Chapter 75 : The tunnel A
few more minutes passed before I dared to creep closer, hoping to catch the conversation between Mayu and the rebels. I needed to know exactly what they were plotting."Madam Mayu, only a few of us could make it today," one of the rebels said. "The rest of our comrades are still recovering, so I left them behind.""That's fine," Mayu replied coldly. "It’s harder to stay hidden when a large group attacks anyway. Just ensure you know exactly what needs to be done.""Have no fear. We have long been masters of explosive magic spells."Mayu immediately handed over the heavy bag she was carrying. "Here are the firearms and supplies. There is also enough money inside to cover your expenses."My breath hitched as I watched Mayu hand over the fresh weapons and funding to the rebels. It hit me then—she was using her immense wealth and high status to bankroll the Golden Triangle.To me, what she was doing was fundamentally wrong. Supplying these people with lethal weapons would undoubtedly put
Chapter 74 The Disposable Pawn
Once again, I found myself adrift in that familiar, cosmic dimension, floating aimlessly within a vast, empty void."Here I am again," I muttered with a heavy sigh.I knew exactly why I was back in this place. I had failed to survive the attack yet again, and the Time Sword was doing everything in its power to keep me alive.Moments later, an overwhelming force violently pulled me into a blinding light. When I finally opened my eyes, I found myself inside the carriage, sitting across from the Mayor.I collapsed onto the seat, gasping frantically for air. My body felt utterly drained, and I could still feel the phantom, excruciating pain of Mayu stabbing me through the chest."Hey, Aren! What's wrong with you? Are you alright?" the Mayor asked, alarm written all over his face.Panic rippled through the carriage's occupants. They were completely at a loss as to what to do about my sudden collapse."My apologies, Mayor... I just suddenly felt incredibly ill," I managed to wheeze out."Go
Chapter 73 : The night battle
That night, it was my turn to guard the mansion. As part of my routine, I patrolled the entire perimeter every two hours.While I was out in the courtyard, I suddenly caught sight of someone dropping down into the grounds.I rushed over to investigate, drawing my sword and bracing myself for a fight."Stay right there, don't move!" I shouted.As the moonlight illuminated the intruder, I gasped."What? Miss Mayu?"I couldn't believe my eyes. Not only was she here, but I also noticed her arm was wounded and bleeding."You're hurt. What happened to you?" I asked.I reached out to check on her, but she aggressively slapped my hand away."Don't touch me! Get away!" she hissed.Startled by her fierce reaction, I instinctively took a step back. She began walking toward the mansion, ordering me to keep my mouth shut about what I had seen."Remember, you are just a servant here. If you want to keep your job, you'll do exactly as you're told," she added coldly.I could feel the sheer malice rad
Chapter 72 : The chief commander
The following day, security throughout the entire city hall was heavily reinforced to ensure the mayor's safety while the investigation was ongoing.As I stood guard just outside the door of the mayor's office, I saw Mayu step out, seemingly about to leave the premises."I need to talk to her."Feeling increasingly trapped by the demands of my job, I grew desperate for a word with her. Breaking protocol, I abandoned my post without permission and hurried after Mayu."Wait, Miss Mayu! Miss Mayu!"I bolted after her, catching up just before she reached the top of the stairs. I reached out and caught her by the shoulder to stop her, but to my utter shock, she violently brushed my hand away.It was then that I noticed the bandages and wounds dressing her arms and various parts of her body."What do you think you're doing?" she snapped."I'm sorry, but you've been ignoring all my calls," I explained defensively.Her brow furrowed in deep irritation as she began to reprimand me."I am under
Chapter 71 : The assassinations plans
The following day, the mayor called a meeting at his mansion to orchestrate a plan to capture the rebels who were continuously attempting to take his life."I can no longer remain silent! Those rebels have tried to assassinate me twice now!" he roared, slamming his fist onto the table in fury.He immediately ordered his subordinates to launch a thorough investigation into the recent ambush. "Why were there no police officers stationed in the area at that time? Mayu, are we lacking guards in the Upper Town?""My apologies, Uncle," Mayu replied, bowing her head deeply. "According to the logs, the assigned unit had just left to patrol the rest of the Upper Town. It was an unfortunate coincidence that they moved out just moments before the attack occurred." She quietly promised to tighten security moving forward."Those rebels are giving me a massive headache. I don't understand why you people can't seem to catch them!" the mayor snapped.Mayu explained that the rebels were agile, utilizi
Chapter 70: The hesitation.
The air grew thick with tension as we sensed enemies lying in wait. My fellow bodyguards immediately fanned out, forming a defensive perimeter around the Mayor.Seconds later, the ambush began. A hail of bullets rained down on us; we hadn’t expected them to be armed with firearms. Caught off guard, several of my comrades were struck and collapsed instantly. Those remaining quickly reacted, chanting in unison to conjure a magical shield around the entire carriage." Thats a level 4 Magic Barrier!"The bullets hammered against the shimmering wall but failed to pierce it. The barrier held firm until the attackers’ magazines ran dry.As the gunfire ceased, the rebels emerged from the surrounding buildings. Judging by their gear, they were exactly like the ones I had fought days ago—members of the Golden Triangle. It was clear that Mayu had sent them to finish off her uncle."This barrier only lasts three minutes!" Gilbert shouted. "Prepare to engage! Do not let them get near the Mayor!"T
