Chapter 150:
Why?
________
'Vincent' with the girls beside him calmly strode towards city gates.
"Is that guy, Rhett, harmed any of you?" asked 'Vincent' without looking at them.
They all were his concubines, so he cared about them as much as if they were his main wives, but his feelings were much less towards them in comparison to his wives.
But this is something that could change with time and they know it.
"No, he's not, but…"
"But?"
"... He claimed us as his own the moment he saw us visiting his sect. He even ordered us to enter his chamber that night, but we left the sect right after the meeting was over. He said it as if there is no way we would decline this offer. He really didn't treat women as equals. I guess this is what the Trest family taught him," said Skylar as she walked beside him.
"I see," said Vincent, but then added: "How do you want me to end him or you wanna do it by yourself?" asked 'Vincent' calmly.
Skylar looked at him and a bright smile bloomed on her face.
"I really wanted to do it by myself back then, but… now I have a man, so, do whatever you want with him," said Skylar and then added more with a cruel smile: "But the more gruesome the better."
"Are you not worried about that Trest family's revenge?" suddenly asked Demi as her pointed elven ears slightly moved each time 'Vincent' talked. Even though 'Vincent' looks different under this simple illusion, his voice was the same, and she liked to hear it.
"You know how many 4th rank mages the Trest family have?" asked 'Vincent' as they almost reached the city gates.
"If I'm not wrong, they have only a few 3rd rank mages, but that's all," answered Skylar wondering.
'Vincent' nodded.
"Also, do you know where their family's headquarters are located?" asked again 'Vincent'.
"Yes, I do, but why do you- Oh… Now you are really evil, Vincent. Do you want to slaughter his entire family?" Skylar's eyes slightly widen from his words.
"Only those at 5 years of age and older. Those 4 years and younger I will not touch. Since the family raised such a person like Rhett, then the entire family is the same and needs to be gotten rid of after Rhett's death," answered 'Vincent' as they arrived at Terek city gates.
Four guards were standing in front of the gates. They all released the aura of 1st rank mage. They all wore metallic armor which was a defensive type of magic equipment that contained 2nd rank earth stones given by the city defense minister to protect the gates. They could not take them away by any excuse. These tools are quite expensive and almost unaffordable for 1st rank mages. Only city guards could use them on patrol time.
'Vincent' and the company almost walked through the gate but were stopped by one of the guards.
"Stop! Where do you think you're going? Give your name, and your purpose in the city and pay a fee of 1 silver coin for 1 person, first before entering the city, or show some documents if you are a citizen in this city. If not, then get the fuck out of here, but those women must stay for further… inspection. Especially that elf girl. And why is she without a collar? They should know their place or they become too arrogant and begin to bring problems," exclaimed the 1st guard orderly as he surveyed 'Vincent' and then gave a lustful glance at the trio of girls with him.
'Vincent' calmly looked at the guard without saying a word.
"What are you looking at? Moron, didn't you hear what he said?" joined the 2nd guard angrily.
'Vincent' slightly shook his head and said calmly:
"Is this your first time seeing a group of beautiful women? Didn't your parents teach you the basics of manners when you talk to strangers such as «Treat others the way you want them to treat you», no? You didn't even know me, nor them. Are you not afraid that I will make you pay for your words?" said 'Vincent' as he calmly stood in front of two guards.
"What this idiot just said?" answered the first guard.
"Commander, I think he wanted to break the law by threatening the city guards," added the 2nd guard smirking.
"Yes, I think so too. And the punishment for it is for us to choose," answered the commander and took out his magic sword of the same quality as the armor.
The other two guards also moved forward.
They all took out their weapons and encircled 'Vincent', Demi, Skylar, and Selena while behind them Jessica with others looked at this scene in wonder about what will happen next.
"Humans are so disgusting… Some of them of course," said Demi as she surveyed them.
She was sickened by how much scum they had met in this short period.
"Surrender and come with us or else we will deal with you accordingly," urged the city guards' commander.
'Vincent' released a calm sigh before taking a deep breath.
"Scum is always a scum. Do you think that your tools will be of use here? Do you think that the city lord will come here to help you? Do you think your position allows you to do whatever you want?" said 'Vincent' calmly.
The guard commander felt that something was not right here.
This man is not afraid of them which should not be possible since even a 3rd rank mage should be wary of facing 4 of them at the same time with such equipment on them.
'Just another arrogant psycho who wants to impress his women, nothing more.'
"Listen to my command! He broke the city's law by threatening the city guard. Kill him on the spot and capture his companions for further interrogation!" ordered the commander to the other 3 guards.
"Yes~!"
They answered in unison and slowly started to walk to 'Vincent'.
Vincent shook his head at himself.
Why has he even decided to talk with them?
'Just go to hell where you belong,' said in his mind 'Vincent' before flicking his finger behind his back.
