Chapter 357 - 350: Clemen's Mansion 2
After they had rambled on for about a minute, Sam (Alex) decided that they couldn't settle things like this and took a step forward. As soon as he did that, several people stepped back on reflex as Sam advanced.
Persuading themselves that they were in an advantageous position, they started speaking again.
''W-What. Do you think you can be arrogant just because you have that fake? You're a weak brat. Don't piss off your seniors so much.''
Sam ignored the man; it's not only them that knows how to provoke others. He summoned his two knives.
The people in the surroundings watched with wide eyes as the knives appeared from nowhere. Not everyone has a space ring; this means this kid is not simple to have a space ring.
''It's troublesome to waste time here. Come.''
While saying that, he readied his knives.
Naturally, no one stepped towards Sam. No, instead, when the knives came out, they took some distance to surround him.
''…What's wrong? As expected, are you all just good at talking? Well, it can't be helped since you're all just small fry who are weaker than Goblins. However, then don't pretend to be humans, just go back to your dirty hideouts and tremble.''
It was an outright mockery. It was apparent that he was trying to provoke them, but unfortunately, only a few of the adventurers surrounding Sam noticed. The rest of them didn't understand what he was saying at first, but as soon as they realized, their faces went red as they glared at Sam, wanting to kill with their gazes. Still, no one was sure they could gain victory over Sam.
'Just a bit more.'
While watching the situation, Sam started to speak. Mio gave wry smiles behind him.
''What's wrong? Even with so many people, if you're still scared of me, why don't you just show your true feelings and submit to me? Then I might have some mercy. I might overlook this.''
While looking at the people around him, Sam said that with ridicule. It was the same thing one of them had previously said.
''Don't be stupid, you stupid brat! I'll show you what happens when you despise adults; I'll beat that into your body!''
One of the thugs met Sam's look and said that as he charged towards him with a knife.
Taking Sam's provocation, the thug thrust the knife in his hand. As he watched the movements of the thug, Sam sighed in his mind.
'There's no proper movements. He's just trying to stab his knife into the enemy; his actual movements are dull.'
''Too slow.''
Sam said before dodging the strike and struck the man in the neck.
Bam!
It was instant K.O.
Because both Stella and the Baron requested not to kill them, Sam opted for this solution.
As if it was the signal, both Mio and Elsa moved.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Bam! Bam!!!!
Under the dumbfounded gazes of the Baron and his guards slower to react, Sam's group incapacitated the thirty mix of thugs and low-ranked adventurers in five minutes.
''Aahhh! It hurts.''
''Ahhhh! My hand, it's broken.''
''What the hell?"
Fader almost peed in his pants; his knees gave up, he was shivering, Christof was a little better; however, he had no desire to go against those beasts; from their point of view, Sam, Mio, and Elsa were standing on top of a pile of corpses, horns on their heads laughing evilly. It was how much psychological damage their received after Sam's group dispatched thirty individuals with almost no effort.
Suddenly, Sam tilted his head to the side to dodge an arrow coming toward his head.
''No way.'' The hidden archer was gobsmacked.
Immediately after dodging the arrow, Sam threw a knife at the location where the arrow came from.
Puff! Bam!
The next moment, a thud was heard, and the consciousness faded away from the attack's impact. After the knife pierced his shoulder, disabling him, he fell shortly on the ground.
The front of Clemen's mansion was now wrapped in silence. The thugs and low-ranked adventurers lying on the ground, groaning, momentarily stopped; they forgot about their pains; they had no words to describe what they had seen.
If their surprise had ended up there, it would have been good; unfortunately, it was the case.
Mio moved, she executed a QuickDraw; it was so fast that none of those present except for Sam and Elsa had seen it; all they heard was a sound.
Whoosh!
After Mio executed a QuickDraw, a slash had flown out, cutting the branches of a large tree and dropping the second archer that was hiding there. With the reverse swing, she sent another slash that flew towards a window on the second floor where another archer was.
In the end, a slightly stronger adventurer that just came after hearing the commotion, it was a big man, was unexpectedly blasted away by Elsa's sword slash, destroying the mansion door as he smashed into it.
Gulp!
Everyone present except Sam's group gulped; even the Baron was not an exception. Finally, he understood why the famous Garan recommended this group; it should be said that Garan was a native of Elesim, so most residents know him.
Some people looked towards the big man, who had been blasted away. Until a few minutes ago, he had been wearing metal armor. But it was now crushed, and he was unconscious after smashing into the doors of the mansion. If he were still conscious, he would have experienced the suffering of hell with his rib fractures. It was then; they understood that they were lucky compared to that man, any resistance they might previously have disappeared like a cloud of smoke in the air.
''Mr. Clemens, you should let five of your knights here to secure these men.''
Sam pointed at the thugs and adventurers lying on the ground; although they do not wish to be caught, they knew any resistance was futile as they were incapacitated, not being able to move.
''E-En!"
The Baron nodded absentminded, still overwhelmed by the group strength.
''Let's go.''
After ensuring that those five knights were doing a proper job, Sam, Mio, Elsa, the Baron, and the remaining two knights entered the mansion. Time to wrap things once for good.
