Fredrinn Firecrown: The Weakest Villain

Chapter 74: I Want to Claim My Horses!



Chapter 74: I Want to Claim My Horses!

The martial practitioners who surrendered were brought to the Firecrown Household's underground prison.

Fredrinn was in a great mood and he even helped the guards in sending the prisoners to their cells. 'We gained fifty war horses and we also obtained the items of the martial practitioners. The ten million star coins was just a bonus.' He thought with a cheerful smile.

Thinking about this, he glanced at Raphael who was leaning against the wall inside his cell. Fredrinn gave him a thumbs up. "Yo! If it weren't for you, half of my horses would have died! Tell me if there's anything you want."

Raphael turned his head, an annoyed look flashed in his eyes. "Fuck off!"

"So feisty!" Fredrinn chuckled.

Raphael ignored his teasing words and turned his back on him.

"How about we make a deal?" Fredrinn's voice suddenly turned serious.

Raphael perked up his ears, but he acted as if he wasn't interested.

Fredrinn smirked as he continued. "I will make you the family head of the Blackcrow Household…"

Raphael looked at him in surprise. "Are you insane? Do you think I'm an idiot?" He felt that it was ridiculous.

"Why? Do you think it's not possible?" Fredrinn smiled mysteriously.

Raphael stared at him in disdain. "You captured my father's most favorite child and you even detained his elite martial practitioners. He will come here seeking vengeance and that will be the day your Firecrown Household would fall!" He had seen his father's ruthless side and he believed that there was no one more powerful than him in the city.

Hearing this, Fredrinn picked his ears. He wasn't the least bit worried at all. If it was before, he wouldn't even entertain the thought of fighting the Blackcrow Household. However, things were different now.

In the past few days, they had been secretly investigating the Blackcrow Household. Roland had even personally sneaked inside their estate to gather information. It was then that they found out the purpose of the slaves.

It turned out that those slaves were sold to the military leaders of the Blue Sky Kingdom! This was a treasonous act against the Star Wind Kingdom! With the evidence they have, it was enough to kill the Blackcrow Household many times over.

"Even if he comes with the Blackcrow Household's entire army, he wouldn't be able to step foot in our estate." Fredrinn shook his head.

Raphael sneered. "Did the victory this time make you dumb? Even if you ask the city lord's mansion for help, they could do nothing to save your household! You have no idea how strong my family is!"

"Up to you." Fredrinn shrugged. He only suggested it on a whim because he was happy with Raphael's performance.

He left the underground prison with his hands in his pocket.

[You discovered the treasonous acts of the Blackcrow Household! Rewards: Level Up Card, Sword Talent Upgrade Card, and 3000 Fate Points!]

[Punish the traitorous family! Reward: ???]

This was the most recent notification he received from the system.

Fredrinn wasn't in a hurry to increase his cultivation and upgrade his sword talent. There was a more important matter that he had to take care of.

It was to claim the war horses that were promised to him by his father.

He headed to Roland's office in a hurry. He didn't even bother to knock on the door and entered without hesitation. "Father!"

Roland who was discussing something with Darius flew into rage when their conversation was interrupted. "Why didn't you knock on the door?!"

Fredrinn smiled cheekily as he took his seat. "I came here for my horses. Where are they?"

Hearing this, Roland covered his face. "You interrupted us for that?" He muttered with a helpless look.

Fredrinn smiled politely at Darius who was awkwardly sitting in between him and Roland.

Looking at Fredrinn, Roland could only shake his head. "Go to the beast farm and look for them on your own." He muttered impatiently.

Hearing this, Fredrinn stood up and smiled from ear to ear. "Thank you, father!" He then rushed out of the room.

Roland smiled bitterly at Darius. "I've embarrassed myself."

"There's nothing to be ashamed of, my lord. Lord Fredrinn did all of the planning and it was because of him that we now have a chance of eliminating the Blackcrow Household. He deserves all the credit. We only followed his instructions."

Roland nodded in agreement. He was also pleased with his son's performance in the past week. It was the first time that he felt so proud of him. "What do you think of him?" He asked.

Darius pondered for a moment before giving his response. "It's still too early to tell, but I think Lord Fredrinn is going in the right direction. Everyone is fairly satisfied with his performance and most of my subordinates have already accepted him as the next leader of the household.

Furthermore, I noticed that Lord Fredrinn's cultivation isn't what it seems to be…" He looked uncertain when he mentioned the last part.

"What do you mean?" Roland revealed a look of interest upon hearing this. He also noticed that his son was hiding his cultivation. Some of his subordinates even said that Fredrinn was already at the Foundation Establishment realm. He didn't believe it at that time since he was aware of his son's lacking martial talent. However, Fredrinn's recent activities made him wonder if it was true.

"My lord, I'm not sure if I should say this since I'm not a hundred percent certain."

"Just speak freely."

"Actually, I think Lord Fredrinn is already at the Core Formation realm," Darius muttered in a serious tone.

Hearing this, Roland widened his eyes. "Why do you think so?"

"Do you remember the city lord's eldest child?"

"Are you talking about that kid Lucas? What about him?"

"Yesterday, I saw him sparring with Lord Fredrinn near the energy stone mine. Sir Lucas is already at the Core Formation realm, but Lord Fredrinn had the upper hand during their sparring." Darius recounted everything he saw.

Roland could no longer sit still. If what he said was true, there was a high chance that Fredrinn was a Core Formation realm martial practitioner. Thinking about this, his lips curved upwards. "I'll ask him the next time I see him."

Meanwhile, Fredrinn had already arrived at the beast farm. It was a vast space where the family kept their mounts and tamed magical beasts.

"My lord!" A servant greeted him as soon as he arrived.

Fredrinn nodded at him and asked. "Where are the newly acquired war horses kept?"

"They should be together with the other horses. Do you want me to bring you there?"

"There's no need. I know the way." He didn't even wait for the servant to respond and left in a rush. Using the previous Fredrinn's memory, he navigated through the beast farm.

He saw all sorts of magical beasts in captivity. A huge portion of them were livestock like pigs, cows, chickens, and many others. They looked different than the animals in his home world, but there were obvious similarities so it wasn't difficult to tell them apart. There were also magical beasts used for land and aerial transport.

After looking around for almost half an hour, Fredrinn finally found where the war horses were kept. They were placed inside a newly made stable.

"My lord!" There was a servant feeding the war horses and he was surprised to see Fredrinn.

Fredrinn smiled at him and patted the man's shoulder. "Thank you for taking care of my horses."

The young servant was overwhelmed by his words. He humbly bowed his head. "I'm only doing my job, my lord."

"Please take care of them well." Fredrinn handed him a small sack filled with coins.

Looking at the bag of money in his hand, the young boy was stunned. "This is…"

"It's just a small reward for your efforts. Don't mind me, I only came here to check on my horses."

"Thank you, my lord!" The boy was filled with gratitude. Based on his estimate, the money inside the bag was equivalent to a month of his salary.

Fredrinn smiled and waved his hand as he walked away. The war horses of the Blackcrow Household were a rare breed of battle steeds. From their powerful aura and muscular bodies, he could tell that they had been well-fed and taken care of.

When he saw the horses happily eating the special hay prepared for them, he postponed the thought of bringing them out of the beast farm. 'I'll let you rest for now.' He thought.

He observed them for some time and he only left after giving a few instructions to the young servant.

Fredrinn returned to his study and checked his character profile.
