Getting Tested by His Master
"Uncle Drew, let's go," Kent said, jumping into the cart.
In the end, the bandits knew nothing. According to Orlan, who sang like a bird when Kent's sword was at his dick, a man occasionally came to assign them tasks. Once the jobs were completed, he would return with their payment.
It was the same man who had placed the kill order on Kent. The bandits didn't know who he was or where he came from—they only cared about the money.
Kent killed Orlan afterward and confiscated their assets before leaving. Although the Tower managed to connect the dots, linking the bandits to three noble families, it was clear they were merely pawns.
Kent didn't have time for that. As the disciple of a powerful Saintess, he knew the Alderford family wouldn't be in any danger. After all, he planned to use them to get rich—and who wouldn't want to ensure their future money mill was well-protected?
Soon, they left the Old Mines and headed back to the mansion.
