Mission in another world with my transformed best friend

Chapter 264 The Revengeful Robbers (Part 1)

"In broad daylight, is this some kind of ghost sighting?"

After feeling no sensation of cutting anything, Ewan looked up and scanned the area in front of him. Apart from the trunk of the large tree, the figure from before seemed to have completely vanished.

"Wow, this kid!"

The shout came from behind, and Eun immediately turned around to see the shadow of the bandit who had just jumped out from the saddle of his warhorse...

"Hahaha, we got it! All the money's on this horse, we're rich!"

Wang Kai gripped the reins with one hand, patted the money bag on the saddle with the other, then squeezed the horse's belly with his legs. With a neigh, the horse shot off like an arrow, turning a corner and disappearing into the roadside bushes...

This sudden change, lasting less than ten seconds, happened before the entire cavalry unit, including Eun, could react.

Soon, realizing he had been tricked, several veins popped out on Eun's bald head.

Without saying a word, he walked over to a colleague, roughly pulled him off his horse, then mounted his horse and chased after him...

"You little bastard! You think you can 'steal a chicken' from me? You're still too green!"

……

Galloping wildly through the dense forest, in a straight line without changing direction, perhaps due to Wang Kai's poor riding skills, the distance between the two horses, which was less than two or three miles, was quickly closed.

Seeing that there were still about ten meters to go, Ewan didn't hesitate and freed one hand while mouthing the shape of a whistle...

"Shh~"

A whistle is a command to a warhorse.

Wang Kai's warhorse suddenly froze and reared up, its limbs taut and its hooves kicking up more than a meter of mud.

Fortunately, this wasn't the first time he'd encountered such a situation, and Wang Kai was prepared. Taking advantage of this "emergency braking," he quickly released the reins, throwing his body forward. After landing, he rolled around to relieve the inertia.

All of this was within Eun's calculations. After seeing his opponent thrown off his horse, he immediately freed one hand to take out his battle axe and aimed it at Wang Kai's head, who was still on the ground and hadn't had time to get up.

Two seconds later, this axe strike will be as easy as chopping a watermelon...

Just then, a burst of murderous intent erupted in the air, spreading out like a shockwave and enveloping the surrounding environment.

Having already experienced this kind of "playing trick," Ewan focused all his attention on Wang Kai. No matter what evasive move Wang Kai made next, his battle axe would follow instantly...

However, Wang Kai simply stood up slowly without moving an inch.

In his view, there was no need to dodge such a scoundrel who relied on his master's power.

"Take this!"

Accompanied by a murderous shout, the axe blade sliced ​​through the air as the warhorse charged and the arm swung, aiming for Wang Kai's upper body.

For Ewan, it was more like a gentle, swirling breeze brushing against his face.

Wang Kai's figure seemed to distort slightly when the axe blade was less than half a meter away from him.

That gentle breeze instantly transformed into a powerful force that locked onto Eun's wrist, gripping it tightly like an iron clamp.

With the sound of a wrist breaking, Eun, along with his armor, became a massive figure weighing nearly 200 pounds.

He was just "intercepted" and "pulled" off the horse like that...

It all happened so fast that Eun had no time to react.

When the excruciating pain of a broken bone shot through his wrist, the axe fell to the side.

As his legs went weak, he realized that Wang Kai was holding his wrist and "lifting" him up...

"You... wow!"

In his pain, Eun reflexively cursed.

Before he could finish speaking, a dark shadow attacked from below. When he realized it was a foot, a powerful force struck his chest.

The compressed air in his lungs made Eun stop talking instantly. After holding it in for a while, he finally spat out saliva with a few specks of blood.

"Ahem~ You brat... what exactly... do you want? Do you know my... identity..."

"I don't care who you are, all I know is that you're a piece of scum about to face 'judgment'!"

"Trial!?"

Yuen was panting heavily. With a broken wrist and a pneumothorax, he had completely lost his fighting ability. When he looked up and met Wang Kai's murderous eyes, he had a strange sense of déjà vu!

……

"That's you!"

A delicate, hate-filled voice rang out from the side. Ilya, who had been lying in ambush, lunged forward with a short sword in her hand, pointing it directly at Eun's neck.

Ewan used all his strength to dodge the attack, and shouted loudly after seeing who it was.

"What are you doing, you brat?"

"What are you doing? I'm going to kill you to avenge my parents!"

Ilya turned around and thrust her sword at him again, but fortunately Wang Kai blocked it...

"Wait, let's get him to confess first, after all, he has accomplices..."

Ilya managed to suppress the hatred that was about to erupt, but her teeth were still grinding together, and the joints in her small hands gripping the sword hilt were making a "crunching" sound.

Wang Kai kicked Ewan to the ground and asked.

"Don't think I don't know who you are. You're a heinous beast who burns, kills, robs, and tortures. Countless innocent people have lost their lives at your hands, haven't you!"

"Nonsense... I'm under the command of the Earth Hero..."

"Shut up! If you want to keep your dog's life, let's see if you'll give up your accomplices!"

"Accomplices!"

Ilya's hatred had reached its peak. Ignoring Wang Kai's attempts to stop her, she rushed forward, the tip of her sword pointed at Eun's throat.

"Tell me quickly! What did you do five years ago at that wooden cabin near the lake in the village near Dobo Town?!"

As the "hint" unlocked his memories, and seeing Ilya's face, Ewan seemed to recall something...

"Is that the orc couple hiding on the edge of the village? Hahaha... The way that woman begged us to spare her husband, and the way she kept screaming while we pinned her down, it was really... Ugh!"

Perhaps Eun hasn't yet emerged from the halo of "the brave never give up," and without thinking, blurted out the heinous acts that he considered "glorious history."

But as Ilya's sword slashed a bloody gash across his face, and blood gushed out, Eun suddenly shut his mouth.

At this moment, Ewen is like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered on a chopping board.

Realizing it was "revenge," Eun, despite the excruciating pain, still felt a sliver of fear. He knew that if he revealed the identity of his former accomplices, Ilya would surely stab him in the throat with her next sword.

Now, choosing to remain silent and stall for time, waiting for their subordinates to catch up, is the only chance of survival...

"Hmph, even if you apologize for what I did back then, you probably still won't let me off the hook, will you..."

"Enough talk, the other two... their names!"

"Hehe, I'll definitely tell you, but even if I do, you won't let me off the hook, right?"

"you!"

"How about I make a suggestion? Let me go back first, then we can arrange a time and place. I'll have my men bring you the notes with the other two names on them, and then..."

……

Looking into Eun's eyes, which concealed his will to survive, and his feigned expression of fear, I could see the fear in them.

Wang Kai realized that this "scumbag," who had committed so many crimes deserving of death dozens of times, had already become indifferent to life and death.

So Wang Kai put aside the last trace of guilt in his heart, slowly walked to the side of the warhorse, mounted it, and coldly uttered a sentence.

“A sinner beyond redemption… You heartless bastard, I know you're waiting for your subordinates to come and rescue you. Sorry, I'll cut off your only escape route right now… Ilya, this scum is yours to deal with!”

"Okay... thank you!"
