, “I’ll help you pacify your territory’s rebellion. And you’ll lend me the Magic Holy Grail. River Shore City will protect White River Valley. I know you already formed an alliance with the Ashes Tower of the Three Ring Towers. But the Three Ring Towers is extremely far away after all.”

  “Even if Hathaway wanted to protect you, she could only rely on her prestige to scare some people with bad intentions. But River Shore City is different. If you are in trouble, we would be able to help out at anytime.”

  “That includes that huge problem you are about to face: food.”

  “I can sell you a portion of our food at market price.”

  Madeline’s voice was very captivating.

  But Marvin knew that this was only a disguise.

  If it weren’t for his relationship with Hathaway, and that Holy Grail being the token of the Three Ring Towers, Madeline might have directly fought for it.

  The reason she instead was patiently negotiating with him right now was only because she didn’t dare to act.

  But from the expression in her eyes, it could be seen that the Magic Holy Grail was something that she absolutely had to have.

  If Marvin declined her offer, he might not be able to walk out of this room today.

  He thought it through and ended up giving a reply that made Madeline extremely shocked.

  The latter thought for a moment and finally nodded in approval.

  Even if Marvin’s request was somewhat strange, the final outcome was more or less the same.

  Thus, a bit later, a giant eagle stopped in front of the window of Madeline’s room.

  “Since you don’t want me to deal with it, I wish you luck, Baron Marvin.”

  Madeline stood at the window, her red nightgown extremely revealing.

  The Great Falcon’s wings flapped, creating a fierce gust of wind. Madeline’s thin nightgown was suddenly swaying in the wind, revealing her fair legs.

  Marvin jumped on the Great Falcon’s back, enduring the gale as it soared to White River Valley!

  …

  The Scarlet Monastery was a place that had been troubling River Shore City for a while.

  Madeline had sent Disciplinary Knights and guards to suppress this evil force several times in the past.

  But those two Pain Monks at the gate made her helpless.

  The Pain Monks were too strong. Although they were only at the 3rd rank, they were immune to magic.

  And if soldiers fought in close range with them, they would have heavy losses due to their lack of expert combat classholders.

  After probing several times, Madeline had temporarily given up her plans on dealing with that place.

  The monsters there were content with what they had, since after that Lich who failed to become a god died, there was no more movement. Though that Lich was actually in a deep slumber.

  But a while ago, Demon God Enforcers appeared near River Shore City!

  These were the subordinates of the 3rd Hall’s master, Avenger Fegan.

  They seemed to be plotting something. This annoyed Madeline greatly.

  It wasn’t like she couldn’t take care of the two Pain Monks, but it would cost a huge number of her soldiers their lives.

  But the emergence of those Demon God Enforcers made her firmly determined to root out the Scarlet Monastery.

  After the purge of the City Hall and the containment of the Dark Sweet Poison, this swift and decisive City Lord began to prepare her third major move after her seclusion!

  And that was attacking the Scarlet Monastery.

  Marvin’s Magic Holy Grail had an impact on this war that was irreplaceable. The Holy Grail’s various Auras and Anti-Curse abilities could give a huge boost to the army’s fighting potential. Even a powerful Silver Church Priest wouldn’t be able to do that.

  Marvin remembered very clearly that Madeline’s attack on the Scarlet Monastery ended up failing.

  ‘The outcome this time might be different after my involvement.’

  ‘But it also might not be. That guy is truly powerful…”

  Marvin leaned forward on the Great Eagle’s back, the deal with Madeline flashing through his mind.

  Madeline would help Marvin get back to White River Valley and Marvin would personally participate in this war.

  He would be in charge of the Magic Holy Grail. Moreover, he also stated that he wanted to have a relatively high priority in picking the loot.

  These two points weren’t an issue for Madeline, as she was interested in neither the Scarlet Monastery’s loot nor the Magic Holy Grail, as long as its effects were used to help.

  Both of them temporarily made a deal.

  What made Madeline the most surprised was that Marvin actually hadn’t mentioned the issue of food.

  Could he have another solution?

  The Witch was puzzled.

  It was safe to say that only River Shore City could deliver food to such a location.

  But whatever the case, this enigmatic Baron Marvin still left on her summoned Great Eagle, only leaving a thin but steady back in Madeline’s sight.

  …

  White River Valley was in a complete mess!

  At the bottom of the mountain, all the civilians were gathered together.

  A youth shouted with a red complexion:

  “Everyone listen!”

  “How long has it been since our Overlord appeared?”

  “Ever since last month, our food supply has been restricted and that Half-Elf bastard still doesn’t agree to receive the kindness from River Shore City’s chamber of commerce!”

  “She doesn’t give us food to eat!”

  “She deprived our territory’s inhabitants of the most basic right! This wasn’t the case in the previous White River Valley, but that’s how things are now!”

  “I suspect she secretly murdered the Overlord and casually modified old decrees, trying to seize our territory!”

  “Don’t you see that fire! That was our painstakingly built granary. The food inside was to be used to get through the winter. Now our food has burnt, there is no more!”

  “That treacherous woman wants us to starve to death. We can’t sit and wait for death!”

  “We have to go to the castle to protest!”

  Many people were moved by the youth’s extremely provocative a
rguments.

  They blindly went to the castle under the incitement of a few people!

  …

  “Miss Anna, what now?”

  Andre looked below the castle, extremely nervous. There was a huge mass of the territory’s inhabitants!

  The garrison had already locked the castle gate a long time ago, but this didn’t make them feel more secure.

  Because they were also terrified, and their hearts were in chaos.

  There had been an increasing amount of rumors in the territory these days, rumors about Anna plotting against Marvin, trying to become the Overlord.

  Ordinary people weren’t very informed after all. Marvin’s amazing performance in the Three Ring Towers still hadn’t spread to River Shore City, not to mention White River Valley, this countryside area.

  When he left, he chose to sneak away in order to avoid unwanted attention.

  But now, there was a huge problem with Anna making the decisions, as she really wasn’t an Overlord.

  She wasn’t the target of those ignorant citizens’ loyalty. She was only Marvin’s butler, White River Valley Overlord’s Proxy.

  “How is the granary?” Anna gently asked.

  Andre said with a heavy face, “Everything is ruined. The remaining food would at most last for a week.”

  Hearing this, Anna almost choked!

  She had already suspected that a mole had infiltrated the castle, but she didn’t think he would succeed.

  With the granary being so tightly guarded, for someone to succeed… She felt powerless.

  If he was here, everything would be fine.

  Anna couldn’t help but think of Marvin.

  But at this time, an arrogant sounding laugh echoed, “Is there something worrying you? My beloved Anna?”

  “You are more beautiful than the moonlight tonight.”

  That was a luxuriously dressed man. He came over and said that despite the fact that there wasn’t any moonlight tonight. He tried to embrace Anna.

  But he was pushed away by Andre!

  “Get away from Miss Anna!” Andre loathsomely said.

  “Such a rude guy. To dare speak like that to the Greatest Alchemist in all History!” That man angrily stared at Andre, “Don’t you know what kind of troubles your territory is currently facing?”

  “If Miss Anna wishes, I’ll go out and solve the problem for you.”

  “No need! Mister Edward,” Anna coldly said, “We’ll settle it ourselves.”
