Chapter 518 Bring Me More And I'll Pay Double!
“Good!” I could see her eyes reddened and even traces of tears were there. Even Hilary, the mighty chick of mine, was shaken to such an extent from this scene.
Angelica wasn’t any better. I just nodded to her to relieve her worries and try to soothe her pain.
“Go,” I said, “go and welcome them. First give them food and drink, let them change and have gears and weapons… Take them around, show them how humans shall live their lives here.”
“Ok,” the two said in unison while nodding, “but…” Hilary paused, and I got what she wanted to say.
“Just take a tour around, these mercenaries must be loaded with tons of gears,” I read through her thoughts. She was worrying about the lack of gears, enough to secure all this number.
But who said we didn’t have a way to solve this? In just this battle here, the number of those mercenaries was in millions.
With such numbers, who would worry about coins or gears? Even items like scrolls and materials would come in heaps hard to count!
“Got it,” the two girls had faces beamed with joy before they ran downstairs. Just the thought of helping those poor humans made them so happy.
[Lady… I will pay you double the agreed price if you manage to bring fifty million of my humans each day] and as they went downstairs to do their part, I had to do mine..
Who said money couldn’t buy anything? Damn! Without money, one would be a powerless beggar!
[Damn! Are you sure? The price of humans? Or just my reward?]
[Both!]
[But… One day…]
[One human missing and I won’t pay double] I knew gathering fifty million seemed like an easy task for her big impact, but on a daily basis? That was challenging indeed even for them.
[Cool! Don’t renege on your promise!]
[Send a contract to reassure your boss] I knew she wouldn’t doubt my sincerity, but her higher ups would.
[Great!]
As she sent a contract, I signed it. Then I started to sign more contracts with these people.
In fact seeing their faces was just enough as a contract for me. Such humans getting a chance to live properly was enough to gain their eternal gratitude and loyalty.
But I still had to secure myself from the dirty minds present in any race, not just humans.
As I did that, the two girls led everyone on their team to welcome the huge number of humans coming here. The number was too much to handle at one time, so the two arranged them into thousands of teams, each led by a single person of selected people.
I watched them go away while Hilary made them bypass over the heaps of dead mercenaries to claim their loot. It was a nice touch from her, letting them have the taste of owning something for the first time.
Such people… I was sure they never owned anything before, not even their pride, not even their dignity, not even their bodies.
But from now on, I swear they’d live a life suited to any high and mighty race. My humans won’t be treated like this anymore.
As for the price I promised the green nymph lady… Just looking at those millions of mercenaries with higher stats and much stronger cultivation bases made me feel secure.
Recalling cultivation… I had to wait for the recipe of such a thing from the impact. They agreed, but they didn’t honour this deal yet.
Once done, I’d make Lily and her boys turn all of my humans here into powerful cultivators. I’d do anything in my power to help my humans rule supreme in this apocalypse, in the twenty group of apocalypses, in the entire universe in the end.
[Don’t forget about our secret recipe deal] I sent before stepping forward inside the blockade zone.
[I didn’t forget, but such a thing will take little time to be done. Just be patient, alright?]
[Ok. I’m going to a sealed place with a blockade on any connection. So don’t feel panicked if I didn’t answer]
[Hmm… Interesting… Do you want me to look for something to help?]
[Can you?]
[Baby, in this wide universe, there is nothing impossible!]
[Cool! Search for something, better to be used repeatedly…] I paused before adding, [Also it’s best to find also a defensive tool, to defend big zones against such a thing]
[Got it! Leave it to me]
[Cool! If you couldn’t reach me, just store what you got and wait for me to come back on the grid]
[Ok]
As I closed the chat with her, I moved my chariot around the capital. The number of enemies killed here was just astronomical.
I just had to jump and would take tons of bones every time I reached a zone. Even if most were green and blue, their number was enough to secure many deals for months, even years!
“I’m done!”
Just as I was busy doing this, Isac came up with such a confident look on her face. I sighed. Just seeing such a mighty figure in such a mighty race and comparing it to the humans coming out from the portals before made me feel how unjust this universe was.
The system was just? The system was biassed and unfair! If it was just, then it wouldn’t let any race have advantage over another.
If those damn higher ups cared truly about the universe, they’d have cared more about weak races. I knew they were looking for strong fighters to win the war, but that didn’t mean we should lose our nature and treat the weak in such a merciless and brutal way!
And I thought humans were uncivilised! At least we got our humane way to treat others, unlike other races who were looking more like barbaric people.
“Just wait… I’ll come up once I finish,” I shouted while taking more bones and loot from all the killed mercenaries here.
As for the monsters these folks brought here, they should be dissected and their meat would be salvaged. Right now we have tens of millions of mouths to feed. And just depending on the monster meat wouldn’t be enough.
“I needed to solve the problem of food,” I seriously thought while jumping back to my chariot and leading it towards a new zone.
As for Isac, she stood in silence while watching me do all this. It seemed the scene of the humans coming here didn’t escape her senses. And somehow she felt embarrassed about what happened to my people.
I just hoped all the other races across the limitless universe would feel the same. One day, one way or another, I’d force them to feel the same without doubt.
