Chapter 313: Fucking Scammers [2/2]
"Hamsters have no right to speak among men. Despite your ridiculous size, you have nothing but excuses. Vela's wolves have more courage than you. You are a pitiful excuse for a reaper. Cut off your phallus and wear a dress from tonight on."
The words of my northerner silenced the others. Vela's wolves were originally known as the Golden Wick, a group of young women who once also lacked the will to fight.
Bella's voice echoed as Lilly' closed her portal.
"Albert Maus, you are one of the least productive members of the LLG dismantling teams, yet you earn as much as those who work non-stop. Isn't it unfair that you only work three hours yet get the same amount?
The moment these words were uttered, the crowd turned on Albert. Communism rewarded those who did the bare minimum. But usually at the expense of those who worked harder. That was why it would never work.
It sounded like paradise when you were among the poor. But no sane person would choose it if you were among those who had dreams and ambitions.
Bella continued as she walked towards the catering. It was strange that my plans to feed the LLG turned out this way. Were the girls expecting such a result?
"What Ishtar said is true. It was not my honey that drove you to exhaustion. It was your own greed and stupidity. How dare you blame all this on my man! If he hadn't allowed you all to live off his scraps, you'd all be panicking about how to pay the battlefront tax.
"And you even have the impudence to ask for better wages? The audacity of this trash. Yet, my honey, in his magnanimity, gives you a chance. The food offered here has been enhanced by his {Fate}. Eating it will allow you to transcend the limits of humanity, just as he did.
"For those who believe they were simply dealt a bad hand. Then eat. From this moment on, the 2nd Amendment will conscript soldiers from the LLG. Unlike before, where it was on a volunteer basis, it will now be based on contribution."
It was just like Bella to make the best of any situation. Using food as a way to become better excused them all for being pathethic. The LLG would then be divided between those who desperately wanted to change and those who wanted to stay the same.
"Of course you all know how different the pay is between the army and the dismantling teams, right? I don't even need to remind you that what the 2nd Amendment makes in a day, you guys make in a month."
Bella then looked at Joshua before asking as she would her employee.
"Squad leader Joshua, your men ate this food and gained the ability to fight without tiring, correct?"
Joshua saluted as he answered. "YES MISTRESS MINERVA! 2nd Amendment answer our mistress. Was the food the reason we were able to fight like Limitless?!"
Both the 2nd Squad and Vela's wolves roared in unison.
"SIR, YES, SIR! THAT IS CORRECT, SIR!"
Satisfied, Bella gestured to Lilly to finish the presentation, or whatever this was. Lilly then smiled beautifully as she announced. I noticed Jo canceling her death resonance that prevented the LLG from standing up.
"HEAR ME EVERYONE! We do not condone just asking for rewards. If you are tired, then rest. But know that while you are free to choose, your consequences are also yours alone. For those who wish to rise higher, THIS IS YOUR MOMENT!
"FOR THOSE WHO ARE WEAK. FOR THOSE WHO WISH TO CHANGE! STAND! TAKE YOUR FATE INTO YOUR HANDS! AND FIGHT! YOU HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE YOUR OWN DESTINY!"
Like a religious cult, the once tired members of the LLG now had fire in their eyes as they stood up in excitement.
"I WILL DO IT!" "LET ME EAT LADY!" "ME!" "I CAN DO IT!"
"My girls are fucking scammers," I concluded.
Due to the presence of the 2nd Amendment, the LLG was orderly and formed lines on their own. Robyn, Liv, Jo and Jas would make sure that anyone who acted up would be severely beaten.
Eva began cutting up the meat and skewering it. The men and women who tasted the meat experienced the pleasure and rejuvenation of {Comfort Food}. It was quite something to see so many people suddenly bouncing with energy.
Bella and Lilly made their way to me as Phillip, Tildi, and Will took over and organized the lines.
"My Dear, I hope you don't mind?"
"Wasn't I great, honey?"
"Thank you both, I didn't understand the need, but I'm pleased with the results. Hopefully those who wish to improve themselves will rise," I replied with a smile.
But my eyes were focused elsewhere. Albert Maus, the communist who started this whole thing, was foaming at the mouth as he was dragged away by Aki.
"Bella, Lilly, is there a reason why Aki is taking the commie with her?"
"We are acting on a report found by Tildi. According to her adventurers, Hephaestus has been sending offers to LLG production reapers to leak our secrets. Albert Maus has been instructed to create dissension within our group," Bella reported.
Lilly then added. "We know there are three others, but we do not know who they are. Jas and Jo are in charge of finding them. Which is why neither of them did much a while ago. Robyn suggested we smoke them out with a lie. So we used the food as bait."
"Robyn suggested this?" I gasped in surprise.
"Yes, I was astonished too, honey. It seems that Vulture's Talons regularly tried to find moles and traitors using such schemes. By making something bigger than it was, those traitors would try to get more information while trying to stay hidden."
I see, so the bastards who stole Robyn from her parents were called the Vulture's Talons. When the time came, I would slaughter those fucking bastards, but for now, I memorized their name and bury it in my heart.
"I was quite surprised that she knew of such a thing, I tried to do something similar once, but it is quite difficult to execute," Lilly added.
"Sigh. I am so grateful to have you all. If it had been me, I probably would have just shot everyone."
"How American. Honey, I know you love guns, but please don't try to solve everything with them. I wonder why Lilly doesn't think like you."
"Probably because she uses a sword?" I guessed.
"You would be surprised, dear. I felt it in the last battle, fighting with guns is quite exhilarating! The sound of gunfire, the carnage of the bullets tearing flesh. It was quite enjoyable. I even turned off {Endure} just to feel the recoil."
"..."
"Puta."
"Please keep your vulgar comments to yourself, Bella. Have you seen the way Robyn and Jo fight? I am elegant compared to them."
"Tsk. Elegant? Where? You deliberately send the bullets to the heads to make them explode."
"Isn't that the best way? Anyone who watches movies knows that you always go for the head when it comes to zombies!" Lilly remarked.
"Anyway, honey, I was going to tell you, but it slipped my mind. Hephaestus seems to be leading the other P1 and P2 guilds to harass the LLG. I found out that the 100 who quit earlier were actually influenced by production spies sent to sabotage our efforts."
"Ugh, how annoying," I complained.
"Do not worry, my dear. As your women, it is our responsibility to keep the inside of your house clean and rodent free. Leave it to us. They will all be dead soon. We swear it."
"How reliable, thank you Lilly. I will count on all of you."
