Chapter 179 - A Very Bad Person
Chapter 179 - A Very Bad Person
"Big sister, you should listen to Master. What Master said is correct. We are all alone here. Only Master can keep us safe," Fenriri tried to persuade her elder sister.
However, her persuasion immediately made the older wolf-girl gazed back at her little sister in disbelief.
"M-M-Master…? Little sister, do you know what you are saying?! Not only did you give away your true name, but you are also addressing this person as…Master?!" She was exasperated.
At the same time, Albion's eyes flickered before giving Fenriri a second glance with a thoughtful expression.
'Interesting…' He thought.
The younger wolf-girl was full of cuteness, but if she was to be underestimated due to this, it would be his undoing.
'The younger one is more gifted with intelligence than the older one, huh?' He mused.
Shortly after, Albion shifted his gaze back to the older wolf-girl and said, "Your little sister is more farsighted than you. You best do well to listen to her more often."
"You—"
"Sister!"
The older wolf-girl was prepared to retort, but she was immediately interrupted by Fenriri's cry, who gazed at her with an intense pleading look.
"Fine…"
The older wolf-girl eventually relented with a sigh. She lowered her head to Albion as a sign of submission before she uttered, "Master…"
"What is your name?" Albion asked.
"Fenrira," the older wolf-girl answered after a bit of hesitation.
"Fenriri and Fenrira, huh?" Albion muttered softly.
To give their true name is to show their sincerity. But whether it had any deeper meaning, he can only find out later. For now, he was satisfied with gaining the wolf-girls.
Training them to be loyal and capable subordinates was the true challenge, and to be honest, it sounded troublesome.
'Since it is troublesome, I'll just leave the work to someone else,' Albion thought.
He was not a qualified teacher nor trainer. Looking at the Dark Emperor's history and methods of training his disciples, the Dark Emperor was not one either.
'Hm…'
After shifting his glances to Wuxin and Sally before turning back to Fenriri and Fenrira, Albion suddenly paused.
'This new group is somewhat unbalanced in terms of genders… I better find some more worthy male subordinates to recruit under my banner…'
Albion mused.
Suddenly, a skinny hunter with bucktooth arrived to investigate.
"What you people doing in the back here…" the skinny hunter slowly stopped speaking.
Upon discovering the two wolf-girls, the hunter was stunned temporarily before he immediately understood what was happening.
"Wolf-girls! The Abestel family smuggled wolfmen from the Glacia continent! Everyone, come take a look! These people are trying to run off with the—!!"
Poof!
The skinny hunter's head exploded!
"Too noisy."
Albion stated with a frown after bashing the person's head in with a forceful chop before cleaning the blood from his hand with a quick swipe.
"Woah! His head popped like a watermelon!" Wuxin exclaimed.
"Do you know what you should say when you bash the heads of annoying people like this in the future?" Albion casually asked with a smile.
"What we say, boss?" Wuxin was immediately curious.
"You say… Pop! Goes the weasel," Albion grinned.
"…"
Wuxin stared at him blankly for a moment before asking, "What does that mean, boss?"
"Fell flat again, huh?" Albion softly muttered after seeing the little girls were not entertained by his joke.
"Haiz..."
After shaking his head, Albion said, "One day, you'll understand after I take you to play some whack-a-mole."
"Oh…"
"Alright, let us leave now—Oh, but before that, you two can't come out looking like that. You'll attract too much attention."
Albion suddenly remembered.
Shortly after, he fished his hand inside the Ashura Ring's storage space and took out a pair of black cloaks before draping them over the two wolf-girls, covering their fluffy ears and tails.
"Looks good," Albion nodded before glancing left and right while wondering, "Now, which is the quickest way out from here?"
He did not need to think too deeply before the answer was clear to him.
He raised his foot and…
Boom!
The entire wall crumbled under his strong kick, forming a clear path to the streets outside of Eastern Allure Auction House.
"What happened to not wanting to attract too much attention, Master?"
Fenrira was speechless.
'Is this person actually reliable?' She began to doubt.
"Haiz, don't sweat the details… They're just trivial matters," Albion waved off the topic nonchalantly and said, "I want to avoid trouble, but it doesn't mean that I am afraid of them."
"When push comes to shove, there's nothing I can't solve," Albion stated.
"Master, are you a good person or a bad person?" Fenriri asked with curiosity after witnessing him murder a person of his own kind in cold blood.
"Me? I am a very bad person. The vilest and most evil villain in this world," Albion grinned wickedly.
However, Fenriri was not intimidated.
She wrinkled her brows and asked with doubt, "The vilest and most evil villain? Why am I getting the impression that you are actually a good person, Master?"
"A good person?" Albion smiled before shaking his head, "I can be good to some people and bad to others. It depends on the person."
"If you have the choice to be a good or bad person, why do you choose to be a bad person?" Fenriri continued to ask.
While they chatted on the way out, more hunters were drawn over.
However, everyone that blocked their path was quickly shot down by rock bullets to the head after Albion gathered them with Empyrean's Decree.
After that, no one dared to block them anymore.
Albion left the scene at his own steady pace with the four girls before he casually explained to Fenriri, "Let us put it this way; a hero can only do good things. If they do bad things, they are no longer considered a hero."
"On the other hand, a villain can do good or bad things. The choice is theirs to make. They have more freedom, no restraints in their actions."
"In other words, Master just does whatever Master wants to do?"
"Bingo."
