Chapter 37

The slave merchants started to fall back .

However, because of the huge rocks that were behind them, they didn’t have anywhere else to move .

‘Damn . As he picked a place that was good to hide ourselves…… . ’

They fell in their own trap .

They bit their lower lips and exchanged glances .

‘If we can’t escape, then we can only fight . ’

‘They are 2, and we are 11 . ’

‘On top of that, they are real greenhorns!’

The class 5 adjutant badge bothered them, but objectively thinking, it wasn’t a situation where they should be afraid .

They brought their hands to their waists as if they had all agreed to it beforehand .

Srung .

A well polished blade appeared along the noise of unsheathing .

The slave merchants started to walk towards Roan and Pierce .

But only one, Norman, was still standing on his place not knowing what to do .

‘Tha… . that guy isn’t simply a greenhorn soldier . ’

He brought up the memories of Steve getting done by helplessly .

‘His spear skills aren’t normal . ’

His eyes trembled .

Looking at that Norman, the slave merchants clicked their tongues .

“That dumbass . He’s such a scaredy cat . ”

“For that bastard to be working as a slave merchant . Tch tch tch . ”

They looked at Roan and Pierce and cursed him .

“Look greenhorn . What? You said that we were pieces of trash?”

“It seems that you are out of your minds . You are two and we are eleven . ”

Bloodthirst could be sensed on their voices .

Roan smiled faintly and grabbed his spear .

“How fortunate . ”

At those words, the slave merchants frowned .

“What? What is fortunate?”

Roan just charged to the front instead of replying .

Pat!

A sharp sound .

The spear separated the wind .

“Hup!”

The slave merchants gulped in some air at the sudden attack .

They tried to quickly dodge it, but the spear was much faster .

Stab .

The spear stabbed the neck just like that .

A fast attack without even a hint of hesitation .

“For opposing me roughly just like I wanted . ”

Bang .

The slave merchant that had his neck pierced fell down .

“Thi, this damned!”

“This son of a bitch!”

The other slave merchants charged in late while cursing .

The sharp blades came in by the sides .

Roan twisted his arms so it got crossed, and after grabbing his spear he turned his body .

Pruuuuu!

As he twisted his crossed wrists, the spear started to spin quickly .

Roan lowered his head at the incoming blades and spinned the spear to the back side of his head .

Cheng! Checheng! Cheng!

The blade of the slave merchants got hit by the spear and bounced back .

“Kugh!”

“Damn . ”

Curses spewing out instinctively .

But even so, they weren’t on a situation where they could curse freely .

Pat!

It was because Pierce stabbed his spear to the sides of the bastards .

Stab .

“Kugh!”

Another one fell nully .

“Son of bitches!”

The other slave merchants swung their blades while gritting their teeth .

‘I have to get closer . If I do, I will have a chance . ’

The spear was a long distance weapon .

If they got really close to them, they wouldn’t be able to do much .

“Uaaaaaaa!”

“Die!”

The bastards yelled and jumped in closer to Roan and Pierce .

“Hmph!”

At that sight, Roan and Pierce snorted and pulled their spears .

Spat!

The spear slipped smoothly while running through the palm .

Roan and Pierce gripped the spear shortly and rose it close to their chests .

At the same time, they put the spear on their armpits .

Thanks to that, the end part of the spear that should keep shaking because of the weight balance, received a lot of strength .

Cheng! Checheng!

Roan and Pierce swung the spear on their armpits and the blades of the slave merchants off got bounced off .

“Im, impossible!”

“Damn it!”

Expressions they couldn’t believe and perplexed voices .

In the first place, they weren’t even opponents for Roan and Pierce .

Then, Roan and Pierce exchanged glances and slightly nodded .

At the same time the spun their body to opposite sides .

Spat!

The long spear that was at the back part cut through the air and hit the sides of the slave merchants .

Puk!

“Kugh!”

“Kugh!”

They got done by helplessly at the sudden attacks .

At the pain they felt of cutting their breathing, they held their sides .

Roan and Pierce didn’t miss this opportunity .

The sharp spear cut through the space and danced .

Stab .

The spear pierced through the necks of the merchants .

In an instant, 8 died and only 2 remained .

Even counting Norman that was far away, they were only 3 .

Pierce’s spear drew an arc and moved softly .

Then, the two slave merchants threw their blades away and kneeled down .

“Uhhhhh . We, we surrender! Surrender!”

“We will give ourselves!”

Their shoulders that trembled pitifully while even lowering their heads .

Tuk .

Pierce changed the trajectory of the spear and put it up behind him .

A soft and perfect finishing touch .

“Trash like bastards . You will pay for your sins . ”

A cold voice .

“Yes . Yes . We will receive whatever punishment . ”

“We are indeed trash . We are trash . ”

The slave merchants lowered their heads .

A pitiful look whoever saw it .

But on the lowered heads, there was a chilly and nasty smile .

‘Son of a bitch . I can’t end it like this . ’

His hand that was gripping the earth, slowly moved towards his talon .

He grabbed the blade with the tip of his fingers .

Pierce smiled towards Roan brightly even without knowing of this situation .

“Sir adjutant Roan . I’m finishe… . . ”

When he talked up to that point .

“Die!”

The guys that were on the ground grabbed their blades and stood up .

Even if it was Pierce, that had outstanding talent, it was a difficult situation .

Then, a sharp noise hit their ears .

Sweeee!

Puk!

The thing that cut the air and smashed the head of them was Roan’s spear .

“Hup . ”

Pierce gulped in some air .

The blade of the bastards were already touching his side .

If it wasn’t for Roan, it would have gotten sliced off .

‘It was dangerous . ’

Roan took in a deep breath .

Thanks to Kalian’s tear, he could see the movements of the slave merchants slowly and clearly .

He had thrown his spear even before the blade got unsheathed .

‘If it wasn’t for Kalian’s tear, i would have lost Pierce . ’

Roan let out a sigh of relief and moved and grabbed his spear .

As he put strength on his wrist, the spear that had pierced the heads got pulled out .

“Pierce . ”

“Yes? Yes . Sir adjutant . ”

Pierce lowered his head with a half absent minded expression .

Roan hit his shoulder and smiled faintly .

“You can’t show your back thoughtlessly on a battlefield . And can’t even trust your enemies easily . Understood?”

“Yes, yes . I understand . ”

Pierce got ahold of himself late and nodded .

He was the best spearman in history but right now he was no different to a greenhorn soldier .

He still lacked real experience .

‘If he keeps roaming the battlefield, it will be something he solves by his own . ’

There was no way to feel that bothered by it .

Roan swung his spear and turned his head .

Now, only Roan remained .

“Huh?”

The eyes of Roan and Pierce got big .

It’s because an unexpected scene had occurred .

“I, I really surrender . In the first place, I was planning to give myself in . ”

Norman pleaded while being on the floor .

The surprising thing was his look .

The weird thing right now was that he wasn’t putting on any clothes .

“I don’t have any blades or weapons on me . Look . ”

Norman raised his two hands .

The reason why he suddenly undressed .

It was because he was scared if they would get suspicious for nothing because of the action of the others .

Roan smiled bitterly and shook his head .

‘Even so, I was planning on letting one live . ’

There may be other slave merchants .

‘If I inquiry this one and the guy we tied and left on the forest, it will be enough . ’

Especially on Norman’s case, they felt that he will be really useful as he was a scaredy cat .

Then, they saw Chris that was hiding on the grass .

“Ah…… . ”

He looked at the corpses of the slave merchants and let out a low exclamation .

‘They really got rid of 11 people just by themselves?’

He viewed Roan and Pierce as amazing .

‘Well, he would have climbed to be an adjutant at this young age because he has the skills . ’

Chris sight remained on Roan .

‘A right nature and outstanding skills . He will certainly become someone big . ’

Then, Roan’s voice was heard .

“Shall we look for the account book for now?”

“Ah, yes . ”

Chris got a hold of himself late and moved his feet .

Then, Norman that was kneeling down while being undressed, looked on his clothes and took out a black account book .

“It, it’s here . ”

He lent it down with his two hands while not being able to raise his head .

Chris received the account book and checked the contents of it thoroughly .

A surprised look could be seen on Roan’s face .

“Do you know how to read?”

At those words, Chris laughed awkwardly and shook his head .

“A little bit . There are more words I don’t know about . ”

Roan still had a surprised expression .

‘A normal person at this age knows how to read?’

It wasn’t an easy thing .

And because of that, Aaron and the staff of the 7th corps got surprised big way .

Roan asked carefully .

“If it doesn’t bother you, may I ask you how you learned to read?”

At those words, Chris replied as if it didn’t bother him .

“I bought books while I made money and read it . At first, I didn’t know anything but as I kept on reading, I could see some letters . Well, I also asked to people I had some relation and learned that way . ”

“Incredible . The cost of the books wouldn’t have been low . ”

“Yes . Because of that, my dream of running a travel agency is getting pushed back . ”

Chris let out a low sigh and shook his head .

Then, his finger that was checking on the contents of the books, stopped .

“I found it . ”

A smile appeared on his face .

He had discovered the name of the daughter of the countryside couple on the corner of the book .

“She got sold to a millionaire on the region . ”

Roan checked on the contents and nodded .

“It’s the region of Dellon . ”

At that instant, Chris put a surprised expression .

“Huh? Sir adjutant also knows how to read?”

“Yes . I also learnt by asking people I had some relation with . ”

“Ah……”

Chris let out a low exclamation again .

‘He looks even younger than me, but he also knows how to read . ’

Then, Roan smiled faintly and pointed at the account book .

“May I take this account book with me?”

“Yes? Why this… . . ”

“It’s because of the people that got caught and sold off by the slave merchants . I have to return them to their homes, to where they originally were . ”

“Ah……”

Chris shook his head and gave him the account book .

Anyways, he couldn’t rescue everyone by himself .

‘I can’t trust on the kingdoms men but I can trust this person . ’

Chris looked at Roan with eyes filled trust .

Roan looked at the contents of the book for a moment and shrugged his shoulder .

“Then, shall we return to our headquarters?”

Soon, the sunset had disappeared and darkness fell on the plains .

However even on that darkness Roan’s Pierce’s and Chris’s eyes shone brightly .

*****

First, Roan put Norman and Steve on the prison of the headquarters and went with Gale .

Gale listened to the story about JoyLuce’s group and went to the corps headquarters with the account book .

And of course, he didn’t forget to congratulate Pierce and Chris before that .

Roan and Pierce brought Chris to the infirmary and after healing his injuries they slept for a night .

As the day brightened, the three people ate a simple breakfast and went towards the entrance of Beno castle .

“Yesterday, and today I received a really big help . I will never forget this grace and remember it . ”

Chris bent his head towards Roan and Pierce .

“Then, I will be going . ”

A farewell .

Then, Roan took out a pouch that seemed rather heavy from his chest .

“Take it . ”

“What’s this?”

Chris didn’t receive it and asked carefully .

Roan smiled faintly and replied .

“It’s the reward . ”

“Ah…… . ”

There was a not low wanted reward on JoyLuce’s slave merchants .

Chris shook his head .

“It was you who caught them . ”

“If it wasn’t for you, it would have been impossible . ”

Roan forcefully gave him the pocket .

“Thanks to you we were able to save the innocent people . It’s true that it was thanks to you . ”

“Ah… . . ”

Chris hesitated for a moment and lowered his head .

“It wasn’t enough with having saved my life, but you also give me the reward . I’m really thankful . ”

A trembling voice .

He truly felt thankful towards Roan and Pierce .

‘Later on, if there’s something I can help with, I will do it . ’

If he received some grace, he would certainly pay it back .

That was Chris’s temperament .

“Then, where are you going now?”

As Roan asked, Chris replied while smiling brightly .

“First, I’m planning on looking for the countryside couple . ”

It was decided the daughter of the old couple was going to be rescued by rose troop .

Because of that, Chris could lift a weight from his heart .

“And I will have to return to Miller kingdom . ”

He looked at the reward pocket .

‘The reward was 200 pres . ’

The salary of a normal person for a year was about exactly 200 pres .

It was more amazing than you could think .

‘If it’s this…… . ’

It was enough to run a small travelling agency .

“With that much, you will be able to run a small travelling agency . ”

At Roan’s words, Chris smiled shyly and nodded .

Roan and Chris had conversed plentifully last night .

‘He did say that his dream was to run a travel agency . But…… . . ’

He bit his lower lip .

Roan knew what talent Chris had and on what field .

If it came to this I want to awaken his talent early .

‘And if I can work with him, all the way better . ’

He looked at Chris’s eyes fixedly .

“Mister Chris . Can I give you a proposal?”

“Of course . If it’s a proposal of sir adjutant Roan, it’s always welcomed . ”

At those words, Roan said in a voice so low it seemed that he was whispering .

“I realized an important truth while working as an adjutant for the kingdom . ”

A moment’s silence .

Chris also gulped dry saliva unconsciously .

Roan smiled brightly and continued saying .

“And that’s the strength information has . ”
