The clouds in the sky hid the blinding Sun of Xavier behind them, and the fluttering of the leaves sounded in the forest of the beasts as swift wind bellowed.
The beast's forest, just like its na, was a place inhabited by beasts between the magical and demonic realm, but that's not all as in the central region of this place, there live beasts more powerful than the demonic realm.
They were known as the lord of the beast — terrifying beasts in the realm of lords that could destroy half a city in a single attack.
The beast's forest connected four different cities to each other, and a person could reach any of the four cities by entering the forest from one point and coming out of the other.
The humans have divided the beast's forest into three different zones according to the information they have gathered over the hundred years spend in Xavier. Naly, they are the outskirts, inner regions, and central regions.
The outskirts of the beast's forest are the least dangerous as there happens to be only beasts of the magical realm in this place, and a lot of weak combatants would co to this place to hunt magical beasts in order to earn profit and make a living, unaware of the dangers imposed by the bandits sick in their heads.
The bandit's most famous hunting ground was the outskirts of the beast's forest, and they hunted down the adventurers with low strength for the little bit of money they could earn from selling their items.
Beneath a mountain that seed like a pin sticking out of the wall from way above ground, the bandits terrorizing the outskirts of the beast's forest near Leslie have set up their tents.
"Boss, when will it beco possible for us to enter the city and sell our captives?"
The voice of a bandit from the Red Skull crew sounded in the area.
Sitting on the round wooden stubs, stones, and similar substances outside the tents were several n and a beautiful weapon with curves at the right place. The bandits with burly figures had thick weapons strapped to their clothes, and their leader had an ugly scar on his face which stretched from his left eye to the right cheek.
The fierce bandit with fiery-red hair ripped out a chunk of at from the raw leg of the beast in his hand and said while chewing it, "Won't be longer than a week. Soon we will be able to enter and exit the city as we like. The broker has already told that the minister of law enforcent of Leslie will sack and kill a few guards that have been acting up and replace them with his n. So that we will be able to do business in peace in the depth of the night."
According to the information of the mission, the Red Skull bandits appeared in the northern outskirt of the beast's forest a month ago.
Over the past few weeks, the Red Skull bandits have beco the worst nightmare for adventurers.
The bandits have caused a lot of casualties, looting and killing several adventurers and citizens of Leslie.
"We still have to stay in this God-forsaken place for several days?" The busty female bandit said in a disgruntled voice.
"What's so bad about this place? We got at, won, and nurous prey here. It's far better than living in a city."
"Yeah, David said the words of my heart. We got a lot of fresh virgins in our cave and they are just waiting to be loved."
"They sll nice too. Should we play with them?"
As soon as he said those words, Javier looked at him in annoyance and began speaking with killing intent brimming in his eyes, "Don't touch them, or I will chop off your hands."
The bandits gulped and nodded their heads, indicating that they won't dare to go against his order.
"No food for the both of you tonight!" Javier punished them as the bandits needed to follow the rules set by the strong.
He had warned them not to have any dirty thoughts about their rchandise, but they didn't listen to his warning and were planning on acting on their nefarious intent.
Their actions would have resulted in the price of the rchandise decreasing substantially.
A stupid loss he didn't want to suffer!
The bandits revealed a devastated look on their faces, feeling downcast due to the punishnt they received from Javier.
"Serve you right for being the smallest and the most foul-slling bastards." The redhead female bandit taunted them with a laugh.
"You!"
While the two bandits were bickering with each other, Javier, the second strongest mber of the Red Skull Bandits, looked at Janis and said, "Boss, where are we going to hit next?"
Although they had a lot of items stored in their spatial devices and also kidnapped citizens locked up inside the caves, Javier still wanted to loot others and make a bit more money, for his greed was endless.
"Let's go to the entrance of the outskirts of this forest. We might find so sheep there." Janis replied as he gobbled down the at in his hand before licking his fingers.
"Prepare yourself, boys! We're about to head out!"
What they didn't notice was that three boys in their teens were listening to their words, hiding behind the trunk of the thick, towering tree with vibrant green leaves.
Vincent and Varth didn't like what they heard, and killing intent stord out of their eyes.
Before they could pick up their weapons and made their way out of their camp, a calm voice filled with murderous desires sounded in their ears,
"You won't be going anywhere except for the afterlife," Varth said as he suddenly stepped out of the hiding spot.
This was totally out of plan and took Vincent and John by surprise.
Wasn't the plan to sneak attack them?
Why are you revealing yourself??
