A pig life for Primogems

"I agree! I agree... I will give you as many as you want." Prostating on the floor, the Fatty was joyful when he heard my demand.

What the Imunlaukr clan lacks the least is Mora. They can buy as many as Primogems they want. However, the exchange is 1000 Mora per 1 gem.

"Oh, how much does your life cost?"

"1,000! No 10,000!!" The Fatty quickly replied.

"Do you think I'm a beggar huh?!" My voice deepened as I threatened this pig. Just looking at his snot-covered face is disgusting.

He could be a NTR ugly bastard character in some hentai. Just the thought of this trash trying to covet my woman is making me sick. The moment I saw this fat bastard, the gears on my head started running.

"Eiik!" His eyes rolled backward almost fainting.

"Y-Y-You! Don't hurt the y-y-young master. The Imunlaukr Clan will not forgive you!" The Fatso's subordinates tried to get up but their body was exhausted as their mind was struggling.

"Interesting. Your loyalties are admirable. Unfortunately, you made the wrong enemy. If you value this pig, go to your Clan and bring me 100,000 primogems in exchange for his life."

"D-Don't go too far. Taking a hostage in front of the Knight of Favonius." The subordinate tried to talk his way out.

"As far as I remember, the Knight of Favonius does not protect your families," I said with a big smile. Do you think I'm a fool? I would never do this without a plan.

Traitors as they are, they could live in Mondstadt but there was no clause, the Mondstadt would protect them from law. That is why, Lawrence and Imunlaukr suffered prejudice from the citizens. There were some cases, where people from Lawrence got stoned by kids or adults when walking down the streets.

This is why, the Lawrences were pretty seclusive. They did not fully reside in Mondstadt. Their main base was unknown to the public. Eula told me about it though.

The Fatso's subordinates went silent. He thought he could fool me. But I'm not stupid.

Inside Mondstadt, The Lawrence's and Imunlaukr's actions are pretty much under surveillance. This is why I'm confident in acting as a bully.

If this Fatso can get me what I needed, I won't have to be afraid of these people from Imunlaukr and Lawrence acting against me.

"What are you waiting for, go now. I will wait here with your pig master." I ordered the fatso's subordinates.

"B-B-But our young master!"

"There is no but, you are taking me for a fool huh? Do you think I will let this idiot go and expect you all to come back with my primogems? What am I a kid?" I retorted.

"Y-Yes!" The fatso's subordinates got afraid as he scrambled up his butt and ran away.

Looking down on the fatso's status. He just fainted with white eyes. While bubbling in his mouth.

I sensed someone approaching from behind. I turned around and saw Jean Gunnhildr clutching her forehead. "Ronan, doing this kind of thing in front of me, where did you get the courage?"

"Who knows," I replied subtly.

"It's regrettable that I can't throw you off the dungeon. But you're right, this is against my knighthood. But, I also cannot act against the law that I strictly follow. You're giving me a headache just after the catastrophic incident." Jean crossed her arms as she berated me. But she let out a heavy sigh yet again.

"I apologize for making you uncomfortable Master Jean. I don't want to make you feel bad but the situation was just too auspicious." I bowed my head a little and showed my heart-felt amend to her.

From the start when Eula describes those people from the Imunlaukr clan earlier. I already have come up with a plan, to lure Eula's fiance or Eleanor. Well, doesn't matter.

I thought he was a threat but it was just a pig.

If you think going against a rich family like the Imunlaukr clan is a stupid idea. Well, it is. However, in the end, they will become my enemy. Sooner or later we will cross the same road not peacefully.

"Can you at least give me a reason why I would let you go after this?" Jean has this personality that she can't just get rid of. She's too strict and lawful. She adheres to the rules more than anyone.

"You've said it yourself, Master Jean. This pig is not under Mondstadt laws. You can't protect him." I stare at her unwavering eyes.

"You're a traveler and not a citizen from Mondstadt. Being reckless will put you under scrutiny." Jean did not back off. She wants to punish me badly huh? How nice...

But.

"Master Jean, did you forget? I'm an Honorary Knight of Knight of Favonius." Smiling brilliantly I replied bluntly.

"You have a way with your words. You're smart and reckless. If you could apply your ability to something useful other than extorting someone, you'd be a great person."

"You're exaggerating Master Jean. I'm not great at all. I'm more of someone honest to his core. Some call me stupid or naive, etcetera. I can become something that I need, to protect those I love." Turning my head to Eula, Lisa, and Lumine. They are my responsibility the moment I laid my hands on them.

I wasn't lying, I can become anything. A coward, naive, An Idiot, a Fool to a ruthless, murderer, robber, scammer, rap*st, or anything vile and evil to protect those whom I love. People can hate for all I care, I don't need their shitty opinions.

Because in this life that I have. I don't want any regrets. Mistakes can be made anytime and it's hard to fix them, that's why we have to plan our actions. From small to big.

Cause I don't want to hear the word 'If'.

If I just did something, If we just did that, If only we could turn back time, and If we didn't make that decision. These are something that I'm afraid will happen. The 'If'.

Just like this fatso, if I did not make a move and let it happen. He will succeed in provoking Eula and she will do something crazy behind my back. It's not that don't trust her. It's how this world works I'm afraid of.

After all, this world is not just a game but a reality. A reality that I've seen many times.

I've seen corrupt officials use underhanded means to win. Human nature in this world is the same as in my world. Nothing has changed.

One looks and this fatso says it all. He did not even see Jean the moment he came here. His eyes locked onto Eula. Those disgusting eyes of this pig. He dared to look at Eula with those eyes. I will make him regret it.

Remember what I said? I'm a petty person.
