Quinton " That wench.... really has some good contacts.... but it doesn't mean...I forgive you.... I told you that...it was better doing it all once... but you didn't listen to me..... because of that I have to.... use my given power now... only might can rule everything.... to teach them that...I have to kill many now... and I am starting with you..." He said snapping his fingers.
Just like that skeleton started stabbing him to death.
Quilt " AAAHHH!!" He yelled in pain.
I narrowed my eyes.
Xiona " H..HOW CAN YOU DO THIS TO... YOUR OWN FLESH AND BLOOD?!!" She said with anger.
Quinton" Believe me... I have done more than that... to secure my position in the house.... and I WILL DO MORE TO BE A BARON! NO MATTER...IF THEY WERE MY FAMILY...OR FRIENDS..."
Usman" Even your wife." I said cutting his words.
Gasps!
Quinton" So, you found out.... you are really skilled for your age.... I wish I had my son like that..." He said looking at his dead son.
Xiona" Y... you mean... you killed... mother." She said stuttering.
Quinton" Yes... I will kill anyone who... come in the way of my dream... that's why... you and your accomplices will die today." He said snapping his fingers.
Both zombie and skeleton moved. Zombie was going to attack Ufia and Firuza. I blew it away with two consecutive shots of arrows. Meanwhile, Xiona was being pushed back and knocked prone. I tukked my bow and using my enhanced movement, I blocked it's strike with my swords.
I pushed it back and X slashed it downward. Then, I X slashed it upwards and he lost his sword. I decapitated it with an upper horizontal slash. It fell down and turned to dust.
Quinton " YOU...DOG... HOW MUCH MONEY... THAT WENCH PROMISED... YOU! I WILL GIVE.... YOU DOUBLE... NO TRIPLE...IF YOU CUT DOWN EVERY...."
I cut his words by chipping his left cheek with an arrow, I took out after putting my swords back. Everyone was surprised?
Usman " Unlike other mercenaries, I am someone who stick to his words till death." I said taking another arrow.
Quinton" A.. mercenary... with conscious?!.." He said surprised.
Xiona" Because not everyone is like a scumbag like you. Don't kill him, he's mine." She said looking towards him then me.
Usman" Only if you don't hesitates." I said looking at her.
Xiona" I won't." She said taking out her rapier and moving towards him.
Xiona " Now, I will avenge my mother." She said and started stabbing him to death.
I put my arrow back and tukked my bow.
???" Now what?"
???" Who will be the lord?"
Usman" Are you seriously going to wait for a new dictator to be sent by your Viscountess of a witch." I said looking at them.
???" Do we have a choice?"
Usman " Are you people blind? They are in front of you." I said gesturing towards Xiona and Ufia.
Usman " I saw, how much respect she has for you. So, do you also respect her the same?" I asked them.
???" We do but she isn't heir."
Usman " Really? She is the only current member of house of Mahogany. So, who will oppose her?" I inquired.
???" He's right! SHE CAN BE ONE!"
???" But isn't she young and weak?"
Usman ' There's always people like this.'
Usman " It's true she's young and weak. She might not well versed in lordly matters. But you have someone who can help her. Ufia. She's your trusted Regent for years. She can teach her. As for her strength, she didn't train that much before due to some trash. But now, she can." I said again.
Ufia, who was standing with Firuza. She came to Xiona, held her hand.
Ufia " He's right. I can help her in administration and she can be trained effectively now. So, let's make her our lady." She said.
Xiona looked at her and everyone.
???" Yeah! Let's do it."
???" Yeah! "
???" Xiona! Xiona! Xiona!"
Xiona took a deep breath.
Xiona" Alright! From this day, I will work for prosperity of denizens of Pure Jack. We will not obey the witch and that's why prices of everything will be restored from now!" She said raising her hand.
???" OOOOHHHH!!!"
After that I went to Firuza.
Usman" I am going to Tavern to rest."
Firuza " Oh, okay." She said.
I went to my room and after projecting alarm.
Usman ' Luminous.'
