"Hawk Reed, are you willing to be my Slave?"
Countless questions appeared in Hawk's mind, but the first and the most prominent one was,
Who the hell is this person?
However, before he could ponder much about the things, Alger's angry voice sounded.
"What the hell are you thinking about? Answer the damn question! Do you even know who the master is!? You are making him wait!"
'Master?'
A new thought appeared inside Hawk's mind. He already knew that there was someone powerful who supported Marquees Alger from the shadows. Is this person sent by them? That is the only reason Alger will respect him so much.
He then glanced at the masked man who looked more like an assassin but did not think too much about it.
"Hawk Reed, are you willing to be my Slave?"
Not willing to wait any longer, Nux questioned again. This time, his tone was stricter.
'Is he asking me to work for him? Hmm, that's a weird way to put it… Well, whatever.'
"Yes"
As soon as Hawk replied, he felt a peculiar energy entering his body. He then frowned and thought about what this energy was before he glanced at Nux. He did not what it was, but from the timing, he was sure that it has something to do with Nux.
"You don't have to think too much about it, just be loyal to me and everything will be fine"
However, rather than explaining, Nux turned around and left.
…
Nux did the same thing with some other high ranking members of the Bannermane Army, and while he was at it, he questioned.
"Alger, do you have any enemy amongst the nobles? A Marquees or a higher rank would be better. A person who will give his all to get rid of you.""Master, I recently made an enemy out of Marquees Longe. He will do anything he can to kill me, even if it costs him his title as noble"
Nux frowned, he had heard this name before he just did not remember where. However, he soon shrugged his shoulders in nonchalance, it wasn't important right now. He will think about it later.
"Why is he so adamant about killing you?"
"Well, I bribed his head guard and tried to kill his son in the bloodhill wilderness, but the boy was saved by someone and the Marquees learned about my plan.
"Ahh… so that's him"
Nux quickly realized why it sounded so familiar. He was the father of that boy he saved in the wilderness.
"That boy actually survived huh…"
"Master?"
"Nothing, let's just continue"
…
Two hours later, Nux prepared everything and his face turned solemn. It was now the time for the final step. Although he wasn't really scared, he still wanted his plan to succeed.
His gaze then moved in a certain direction as he then glanced at Alger, who nodded his head as well.
The two of them walked in a certain direction of the mansion, and then a wide, dark hallway appeared. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
It looked very spooky.
The further they walked, the darker it got, however, with his [Sense], Nux had no problem with his vision.
Alger has already told him that there are no guards here. It were the assassins who told him not to place any guards.
It affects their movement they say.
Soon, Nux and Alger appeared in front of a simple wooden door and the two of them nodded to each other.
*Bam*
Nux then wrapped his arm around Alger's neck before he kicked the door open and entered.
As soon as the door was slammed open, more than 20 assassins wearing skin-tight black clothes and masks appeared in front of Nux and Alger.
"Soldiers of Bannermane House, don't waste your life pointlessly and surrender. Your Marquees dared to try and harm our young master in the wilderness, he will have to pay.
But I know you are just soldiers and are innocent. I am a good man, surrender and I will let you live. However, I am warning you beforehand, don't try doing anything funny because you are already surrounded by our army.."
*Stomp* *Stomp* *Stomp*
"Hyaaaa!!"
As soon as he said that, countless stomps and soldiers' excited roars were heard, signalling that they were indeed surrounded.
'One', the leader of these assassins, looked at Nux with her icy blue eyes. She was quick to notice a few words he said.
First, he called them soldiers, not assassins. So most probably, the man does not know about the kingdom supporting them.
She then glanced at Alger and his mouth moved.
'I have a plan'
One's mouth twitched in frustration.
This man was using them to get rid of his enemies!
The thing about harming our young master, he must be talking about Marquees Longe's son. Then this must be a Marquees attack, and Alger knows that if he uses his army, the loss will be terrible. He was using them to avoid his loss.
However, she still did not understand one thing.
If they fight with these soldiers, the commotion will ensue, and after they win easily, the kingdom will learn about their strength, however, the names and cultivation of the soldiers they submitted weren't supposed to have this sort of strength…
This will put them under the eyes of the kingdom, and their movement will be severely restricted. What is this man thinking? Is he trying to betray the kingdom?
No, he cannot, he will be killed for betraying the SkyFall kingdom as well…
She then glanced at Alger and he repeated the same words he did before.
'Trust me, I have a plan'
