"Control"

I didn't sleep long.

It was no longer raining, and we drove on calmly.

Ahead of them was the old man's carriage and the cocoon cart.

We heard the neighing of horses and the shouts of men.

Suddenly the carriage stopped, and we had to slow down as well.

The two men we saw at the auction jumped out of the carriage.

Limus was ready to kill them, but they didn't come out because of us.

It was dark and I couldn't see anything, but my servant could see perfectly well.

"What is it?"

- A group of people, about 20 people.

Similar to the insects that attacked you during your stay on the plain.

- Robber ambush

- That's right.

"Are those two coping?"

- Yes, although…

There are a couple of strong men among the robbers.

Should I help them?

"No, we'll wait until they die, wait until the old man's carriage is destroyed, and then, like heroes, we'll save the old man at the very last moment, earn his respect, and then we'll be done."

In the meantime, get in the shade, I want to watch this massacre.

"As you say, my Lord."

Limus turned to slime and dove into my shadow.

I settled back and watched.

Night vision obtained from Limus, perfectly copes with its task.

The old man's men were not simple, but the robbers were not as weak as they had been on the plain.

In the end, the bandits prevailed.

They broke down the carriage door and threw the old man out.

He tried to get up, but a powerful blow under the stomach, did not leave him a chance to escape.

Now, as it should be, we will go out and make the enemies eat the earth.

I opened the carriage door and jumped out.

"It's a beautiful night, isn't it, gentlemen?"

The robbers turned to look at me, and one of them came up to me.

"The prey goes down your throat."

Ha-ha-ha.

Others joined in the laughter.

You're shivering all over, I guess it's getting wet in your pants, ha-ha-ha.

- Neat.

"What are you mumbling about, brat?"

He took a step toward me and took me by the throat.

- Great.

- Mm?

I opened the roots, and one of them entered his brain through his nostril.

He was kicking for a long time.

I fell to the ground under the guise of death.

Now that bag of meat and bones wrapped in leather is at my mercy.

He went back to his own people, he called everyone to him, allegedly found a bag of coins.

"Hey, you piece of shit, you said you found the gold."

And the robber under my command got roots in all directions, which paralyzed the others.

After that, I stood up.

They were completely subject to my will.

Well, I don't need such weak wars.

- Die

"Yes, our lord

They stabbed themselves to death.

After that, I went to the old man, since he was unconscious at that moment and did not see the horror.

Limus get out, let's get him in our carriage.

We picked him up and dragged him along.

I sat him down and gave him a bream.

The old man jumped.

- Beautiful bream, refreshing isn't it.

"What happened, why I'm here."

"You were attacked by bandits, your men are dead, and your carriage is broken.

You are alive only because of me

"A cart?" Is the cart intact?"??

- yes.

"Thank you for saving me, how much do you want?"

"I'll collect the debt later."

Where were you going?" We'll help you get there.

- To the magic academy "Dragon's Will"

I leaned out of the window.

"We're going to the Dragon's Will Magic Academy."

Limus you will drive the cart, this gentleman's coachman has been killed.

"As you command."

We were left alone with the old man.

"I'd like to know the name of my savior."

"Sive Peregrine."

"You can call me Maseyoshi

Let's get acquainted.

The old man leaned against the window and soon began to snore...
