Reincarnated Maid is About To Be Captured by All Players

Volume 2 Chapter 32



“Hey, someone from their side is breaking out.”

“Probably a desperate attempt, a pointless struggle. Just leave a few to deal with him; our target is Amalilyce. We can’t waste time on him.”

As the charging adventurers exchanged words, they concluded that since the individual didn’t have Amalilyce with him, he wasn’t worth their attention.

However, the arcane missiles being fired from the rear were oddly targeted. Initially meant to support the archers in suppressing fire, all the arcane missiles were now aimed at the lone knight. Close range might be manageable, but hitting a mounted knight at a distance was nearly impossible; the missiles were just grazing by, effectively useless.

“What are you guys doing?! We’ve coordinated many times before, there’s no way to make such a rookie mistake. Our formation doesn’t include new players; there are always experienced old players guiding us. Arcane missiles are meant to cover gaps when archers are reloading, not to attack a worthless knight!”

“It’s not that! I have this feeling… I must prioritize attacking that taunting knight!”

“Taunt? Were you taunted? What kind of taunt reaches this far…”

During the conversation, the cavalry also began to change direction, unanimously heading towards the knight.

Taunt induces a compulsory behavior, ignoring the will of the individual. Suddenly, all the cavalry were influenced by the taunt.

Some sharp-eyed players noticed the Golden Apple in the knight’s hand.

“It’s the Golden Apple! He has the Golden Apple!”

“Golden Apple…! That special item from Arcadia? Archers, take down that guy’s Golden Apple!”

The Black Hawk Mercenary Group, being experienced and knowledgeable, quickly realized what was happening. To break the Golden Apple’s taunt, there are generally only three ways: kill the holder, separate the apple from the holder, or have the holder deactivate it themselves. As the taunt effect of the Golden Apple is continuous and can be instantly reapplied even if dispelled, along with its wide range, it is an incredibly annoying item.

But its only prominent feature is the taunt. Typical taunting skills give some defense to the user or continuous health regeneration or damage reduction to prevent instant death. The Golden Apple’s taunt provides none of these. It’s jokingly said that a real man should use the Golden Apple with the thinnest armor and take the hardest hits.

The archers redirected their attacks, and numerous targeted skills locked onto the knight.

But with a roar from the knight, a fierce windstorm kicked up, forcefully knocking down the incoming arrows.

“That’s… 【Fearless Charge】?! Fellow knight ahead! You must be more than just an average Joe! Could there be some misunderstanding between us?”

Fearless Charge is an advanced magic that can only be activated while mounted. It combines high damage, rapid assault, and evasion in a practical skill, fully exploiting the advantage of a mount. The downside is a high dependence on the mount, as it bears most of the burden. After activating Fearless Charge, the knight should have entered a weakened state, but the distance didn’t decrease much, indicating an exceptional mount. As the saying goes, a fine steed for a hero. The knight on its back must be no ordinary adventurer. Thus, the Black Hawk Mercenary Group attempted to negotiate.

“Since you asked so sincerely, I shall generously tell you! I am Sir Ivanhe of Smiley!”

“Sir Ivanhe of Smiley? An adventurer from Azerlar obstructing our mission from the Kingdom of Mikael, is there any benefit for you?”

“The lady needs my help, how can I stand by and do nothing!”

The adventurers cursed their luck for encountering someone notoriously irrational. To make matters worse, he was astonishingly fast. While their mounts were not inferior, competing in speed with a true swift steed was overestimating themselves.

“Damn it, I can’t control my urge to shoot him in the face?!”

“Ugh… you successfully disgusted me…”

“I’m gonna blast him!!!”

“Maintain formation! Don’t break ranks!”

“But my legs are urging me to go that way!”

“What are you doing? Chasing a man with such joy?”

“Which eye of yours sees us being happy? Tell the others not to come this way, someone’s using mass taunt!”

“Damn it, archers! Use your AOE magic now, are you saving it to lay eggs?!”

“Mages! Block him with an ice wall! Quick!”

In less than a minute, the Black Hawk Mercenary Group’s tight formation was torn open by a huge gap due to Ivanhe’s antics with the Golden Apple.

The adventurers, fed up with being toyed with by Ivanhe, subsequently petitioned the organization to allow them to vent their anger on him. Seeing their comrades tied up by Ivanhe, the other members of the Black Hawk Mercenary Group could only reluctantly change their strategy.

Fortunately, they seemed to have only one mount. If so, they could definitely be caught. Not all players skilled in riding were held back by Ivanhe, and the Black Hawk Mercenary Group’s most abundant resource was manpower.

“Report! A large group of players ahead!”

“What’s their banner?”

“Uh, it’s a maid’s headband…?”

“Anastasia’s support group?!”

【Morale -1%】

“No wonder it’s Anastasia’s support group; they managed what other guilds couldn’t, merely announcing their name lowers morale.”

“Is now the time to admire them? Keep the morale Buff up! Our people are coming this way, they can’t escape!”
