Bab 21: Farce, and the Unlucky Blake
Editor: Atlas Studios
At the same time, he heard Alpha and Delta's voices.
"My lord, I can really work. I'm much more useful than Delta."
"Go away. I was the one who asked first, my lord. I only want to help you with odd jobs, nothing else."
"So am I, my lord. I just wanted to follow you around and help you with your business."
"…"
Their conversation drifted into Blake's ears. His eyes were wide, bloodshot. His lips trembled, and his whole face was red.
T-Those two b*stards!
Blake cursed Alpha and Delta inwardly. His heart was filled with anger. The two of them actually respected the enemy so much while he had collapsed to the ground.
In his anger, the wound acted up again, causing him to feel a piercing pain. The heart-wrenching pain penetrated his heart.
But strangely, no one noticed Blake's movement.
Under Alpha and Delta's words, Blake's wound acted up because he was too angry. The intense pain made him lose consciousness. His eyes turned white and he fainted. No one noticed him even after he fainted.
A moment later, Blake woke up again. But upon hearing the two of them continuing to flatter Ronald, Blake's sudden outburst of anger triggered his wound, and he felt a sharp pain. Unable to bear it, he fainted again.
Poor Blake. No one even noticed when he woke up and fainted.
"That's enough, you two," Gina said, her pretty face showing some impatience. "You don't find it embarrassing, but I do."
"Of course you're not ashamed. You're a woman. You're definitely not nervous. We're different." Delta glanced at Gina and said with jealousy.
"That's right, that's right. Woman!" Alpha was also a little jealous.
"You two!" Gina put a hand on her forehead. She felt like her intelligence was being pulled down. But then again, being this lord's servant seemed pretty good.
Ptui, ptui, ptui! How am I even feeling happy? But honestly, this lord is kinda attractive. Not only does he have such terrifying swordsmanship, but his healing technique is also so brilliant. It's normal for me to be tempted.
No, why would I be interested? This must be an illusion!
Her face turned slightly red as she floated in the air. She covered her face shyly.
Alpha and Delta looked at each other and said at the same time, "See, women change their attitude faster than flipping a book!"
Until now, their thoughts were completely different from normal people. However, Ronald did not care too much about it.
He walked over to Blake and kicked him with his foot. "It's time to wake up, Blake. With your monstrous constitution, this little injury is nothing."
"Huh?" Blake woke up again. He opened his eyes and looked around in confusion.
At that instant, he collected his thoughts and recalled everything that had happened.
Just as he was about to look angrily at the Alpha and Delta, the first thing he saw was Ronald standing before him.
"Y-You," Blake said, his voice hoarse with fear.
"Since you're awake, I'll repeat the condition I mentioned just now. You have to listen carefully. If you violate it, my sword will not deviate from your heart next time."
Ronald looked at Blake and smiled meaningfully.
Hearing that, Blake was a little terrified. He felt that his heart was getting colder and colder.
Having been hit by Ronald's slash, he knew very well its destructive power.
It wasn't just his own body that was pierced through, even the massive castle was struck.
"S-Speak," Blake said nervously, taking a deep breath.
"Firstly, I want half of your territory. That's the condition I've made since the beginning. Secondly, I need some managers for such a big territory.
"Among them will be Gina and Sword Demon, temporarily placed in my territory and will listen to my orders. Thirdly, no one is allowed to enter my territory. Those who disobey will be executed!
"On the fourth point, I need to build a castle where you guys can operate the whole thing. What I want to see is a fine castle, not a stowaway house."
"…"
"That's all for now. If I think of any more, I will continue to add," said Ronald calmly as he sat in his chair.
On the floor, the blood had dried up. It was all from Blake, covering the entire hall.
Such a large amount of blood, if it was an ordinary person, they would have died long ago. However, Blake, a high-class Mage, so he was naturally extraordinary. Not only did he not die, but he also recovered very quickly, as if nothing had happened.
Different constitutions and bloodlines naturally brought different potential. Blake's original bloodline was extraordinary, so his healing power was many times stronger than ordinary people.
The injury caused by Ronald's slash had gradually healed after he had been treated.
This was the benefit of having a strong constitution! No matter how terrifying the injuries were, once treated, his body would rapidly recover without any hidden dangers.
After Ronald finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
Gina, Alpha, and Delta didn't dare make a sound. In this situation, they didn't even have the right to speak.
"All right, then. Those are the conditions I have." Ronald looked at Blake and glanced at the three of them as well. He slowly extended his hands and asked calmly, "Next, it's time for you to express your stance. May I ask who among you agrees and who disagrees?"
The empty hall was silent. The pressure from Ronald was so great that they could not breathe. Although there were no threatening words, no one dared to retort.
The destructive power of Ronald's slash was still vivid in his mind, and the hole in the ceiling was the proof.
