The Strongest Wizard Becomes a Countryside Guardsman After Taking an Arrow to the Knee Chapter 331 – Damian Discussion

Chapter 331 – Damian Discussion

Damian’s house was quite clean and well furnished.

It was almost more like a business office.

「Who is this guy?!」

I ignored the thugs inside and just walked by.

Those that ca at I just slamd to the ground with barriers.

It was the sa thing I did in the Negly base.

「Hello? Damian? Are you here?」

I called out, as I walked in.

「Damian, co out co out, wherever you are?」

After hearing so loud cursing, a guy ca out from a back office.

「I’m Damian. Who are you?!」

「The Mysterious Wolf Mask.」

「Whaa?」

I didn’t have one on...but I kind of did...still in my heart.

「If you don’t know, ask your boss in the capital.」

「Well...whatever...why are you here?」

I guess he was ready to hear out.

He saw I wasn’t here as an act, so he knew I was the real thing.

Almost the sa as the animal world.

If you know the other guy’s stronger, you’re willing to hear him out.

He took back to a very well furnished room and told to sit.

「No need to talk and stand, Damian, please sit.」

Almost like I owned the place.

So I decided to get right to the point by asking,

「Lately, did you have soone looking to get so spirit stones?」

「Whaaa?」

He was quite surprised.

Almost like he was wondering how I knew.

「What? I heard you were looking for them from your boss in the capital.」

He glared at for a second.

He must be doubting my story.

「...What does that have to do with you?」

「Well, a ruler has had so trouble with soone that might be your client.」

That ruler was Cruz. And it was true that there was damages.

Of course, I wasn’t sure that Damian’s client was the one behind it.

Damian was a bad guy though, and Bill and the others made it obvious.

Also there was Tom’s dealings with him, so a bit of threatening might work.

「I want you to tell who is asking you to buy those spirit stones.」

「...no way I can tell you.」

「Too bad. No one wants trouble, Damian.」

「I don’t know what trouble you’re talking about.」

So, I decided to scare him a bit,

「No, Damian, you’re the one in trouble.」

「Whaa?」

「Either way, this ruler’s pissed. You had better settle with her!」

「What the hell do you an?! I’ve nothing to do with it!」

「If you don’t tell who you’re trying to sell the stones to, then you’ve got to settle it with the ruler!」

「What kind of logic is that! You’re ssed up!」

Damian was kind of right. My logic was ssed up.

But it was ssed up that he was trying to rob Tom of his ho too.

No need to use logic with soone that doesn’t use it himself.

And since he was all into survival of the fittest, then I would use it on him.

And now it was ti for him to pay.

So I acted like Damian was the one that wasn’t understanding the logic,

「What? What’s ‘ssed up?’ You won’t tell who you’re buying for, so you’ve got to settle it with this ruler who’s pissed! That’s obvious!」

「Nonononono, I don’t get it. I have nothing to do with whoever that guy is trying to get the stones and that ruler!」

He was right, but I didn’t care.

You can’t just let a guy like that win.

Even if his logic made sense.

「Listen, Damian, you’re acting a little TOO irresponsible here.」

「Hell if I care.」

「Well, I could care less too!」

「What do you an, ‘care less’?」

「About all this crap, you’ve got to settle this with that ruler!」

「...you asshat! ssing with like this...I’m the chief of this branch of Neglys!」

「The boss already told your story. Don’t you rember?」

Then, I smiled.

「Your boss was the one that understood my story. He not only apologized but told that I had to settle it with YOU!」

「Don’t lie to !」

「Why don’t you see if it’s a lie? Well, it would take a month to walk to the capital and back....」

「I can check now. Wait a second.」

「No, why do I have to wait for you? I need to settle this now. Why would I wait for you to check with the capital?!」

「So then this whole discussion is pointless?!」

I guess I had won.

I made everything rely on the fact that Damian had sothing to settle with a ruler.

But I was alone, but there was no doubt that I would beat him in a fight.

「So, what? How are you going to settle this?」

「Money? How much...」

「Let’s see.」

Well, Cruz was a ruler, and her land was wrecked by all those blizzards, so I gave him an estimate.

「WH WHAAA?」

It was so much that Damian turned pale.

「Well, I’ve heard that you’ve made quite a bit here already.」

「But...that much...I...」

I stood up. I looked for a safe.

There was sothing like it in the back of the room.

「How much is in there?」

「N...no.」

He resisted, but I went for the strongbox anyway.

「Bastard! Stop right there!」

And just then, Damian’s thugs burst into the room.
