Chapter-29: The Mindset of a Psychopath

After laughing for a bit, he continued," He then led you through our predetermined path. But our initial plan was to lead you to the left path."

"You know what..... There is even stronger team than us on the way out of the forest."

"They were the ones who should be ambushing you right now but who could have thought that you sick people would take the right path. Don't you know that this path leads to the Shadowsmokes mountain range. But you fools still took this path." The man sighed.

"Thank god our leader prepared a second Ambush in the right path too. If not, you guys would have escaped and it would have been a pain in the ass to find you worthless mortals again."

"But i should be happy insted. Now after we kill you 5 last people, we can get a lot of rewards. Hahahahaha." The man said with a huge but malicious smile on his face. All the assassins laughed in mockery.

Ashmus, Eira and the girl were so shocked that they didn't even speak for a long time.

They didn't think that from the very beginning,they were being played by the enemy. They felt like they are in a cage right now.

Ashmus was infuriated so much that he thought he would ne driven crazy.

Then he looked at kenzo, who was still looking at his feet, and roared at him," You fucker..... How coward can you possibly be to not tell us about their plans. If you had told us before, we could have avoided this calamity and so many of our people wouldn't have died."

Kenzo got angered by his words and raised his head and said, looking right into his eyes," Ashmus, what would we have done even if i told about their plans. What could we possibly do with our weak strength."

"Even if we had prepared ourselves to confront them, we would have died even sooner." He said while giving a ugly smile.

"Since everyone in our village is going to die. I should be the one who has to live, then i will pass down the name of our village to my future generations. That way, our village would not have been wiped out." He laughed in a crazy manner.

Ash was speechless when he heard his crazy reasoning. He knew that he couldn't say anything to this maniac to change his mindset.

"You..... Where did you develope that hypocritical mindset. Have you always been this deranged from birth." Ash asked to the still laughing Kenzo.

When kenzo heard his words, he suddenly stopped laughing and looked at him with wide eyes.

He didn't think that Ashmus would figure out the deepest secret of his family. His father also told him that there was something wrong with his head.

Since his father was the best physician of the village, he tried all sorts of ways to treat his mental illness. But he couldn't do anything about it.

As he kept trying all sorts of things, he felt that his son was getting more and more crazy, so he had to stop his treatment. He was helpless and sad, that he couldn't cure his son's craziness.

But since he was the only son of him, he loved him greatly and he didn't want anyone else to find out about his problems.

So Kenzo was never allowed to make any friends in the village. Even though he didn't have any friends, he was always happy because his father accompanied him every time.

Kenzo also loved his father greatly. He felt that his father was his only family. That's why he agreed to the plans because he didn't have any belonging to the village people.

As long as he could save his father, he could sacrifice everyone in the village.

But everyone in the village had respected his father. And his father has grown up in the village. If he knows that it was because of his own son that the villagers had to die tragically, he would be extremely angry.

So he felt a little guilty when he thought what he had done to the villagers. That's why, he wasn't going to tell his father about betraying the village.

And when Ashmus called him deranged, he was extremely displeased. Only his father was allowed to all him names.

Even though he knew that something is wrong with his brain, he didn't want anyone else, who is not his father, to insult him about it.

"How.....How dare you say that to me? There is nothing wrong with my head." He roared at Ashmus in anger. He was angered so much by a single word that his entire face turned red.

When Ashmus saw his exaggerated reaction, he instantly knew that what he guessed was true. This young man really was crazy in his head.

He felt helpless that he couldn't say anything to a mental person. He would react to every word he would say.

Suddenly, Ashmus thought about another thing and his brows furrowed," So, what about the villagers who were poisoned. Did you also..." Ash asked him about what was on his mind.

He didn't finish his words because he got a feeling that what he is thinking right now is 100% true.

Kenzo didn't say anything and lowered his head with that same guilty look on his face.

Ash was annoyed when he saw that he once again lowered his head.

It was the lecherous man who answered his question," Hahahahaha. That is right. He was the one who had poisoned the villagers."

"The pale yellow power could be turned into a poison when you mix another secret component in it. We had given him the component secretary when you were fighting with our assassins."

"And when no one was paying attention, we had someone give him the component and told him to mix it in the powder. We had to do this because of our oath to the inner demons."

"The pale yellow powder was actually the antidote for the light gray coloured smoke. But after we mix the secret component in it, it will turn in to a deadly poison. Hahahahaha."

"He had to find a chance to mix the component but who could have thought that you would give him the yellow powder bottle yourself. You once again played with our script extremely well. Hahahaha..." When the lecherous man finished his words, sll the assassins on the place laughed loudly.

Ashmus's face turned red from anger and embarrassment. He didn't think that it was because of him that the villagers had died.

If he hadn't asked him to treat the villagers, they would still be alive right now.
