“Zero, break their legs and arms” Rezen ordered and his loyal subordinate imdiately made his move
Zero reached the assassins affected by the [Savage Moon] spell that were trying to tear each other’s faces
His hands moved rcilessly as he broke their arms and legs in a swift manner just by using his bare arms
“AAAAAHHHHH!!”
The assassins released a blood-curling scream and the pain from their limbs released them from the spell’s influence
Their whole body beca drenched with sweat, their clothes tightly sticking to their bodies
Despite them wearing masks, Rezen can still see that the eyes of these bastards were filled with wrath
“Speak! Who sent you?” Rezen questioned as he raised his palm
On top of his palm was a crimson-red magic circle and on top of it were three small balls of fire floating and rotating at his will
None of the assassins gave an answer and Rezen signaled for Zero to take their masks off
These three aren’t people that Rezen is familiar with causing him to frown
Who did he offend? Rezen was trying to think of the answer when Zero suddenly moved in front of him
“Pweeh!”
It turns out that one of the assassins tried to spit at him. Fortunately, Zero blocked it for him
“The hell? If you are angry at then curse and shout at ! Why do you have to be this disgusting? Don’t you have any manners?” Rezen said in disgust
If that spit landed on him he might have had Zero engrave his body with the mystic tattoo right this instance just to kill that bastard with a punch
A week might have passed but Rezen is busy hunting magic beasts and eating rainbow clentines. There is almost no ti to consu other spirit plants
Fortunately, he now has his blend— Spirit Plants Essence Condenser
In irritation, Rezen controlled his fireballs and have them burn the face of the assassin that almost hit him with his spit
“Bleegghh, I knew it, one should not let their anger consu them” Rezen grimaced at his own doing
He had witnessed deaths with so even his own doing but it was still disgusting!
Why does he have to kill by burning the bastard’s face off? Thanks to that, the air slls horrible
“Speak! I can let you go if you tell who sent you!” Rezen questioned again, lanting his sleepless days ahead
“You will die soon! Our organization always avenged the deaths of the mbers!” The assassin replied and before Rezen can extract more information, they already killed themselves
“The hell? How did they do that?” Rezen mumbled and a thought appeared in his head as he had Zero open one of the suicidal assassin’s mouth
As expected, the assassin’s tongue was black in color. They took poison to kill themselves
“The legendary plot in the novels where the assassins would kill themselves using poison once they were caught to avoid spilling information!” Rezen shuddered at this
He knew that this kind of organization is not good. They are most likely a fearso assassination organization
“Damn who have I provoked?”
Rezen tried to think again and he only have two answers
The first one were the families of the ones that died in the Blessed Land’s trial. But the dia almost don’t have any news about that incident. Common people are unaware of what Blessed Lands are
The second one was the comrades of the Wolf King
If it was the first one, they would probably attack Rezen imdiately. But this assassination incident only happened right after the Wolf King incident
Rezen can only sigh… why is living in this world this hard?
He lanted just how dangerous this world is before he rembered sothing
“Oh, right! Brother Claude told to contact him if anything abnormal happened!” Rezen almost forgot about this and he excitedly held his phone to dial a certain number
Fortunately, it didn’t take that long before he received an answer
“Brother Claude!” Rezen chirped excitedly
“Hello…”
“Brother Claude, I have news! News!”
“I’m listening”
“Did you know that there was soone called the Wolf King in the Ratois Mountain? The soldiers were about to train but this Wolf King arrived and kill them! Only one of the soldiers survived and even the Captain… Jay? Jayna? Ah, no, Captain Jayla was killed!”
Rezen instantly turned into a gossiping auntie as he summarizes the incident. It has been a long ti since he last talked with this cool sugar dadd— brother
If he ‘perford well’ who knows if Claude would reward him?
“Killed? All of them?”
Even though they were talking through the phone, Rezen can still sense the killing intent of Claude
This guy is an upright soldier. He naturally would be angry since his fellow soldiers died
“And why am I not inford…?” Claude continued
“No… it can’t be…”
“Hmm? What’s wrong brother?”
“Rezen, thank you for the information. I have to go now!”
With that, the call ended and Rezen almost threw his phone
He isn’t finished yet!
With a heart filled with grievances, Rezen called Claude again
“Rezen, is there anything else? I apologize, there is sothing important that I must do”
“Brother! I’m not finished talking yet!”
“Hmm?”
“After the Wolf King incident, so people tried to assassinate tonight! Do you think these things are connected? The assassins were all wearing beast masks! Do you know what organization they are in?”
“Beasts masks… Twighlight Beasts!”
Rezen can hear the sound of sothing shattering at the other end of the call before Claude spoke anxiously
“Rezen, I suggest that you take protection with the military, for now, I can pull so strings! The Twighlight Beasts already existed long ago but they were silent in the past and didn’t do much. But now, they are starting to erge to commit vile acts!”
“That organization is vengeful. If any of their mbers died, they would send stronger people to avenge their mbers! If the Wolf King and the assassins were their mbers, your life would be in danger!”
To think that there was actually such a thing. From Claude’s grave tone, the Twighlight Beasts should be a pretty fearso organization
However… even then… Rezen cannot abandon his farm! This is his lifeblood! Without it, he would be nothing!
“Brother, it’s fine. I’ll ask for your help when I need it” Rezen replied before ending the call lest Claude tries to change his mind and also might or might not be because he wanted to have a little revenge for Claude ending the call abruptly earlier. Although the sugar dadd– brother pulling so strings does sound domineering and Rezen appreciates it
Rezen stored his phone as he stared at the human corpses
“System, can you also absorb human corpses?” Rezen asks
[Ding! Absorbing human corpses]
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining lottery tickets x35 and blessing points x35. Current Blessing Points 415/700]
“Use all the lottery tickets!”
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for receiving recovery pills x34 and mysterious banana x1]
“Hmm?” Rezen’s eyebrows rose
He actually got a jackpot prize with just 35 lottery tickets?
Does using human corpses give out higher chances of receiving a jackpot prize or Rezen was just lucky this ti?
Rezen wanted to know the answer but it’s not like he can just start indiscriminately killing humans to test it
The mysterious banana landed on top of Rezen’s palm and he checked its quality
The ten mysterious bananas he got from recharging with a million mana stones were all just quality 1 or 2
Rezen lacked enough comprehension to reach the third rank and he can only hope that this banana is of quality 3
To Rezen’s surprise, it was indeed a quality 3 banana!
With this banana, Rezen would finally be able to reach the next rank after staying in his current realm for a long ti (just around a week)
“Good stuff!” Rezen said happily. He had already forgotten how angry he was earlier because of the assassination attempt on his life
Humans truly are disgusting. In the face of benefits, they can forget almost everything
“Alright, let’s continue, Zero. The mall might close soon” Rezen said
Even with the assassination attempt that dampened his mood, they still have to make a trip into the city to buy so essentials
Rezen is not so heartless as to let his newly acquired subordinates sleep on the floor
What kind of la boss would be that stingy to their subordinates?
As such, the two rode in the car and they entered Greenwood City
Rezen decided to bring Neil with him to buy things faster. Zero is an artificial human and is not used to the human world yet and Rezen doesn’t want to give him the task alone
With Neil’s help, they can separate and buy the essentials faster
Fortunately, it was nightti now and Neil don’t have to help in the shop nor does he have more classes
When Rezen finally saw his friend whom he also saw earlier this day for the spirit plants delivery, he can’t help but click his tongue
Ever since Neil was admitted to the Rising Sage Academy, he has always been wearing the school’s mage robe uniform as if he doesn’t have any other set of clothes!
