Big Capitalist
Chapter 223 The turning point of fate
Ace was calling out Ed's name anxiously. Ed quickly climbed over the wall and ran over. Ace quickly hugged him and asked nervously, "Why did you run to the other side of the wall? That's the magic academy established by the lord! Did you offend anyone?"
Ed took a breath and shook his head, "No, I was just checking it out."
Hearing this, Ace finally breathed a sigh of relief and told Ed: "The wild boar has been sold. The noble lord accepted it and gave us some money. Hurry, we have to go back quickly."
However, they didn't know that after Ace left, the steward of the lord's front yard had already set his sights on them. The money for the wild boar and the appearance of the two children were enough for them to take the risk and kidnap them, and then sell them for a large sum of gold coins.
Just as Ace and Ed were on their way home, they were blocked by people hired by the front yard manager.
"Boss, these are the two little guys, right?"
"Yes, they have several gold coins in their hands. I saw it with my own eyes!"
"Who are you!" Ace's face changed instantly, and his hand slowly placed on the dagger at his waist.
Brother Ed stood behind Ace in fear. He looked at these ferocious guys and his heart was pounding with fear.
"Who are we? Don't be afraid, brother will take you to a good place." The leader stretched out his hand and tried to grab Ace.
At this moment, Ace immediately drew out his short knife and slashed it in front of him.
A cold light flashed, and the leader didn't expect that this kid would dare to resist with a knife. He didn't pay attention and his hand was cut with a huge gash, and blood flowed out of the wound.
"Fuck! Damn it! You actually dared to resist! Brothers, come on, beat you up first!"
The hooligans hired by the front yard housekeeper rushed forward and started kicking Ace and Ed. They were only ten-year-old children. No matter how mature Ace was, he was no match for these adults. In order to protect his younger brother, he could only passively take the beating.
"What are you doing!"
At this moment, a cold voice sounded. A girl in a gorgeous dress slowly walked over. Her golden hair shone like the sun, her face was as delicate as a sculpture, and her deep blue eyes revealed a hint of disdain and arrogance.
She was the lord's daughter, Angelica Rudius. The hooligans naturally knew her identity and did not dare to offend her easily.
Ace and Ed thought they had met a kind person and were about to breathe a sigh of relief, but they found that Angelica was just standing there watching coldly with no intention of taking any action, which made them feel disappointed and desperate.
They didn't know that this beautiful girl liked to bully people on a daily basis. Skipping classes and bullying had become her daily routine. No one in the city dared to mess with her. She had already become the "Miss" in the city.
Angelica looked at Ace and Ed. She didn't expect that these two boys who were about her age were good-looking. So she said, "They are handsome. Maybe they would be good if we bought them back as slaves?"
When Ace and Ed heard the word "slave", they immediately panicked. Angelica rolled her eyes and raised a sly smile: "However, if you want to be my slave, I have to see if there are any flaws in you."
The hooligans thought that the young lady was going to strip them naked, and they burst into laughter. However, Angelica just wanted to take a closer look at their faces, and when she heard the hooligans' teasing, she quickly covered her blushing cheeks and took a step back.
She knew that the group of people had misunderstood, but she did not explain. A glimmer of viciousness flashed in Ace's eyes, and he secretly memorized the girl's face. He stood up, put his hands on his waist, and wanted to draw his knife, but found that the short knife had fallen out in the chaos just now.
Ed didn't understand why they had to suffer this, and his heart was filled with fear. Under the pressure of this fear, his spiritual sea began to release, the world slowly became slow in front of him, and his eyes saw things that he couldn't see normally, that was the elements!
He suddenly remembered the old man's teachings just now, and he stretched out his hand involuntarily, arranging the elements in the way he imagined. There was no magic spell, no wand needed, only his magic power, and the magic was completed.
The light flashed, and golden arrows condensed in front of Ed. The gangsters' eyes showed fear and astonishment. Angelica said in shock: "Impossible! How can you, a civilian, use magic!" She was panicked and didn't know how to respond.
Ed looked at the arrows floating in front of him and felt uneasy. Although he had released magic, he didn't know how to use it. Just as he was about to reach out to touch the light arrow, the arrow seemed to have received an order and suddenly shot out, piercing the arms and thighs of the two gangsters, causing screams.
At the same time, when Ed saw the wounds on the thugs' bodies and their screams as they struggled on the ground, his head seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer and he suddenly fainted to the ground.
Ace called out Ed's name and looked at him worriedly. Angelica realized that things were getting serious and immediately cast wind magic to quickly flee the scene. The thugs saw that Ed was unconscious and only Ace was left. Looking at the wounds on their brothers' bodies, they surrounded them in anger and began to beat Ace violently.
Ace was naturally no match for this group of thugs. In order to protect Ed, he tried his best to lie on Ed's body and tried to block the attack.
At this time, it suddenly started to rain heavily, and the gangsters continued to beat Ace and Ed. At this moment, someone shouted, "The patrol is coming!" The gangsters panicked and fled the scene. However, one of them was smart enough to pluck Ace's clothes and took away the only two gold coins.
After the gangsters left, Angelica Rudeus walked out of the alley. She was the one who made the shout. She looked at the unconscious Ed and the dying Ace with a look of horror on her face.
Although she enjoyed bullying others by taking advantage of her status, she had never hurt anyone's life. Just when she didn't know what to do, she suddenly felt sleepy and fell backwards involuntarily.
At this moment, a pair of hands caught her steadily, and a deep voice sounded: "I didn't expect that I could gain such a reward from taking a walk."
A handsome young man in gorgeous clothes stood in front of her, followed by a middle-aged man holding an umbrella. He looked at the unconscious Angelica Rudeus and smiled playfully: "Send Miss Angelica back to the old Duke's house, and take the two of them with me."
"Yes, Your Highness." The middle-aged man holding an umbrella behind him waved his hand, and two knights suddenly appeared behind him, took Angelica and left the scene.
