Charm Points Maxed: My Enemies Became My Underlings

Chapter 21: Returning To Their Country

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The two of them began to fight.

It was unclear whether it was due to the collision of their spells or something else, but when the two of them exchanged blows, the surrounding soldiers were pushed back a considerable distance.

Morris’ expression became even more solemn. He knew that his ex-general was very strong, much stronger than these small fries. However, Morris did not expect that the general’s power could actually fluctuate to such an extent.

It was not an exaggeration to say that this one-on-one fight was like a hundred men clashing at once.

And Lei Yuan was actually able to withstand such a move! This was probably going to be a fierce battle.

“Gosh, he’s that strong? Looks like I was still underestimating him.”

“C-Can he still win? Should we do something?”

“But Warrior Lei Yuan has already said that we can’t help, otherwise it would not be honorable. Let’s wait and see first. If the general really intends to take his life… I absolutely won’t allow it!”

At this point, Lei Yuan was also forced back a considerable distance by the general’s spells.

His expression immediately became serious. ‘This person is still so powerful!’

Lei Yuan had initially thought that he would be able to take him down after a few rounds.

The system did not expect this, either. Today, it had also followed the overall situation and neglected to check the general’s cultivation level.

It seemed that it had been hanging around the host for too long, and its functions had all declined.

“Don’t be anxious. No matter how powerful a person is, they still have flaws.”

That was what Lei Yuan had in mind. But he was afraid that he would not have time to find the general’s weakness before he was killed.

“How about you tell me something useful instead, like how I can improve my cultivation level quickly? If I don’t have enough Evolution Points, can I pay you on credit first?”

There should be some kind of medicine that could increase one’s cultivation in a short period of time.

However, the system stated that it did not have a credit system.

“No way, you don’t even have a credit system? Your system is too outdated!”

Lei Yuan felt helpless and could only continue to evade for the moment.

“Isn’t it normal that I don’t have a credit system? I’m not a bank.” The system pondered. “If you can’t beat him, just stall for a little longer. There’s always a way.”

If Lei Yuan could keep this up, the general’s flaws would eventually reveal themselves.

Lei Yuan understood what the system meant, but that was assuming that he could actually last that long.

At this rate, he really could not hold out much longer.

“Looks like you’re not really that strong! I don’t know why my soldiers are willing to submit to you! You don’t have any charm!”

The more the general thought about it, the more unconvinced he became. He could not wait to kill Lei Yuan at once.

However, although Lei Yuan did not have much attack power, he was still quite good at dodging. None of the general’s attacks had truly hit him.

‘What’s so good about this guy? For someone as strong as I am, why can’t I beat him?!’

“I do have Charm, but is that really my fault?” Lei Yuan said casually.

The system was speechless.

‘Isn’t he just trying to provoke the general? What is Lei Yuan doing all of a sudden? Does he want to die?’

No one knew Lei Yuan’s true thoughts except himself.

Lei Yuan was indeed trying to provoke the general. It was easier for people to reveal their flaws when they were angry.

After a moment of hesitation, Lei Yuan quickly found the opponent’s weakness.

He decided to take a risk and defeat his opponent immediately.

Thus, while the general was attacking, Lei Yuan rushed forward and attacked his weak point.

The general did not notice anything unusual at first, he thought that he was about to win and attacked with all his might.

However, there were always surprises. Just as the two sides were about to collide, Lei Yuan was suddenly pulled back by a strong force and retreated to a safe place.

Lei Yuan gave a yelp in surprise.

The ones who had pulled him to safety were the soldiers, including the former enemy soldiers.

“General, please don’t fight with Warrior Lei Yuan anymore! We don’t want to be enemies with you!”

“Yes, General! On account of the fact that we have been comrades before, please stop fighting. We don’t want to go against you.”

“Why waste your time talking to him? You’re all on our side now, so he definitely considers you enemies.”

The soldiers argued for a while, but they were all in agreement to help Lei Yuan.

Before Lei Yuan could react, the remaining soldiers forcefully carried him away.

Lei Yuan was once again dumbfounded.

Of course, apart from some soldiers, Eisen and Lotti were also following him.

“What are you doing? I almost won just now!”

‘Wouldn’t it be better to teach this arrogant general a lesson?’

Eisen quickly waved his hand. “Warrior Lei Yuan, we understand what you mean. But you don’t have to stall anymore, you’re safe now.”

‘Who’s stalling now?!’ Lei Yuan felt so angry that he did not know what to say.

After they left, the general did not do anything to the soldiers… Because many of them were his subordinates.

What kind of godly charm did Lei Yuan have to be able to make the others submit to him? Even he himself had almost… The general wanted to understand.

…

Finally, when the soldiers were certain that they were safe, they put Lei Yuan down.

Lei Yuan did not wish to entertain the idea of going back to challenge the general again. Their escape had not been easy.

“Alright, let’s wait for the others for a while longer before we return to our country.”

They had already rescued the ambassador, so there was nothing else for them to do after that.

“How did you do it?” Eisen asked. “How could the enemy soldiers also submit to you at the drop of a hat?”

It had happened more than once, and Eisen could not help but ask why.

Lei Yuan naturally would not reveal everything, especially to someone who once held a grudge against him.

“It’s just my personal Charm. When your Charm is high enough, you’ll be able to do it, too,” Lei Yuan said casually.

Eisen listened with some degree of understanding. Charm was too subjective! He would rather believe that Lei Yuan made everyone submit to him through his strength.

“I understand.” The knight seemed a little embarrassed, but he still said, “I was wrong in the past, but from today onwards, I won’t pick on you anymore. After returning to the country, we will protect the country for Her Majesty’s sake. “It could be considered that he had made a one-sided reconciliation.

However, Lei Yuan just chuckled. No one knew what he meant. “Make sure you keep your word.”

He really did not care if they worked together or not. After all, who knew how long he would stay in this country?

On the way back to the Aifell Empire, all the enemy soldiers renewed their vows of loyalty to Lei Yuan. They seemed to be worried about what would happen to them after they entered the Aifell Empire with this group. They were especially attentive to Lei Yuan and served him very well.

Lei Yuan was also happy to enjoy such care, and Lotti’s thoughts gradually changed.

Initially, she only had a strong desire to own Lei Yuan as though he was a pawn, but now… She was having other thoughts.

Lotti wanted to have this man and make his mind and body completely hers!

Lotti asked awkwardly, “I say, Lei Yuan, what are your plans after returning to the Aifell Empire? I don’t think the country treats you well. Why don’t you…”
