Chapter 1295 - Mysterious Man
Landon frowned while listening to Josh.
Afraid of soone? What kind of powerful entity is this to make his brother so worried?
Josh held onto the ship's rails and stared at the stars deeply: "Brother, as I lay my head to rest earlier one, an old mory quickly resurfaced in my mind, shocking
silly... Brother, do you rember the ti when I got kidnapped for the 2nd ti?"
Landon thought hard and nodded at him: "That ti, you were kidnapped and almost sold during one of your missions around Arcadina. But thankfully, you and the remaining survivors were saved by one of Lucius' brothers."
"Ye... Yes..." Josh affird: "It's exactly like that. But you see, the people who kidnapped us seed to be slave traders that worked particularly in Dafaren."
"And that person is the one you fear?"
Josh nodded his head slowly.
At that ti, he was so weak and young that those n chose not to send him as a slave knight but as a pleasure slave instead.
The him of that ti was bullied around by many in the knighthood academy and was sunny and thin too.
At the ti, to make Lucius' life unbearable, he and many other 'trash' knights were assigned to Lucius' command.
Lucius was to teach and train them as his prodeges, aning they also had to sign up for competitions with other knights in the academy, take up missions from Lucius's hands and so on.
At that ti, no one would've thought that the trash group of then would beco the proud core mbers of Baymard today.
All 300 and sothing of them were the first gang of Baymardian soldiers.
Of course, back then, Lucius had more people under him.
But over the years, the number of people who died during missions were great.
And even during the tis when he was kidnapped, over 90% of his group died. He was punched and knocked out cold to the face, only to wake up in a slave-cage, getting transported away.
These were dark tis, and people died every single day, with their bodies thrown on the streets here and there.
Josh had faced death almost every single day of his life. And honestly, given how weak he was back then, he felt it was a miracle that he could survive till this day.
He expected to die at 18 or sothing.
But surprisingly, fate had other plans for him.
.
As for the matter currently bothering him, it all had to do with the resulting mory he just had.
Back then, after he got kidnapped, during one of the tis when he was beaten for his stubbornness and on the verge of faintly, he heard an interesting dialogue between his captors.
No shock to this, Dafaren, as well as many other empires and continents far wealthier than Pyno's, typically ca over to kidnap and capture slaves.
And in Dafaren, they seed to have sothing which was a powerful entity that owned the biggest slave syndicate there.
And from how these people spoke and compared Nopline with the guy, it seed that Nopline was just a toddler standing before this guy.
No. These people said that Nopline was copying the big guy when it ca to slave entertainnt. So could it be that the powerful man in Dafaren had his own elite underground slave entertainnt sights too?
Make no mistake!
To run such a deep-rooted conglorate that could take over the entire Dafaren ant that such a person had a mighty force that could make countless people shiver in fear.
And if he were more potent than Nopline, then imagine how big the guy was in terms of power?
Landon listened and was suddenly speechless.
F***! How co there was another Nopline hiding sowhere else?
'Dammit! How could I underlook the existence of slave traders within powerful continents like Veinitta? If I'm going to put Tilda on the throne, then I also have to take down not only get royal family, but other deadly forces such as these too. Because once her tule cos banning slavery, the enemies lined up to kill her would be huge! And judging from how long it took
to deal with Nopline's forces, I'll have to start working on it a few years earlier before her reign.'
Landon secretly ca up with a full Dafaren-sweep plan in his head.
There was no helping it. He was the babysitter and ass-wiper for all so and daughters of the heavens.
He would clear a majority of their problems before they sat their butts on the thrones.
With Tilda's case, he also had to build up a vast support group for her. That is, no one likes her because they superstitiously think she's cursed.
Well, only a handful of people like her Grandmother, Paula, like her.
And a ruler who is hated, despised and looked down on by their ministers and people, would definitely not sit steadily on the throne.
But enough about Tilda.
Josh glanced at Landon profoundly: "Brother, back then, I was so aggrieved with the death of my comrades that I managed to bury this information deep within my brain. I just thought that I would never get to go to Dafaren or see that person. So I deed the vague information useless. It's only now that I'm worried about it all."
...
-silence-
The duo briefly stayed in heavy silence.
Instetsetjng...
Landon has known Josh for a long ti. So he knew that he hadn't hit the nail on its head yet.
"If I'm not mistaken, apart from the n he commands, sothing else about the man worries you, right?"
Josh turned to Landon with a slight smile on his face: "As expected of you, brother. You can see right through ... Sigh~~... Back then, I heard their n say that this person has a deadly unknown power that could kill many with a single glance. At first, I didn't think anything of it. But now, seeing the captured Witch we apprehended, being able to control tal, I'm starting to think that this strange man might be a deadly force to reckon with!"
Landon's eyes turned cold.
He knew it. It was those stupid gifts again!
The duo spoke for a bit more until the ships finally took off.
Now, it was ti for action!
