Volume 5 - CH 22
Act 5-22: The Participation of Dangerous Man
――Inside the forest, around one hour since the start of the raid on Ket Nya.
「Why has no one returned yet!?」
Who knows how many times I have asked while tapping the ground angrily with my feet.
「Maybe, everyone has already been ki–.」
I grabbed the collar of the acting woman before she could finish her words,
「Annihilated? By opponents who are literally no different from a cat!? How can they be defeated by such weak monster!?」
And add even more questions to her.
I’ve never heard about sheep cats being specialized in combat. Not to mention that we’ve a sorcerer on our side. There is no way we’re going to lose against them!
「There’s no need for you to be so angry~. If your scouts are annihilated, it simply means that the other party is one step ahead of you. Moreover, you’ve to at least wait until she finish her words. Maybe, most of your subordinates have betrayed you. Am I ri~ght?」
Sugar, whose blue hair was trimmed in asymmetrical style suddenly appeared from inside the forest and asked Sad’s close aide.
「…」
Sad’s close aide nodded even though she had a hard time breathing, since her collar was grabbed by Sad.
「DON’T SCREW WITH ME! THEY’RE THE UNDERLING WHICH HAVE BEEN AROUND SINCE THE PREVIOUS LEADER YOU KNOW!?」
Those people were orphans that were picked up by my old man, the previous leader. They’re indebted for life to my old man.
「So~? It’s obvious from seeing how you treated them. You never treated your subordinate like a proper human being right?」
「What’s wrong with that!? They’re just disposable piece for me, tool for me, their leader to use as I wished!
Their life is for me to decide!」
Sugar shrugged his shoulders as he sent a scornful laugh at Sad.
「You really are beyond saving huh. But, whatever. Whether they’re betraying you or annihilated, everyone but that aide of of yours are no more than disposable piece, ri~ght?」
「Just tell me what do you want to say already!?」
When she asked, she saw that Sugar had already said all that he wanted to say and had no reason to continue the conversation. Nor did he give Sad another reason to continue.
「I’m off then. If you’re betrayed, I’ll kill them, if the enemy is strong, it’s my prey too. That’s my duty, ri~ght?」
He was right. Nevertheless, it has nothing to do with the current Sad. Because she deemed anyone who lost against a monster like a sheep cat useless. Not to mention that she had another way to forestall her subordinates.
Anyhow, the other reason she hired Sugar was for insurance to prevent something like this. And this was the best moment for doing the clean up.
「Understood. I’ll leave them to you.」
「60% of the total profit from selling the sheep cat will be mine, how does that sound?」
Dammit! He tried to strike a bargain at this very moment eh! But, we’ll be at a disadvantage if we make an enemy of Sugar at this time. 40% of the share is already a lot. At least, the profit we get from selling the young sheep cat that is still trembling in fear until now is enough for us to have enough money to open a more respectable business.
「Sure. But you’ve to take care of all the opponents. We’re going to stay behind.」
There was a skilled sorcerer amongst my subordinates. Especially Mohi and Koukin, they’re quite capable fighters. And troublesome enemies have decided to betray me. I knew that the information broker guaranteed that Sugar was quite a reliable force in this regard but he might’ve had a hard time against Koukin and Mohi. If that was really the case, the safest plan was to watch the ensuing situation till the end from a highly elevated place.
「Leave the ones who try to escape to me, meaning that you’re fine with seeing only piece of their body, right?.」
「That’s your job right?」
「How miserable…」
Sugar shrugged his shoulder again, turning around and walking slowly toward the village before his figure vanished after he moved at his top speed.
「We’ll return immediately with this brat if Sugar doesn’t come back at the promised time!」
""
「Y-Yes!」
After her aide replied so, both of them turned around and walked away from the village.
