Silva didn't even use any weapons, all he did was let his aura loose. The man exploded, slamming into all the knights and throwing them in all directions.
The captain looked at this in shock, but the refusal in his head did not allow him to make the wise decision. He drew his sword.
"You bastard, I'll show you your place!" he roared, but after taking one step towards Silva, he fell to the ground and trembled.
The bloodlust that Silva released broke the man down, forcefully clearing his head, and the knight finally understood that he stood before his death.
Still, Silva had no plans to kill. He had taken over a hundred lives today, it was already too much; adding more would be going overboard.
Aside from that, killing the Duke's knights would not end well, no matter how weak they were.
"What's going on here?" A knight in black armor came from the forest, Raze was also with him.
When Raze saw Silva, he could already tell what had happened here. Raze bent over and whispered into the knight's ear.
The knight's face changed to shock and then quickly back to normal. He walked to Silva and bowed his head.
"I am deeply sorry about what the acting captain did. We were informed that there was a B-ranked adventurer inside the labyrinth, but we didn't know what you looked like.
I'm sure this idiot jumped to the conclusion that you were lying and attacked you. I'll make sure to punish him," the knight said.
"He was being controlled, a strange energy was clouding his mind, but it's gone now," Silva said.
"Still, there is no excuse. A knight allowed himself to be controlled, that is already an act worthy of death," the knight said.
'It's not like he had any choice, the person that clouded his mind was far stronger than him.' Silva thought. He glanced over to where he had seen the cloaked man, but the man was long gone.
"All of you, get up and head back to Ribest. Await your punishment there," the knight said. The knights groaned in pain and stood up, helping their vice-captain, who was acting captain. He could barely stand on his own.
The knight in black looked at all of them and wondered.
'This child took out all of them, and it doesn't look like he had any issue doing it. It doesn't even seem like he fought. How is that possible?'
"That's because he doesn't want to hurt your feelings. I'm not as kind as he is," Rock said.
"It's okay, Rock, it doesn't really bother me," Silva said.
Silva looked at Tera and nodded in greeting to her, and she nodded back.
"So, what's the cause of the celebration?" Silva asked.
"Two things really," Rock said. "First, Quin is now a B-ranked adventurer, and second, Tera is as well.
And with two B-ranked adventurers, we took the test for the B-ranked party, and we passed," Rock explained.
"That's awesome, you guys are really moving up fast," Silva said.
"Hearing that come from you sounds like sarcasm," Roy pointed out.
"No, I'm serious," Silva said.
"We know you are, but then again, your speed is like ten times our speed, so you understand," Roy said.
Silva just smiled and then looked at Quin.
"Congratulations, bro," Silva said.
"Thanks," Quin replied.
"Now we're in the same rank again," Silva said.
"You're only there because you don't want to go up," Quin said with a small laugh.
Silva gave a nervous laugh. What his brother said was actually true; he didn't really want to go up, well, not yet.
"So, tell us about the labyrinth. We heard that you went in to chase after those people," Quin asked.
"Yeah, but I stopped at the tenth floor and came back after not seeing them. A team may be set up for a full exploration to check things out," Silva said.
