Enemies Are All Nourishment for My Fungi-Chapter 303 - : Straight to Dewell Knight’s Domain
Chapter 303 -303: Straight to Dewell Knight’s Domain
“This Knight’s Domain, has it always been these two towns for generations?”
“It’s hard to say, but from my great grandfather’s time to now, it has always been these two towns. I heard that the Knight’s Domain next door has only one village.”
“You need military achievements to have a Knight’s Domain, but what if the Knight dies?”
“If the Knight has a son, he inherits the family business; if not, they appoint a new Old Knight.”
“Your Old Knight has passed it down so many generations, were they very good at fighting?”
“I’m not sure, I just know they had a lot of male heirs, so many that those who were fit would go to the battlefield to snatch new territories, and those who weren’t would stay home to have sons and inherit the family business.”
“When the Knight goes out to fight, do you have to go?”
“Yes, the males in the domain are by default the personal soldiers of the Old Knight. Every year, children of age are sent for them to pick, those chosen are trained, and if they earn military honors, their families get bonuses and can lead a better life.”
“How do I get to that town?”
“What do you want to do?” asked the Mayor, his face showing loyalty, “You’ve asked me so much, now it’s my turn to ask you, who are you?”
“Someone who fights with you.”
The Mayor’s face changed drastically, and he also thought of something.
“The incidents at Military Fortress and Beigen Village, were you responsible for those?”
“Yes, I did it, I’m here to seek revenge.”
The loyal Mayor couldn’t muster any loyalty, his face showing despair.
The townspeople and farmers around were relatively calm, having learned from the villagers of Beigen Village about the coming vengeance half a month earlier; they felt relaxed, without the heaviness of imminent disaster.
They didn’t care about the revenge; fighting or not was decided by the lords above. Today you attack me, tomorrow I attack you, the landowner changes but they always had to do the work, there was no massacre involved.
But the merchants were not having any of it; they came only to do business and hadn’t expected that they might not return home this time. They waved their arms, hoping the Avenger would glance their way and listen to them.
“No, no, no, don’t kill us, the fighting has nothing to do with us, it’s those lords above who are responsible.”
“Alright, I’ll go to your lords, tell me, where is that town?”
“Just follow this road down, when you reach a fork in the road, take the left one.”
Ye Nai nodded, pulled out her motorcycle and helmet, and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, the townsfolk gasped and dared not speak loudly, but they had to call out to her.
“My lord, please don’t leave yet; first remove the witchcraft from us?”
“Lie down, it will be removed in a moment.”
Ye Nai started her motorcycle and left without expression, simultaneously noting the new term in her mind; on Blue Star, they called this special energy superpower, but in Otherworld, it was witchcraft?
Shortly after she left, the villagers of Beigen who came to watch the commotion arrived, seeing that everyone in the market was sitting on the ground weakly, the other townspeople and villagers who hadn’t been harmed were frantically circling them, and the Beigen villagers laughed loudly, cursing that they deserved it.
On the bumpy country road, Ye Nai rode for two hours, passing several small paths until she finally saw the fork mentioned by the mayor and turned into the left one.
Then it was another two or three hours of travel, terrifying countless villagers along the way, before she finally reached Dewell Town.
The town also had only one cobblestone main road, and at the speed of a motorcycle, it took only ten minutes to ride from one end to the other.
The Knight’s Family wasn’t in town.
Ye Nai stopped the bike, took out her coin pouch, pulled out a copper coin, and asked a bearded man, learning that the Knight’s Family was outside town, in an estate.
She rode the motorcycle away, and only then did the townspeople, whose legs had gone weak from fright, gather together to discuss who that person might be.
However, Dewell Town was named after Knight Dewell, and the local townspeople, who were well-informed by daily exposure, quickly recalled the incident at the Military Fortress half a month ago.
“That person was short, could that be the enemy they talked about in Luoke Town?”
“Whom did that person ask for directions? Find them and ask?”
“That person has already run off. It cost a copper coin just to give directions, and I watched him run towards the pub.”
“Ah, there’s no way to find out now.”
“The enemy is small but has a big courage, asking directions from a bearded man. If he had asked a child for directions, that copper coin could have bought a drink, and we could have all had a sip.”

“What are you waiting for? The Mayor was rushing to the manor, why don’t we follow and see how the Old Knight chops him with a single blow.”
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
The townspeople responded enthusiastically, with everyone who was free, regardless of age or sex, following right behind the Mayor’s cart and jogging along.
Not far from the town, Ye Nai had already reached the large iron gate of the manor on the outskirts of the town.
The big iron gate was open, and an old gatekeeper was chopping wood behind the house.
Ye Nai stopped the bike and was about to ask the old gatekeeper if this was the Knight’s house when she saw the old man raise the axe over his head with both hands and shout as he charged towards her.
The next second, the old man’s knees buckled, and he fell face-first into the dirt, his axe flying out of his hands.
With his bottom in the air, even a sneeze from the old man was silent.
After confirming there were no dangers around, Ye Nai then got off the bike and walked over, knelt in front of the old man, lifted the visor, and released his constricted vocal cords.
“Is this the Knight’s house?”
“Who, who are you?”
“Enemy.”
The old man immediately thought of the news from Luoke Town more than ten days ago and clamped his mouth shut, refusing to answer.
Ye Nai took his silence as an agreement, turned around, and sped on the motorcycle through the gate.
The old man shouted loudly, but the place was too open, and around the Knight’s large mansion, there were simply no idle people wandering around.
As she rode through the big iron gate, the road to the mansion was better maintained, the pale road surfaced with finely crushed stone material, slightly reflective, very friendly to the wheels, providing a smooth riding experience.
The exterior of the house was also clean and neat, not even the smells of livestock could be detected.
She stopped the bike at the entrance of the mansion,where a young male servant stood. On seeing her, he screamed as if he had seen a ghost and moved to close the door.
However, just as his hands touched the doorknob, he collapsed limply to the ground.
He wasn’t dead; it was just to keep him out of the way.
Ye Nai put away her bike and helmet, stepped over the immobile male servant, and entered the hallway.
Screams came from various rooms around her, along with the sound of things crashing down. Male and female servants trembled at the doorways of different rooms, not daring to flee. At this moment, they didn’t know whether defying the servant’s rules was worse or facing this uninvited guest was more fatal.
Ye Nai didn’t trouble the working class and didn’t want them in the way either; thus, like the male servant at the door, they all collapsed softly to the floor, sleeping.
The hallway faced the main staircase, to the left side a room door revealed a spacious and bright living room. Ye Nai walked past the maid on the floor and into it, choosing a single sofa facing the room door to sit down.
