"Hurry up and look…That's a head!"
"This is bad! Guards, guards!”
The middle-aged man in charge of conscription thought that Setenda was going to bribe him. He did not expect a head to roll out and immediately fell to the ground in fear.
Several soldiers immediately stood up and surrounded Setenda with their spears pointed at him.
One of the voluptuous blonde women was leaning against the corner. She was slightly surprised to see Setenda's actions, but she was also interested.
Setenda only sneered and allowed the soldiers to point their spears at him without any nervousness. If he wanted to, these soldiers who dared to approach him would already be corpses lying on the ground.
"Hey, hey, isn't this the head of a wanted criminal? Why didn't they reward me, a hero, and instead pointed a gun at my head?”
"Don't move…you... You rude fellow."
The conscriptionist swallowed his saliva. After getting up, he took a few more glances at the head and scanned the various wanted posters hanging on the wall.
"Howl…He was indeed a wanted criminal…And the reward was 3000g! "The middle-aged man couldn't help but be surprised.
"Do you understand? If you know, then retreat."
Setenda swatted away a spear pointed at him, and his aura forced the soldiers in front of him to take a few steps back involuntarily.
"Just you wait. I'll go and ask my superiors…”
The middle-aged man ordered a soldier to clean up the head and left in a hurry. After a long time, someone else took over the recruitment work.
Soon, the man in charge of conscription returned and said to Setenda with a flattering expression,"Warrior, you were able to kill a wanted bandit. You are completely qualified to be the captain of a small imperial city. Please wait for good news.”
After filling out the conscription form, Setenda walked out of the barracks under the envious gazes of the people around him. Compared to the fact that most of them could only be first-class soldiers at the border to fight against the barbarians, being a team leader in the capital was a meteoric rise.
When Setenda walked out, the person in charge of the recruitment sneered in his heart. This hothead actually killed Huck without knowing that he was a hired thug of Minister Ernest. He would be in for it in the future.
Hey, little brother over there."
Setenda, who had walked out of the door, turned around and saw the blonde woman who had greeted him. Unsurprisingly, it was Leona.
This woman from the night raid probably had no good intentions. He just didn't know what she was planning.
"What's wrong? Big Sister, what's the matter? Don't tell me you're infatuated with me!"
Sethanda made his tone sound more arrogant, so that Leona would think that the person in front of him was as easy to fool as Tazmi.
"Little brother, the way you threw that head out was really scary. However, I have to tell you that the capital is not that simple.”
"What? I don't know what you're going to say at all?”
Setenda looked impatient, and Leona hurriedly explained,"Don't you know? The Hark you killed was actually related to some of the forces in the Imperial Capital, so making you the squad leader was probably just a cover.”
As expected, Setenda could no longer remain calm and revealed a surprised expression.""How did this happen? Isn't he just a thief?"
"The situation here is not known to people who have no connections ~ However, as long as you are willing to treat your sister to a drink, it doesn't matter if I tell you.”
"Oh…"
Setenda had no idea which tavern to go to and was half-forced to go by Leona.
When Leona started ordering food and wine to eat, Setenda could only watch from the side. After all, he should not be in the mood to eat now.
When it was almost dark, Leona burped in satisfaction. Under Setenda's urging, she said," That Huck is said to be the subordinate of the minister, Ernest. Occasionally, he would follow the orders of the minister to rob certain specific people. Don't tell anyone. Brat, you used Huck's head as a reward. I'm afraid you've already been targeted by the officials of Ornest.”
"Then what should I do…It's not easy for you to come to Hillford!"
Setenda slammed the table in a panic, as if he had suffered a huge blow.
"Generally speaking, in such a situation, we can only return to the countryside... But it's all thanks to you meeting me. Don't look at me like this. I'm also related to the army. Huck was just an insignificant pawn, there were many substitutes. If I go and help you resolve this matter, it doesn't matter.”
" Really?!"
"Of course…However…I need some money to clear the way."
Setenda hurriedly took out the bounty he had just received, as well as the money he had hidden in Salster. Is this enough? If it's not enough, I'll think of a way to get more.
Leona's eyelids twitched. She did not expect Setenda to have so many gold coins on him. She smiled as she snatched the gold bars and stuffed them into her voluptuous arms.
Leona felt a little apologetic when she saw Setenda staring at her with his blood boiling.
"Yes, it's not enough, but you owe me the rest.”
