"Once again, Master Wyatt. I am sorry that you feel that way." My words failed to provoke Aba. I had reasons for trying to provoke Ada. 

"Tsk…" I just clicked my tongue in annoyance. I decided to use actions where words failed to get a reaction. 

"Master Wyatt, then what would you have me do with them?" Aba finally bit the bait. 

"Me? If I were in your shoes, I would hand over the mercenary group to my demigod father so that he could get his money's worth. 

I am sure demigod Windsor has a way to make the unaffiliated members of your mercenary group cough up the resource they mooched off of him thanks to his ignorant daughter." Aba's mercenary group consisted of two types of members. The first group was the retainers of demigod Windsor who volunteered to join the mercenary group to look after their Princess's safety. The second group consisted of unaffiliated mercenaries who joined Aba's mercenary group based on the resources they were promised. 

If Aba were to disband the mercenary group Demigod Windsor's retainers would return to him but the unaffiliated mercenaries who joined Aba's mercenary group would be let off scot-free even though they had been using Demigod Windsor's name and resources to nurture themselves. This was a huge loss for Demigod Windsor but he was willing to bear it as long as his daughter got something to learn from this ordeal. 

"Hand the mercenary group to my father?" Aba asked 

"Yes. Don't disband the mercenary group, you change the leader. And leave it to demigod Windsor to get moochers to pay their bills with hard labor. Those members of your mercenary group may undermine your authority since you are not the real demigod but things will be different when the real demigod takes the leadership of the mercenary group." I explained to Aba that the people of her mercenary group may disregard her orders but that would not be the same for demigod Windsor so it would be best for her to shift the leadership of her mercenary group to her father instead of disbanding it. 

"Your words make sense and I also want to teach those assholes a lesson. So I will do as you say." Aba has been the biggest sucker as the leader of the wolf fang mercenary group. She tried to gain the trust and friendship of her mercenary group members by providing them with everything they asked for but in return, all she got was disappointment and betrayal. 

Earlier Aba thought that she would buy them with more resources but now she knows she was wrong, those people were just assholes that wanted to take advantage of her naivety. Now it was time for some payback. Her father was the best candidate to achieve that.

"Now that you are not disbanding your mercenary group, how about undertaking your first and last mission as the leader of the wolf fang mercenary group?" I advised Aba. 

"First and last mission as the leader of the wolf fang mercenary group? What do you mean by that?" Aba asked in confusion, she didn't understand.

"Wolf fang mercenary group leader I have a mission for your mercenary group if you choose to accept." This is the reason I was provoking Aba by trying to stop her from disbanding her mercenary group.

"Master Wyatt, you don't have to take pity on me and go out of your way to cheer me up." Aba thought I was not being serious and was saying this stuff to cheer her up. But that wasn't the case. I was dead serious. 

"Leader Aba, I am being serious. If you choose to accept the mission I will go into detail about the mission." I said sternly trying to express that I was dead serious. 

"I accept, I accept. Why not." Realizing that I was being serious Aba hurriedly accepted my mission without requiring the details or the rewards. 

"Thank you—" I was about to explain the mission I wanted to task wolf fang mercenary with but was interrupted by Agatha. 

"Princess, you cannot hastily accept the mission without knowing the mission details and rewards." Agatha reminded Aba but she was late. 

"Mercenary Leader Aba has already accepted the mission. I hope you will not go back on your words." I didn't have enough money on me to hire card emperors so I had to resort to tricks. Let's hope me trying to butter up Aba by calling her mercenary leader works.

"No, I will not. As a matter of fact, since this is my first mission and also a mission from my benefactor I will undertake this for one medium grade soul jade. Does that work for you master Wyatt?" Aba asked with great enthusiasm. One medium-grade soul jade to hire a mercenary group of card emperor realm could be considered dirt cheap. So I didn't complain and gratefully accepted it, " Yes, that works for me mercenary leader Aba." 

"Master Wyatt, please tell details of the mission," Aba asked. The excitement in her voice could be heard loud and clear. 

"Yesterday, my cousin, who is studying in the southern academic city, was taken hostage by Burger Bob's goons against his will. I sent my men to retrieve him but they failed miserably. Almost all of them died except three who remained." I narrated. 

While I was listening to Aba narrate her story addressing herself in the third person I got a message notification from Van. The group that left to retrieve Ronnie finally contacted me. They were unable to contact me so far because they had fallen into the Burger Bob's goon's trap. 

The Burger Bob's goons had caught Van's informant and knew that Van's team was coming to rescue Ronnie so they laid a trap for them. But the enemy didn't know the ruthlessness of the sinner squad, who detonated their calamity daughter gem to buy a way for Van and his remaining team to escape.
