Chapter 20 - CHAPTER 19 : NO WAY OUT

"Greetings to you Mr.Huck Satchertz. Hope you are feeling fine" said the cloaked individual with a large grin on his face. Hearing the deep voice of the cloaked individual, Sir Huck started shivering as he felt a large amount of pressure on his body. He lifted his head and looked at the cloaked individual with eyes full of fear

"A....A...Am...all...ok. Wh..what about...y..you" said the fat Huck while stuttering. Sweat was seen dropping down his forehead to the floors. The sweat falling to the floor was already forming a small puddle on the floor

"Why are you feeling so tense Mr.Huck the fatty, i won't do anything to you. Infact not immediately.... Hahahahahah" said the cloaked man and laughed with his deep voice resounding in the room

Hearing all this, Huck the fatty froze instantly and his breath became rough as his lungs was out of enough oxygen. He opened his mouth to get some air which regulated his breath and moistened his already dried mouth. Looking at all this with a grin on his face, the cloacked man licked his lips with his long tongue as some kind of maniac thirsty for blood.

"Ohh..m..makes me...g..glad to hear that" said Huck the fatty while stuttering. Seeing the fear on Huck the fatty's face, the cloaked individual grinned more and more. He liked when people feared him. For him it is the best of the sensation when all what people have about you in mind is fear

"Just relax Mr.Huck the fatty. As i said i won't kill you now but later. But before i kill you, i will need you to carry out a favor for me" The cloaked man said as he walke toward Huck the fatty and massaged his shoulder to make him feel more better and relax for a while.

As Huch the fatty felt the hands of the cloaked individual touch his shoulders, shivers were sent down his spine from his shoulders. He started shivering and his breathing became rough ones again. He open his mouth to reach for oxygen and supply his lungs which were already in lack of good amount of oxygen

After Huck the fatty gained some oxygen with his breathe returning to normal, he looked at the cloacked man at the corner of his eyes. It directly made contact with those of the cloaked man which was dark with red pupils.

Seeing this, Huck immediately turned his head back and looked on the floor. Sweat rolling down his forehead and falling to the floor. Huck the fatty was sweating buckets as someone who ran several kilimetres before stopping for a moment. He gulped saliva down his throat.

"What does he want again. Am tired of taking part in their diabolic plans. If any of the other continent knows about it, i will be executed instantly. Why did i even accept to ally myself to them in the first place, is it because my continent is the smallest? Am just a little coward which they saw not being able to resist their wrath and now i will have to always help them in any thing they implicate me in"

Huck the fatty said all of tjhis in thought. He couldn't dare speak those words out loud if he still wants to live. It was clear that he didn't want to help them as he say and only dead will help him. But the issue is that he was afraid of dieing, so he has no choice than to hear what the cloaked individual want and help him out

"W..what can i h..help..help you in" said Huck the fatty while stuttering and looking at the floor

Seeing that Huck the fatty finally relaxed and decided to talk, it meant that Huck decided to help him out in anything that he will ask "I will need you to help us get the purple crystals from Barthratz. You know the purple crytals from there are the richest with mana and we actually need it in a very large amount. They are a great boost for us all and if we don't get them in the next weeks, our great king will be very angry and will have to come here personally to kill you"

As the cloaked individual said those last word, Huck the fatty's eyes widened as he thought of their king coming to kill him if he failed in his task. Already visualising what will happen to him, Huck's breathing became rough by the moment

His mouth opened for oxygen supply but there was no way. His mind was just resounding on the last two words "kill you"

These words were what he feared the most in his life. He then calmed down but still shivering, he looked at the cloaked individual behind him and gulped some saliva down his throat

"H...he...he will come personally...to..to kill...kill...kill me?" said Huck the fatty while stuttering

"Yes and you know it is not a joke right" said the cloaked individual with a large grin on his face "Make sure to succeed in your task for you to stay alive and continue ruling this place. But if you fail in your task, i will personally kill your wife and children then our great king will take care of you"

As Huck the fatty heard that his family will also be killed, shivers were sent down his spine as his whole body started shivering instantly while his breathing became rough and sweat rolling from his forehead and falling to the ground

"You are left with just three week Mr.Fatty. I will be back here in three weeks with my men to collect the crystals and make me go back with a very large amount or else" the cloaked man said as he left from behind Huck and started walking slowly away "And don't forget this, you have only two option:succeed and live happily with your family or you fail and get killed including you family. But if i was you,i will prefer the first option. Hahahahahahhahahaha" the cloaked man said while his deep laughter resounded in the room. Then in a little instant, he disappeared in thin air leaving a scared Huck on his seat all alone in the room

"What should i do? Where will i get a large amount of those purple crystalls in three weeks. From the last updates, Vincent told me they were short on those crystals"

It was clear that Huck was in panic now as he walked in circles in the room with his whole body still shivering. He could bearly breath due to fear, Even after the cloaked man had gone, he was still not comfortable and was still thinking all that he was told by the cloaked man

He will have to find a huge amount of these crystals if he want to save his life and that of his family

He left the room after he calmed himself down and wiping the sweat on his foreheard. He acted as if nothing has happened and just went directly to work where he could have more time to think about the situation he was in by now

"There is no way out for me in this situation. The life of my family and i depends on Barthratz. If they don't get that purple crystal, i will have to say my goodbye to this cruel world" thought Huck

Reaching his work place, his driver opened the rear door for him as he walked out and immediately headed to his office. Sitting on his office chair, he immediately began to resume the situation he was in at the moment

But after sometimes of reflection, a knock was head on his door and he gave the permission for the individual behind the door to enter
