Chapter 503: Chapter 221 Dark Knight Wayne_2

Wayne, coveting the luck-adjusting buff of the Ancient Silver Coin, said, "Let’s try it out, you’re so lucky, and there happens to be a Death Knight right here."

Austin withdrew his hand, clutched the Ancient Silver Coin tightly, and refused Wayne’s absurd suggestion. If the Ancient Silver Coin were to change in any way during contact with the Death Knight, Austin knew his pleasure would be immense.

"Death and darkness do not harmonize, Grew is very eager to oppress a Dark Knight. True Dark Knights can’t rise to power, so the forces of darkness on God-chosen Continent are always weaker than death, and because of the deal, I have to follow Grew’s orders..."

Austin looked at Wayne, "The order to eradicate the Naturalism Church didn’t come from the Dark Goddess but from Grew. In other words, Hefei’s enemy has always been you, the Death Knight."

Austin shifted the blame, but Wayne wasn’t having it, and with a cold laugh, he said, "Who knows, you go tell the teacher and see if she believes you."

Austin’s face darkened; he could never tell her. Ever since Hefei returned, he never transformed into the Dark Knight again.

Well, there was one time, but that was out of concern for his wife’s safety.

A beautiful wife meeting with a Death Knight in the graveyard late at night—if the Death Knight went crazy, someone had to stand up and play the hero.

Thus, the Dark Knight made his appearance that night, asserting his dominance over Lundan, warning the Death Knight not to overstep his bounds.

After that, with the same thought process as Hefei, he started investigating in secret, annoying both Knights at the same time, he almost scared Austin’s soul away.

On his way there, he realized someone was impersonating Hefei, seeking to use another’s hand to kill. With lackluster interest, he turned and left.

Now upon reflection, even if Hefei that night was an imposter, even if she were real, being protected by two great Knights made her too safe.

It was just an ugly scene, with both Knights unaware of each other’s identities, and most likely they would fight to the death. Regardless of who had the last laugh, neither would have the face to meet Hefei afterward.

Austin: Madam, I killed your student.

Wayne: Teacher, I killed your husband.

And adding Veronica to the mix, this family would truly fall apart.

"That’s my situation, now it’s your turn, why did you become a Death Knight?" Austin said impatiently.

Megan also focused her attention on Wayne. Having followed Austin for many years, she knew him inside and out. There were virtually no secrets Austin could keep from her.

Like the time Austin first transformed into a Dark Knight, to hide his identity, he resumed his playboy ways, indulging in beauty every day and not even seeing his daughter—all orchestrated by her behind the scenes, hypnotizing the ladies to get it over with, and reshaping the image of a playboy living beneath the belt.

On the contrary, knowledge about the next social rubbish was scarce.

His character, very familiar, the same old thing seen daily.

"My story is a long one; it all started on the 13th of March last year, that night when Veronica came to my Detective Agency, and we fell in love at first sight..." Wayne reminisced, that was where the dream began.

"..." x2

Megan hesitated slightly. As far as she knew, Austin and Hefei did not fall in love at first sight.

At first sight, Hefei didn’t care for the playboy at all, even despised him; Austin shamelessly chased after her persistently, and with utter disregard for embarrassment, lured Hefei back home.

Veronica was once Hefei, Wayne was once Austin; hence, Wayne was lying—it wasn’t love at first sight, but rather society’s rubbish lusting after the body of the Dragon Blood Girl.

Megan nodded repeatedly, case closed, and honoring history was just like this.

Austin rolled his eyes, not so politely saying, "My daughter isn’t blind, she would never fancy you. More like you tricked her, that’s more likely."

You may not believe it, but I tricked her with just a diary!

Wayne snorted coldly, "Say what you will, but Veronica kissed me, just two days ago, and you know her—kissing is as good as getting married and having children."

Austin: (emoji with wide open eyes)

"What’s the matter, want to lose your temper? Are you going to listen to my story or not?"

Wayne chuckled twice. He wasn’t afraid of Austin before, and he’s even less worried now—a Death Knight and a Dark Knight, neither were any good, who was he to fear!

Austin, quite angered, played roughly with the Ancient Silver Coin.

"It’s good that you know your place. Then I’ll continue. The Goddess didn’t choose me, I stole Shadowmare."

Wayne glanced at Austin, determined to outdo him, "Paris had a Death Knight, to be precise, a headless infantryman, who had his head taken by the Devil Alliance and roamed uncontrollably, so as not to make grave errors, he sent his warhorse and sword to Lundan..."

"I just happened to pass by, found Shadowmare quite appealing and fitting my aura, so I pulled out the sword, and thus became a Death Knight."

Wayne mocked, "Unlike you, with no talent, forcibly seizing Twilight Deadlock, clinging desperately to become a Dark Knight, my magic talent is so great, Shadowmare desperately licked my boots, couldn’t shake him off, I reluctantly became a Death Knight out of pity."

"Additionally, unlike some trash, I’m not cursed, I can transform or revert at will, painlessly."

Austin was utterly disgusted, and fired back sarcastically, "Anyone can boast, you’re a Death Knight, so of course you can say whatever you want."

"If you don’t believe it, bring out Twilight Deadlock, and let’s make a bet, I’ll transform into a Dark Knight right here, right now, for you to see."

"Fine, you’re on!"

Austin spoke promptly, fearing that if he hesitated, Wayne might change his mind.

It was somewhat embarrassing to admit, but holding the Lucky Silver Coin, gambling with him was like asking for humiliation.
