YM778.TV Chapter 176 - Mercy
Tristan certainly had the new girl to help, but more information from different sources would always be better.
"Alright, tell me what happened to the mines and tell me if you have any knowledge about the mayor\'s death."
The guy quickly spilled everything that he knew. He was tasked to check on the mines whenever he received reports from the workers. Therefore, the reason for him coming here.
"What is that orc lair? What are your plans with it?"
"I… I don\'t know, Lord... I really don\'t.."
Tristan\'s eyebrow rose when he heard Jim calling him lord. Well, he wasn\'t going to correct him though.
"Have you seen a female elf wandering around yesterday?"
Jim showed a confused expression for a moment before he realized what Tristan meant. "It wasn\'t me who was in charge of patrolling yesterday, Lord! It was the other golden adventurer called Myre but I don\'t think she saw anyone as there was no report."
Upon hearing information that essentially meant nothing, Tristan slowly became irritated. This bald guy was apparently just the muscle of the group, and definitely didn\'t have access to more important matters.
Jim noticed the change of Tristan\'s expression and panicked because of it. Therefore, he quickly told Tristan about the 40 adventurers who were also part of the operation. However, each person received different kinds of rewards from Connor, and that he was the mastermind of all.
Tristan clicked his tongue when he heard that. "Cih. That \'hero\'. So much for the title of hero."
When Tristan asked him about information of the mayor\'s death, Jim answered that he wasn\'t sure about it.
To make sure what Jim said was accurate, Tristan turned to the blood sealed archer and double checked the information. As a result, the two\'s information was pretty much the same, except the mayor\'s death.
Therefore, Jim had earned a death glare from Tristan, and with enough \'motivation\', he finally spoke everything he knew about the matter.
Jim was afraid talking about this matter because it involved in the death of a Mayor, which would automatically sentence to a death penalty when getting found out.
Fortunately, the man made the right decision when placed with options of death right now or later. He then began to tell Tristan that at the night when the mayor was murdered, the mayor was accompanied by their adventure group. And the last person they saw him meeting was, again, no other than Connor.
After asking a few more questions which answered with a shake of head, it seemed there was nothing else useful he could extract from this person other than his blood.
Now that Tristan had got what he wanted, he no longer needed two people. Between the two, it was obvious what his choice was. Tristan once again drew his sword.
The sight instantly terrified Jim and made him kneel on the ground, begging for his life.
"Please, have mercy!! I\'m also your subject, am I?" Jim desperately pleaded, which quickly turned into rebuke when he saw Tristan wasn\'t stopping. "Y-you.. What kind of mayor are you!!"
Tristan ignored the plea and approached him, squatting in front of the kneeling gold-level adventurer and whispered.
"I feel like rewarding you with freedom."
Tristan\'s words made Jim\'s face lit up. The hope of escaping alive elated him to no end. However, Tristan wasn\'t finished yet.
He stared at the kneeling man and plastered a wicked smile. "But first I want you to say this word three times.."
"Anything I\'ll say anything"
"Say.. clown clown clown.. Ooo yes and wuss."
Jim\'s face instantly turned pale. He was lost in words, unable to say anything.
"Hmm.. so quiet aren\'t you now?"
Splat!
A head flew to the air as Jim\'s body dropped to the ground. And just like that, a gold-level adventurer breathed his last. The next moment, Tristan used [Blood Extraction].
[A mix of 900 med quality blood were found]
[Extracting and filtering blood]
[270 Blood Essence gained]
"Not bad.. Not shabby at all." Tristan commented as he saw the amount of Blood Essence he gained from one corpse. It was the first time he extracted a gold adventurer, and the harvest didn\'t disappoint him.
As for the 10 silver adventurers, they gave him 30 to 50 Blood Essence each, which made his Blood Essence reserve increase by 690.
[Blood Essence : 6310]
Tristan had easily concluded the matter, but there were too many complicated matters still left in the dark and had to be handled.
Even so, his main concern at the moment was Serene\'s safety. Therefore, he told Chieng to once again track her, following the new clue they got.
Tristan would go search her himself if he could. However, he knew that these adventurer problems had to be quickly dealt with. Otherwise, they would go out of control. . He truly couldn\'t afford to leave the town with such conditions.
He then asked the newly blood sealed archer about the location of their base. Which turned out to be an inn situated just next to the Adventurer Guild in the middle of the town.
The idea of fighting 30 plus adventurers in the middle of the town might not be the best idea. But Tristan still decided to do so as he believed this matter must be solved swiftly and efficiently.
Without further ado, Tristan quickly went back to the town together with Herrera, while Chieng went for the task Tristan gave him. In order to be safe, he called out Gafez, the town guard and Seth who tag along under the same package.
An hour later, Tristan was already standing in front of the said inn. At this exact moment, Uriel was seen rushing from the street, approaching him with an anxious expression.
"Tristan, you hired me to give you advice." Uriel quickly said even though he was out of breath. "Therefore, I advise you not to do whatever you are planning to do. These people have very tight and good relations with the town. They might be unreasonable at times, but they were the town\'s heroes in time of need. Thus, I suggest to stop, whatever it is. Please, think it through!"
Hearing that, Tristan turned to Uriel and looked at the latter with a wicked smile as he said, "all the more reason to pull these thorns out of my town!"
