"You don't understand, do you? If you want to leave here alive, then give us all your meat and run away as fast as your legs can take you," the man threatened before turning his gaze to Freya with a sinister smile. "Though, if the girl over there is ready to serve me, I can spare you a rabbit or two." "Just like a crappy old villain, about to become exp points for MC," Ben muttered, rubbing his forehead. Until now, he believed that people like him existed only in fictional novels. "What did you say,…

"Hey, can't you be just a little more polite? It's not like I am begging for your help or anything; I just want to know whether you want to stay or not." "You don't need to ask me to prove how desperate you are..." While both Freya and Ray were engaged in an argument, Ben's gaze was fixed somewhere else. The whole time, his blood vision remained active, tracking every movement of the villagers. Without much effort, he identified the targets he wanted. "Yes, they are. Not only are there 6 to 10…

"I'm going to post a quest in the adventurer guild," Ray declared with determination etched on his face. "Are you out of your mind?" Alex exclaimed, rising from his seat. "Have you ever considered how much money it will cost to hire that many mercenaries?" "And are you even sure the wolves will attack us? What if we hire the mercenaries, and the attack never happens? Think of the economic tragedy it would be," Alex blurted out in rapid succession, leaving himself no time to catch his breath. Ray…

"Ray! What was the response? Did you get the permissions you required?" Alex stood over the doorway of a bland room. The room was an office for the chief, surrounded by documents on a table and a wooden chair in the middle. Ray responded with a slight smile, looking into Alex's eyes. "I won't say I got all the results I expected, but I can say the results are positive." "And how so?" Alex asked, taking a seat in front of Ray. "I have conditional rights regarding this attack. If the village were…

"I, the second prince of the human kingdom, request a council with authority," Ray declared, standing in a small room surrounded by walls covered in rainbow-colored crystalline glass, casting pointy lights in various hues around the room. 'MAY THE PRINCE SUBMIT THE REASON FOR THIS COUNCIL' A resonant oracle voice filled the crystalline room, its source concealed. Ray knelt on his left leg, fist over his chest, in a salute of respect. "It's an emergence regarding the sovereignty of the kingdom and…

"Die like the filth you are," Freya remarked with a chilling expression, her eyes aglow in complete purple, showing no emotion in the face of the bloody spectacle before her. "BAaAANNNggGG" With a blasting sound, a water bullet pierced through the man's head, shattering through it like a velocity stone against a watermelon. A heavy silence descended upon the battlefield. Those who remained, either still conscious or fortunate enough to escape, stood frozen, wide-eyed, staring at the lifeless body…

"Running so fast? I thought you wanted to have some fun with me." Freya said, with a sharp smile on her face, she walked forward. The air around her was cracking with the immense use of Aether. Ben looked at her, and of the number of people on the ground, they weren't put unconscious or mildly injured like Ben had to them. They had been fatally injured and left bleeding on the ground. "Is she possessed again?" Ben wondered, his gaze fixed on the faint hint of purple in her eyes. If she were possessed…

"Why didn't you let me negotiate? You have no idea how much manpower you're losing, Ray." Alex voiced his concern, his tone reflecting his unease with Ray's decision. Ray continued to sharpen his black knuckles against a sharpening stone, the sound of metal against stone ringing in the air. He replied without glancing at Alex, focusing on the task at hand. "You don't understand. Ben never said he'd be leaving our side. Besides, if we push too hard, it'll come across as desperation. As my father always…
