Prior to the battle,
Akaysh entered the Dracton successfully and went in search of Nix around the city. He was dressed up similar to an Outlaw. Wearing black armor and a sword tied to his waist without any engravings of Ferandel's symbol plus luggage other than that there was nothing much, unlike his flashy self.
"Sir, do you know an Outlaw nad Nix?" Akaysh asked in a low tone.
"No...Never heard of the na."
A patrol soldier replied and walked away.
'Who was he? Was he really from Dracton?'
Akaysh muttered boarding a carriage while gazing out of the window.
No matter what Nix's na didn't co out very much and all that encircled around Dracton was that a new clan nad Transgressors has been established and their clan lord is a Youngman in his twenties.
In doubts about that information and putting his belief on intuition, Akash decided to investigate the Transgressors for further clues in order to finish his mission.
Just as he was about to pass by the ground he found a crowd piling up around two people. A young man fighting against an orc. As his interest piqued to watch the match he paid the driver a few coins and got off the carriage and walked towards the crowd.
Nix and Akaysh have not crossed paths yet, Akaysh didn't know who Nix was and Nix didn't know who Akaysh was. Just as he was standing inside the crowd he heard soone saying that he was the new clan lord plus his black and white hair and his physical appearance was similar to the ones Shreya described.
So, he was compelled to watch the showdown of the Youngman.
'Hmm, his skills are a bit lower than 8th sequence Feran Knight's...'
He mumbled as Nix pinned Tarok down.
Every city under the royal dynasty's control possesses a knight division and Ferandel's knight division is called the Feran knight division. The lower the sequence indicates how strong a knight is. This ans Nix's fighting skills were lower than eight knights of Ferandel.
The sa goes for Dracton city's, Dragonire Knights and it's the sa for the angels and devils. The ones he faced were actually weak. He might be special since he has the potential to beco big but, that doesn't an he is ultimately powerful. He was mid-level in fighting skills and power level. He was held special because of his threatening potential.
So he was indeed weaker than most of the knights. Even though he transcended the agility level of a human he was still weaker in other aspects. Without Berserk havoc, he'd be several tis weaker than he currently is. This indicates that most Outsiders in the chaos mainland are weak.
That doesn't an deputy commanders of Zerast and other high-tier clan mbers are weak. It is just unavoidable to not find sothing powerful than the other. There is always one thing better than the other, isn't it?
"He could be the culprit..."
Akaysh mumbled and turned back carrying his luggage on his shoulder.
***
"Awrr! Tarok does not lose to Nix!! Awrr!"
He squird like a worm on the ground as Nix began to gash him with his dagger while tightening his grip with the chain and made him get suffocated gritting his teeth. Nix was actually giving his all and continuously forced him.
"Tarok lost..." Tarok muttered in a very low tone, unlike his regular self.
Nix understood his words and loosened the grip and walked away. Orcs were not scummy to pull off underhanded moves; they keep their word and take challenges seriously.
Tarok bowed his head and kneeled before him.
"I accept defeat, my liege"
People around the ground stared at the scene in amazent and bewildernt mumbling and whispering to each other. Even a patrol soldier that ca to separate the crowd away from the ground gave a dazed look at Nix.
At that mont for so reason, Nix found an ecstatically pleasurable feeling surge through his heart. The feeling of seeing as soone superior which was sothing extrely dissimilar to him pumped up sothing new within him.
'Liege huh?'
Nix muttered and said.
"Aright, let's go Tarok."
Tarok nodded his head and followed Nix to his clan house. Camila who was seated on the couch backed away in a startle as soon as she laid her eyes upon Tarok who stood towering before her.
"Madam Cinzia, There is an orc!"
Imdiately the clan mbers inside the building rushed through their rooms with their weapons. Within a second Nix calmly walked to the front after Tarok moved out smoking his cigarette.
"Nix? What the hell happened?"
Cinzia said ogling at his injuries.
"Yeah? This is Tarok, he'll be one of our clan mbers from here on."
Nix said, puffing his smoke after taking his seat on the couch.
"My liege's wives are beautiful!"
Tarok said, glancing at three won of the clan Yuko, Cinzia, and Camila.
'Damn this dumbass kid...'
Nis mumbled inwardly with a smirk and glanced at his won whose faces were flushed red. At least Yuko controlled her embarrassed face since she was quite the mature woman.
Reegan walked and sat next to Nix.
"Buddy, where the hell did you find him?"
"Yeah, man? I bought him from a slave rchant."
"I see..."
Reegan said and turned towards Tarok and patted him.
"Awrr! Tarok will kill a puny human!" As he scowled at Reegan, In a re second Reegan pulled out his dagger and got ready to pounce on him.
"Is that so? Co at ."
Nix sighed and said. "Hah, man you really gotta start a fight ?" Staring at Reegan and drifting his gaze towards Tarok.
"Tarok, stop it."
Yuko began to nurse Nix with her healing after with so necessary equipnt.
"Lord Nix, I hope you don't take wrong but, please try to restrain yourself from getting into trouble often."
'Damn... Her milf vibes are sothing else.'
He muttered while gazing at her defenseless bosom that was slightly sagged yet, firm at the sa ti. He didn't give a damn about the awkward gazes he was getting. His gaze even made Yuko get shy and adjust her clothes with a flushed face.
Protecting his won is considered as one of his responsibilities. It'd be his weakness and his strength. It could make a man surpass himself and provide her safety but, the problem arises only when he is not there to protect.
"Sure miss Yuko." He replied.
Anyway, he now possesses a powerful slave who might grow more at a threatening rate. In order to maintain a hierarchy, he'd also be pushed to grow more. His plan on collecting mbers has also significantly progressed well. All that's left for him now is to train his skills to go hunting beasts to level up.
"Boss, it seems there is a soldier from the palace."
Gunther said walking into the clan house. He was the one that's guarding the clan house according to the shift basis.
Nix just gave a slight nod and a soldier from the palace walked in with an envelope in his hand.
"Sir, The administrator wanted you to keep this confidential. May I take my leave now?"He said after giving the envelope.
"Yeah fine..." He nodded his head and took the envelope.
"Alright.."
Nix said and went back to his room and opened the envelope.
{Lord of the Transgressor, Firstly I congratulate you for successfully finishing the assassination...}
He abruptly stopped reading it in a stupor and thought. 'That mission was given by the royal council? They are trying to induce war ?'
Nevertheless, he continued reading it.
{Wondering why we did so? Because if you were to think about over city's economic rate and other things we had a bit of lower standing than Ferandel. It was a threat to the city as people began leaving due to unemploynt and the economical imbalance and inflation.}
'Indeed the economy is in a ss'
He muttered and continued to read further.
{Even the traders began to trade with Ferandel because of Havenkat as such we couldn't stay silent. He was the executive of the economical departnt in the royal council as you already know. Above all else, he was a talented lad in business. with the people taking refuge and other things to take care of. Our executive of trading requested the assassination regardless of the risk. We didn't possess soone of your hidden identity.}
{Also we got to know that you've finished the request handed over to Requiem with their assistance. Anyway, now coming to the main thing. Our royal council has decided to give you a position. You can now take requests from the city's people. Could we say you can do business with people to investigate and assassinate for commission? Anything you can na as a unique task force like RIT and Patrol departnt.}
'So they are trying to hire ? This is fucking bull shit But, Should I take this chance... I can't believe that king for sure though. I'd rather be a lion's head instead of a cat's tail.'
{This is a reward for your excellent service. But you'd have to take commands from the royal council regardless of your standing. You'll be given a handful of weekly pay of a thousand Gold coins.}
'That's four thousand coins per month. That's a shitty business proposal to accept. I'd rather be independent. Can use it for a side hustle or a passive inco though..."
He thought scratching his chin.
Now all that's left was Nix to get his mind right and make a choice. He was not naive nor ignorant like his beginning stages he was just calculating if It'd be better thinking about both the good and bad. Should he work under soone and do his bidding or walk his own path? Was a question that erged inside him.
