Chapter 30: part 1 - Teamwork
A black leather coat that hung down to the ankles and gloves to match, with sturdy black plate armor resting on his shoulders. Additionally a thick cloth was wrapped around his neck. Although the most notable characteristics was, what appeared to be a large kitchen knife elongated to match his frame of nearly two meters. (6.5 feet)
The great and glorious me, is excited to try out the decapitator. So tell me.. Hey! What the fuck is this! Why are my cute pets dead!? August! What is going on here!?
I-it wasnt me! I-I didnt do it! It was them! Those adventurers that Boris hired! They did it!
Adventurers?
He turned his head towards us, his mouth popping open as he glared at me. However he soon turned the glare onto Sierra. After that Toa, his eyes passed over Nem without apparent hostility. I thought he may have been attempting to sense the magic power coming from us.
It was you wasnt it?
His gaze had returned to Toa. Toa had a stronger magic power than Sierra? However, this was no time to find out.
Dont ignore me! The one who killed my pet was you wasnt it!
At that I stepped forward.
What do you want?!
I didnt reply, theres no point to this conversation. At any rate, this guy starts swinging his sword around.
Hehehehehe, sorry Boris, but Ill have you die here today.
Hiding in this mans shadow, August laughed as if he had nothing to fear.
If you hadnt hired adventurers I would have left you alive, I intended to pay you properly for the land. I wasnt even going to do anything bad. Just build a nice mansion overlooking the village, and live out my days there. What do you think, thats the best life for a merchant isnt it? However, since its turned out like this, it cant be helped.
I dont know what relationship Boris and this merchant had, probably not a good one; but somehow he looked sad.
August, two of these guys look kind of strong. I trust you wont be stingy with the reward?
Hes probably talking about Toa and Sierra, his eyes hadnt strayed from them since earlier.
Please relax, I do not fool around when it comes to the exchange of money. If you kill them all I will double the initial price we agreed upon. Once I have this land, running out of money will be the least of my concerns.
Youre not lying to me right?
Of course, however if you dont kill them I wont pay you.
Who do you think youre talking to? I am his wonderfulness Gordon!
With an arrogant attitude this man who called himself Gordon, lowered the giant sword to the ground.
So who wants to die first, anyone is fine, choose for me.
As he said this his eyes never left the two girls. Meaning, he was totally sure that I was weak. I have no idea what level of magic power hes capable of sensing but its clear he felt nothing from me.
Ill do it.
Huh?
For a second I doubted my own ears, Toa stepped forward with a bullheaded look. I dont think the idiot with the dead basilisk pets liked it either, Toa appeared to not be afraid at all.
Are you going to be ok all alone? You ladies can do this together.
In that case.
Sierra?!
Sierra stepped forward as well, her sword already out of its scabbard.
Hahaha, it looks like tonight is going to be fun! After I cut your legs off Ill kill the three behind you, then once I get the reward money; Ill show the two of you to my room at the Inn.
The two girls seem motivated, but I had decided. I wont let this filth get close to them.
Masamune, stay out of this. Ill take care of it.
Where did the scared little Toa I first met run off too?
Masamune-dono please stand back.
At that Gordon turned a sharp gaze on me.
I dont like it.
Huh?
I said I dont like it. You being served by these women like its obvious they should do so.
.
Why dont you go ahead and die.
However, as Gordon laughed the girls stepped out together. Toa brandished a broadsword and Sierra held her rapier, they rushed at Gordon who had yet to raise his sword. Surprisingly, the sound of sword against sword rand out around the farm.
You ladies move fast. Did you come over to play with me?
Using the flat of his blade, Gordon had stopped both swords at the same time.
Well that didnt do much.
Toa laughed as she locked eyes with Sierra.
[Lightning]!
At Toas invocation a yellow circle appeared around Gordons feet, with a thunderous roar the bolt of lightning fell, striking him.
Guaaaaaah!
Steam rose from Gordons charred, blackened body.
TOA-DONO!
FUCK YOU!
Gordon, his expression twisted in rage swung his sword, The decapitator.
