Chapter 119: Bandits and Thieves
Aeris casted a defensive spell from behind Shin and Rumeya as they headed towards the bandits, just in case.
The bandits were in a panic as they came at them with no questions asked.
“What! Hey guys!”
“Oh, no!”
The bandits attacked the two.
But they were no match for Rumeya and Shin.
They were blown away by Rumeya’s shield, kicked off by Shin’s body art and as he watched his men get knocked down, as quickly as he could, the leader of the group slashed at Shin, stopping him in his tracks.
“Oh, it looks like I’ll do it a little.”
Shin caught the sword and leaped up, then flipped his body and mowed down the leader’s legs with a spinning kick, flipping him over.
The leader fell and hit his head on the ground, knocking him out.
The rest of the bandits were stunned when the leader was hit.
In their panic, they quickly dropped their weapons and surrendered.
“No, please don’t kill us!”
The bandits began to beg for their lives.
“You’d better learn from this and stop acting like bandits.”
Tauro, who had been watching from behind, stepped forward and said,
“The rumors about you are starting to spread to the neighboring villages. For now, they are tolerating you, but if you go any further, you may become a target for subjugation. If that happens, you’re done for. Please stop before that happens.”
Tauro tried to convince all the bandits.
The bandits groaned.
They probably hadn’t imagined it would be that important.
“Okay, okay. We don’t want to be destroyed either!”
“Rumor has it that you are from a nearby mountain village. Why do you do this?”
“They know that much about us!”
The bandits were once again stunned, they thought they were doing well.
“We’re from a nearby mountain village, just like you said. We’re having trouble making ends meet this year due to a poor harvest in our small fields and difficulties hunting. So Bandi, who fainted there, suggested that we do it.”
Shin poked the unconscious leader, Bandi and woke him up.
“What…? Where am I…?”
When he realized that Shin had a sword pointed at him, he began to beg for his life, asking for help.
“You’re the main culprit, aren’t you? Don’t you have something to say before you beg for your life?”
Tauro asked him to reflect.
Although Tauro was a child, the leader of the bandits was taken in by his atmosphere.
Actually, Tauro used the skill “prestige”.
It was a very powerful tool against weak or weakened opponents.
“I’m sorry! I’ll never do it again!”
Bandi apologized after being taken aback by Tauro’s skill.
“We’re in the middle of a job, so we don’t have time to worry about you. We’ll come back here after work and we’ll talk again. I’ll give you some money to live on for the time being, so please don’t ever do anything like this again.”
Tauro then pulled out a leather bag of money from the “magic storage” and handed it to Bandi.
“Huh?”
The weight of the leather bag and the unexpected turn of events had Bandi and the others baffled.
“ Oh, I’m not giving you it, I’m lending it. I’m not that good-natured either. So, please use it properly for the benefit of everyone in the mountain village. I’ll check back on my way home.”
With that, Tauro nodded to the coachman and the carriage began to move.
Aeris and the others started walking along with it.
“Ah, uh… Um…, thank you!”
Bandi and the others all bowed their heads.
They continued to wave their hands until they could no longer see Tauro and the others leaving.
“You’re too much of a softie. You should lend money to people who can repay it.”
Aeris lectured on with a smile.
“I told you. I’ll stop by the mountain village on the way back and we’ll talk about repayment.”
Tauro gave her a look that said it was obvious.
“Eh!? Are you really going to collect? What! I was admiring your good points.”
Aeris was taken aback by Tauro’s reply.
Leada, who had been listening to the conversation from the carriage, came out and said
“I’m sure that Tauro-san intends to offer his wisdom for the future of the mountain village. That’s why he didn’t indulge them, but lent them the money.”
She was very perceptive.
“You are very perceptive. Well, we’ll have to wait and see what happens in the mountain village, but it would be nice if we could get something for the village on our way to O’circus.”
Tauro was impressed by Leada’s reading.
