Chapter 20 Masochist
"Boss, are you really going to destroy the Anyu Gang?" Xiao Wei asked, his voice filled with uncertainty.
Luis simply nodded without giving any further explanation.
"Boss, I've heard rumors. The Anyu Gang might have the backing of one of the major families in the town."
"Do you know which family?" Luisquestioned after hearing there was someone behind Anyu Gang.
'It seems this is that kind of cliche plot that I read in novels.
"I don't know Boss. I overheard the dwarf talking about it, but he didn't mention any names."
As they talked, the sounds of screams echoed around the base. After a few more minutes, the screams stopped.
Arthur and the others arrived swiftly, standing behind Luis, awaiting the next order.
"Everyone stay hidden for now. John, you are the weakest among us all. You haven't awakened your life seed yet. You alone will capture the dwarf. Don't overdo it. Keep him alive."
-----
Man Ton, the dwarf squad leader, returned angrily after he didn't find anyone in the gambling house. All the treasure was also stolen cleanly, not leaving any valuables behind.
As he neared the stronghold, the thick scent of blood hit him. He was very familiar with this, as he kills people daily.
"Who dares attack my stronghold?" He growled, his mind filled with pure anger. Without hesitation, he rushed inside only to see the dead bodies of his followers.
"AHHH! You will all pay for this!"
Man Ton screamed, his anger uncontrollable. He sprinted from room to room, desperately searching for anyone to fight, but the stronghold was eerily empty.
He rushed towards the room where Xiao Wei was captured. He didn't find Xiao Wei here but saw the ropes on the floor that were cut.
"That kid escaped..." He kneeled to the ground and examined the rope. "It must be his men."
Suddenly, a whirling sound cut through the air.
"BANG!"
Man Ton's small build narrowly escaped the attack. He turned, his eyes burning with rage, and spotted John standing across from him, sword in hand.
"You were the one who slaughtered my followers." Man Ton angrily rushed towards John.
John didn't reply to the dwarf and blocked the attack.
He started attacking the dwarf with precise attacks. This dwarf, however, due to his small height, could dodge and attack from tricky angles.
"Stay still, you dwarf!"
"AHHHH, DONT CALL ME A DWARF."
Man Ton shouted with pure rage when he was called a dwarf. The mention of his height was his greatest trigger. He couldn't think anything except killing the guy in front of him now.
John smiled secretly when he saw this. His plan worked; now it will be much easier to capture the dwarf alive.
Man Ton jumped towards the face of John without organizing any defense. John took this opportunity and punched in the head of Man Ton.
He didn't use his sword because the young master order was to capture the dwarf alive. If the dwarf accidentally died, he couldn't forgive himself.
He wrapped his hand around the collar of the dwarf, smashing his body towards the ground. This guy really has rough skin. Only after smashing more dozens of times into the floor did he stop struggling and faint.
"It's done"
John then wrapped the dwarf body with the rope that was on the floor.
After John captured the dwarf, everyone walked out of their hidden place.
"This martial arts technique is really something."
"Yeah, but I think our life seed method is better. Didn't you see John had the upper hand the entire time?"
"Haha, he just made the dwarf angry and took advantage of it."
"Come on, if it were me, I'd have finished him in two moves."
"Pffft, you are one of the weakest of us all."
"...."
Everyone surrounded John and began talking amongst each other.
'Why do these guys narrate everything, like the lackey of villains in novels?' These kinds of things he had read in novels. He shook his head and put this thought behind his mind.
Luis walked in front of the dwarf and kicked him in the ribs. Despite, kicking the dwarf only stirred a little and didn't wake up.
"Dwarf, I know you're not unconscious. Wake Up"
"STOP. Don't call me a dwarf."
"Dwarf," Luis repeated with a smirk.
"You...."
Everyone laughed looking at Man Ton, who was so angry that his face turned red.
"Tell me which family is behind the Anyu Gang." Luis was questioned as his tone became serious.
"I won't tell you anything."
Luis kicked the dwarf in the stomach.
"My patience is limited; don't try to test it," Luis said with a cold voice.
"Haha, you won't get anything from me. If you want answers, find them yourself!" The dwarf began laughing despite being in pain.
Xiao Wei watched this and stepped forward.
"Boss, his mental condition is not right. He tortures people daily and takes pleasure from it," he said, pointing toward the head.
"I think his personality is totally distorted. He likes the torture even if it is inflicted on him."
Luis looked at the dwarf, and he was really smiling. 'A Masochist'
"He looks like a dwarf but doesn't have the dignity of one."
"Yeah, the dwarfs are stubborn, but they are honest too."
"..."
Without a word, Luis drew his sword and, in one swift motion, severed Man Ton's head. He had no interest in wasting time on a nuisance like this.
"Xiao Wei, tell me all the directions of Anyu Gang Stronghold."
Xiao Wei, who was secretly watching the exchange between 12 Robed men, stepped out. He hurriedly told all the directions of the stronghold.
"You twelve will be split into 2 squads; by the evening you must destroy 4 strongholds."
Luis, after getting all the information, gave the orders to the group.
They nodded and divided themselves into two squads. After becoming ready, they sneakingly walked outside, intending to destroy the Anyu Stronghold.
In the stronghold, only Luis and Xiao Wei were left.
"Do you know where the Treasury is?" Luis looked around and asked
"Boss, almost all the Gang members have their treasury deeper inside the building. I don't know the exact thing, but it must be the same here too."
Luis nodded and started searching for the treasure. He will not just kill and destroy the enemy; he will also fully empty everything, leaving nothing behind.
After a while of searching, he found a room that was locked. Breaking it, there were a lot of coins and weapons. He opened the vortex and teleported them back to his room.
After emptying everything, he walked out with Xiao Wei, intending to empty the other treasure houses of stronghold that his knights would destroy.
