So, carrying the Glimmering Battle Axe, I headed west out of the village.

Perhaps the Glimmering Battle Axe, this black iron weapon, was simply too eye-catching, and soon, quite a few people cast surprised glances my way, but it was only surprise, nothing more.

However, not far from the village, I heard a voice behind me: “Friend, may I discuss something with you?”

I turned around and saw three level 6 players standing behind me. It seemed they had been following me for a while, and their names were quite similar: “Ryan Knight”, “Logan Knight”, and “Ethan Knight”.

It’s worth mentioning that Logan Knight was actually a girl—a very pretty young woman. The simple newbie clothes couldn’t hide her graceful figure, and her prominent curves looked like they were about to burst out of her outfit!

If I hadn’t already met a stunning beauty like Ling Xue, I might have been completely captivated by this Logan Knight.

I glanced at them and said, “What do you want?”

Ryan Knight laughed heartily, pointed at my Glimmering Battle Axe, and said, “Your weapon—are you selling it?”

I shook my head firmly. “Of course not!”

Ryan Knight’s gaze turned cold. “What if I insist on buying it?”

My heart tightened, but I immediately squinted and smiled. “And how exactly do you plan to buy it?”

Volume One: The Comeback Chapter 9 The Knight Family

Ryan Knight suddenly drew a longsword, which also seemed to be an iron sword—probably a white-grade weapon, with no luster. Meanwhile, Ethan Knight brandished a slender dagger, which also looked like a white-grade weapon!

Seeing my expression change slightly, Ryan Knight laughed and said, “You see, there are three of us, and only one of you. If you’re willing to sell that weapon, I’ll pay a high price. But if you insist on refusing, then don’t blame me for doing a business with no capital!”

It was obvious that Ryan Knight was jealous of my Glimmering Battle Axe. Looks like this won’t end peacefully.

So, I smiled and said, “If that’s the case, let’s get on with it. My time is precious!”

Ryan Knight immediately gripped his iron sword and said angrily, “Don’t know what’s good for you!”

At this moment, Logan Knight grabbed Ryan Knight’s hand and shouted, “Brother! Why are you up to your old tricks again? Didn’t you promise me you’d be a good guy in Ling Tong this time? Why are you making enemies again?”

Ryan Knight chuckled, “This kid doesn’t know what’s good for him. I’m just going to teach him a lesson!”

Logan Knight immediately pouted and stood aside, saying, “Fine, do it yourself. I’m not getting involved!”

“Heh, Ethan and I are more than enough!”

Ryan Knight glanced at me and said, “Such a noob, I don’t even take you seriously!”

I chuckled, my expression turning cold as I charged forward, swinging the Glimmering Battle Axe through the air!

“Puff~!”

A clump of spring mud was sent flying, but it didn’t even come close to hitting Ryan Knight!

Immediately, Ryan Knight made no effort to hide the contempt in his eyes and laughed loudly, “As expected, a noob. Ethan, let’s take him together!”

The iron sword slashed down, and at some point, Ethan Knight had moved to my right side, his dagger stabbing at me without warning!

“Puff puff~!”

I felt a slight pain, and two numbers floated above my head: “24”, “32”!

At once, Ryan Knight and Ethan Knight were both shocked and couldn’t help exclaiming, “That’s… such high defense!”

The two of them combined only managed to take less than a quarter of my HP, which left Ryan Knight and Ethan Knight utterly astonished. At the same time, both of their names had turned gray, indicating malicious attack mode. This was exactly what I’d been waiting for!

“Whoosh~!”

The Glimmering Battle Axe swept through the air, this time landing precisely on Ethan Knight’s chest. With a crisp sound, the sharp axe sent Ethan Knight flying, and before he even hit the ground, he had already turned into white light and returned to the city!

Ryan Knight was instantly enraged, charging at me with his iron sword and cursing, “Bastard, you killed my brother!”

Without a word, I swung the Glimmering Battle Axe from the right, smashing it into Ryan Knight’s armpit. The damage number “178” popped up above his head, but he didn’t die. His iron sword landed on my shoulder, dealing a pitiful 27 points of damage!

I couldn’t help but sneer, brushing past him and saying in a low voice, “If you don’t have the skills, don’t try to act tough!”

“Smack!”

With a crisp sound, the Glimmering Battle Axe chopped down on Ryan Knight’s shoulder, sending him flying. The 234 points of damage were more than enough to kill him a second time!

In an instant, I’d taken out two gray-named players, but my evil value didn’t increase at all. After dying, Ryan Knight dropped a few small potions, which I picked up and tossed into my bag. Looks like he came to deliver supplies to me!

As for Logan Knight, she was stunned, standing there for a long moment before finally saying, “S-sorry…”

She was probably afraid I’d send her back to the city as well!

I couldn’t help but smile and said, “Go level up. Kill more monsters and PK less—that’s the fastest way to level up!”

Logan Knight nodded gently and said, “I can’t win,” before turning to leave.
