Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

They had seen many cursed swordsmen and mages, but they had never encountered an entity as eerily elusive in attack as a ranger.

Even the halfling guard captain, who had just been fighting desperately and thought that close quarters combat was these fearsome warriors’ weakness, realized upon taking serious injuries and breaking through to their side... that they were even more terrifying up close.

As their morale ebbed and flowed, their emotions began to crumble, and someone painfully asked their leader,

"Captain, do we continue to fight? People are really dying! Let’s retreat!"

"Retreat? Where can we retreat to?"

The halfling captain hung his head in shame, but after a moment, he raised it again and said,

"I’ll approach them and surrender. You all prepare to escape. If they intend to kill me and won’t accept the surrender, I will do my best to entangle them. At that time, lads... run for it!"

In fact, such situations were not unique to the rangers; the individuals participating in the envoy team were either middle-tier or higher officials from the Yibel Federation or rising stars of the federation.

The new talents of the Yibel Federation were watching their seniors fight from the rear, meaning none of the people currently in battle were weak.

The halflings attempting to flee from the Lord Mansion noticed in terror that even the excavated trench moat outside had been frozen into a long ice river by the mages casting their spells, with summoned water elements patrolling atop it.

Clearly, they would be discovered by other mages before they could manage a breakout.

Soon, the last bastion of resistance was dissolved, and Muxue Castle’s final defense fell.

Seeing this, the young candidate knights and mage apprentices watching from the outer circle sighed with relief and then burst into cheers!

The victory hymn was simpler than they had imagined.

Yet they couldn’t help but turn their gaze towards the handsome young man known as Kael.

The power he wielded, combined with his astonishing cavalry skills and his already renowned prestige in mage theory circles...

Was this person really the same age as them?

Was he not some ancient monster reborn?

Although much of the battlefield had already been weakened to a tipping point by many of their seniors, such abilities might mean they should respectfully address this Duke candidate as "Sir."

If they were on his opposing side...

The group of youngsters shivered subconsciously.

"Pah! What nonsense!"

Impossible, utterly impossible, he is our trusted and admired ally!

The young people swiftly suppressed the minor thoughts in their hearts.

After all, the three young maidens following Kael had already attracted the attention of many young men.

During their time on the Flying Boat, they had sparred with Elanna and Lily, well aware that these two were the pride of their age.

Even in Kael’s modern society, for girls, a good education and appearance were powerful assets in the marriage market.

If one added a pleasant personality and self-respect, to put it bluntly, these were girls that most ordinary people would not dare pursue... not to mention worrying about ’not being able to keep their women,’ which alone could deter many.

As for why they weren’t fixated on Hassaka...

Please, she was someone else’s wolf maid; they could do as they please, and these youngsters had no right to be nosy.

But now, they even lost any extra thoughts about the two girls. @@novelbin@@

Was it just because their status was a little higher, their honors a bit more, their looks a tad nicer, their personal abilities slightly stronger, and their subordinates a little more terrifying?

They couldn’t possibly shrink back just because of that, could they?

Right, we’ve shrunken back, so what are you going to do about it?

Elanna turned her head to look at Kael, who stood calmly there, staring at the wooden Lord Mansion, seemingly deep in thought.

His handsome features and the Magic Radiance not yet dissipated from his body, along with the slowly fading light particles, gave him an air of the mystique and power unique to mages, causing her to inadvertently bite her lower lip, her eyes filled with longing and bewilderment intensifying.

Lily felt somewhat dejected, as whenever she felt she had gotten a little closer to Kael, he would always demonstrate with his actions that her achievements were insignificant.

As for Hassaka...

"My young master is surely the best!"

The wolf maid never hesitated to voice her emotions, loudly proclaiming her support and affection for Kael.

Old White following beside Kael also wore a face of surprise and joy.

He was jubilant because Lancaster’s foundation had grown much stronger. His young master and the apprentices he had brought along had all significantly increased in strength, especially Young Master Kael!

The surprise stemmed from the fact that Higher was now achieving such resplendent success; the rangers’ dominion was approaching that of the top-tier legions. The only things missing were team coordination and corp-level striking capabilities... and crucially, the numbers.
