282: Chapter 282 – Saving the Princess 282: Chapter 282 – Saving the Princess “Ma’am, are you okay?” I ask her.
Now that I was close to her, I would like to say that she’s even hotter like this.
But in such a situation…
her body did not do any favors for her.
It seed that she’s probably in shock as she looked at rather frozen.
Maybe she got scared by my big physique?
No worries, in the future she’ll learn to love it eventually.
“You killed him!” The thug behind her, almost hiding, said in shock.
“Yes, I did.
But what you guys are doing here is sothing much worse, preying on innocent children, putting your luscious gaze on the MIL- Such a fine woman.
You all should be burned for your cris.” I said, trying to put in so points for .
The bandit backed away in fear, trying to use the kitchen knife to threaten .
“Back away or I’ll… I’ll…” “What?
Cut like a onion?” I say and stand in front of the MILF, “Close your eyes, this isn’t sothing you or the children should see.” She did as I say and blocked the children’s eyes but remained her open.
Probably wanting to see justice done to this bandit who was about to rape her a while ago.
“No… please, I have children.” The bandit pleaded by using his own children, how ironic.
I say nothing, just swing my sword over him, cutting him cleanly in half.
I turn around, intending to see the woman frightened but instead she looked at head on.
There wasn’t fear in her eyes but gratitude.
Finding my chance, I went to talk, “My Lady, what is your nam-” “Arghhh!!” I hear a young cry coming from inside the orphanage.
I quickly took that sound as Princess Hanako’s.
She scread as if sothing dangerous happened to her.
‘Damn!
Of all ti.’ “Go to her!” The MILF told .
“She needs you more than I do.” “I’ll do that.” I say and point her outside, “Go outside, my n should have finished taking care of the attackers by now.” “Tell them that Henry sent you and you’ll receive any assistance you want.” She nodded, “Thank you.” Her voice was sweet like matured wine.
If only I had ti to savor it.
I retch my view away from her and run towards the scream.
“Bang!” Banging open the door, I co to the prayer room.
At the end of the room, where they would preach, I saw Hanako cowering at the wall.
In front of her lay, the guards that were protecting her.
There were three others that stood over the bodies, stabbing them.
Two of them seed like foreign people, rcenaries.
And the last one… As I take a good look at him, I see the mark of Snake Tails tattooed on his chest.
A mber of the gang, belonging to one of the bad snakes.
Seeing my cool approach, Hanako glanced at , her eyes which were fearful a mont ago now filled with hope.
Even though she didn’t trust , I was like a beacon to her now.
On the other hand, her attackers didn’t look sow glad to see , “Which fucker is this?” “And why’s he so tall?” The two foreign rcenaries spoke in Japanese.
‘As I thought, these rcenaries should belong to Seisimo and the gang mbers should belong to Kay Gon and his pals.
This was a joint attack.’ I ignore them and give a willful nod to Hanako, taking a look at her injuries.
There was only a light slash on her hand.
‘Good, the package is unhard.’ “Hey, answer us.
Who the fuck are you?” The left rcenary said, pointing his Daito sword at .
I didn’t need to introduce myself.
“Oh shit!” The gang mber recognized as he widened his eyes, “I- It’s you!” The other rcenary asked him, “You know him, who is he?” “He’s Henry Van Tax.
The dangerous boss that we told you about before.” The guy said, taking a step back but bursting into blood and at the next mont.
The rcenaries looked at as I aid my arms at hi,, “Unfortunately, I don’t have ti for who’s who talk.
Let’s just fight.” Both rcenaries pulled up their swords, ready to fight with them.
I smile at that.
They didn’t have strength left to use their rings anymore.
That made things easier.
A few monts later.
“Gargh!” I stab the remaining rcenary, pulling him up at the sky.
He vomited blood and lay on the sword, helpless.
Waiting for his body to die.
I fling him aside and swipe the blood away from my sword.
“Princess, are you hurt?” “N- No… I’m fine.
How are you?” She asked, still standing with her back on the wall.
“I’m alright, this guys were just pesky people.” Hanako didn’t know what to say.
She saw these pesky people kill her elite guards and couldn’t refute when she saw Henry killing them so easily.
I go towards her, “Co with , Princess.
I’ll take you to safet-” I couldn’t finish my words as a Odachi tried to strike down.
“Clang!” I intercept easily and get shocked seeing who the attacker is.
“Genzo?
Why are you attacking ?” Genzo pushed with all his strength and tried to stride aside, but I stood my ground, “I can’t let you harm the princess.
Stand aside traitor!” “Traitor?” I raise my brow and understand what he was getting at.
I parry his sword away and take a step back, “Wait!
You misunderstand, I’m on your side.” “I misunderstand nothing.” Genzo said, his sword aiming up as he kept it close, “How were you able to get here so quickly and that too at such an appropriate ti?” “It’s as if you already knew of the attack and were about to take advantage of the confusion to gain the trust of her highness and kill her!” ‘He is right about all things, except for the last part.’ “Well, I did know-” “So you admit!” Genzo said and ran towards , “Prepare to die!” “Stop Genzo!” Genzo stopped in his montum as he saw Princess Hanako standing guard before , “Princess, stand aside, he’s the traitor.” “He’s not the traitor.
He helped .” “That’s what he wants.
He wants to gain your trust and kill you when you least expect it, princess.” “No, he doesn’t.” Hanako shook her head and pulled her hands down, “In fact, he already warned about this before.” “He what?” Genzo stood his Odachi down, “When?” “Back at the mansion, when he gave that piece of paper.” Hanako said, rembering the mont.
Back then, when Henry left with Genzo, Hanako read the paper.
‘Beware!
There will be an assassination attempt tomorrow!’ “Is that so?” Genzo looked at , his eyes less worried, “But why didn’t you tell , Princess?” “Well… Because you get paranoid over such things.” Hanako said and looked down, “And I wasn’t sure if it was real or not.” She quickly turned around and gave a grateful look, “But I know now that you ca with good intentions, Mr.
Tax.
I’m sorry for being distrustful before.” I smile, “It’s alright Princess.
But I think it would be best if you get to safety this instant.” “Yes, Let’s go back to the mansion-” “That won’t do.” I shook my head, “Assassins could already be waiting for you there.” “Then where do you suggest I stay?” She asked with such an innocent expression that I couldn’t help but take advantage.
“I know a secure place, where no one would fin- hurt you.” I show an bright and honest smile.
