Betrayal washed over Xaviers face once more.

Ah, good. Then I have no more need to talk to you.

.

In fact, even if someone found out, they wouldnt believe a common kidnapper could kill all the elites of the Scales.

I, I have a lot of money kept in a steel vault! Its my personal money, unrelated to the Scales! If you spare me, Ill give you all of it! I have over a thousand gold coins in storage!

That is a tempting offer.

Ians gaze turned to Xaviers bound hands.

He forcibly pulled off the thick ring on his middle finger.

Is this the key to that?

!

Xaviers eyes widened, as if wondering how a bumpkin like Ian would know that.

Ian smiled.

I may find this money useful when I eventually go to the Empire.

B, But I have to go there myself to-

Youll willingly hand it over regardless. Ill just take a commission of three-tenths. Am I wrong?

Xavier froze. Ian dangled the ring and looked back at Charlotte.

You take care of the interest.

!

He has a son, so finish it off where he cant be seen.

Her eyes widened for a moment.

Then she subtly curled her lips and looked down at Xavier.

Xavier swallowed hard.

Cha, Charlotte. Wait, listen to me-

Charlotte gripped Xaviers babbling face and dragged him away.

A rather simple fellow.

Thinking that, Ian turned his body nonchalantly.

Now all the trackers pursuing them were dealt with.

No one would be chasing them anymore.

I even collected a sort of bonus.

Ian put the ring into his inner dimension.

Over a thousand gold coins. Even after taking a commission, it was an enormous sum.

Ill be sitting on a money cushion when I get to the Empire.

As he returned to the campfire, Ian frowned at the gazes of Miguel and Luci.

What.

Whats to become of that human, did you not intend to kill him after all?

I did. And I won.

He had expended an enormous amount of ability points in the process, though.

Ian licked his lips briefly. New novel chapters are published on

He had no regrets about his decision, but

He had taken a few more steps down the path of villainy once again.

Now he would likely be stronger than most knights. His second highest ability after spirit may soon become strength rather than intelligence.

Not to mention his agility was no joke either, only lower than strength.

If obeying orders by fighting is what it takes, youd be leading an army by now, I reckon

Its from getting her tail cut off.

Her tail?

Turning away, Charlotte sat down behind Ian.

Exchanging a look with Luci, Miguel casually shrugged.

Having seen all sorts of bizarre things by now, he seemed to have already adapted.

Then shall we get ready to depart again?

Eventually, Miguel added,

As long as youre feeling alright.

Ian gestured at him.

Youre the only one that matters.

Which is why Im saying lets go.

You want to leave already?

My arms cut off, not my legs. My bodys a little sore, but not enough to stop me from moving.

Grunting, Miguel stood up and immediately added,

It should be enough. I can drive the carriage with one hand, so lets go. We cant spend another night here, can we?

Lets rest one more day. Theres no one chasing us anymore, right? If your wounds get worse on the way, thatll be a bigger problem.

Luci objected.

Ian nodded.

That makes sense. We cant afford to have you killed over on the road.

See, I said Im fine

So you just navigate from the back.

Huh? Then wholl drive the carriage?

Instead of answering, Ian looked back at Charlotte.

Charlottes eyes widened.

Her tail trembled violently.

You want me to be the driver?

You got it right. Miguel will navigate, so you drive the carriage as he says.

Charlottes gaze turned to Miguel.

Miguel showed his yellow teeth in a smile.

Lets do our best. Your name is Charlotte, isnt it?

This is damn it

Her ears twitching, Charlotte eventually got up and headed for the carriage.

It was an understandable reaction, having fallen from being a direct guard of an Imperial Master to a carriage driver.

But none of the group seemed to care.

The carriage colors killing me. Even the damn carriage is better quality in the Empire. Isnt that a travesty?

In the cargo hold of the black carriage.

Lying comfortably on a mat covered by a robe and cloak on the blood-stained floor, the reclined Miguel chuckled.

Ian was leaning against the chair Xavier had been sitting in.

Certainly more comfortable.

Checking Luci leaning on his shoulder, Miguel exchanged glances with Ian and smiled.

Looks like were ready to go. Tell her to turn the horses heads back to the main road since well be rejoining it, Charlotte.

Instead of replying, Charlotte growled lowly and cracked the reins.

The carriage cut across the ashen forest.

From then on, there were no more major conflicts.

After passing through the abandoned lands, the group safely entered the northern outskirts.
