I'm the King Of Technology

Chapter 1208 - Strange Mother-In-Law

Who? Who was it?

Number 5 and even the other ȧssassins suddenly jumped bloke cats who were pushed into water.

And soon, it didn't take long before they knew 'WHO' it was.

The person stepped in with both arms firmly placed behind his back and a cold smile on his face: "How dare you attack my family and my people?"

Instantly, the hostages opened their eyes in sheer joy and excitement.

Hahahahhaha!

His majesty Landon! It's really his majesty Landon!

Everyone felt gleeful, but Number 5 and the other ȧssassin thought that he was a joke instead.

Please! They didn't find any intimidating aura about him. At most, he just looked like an angry child. So what was there to be afraid of?

Their only worry right now was that since this person was here, then he might alert people to catch them, making things hard for them.

Thus, it looked like it was time to abort the mission.

Yes. It was best to report all that they knew about Lucy's situation and the death of their sisters. To them, Baymard wasn't dangerous. Just look at how they were begging other empires to look after them by signing treaties with them?

Tsk.

From the looks of things, it should be this Lucy who was the most dangerous entity here. Which once again proved that women were supreme!

They could've tried killing Lucy before fleeing. But with how much she knew, it was best to go back, regroup, and infiltrate Baymard again, but this time with hundreds of sisters.

They didn't believe that Lucy would be able to handle so many all at once. And that's why they would use this experience as a lesson and better prepare themselves for the future.

But of course, before leaving, if they could kill Landon, then all the better. But they wouldn't waste time on him.

If he dodges their attack, then he did have some skill. After all, men typically had some level of fighting skill... Although not superior to their witch sisters, in their opinion.

They decided that they would throw him just a single attack, and that was it.

Thinking like that, Number 5 and the other ȧssassin quickly shot the rest of their knives at Landon while fleeing the scene.

And Landon on the other hand, pretended to be inadequately skilled before picking one of the daggers and shooting it straight for the other ȧssassin.

"Ahhhhhhhhh!"

The ȧssassin dropped to the floor, but Number 5 dared not time around and began fleeing the scene as fast as she could.

No! She had to leave Baymard fast!

She had to get to Riverdale, meet up with the other scouts and flee through the other Baymardian territories, moving into Arcadina.

From there, she would board their ship docked on one of the Arcadinian coasts and head on back to Tenola.

Like so, Landon had secretly allowed Number 5 to flee after placing a tracker on her.

Heh. He would like to see where these so-called witches were staying.

Additionally, he wanted to know what their intentions for Lucy were.

.

They said she was their Chosen One.

But their actions and even the flames in their eyes say otherwise.

Landon had always trusted his gut feeling. So even now, he felt like they were definitely up to no good.

And what was up with their hate for men?

There were evil men in the world, just as much as there were evil women in the world too.

So why pick only one gender to hate?

Without a doubt, maybe millions of years ago, the whole organization probably started with a woman who got betrayed by a man. Or worse, a woman who wanted a married, affianced or promised man but failed to get him and ended up forming the group after contracting the famous princess illness.

Of course, there could be abuse or other factors in the mix.

But ever since he came to this world, both men and women have been crazy.

Do you know many women kill other women because other women just said hello to their crushes?

Not even a fiance but a crush.

Even his former stepmothers were all crazy as well.

But if you told them that they had a problem, they would say that you were the one talking nonsense. To them, love justified everything.

And in the end, they turned into psychos, blaming their current situation entirely on men.

Yes. Men did have their part to play. But sister, you aren't innocent either, you know?

Honestly, he was glad he didn't get reborn when Landon was still in the Barn palace.

Brothers scheming and trying to kill each other every day, wives killing, people constantly attacking nonstop... Oh my God! Didn't they ever take a break?

Monday, they wanted to kill you. Tuesday. Wednesday, Thursday like so for week after week after week.

Even cousins and unknown enemies could try entering the fight too.

One had to sleep with one eye open and pray to make it to ȧduŀthood.

Not to talk of how backward science, medicine and other fields were.

And because of this, prisons and all sorts of things should kill a man in a single whiff.

So no matter how one looked at it, hating a particular gender didn't make any sense.

The world was already rotten as it was, with countless plaguing organizations that needed cleaning up.

Now, with the tracker on Number 5, she should be able to lead him straight for the kill!

.

As for the other ȧssassin that he brutally injured, she would live. But as a prisoner.

While one tried to find her way home, why not start making this one talk?

Like so, Landon had a new plan on how to handle things from here.

But more imports you, he felt like he had to get to the bottom of Lucy's matter. 

Her mother.. His late mother-in-law.
