Silver Lion Wilder of the Templar Order, the Holy Mechanism's classic Bronze Saints and Battle Nuns, the Demon Hunter Association's Silver Faction and Beast Hunters... Even the notoriously secretive London Tower and Holy Cross Association had each sent their own Wizards and Faith Knights.
The sharp-eyed Baron even saw the Judge who had tried him at the Prole Court. The Judge was now dressed as an English aristocrat, seated in a central position among the Law Enforcers, and clearly held a great deal of prestige.
'Looks like the Law Enforcement Organizations have spared no expense this time. They're determined to bring Carmen to justice—and execute her on the spot,' Baron thought.
The crimson-haired Faith Knight seemed to notice Baron's gaze and looked over in his direction from afar.
"Knight Commander, have you taken a liking to the legitimate daughter of Lancelot's Family? In my opinion, she's not an easy person to get along with. You'd better tread carefully," Bronze Saint Elvin said suddenly.
The crimson-haired Jiang Ge shook his head. "I just found that Attendant's combat techniques interesting. I didn't expect Lancelot's Family to have such reserves of strength. They are truly worthy of being a Knight Clan."
"The Lancelot Clan founded the Lion Eye Knight Order, after all. And one of their ancestors was a true Gold. It's perfectly normal for them to have an Attendant with such combat memories."
Elvin sighed. "Speaking of which, I just spotted an incredibly graceful and beautiful young wife... but unfortunately, when I asked around, it turned out she's the legitimate daughter of the Hestia Family..."
"Barbara Hestia. Her beauty is legendary in the Inner Side. Her husband, Baron Frederick, was imprisoned in London Thirteen Prison for making contact with the Dragon Witch. The order came from Golden Wizard Newton of the London Tower, so not even the Hestia Family or Frederick's own Golden Clan could use their connections to get him out.
By now, he's been locked up for almost six years. If Saint Elvin is truly interested, this is the perfect opportunity to make your move."
The voice was as cold as ice. It belonged to an incomparably handsome young man: Andy, the Demon Hunter Association's rising star, the Dragon Demon Hunter.
"I thought Mr. Andy wouldn't attend this auction. After all, I didn't see you at the Beowulf Family's Dragon Hunting Ceremony," Elvin said with a smile.
"I have already achieved Unity of Spirit and Body, and my total Spiritual Power is equivalent to a Pseudo-Silver. The Dragon Spear Baptism is of little use to me anymore. Furthermore, I believed the Dragon Species in the Dracul Mountain Range were Third Generation Species at most, so I canceled my trip."
Andy stated calmly, "If I had known that besides a Subspecies, there was also a Dragon Knight and his Flying Dragon in those mountains, I would have participated long ago."
The implication was that even Third Generation Species, whether at the peak of the Bronze Tier or even at the Silver Tier, were no longer worthy of his notice.
Jiang Ge asked, "I heard you made a trip to the Dracul Mountain Range the day before yesterday. Were you gathering materials for your Silver Branding?"
"I've already gathered them," Andy said calmly. "That Flying Dragon Subspecies, the Gale Dragon... I plan to use it as the material for the next stage of my Beastification."
His expression was utterly nonchalant, as if he were discussing a triviality. However, the arrogance in his words sent a secret chill through the guests who were surreptitiously watching him.
A Flying Dragon Subspecies's power corresponds to a stage within the Silver Tier, depending on its age. According to the Dragon Descendant Scholars present at the scene, that Gale Dragon was only one or two thousand years old. Even so, it was powerful enough to rival a Silver Demon Hunter who had been at the Silver Tier for two or three years.
Although the Inner Side's Tiers for each profession weren't as detailed as the "early-stage, mid-stage, late-stage, Great Perfection, and Extreme" found in the novels from Baron's previous life, one could still roughly gauge the quality and quantity of someone's Spiritual Power through their Spiritual Pressure.
To think that Andy, the Dragon Demon Hunter, was now capable of killing foes above his own tier. Although he had paid a terrible price, it was an indisputable fact that he, a Bronze Tier, had killed a Silver Tier opponent.
With his talent, his promotion to the Silver Tier was practically a certainty. If memory served, this Dragon Demon Hunter was only thirty-two or thirty-three. A Silver Tier that young was someone few in the entire Inner Side could hope to match.
"Then let us be the first to congratulate you on your promotion to Silver, Mr. Andy," said Elvin and Jiang Ge.
Andy nodded, his gaze sweeping across the hall as if searching for something. A moment later, he shook his head, bid farewell to the group, and a dedicated nurse wheeled him away. He was confined to a wheelchair, his body wrapped in bandages covered with Alchemy Runes, and was pushed down to his family's designated seats.
This was the grievous price he had paid. It was said that there was barely a single unbroken bone left in his body. If it weren't for the tough constitution of a Beast Hunter, he would likely be little more than a sack of skin in that wheelchair.
This was also further proof that Silver Tiers were not to be trifled with.
Jiang Ge smiled. "So, Saint Elvin, are you going to give it a try? After all, I hear you have a special liking for her type."
Lately, aside from the uproar surrounding Dragon Knight Baron Constantin, the Inner Side's newspapers had also been publishing some of the romantic exploits of the Spaniard right in front of them.
The gist of it was that a Law Enforcer from the Holy Mechanism named Elvin loved to seduce married women.
Elvin glanced at the two Battle Nuns behind him, then at the Hestia Family's entourage, and said thoughtfully, "Too many people. I can't beat them, and I can't outrun them."
......
"Barbara… why did you stop me? This whole thing started because Elder Pence was in the wrong… His actions have undoubtedly brought shame upon the Hestia Family!"
