Chapter 261 Trembling Under the Demonic Pressure
They were hardly any stronger than the defeated Sky Knight.
Peter glanced at everyone and said, "It seems you have no objections. From today onwards, I am the Grand Master of the Knights of Glory."
The Sky Knights all knelt on the ground and swore allegiance to Peter.
Even the Sky Knight who had been defeated by Peter knelt down before him with heartfelt admiration and swore allegiance.
Peter's sense of accomplishment reached its peak.
But just then, a brilliant flash of light streaked across the sky.
A figure, its feet moving with the flight of a bird's wings, arrived above Peter and the other Sky Knights.
Peter looked up, a hint of panic flashing in his eyes.
"The Wizard of Proust..."
The wizard in the air slowly landed.
Standing in the middle of the crowd, he said calmly, "Have you prepared the magic stones I requested?"
The appearance of Prus caused the knights to change their expressions.
Admittedly, Leo is a very powerful wizard, but isn't this Prus also a powerful wizard?
For a moment, the Sky Knights began to weigh Leo and Prous in their minds.
Peter stepped forward with lightning speed and said respectfully, "Greetings, Wizard Prouss. The magic stone for you is ready."
"Okay, bring it here."
Peter sent a Sky Knight to retrieve the magic stone.
Soon, a bag of magic stones was placed in front of Prus.
Prus examined the magic stones, a hint of fervor flashing in his eyes. He said, "Well, that's all the magic stones for this month. Don't forget about next month's."
"Yes, Wizard Proust."
Peter breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Proust was about to leave.
There was actually no conflict between them and Prussia.
The contract signed with Prus was to exchange magic stones for ownership of the Shadowfish.
Now that Leo has improved the secret method for them to advance to Sky Knights, they no longer need Shadow Fish.
The effectiveness of these magic stones also diminishes as a result.
After all, once they have gained significant strength, they naturally won't need to spend magic stones to hire wizard apprentices to help hunt sea monsters.
If Prus wants the magic stone, then give it to him.
Anyway, Leo never said he needed their magic stones.
Peter did not consider this a betrayal of Leo.
Prus took the magic stone and prepared to leave.
But at that moment, a sky knight stepped over the crowd, knelt before the wizard Prus, and cried out, "Wizard Prus, please save us!"
Peter's expression changed slightly.
Prus frowned and said, "Save you? I'm not your subordinate, and your lives are none of my concern. I'm just here to collect the magic stone stipulated in the contract."
The Sky Knight quickly said, "Wizard Prouss, actually, a wizard came these past few days. He wanted to steal our Shadowfish. He also imprisoned Commander Pengko. This might affect your subsequent collection of magic stones."
Upon hearing this, Prus frowned.
"Take me to see this wizard... Also, release Penco. I had a good working relationship with him before, and since he's still alive, let him continue to work with me."
"Yes, Wizard of Prouss."
The Sky Knight then turned to Peter and said, "Peter, did you hear that? Release Commander Penco immediately. This is an order from Wizard Prouss."
Peter's expression changed.
He never expected things to take this turn for the worse.
Releasing Peng Ke means that the hard-won position of guild leader will be handed over to someone else.
Peter considered for a moment and said, "No, Penco is a knight whom Lord Wizard Leo specifically ordered to be imprisoned. He can't be released like this."
Prus narrowed his eyes and released a terrifying magical pressure toward Peter.
He wanted to use this to give Peter a hard time.
However, given Peter's current physical condition, Prouss's magical pressure vanished as if a stone had sunk into the sea.
Prus was filled with doubt and uncertainty, and then cast a spell.
A chain pierced through Peter's chest.
Peter felt his strength rapidly waning.
Prus breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his spell had worked.
"You, go and release Peng Ke."
Prus pointed at Peter and said, "Then you, take me to see that wizard."
"I'd like to see which wizard from the Tower of Dawn dares to break my contract."

Prus held his head high and looked completely at ease.
Seeing this, the other knights realized that there might be a difference between Leo and this wizard from Prouss.
Leo locks himself in his small house all day and shows no arrogance befitting a wizard; he's clearly not a powerful wizard.
In contrast, Prus always had an arrogant expression, which clearly showed that he was quite capable.
The knights of the Order of Knights are different from the wizards.
The more powerful they are, the more they will show their pride on their faces, rather than being reserved.
A knock came at the door.
Leo looked up and asked, "Who is it?"
"It's me." Prouss shoved aside the knight beside him without ceremony, kicked the door open, and looked at the person inside.
Upon seeing Leo, Prus gave him a scrutinizing look and said, "I am Prus of the Tannil Gathering. May I ask which gathering of the Tower of Dawn you belong to?"
Upon hearing this, Leo also sized up the man and said, "My name is Leo. As for which gathering I come from, that's not important."
"Not important? This is a very important matter."
Prus snorted and said, "Gatherings are the backers of wizards. Since you don't say what kind of gathering you are, you must be some unknown little gathering behind you, right? I'm in charge of contacting the knights here. I'm telling you, get out of here right now."
Prus looked arrogant.
Leo remained calm. He sighed and said, "We're all wizards, so why are there so many people like you and Kelly who don't seem like wizards at all?"
After dealing with Leo and Kelly, he knew how to deal with these kinds of people: instead of tolerating their arrogance, you should directly crush their pride.
Leo released a little of his magical pressure.
Prudential immediately felt a terrifying magical pressure pressing down on him.
This demonic pressure made Prus feel as if he were being crushed under a mountain.
Prus trembled and exclaimed, "A first-class wizard apprentice...you are a first-class wizard apprentice!"
Leo said, "Your name is Prouss, right? You're from the Tannil Gathering, aren't you? I hope your gathering will come looking for your body when they find it, so I can tell them about your heroic deeds today."
Prouss's face suddenly turned pale. He knelt on the ground and said, "Lord Wizard Leo, I'm so sorry, please forgive me. I really didn't know you were a first-class wizard apprentice."
"Alright..."
Leo said, "Get up."
Leo withdrew the overwhelming magical pressure.
Prus, sweating profusely, said with a resentful expression, "Lord Wizard Leo, these knight contracts are yours from now on, if you need them."
