Chapter 481 Cap 479: Stealing From Those Who Steal Part 2(Chapter Preview)
I was fishing when Marcos decided to talk to me, at first he just thanked me, but then he wanted to tell me something, it seems something is about to happen in this town.
"What kind of plan are you talking about? Besides who would that plan be?" (I)
"You must know that as an illegal dealer, my job consisted of transporting things from one place to another in secret." (Marcos)
"Because I was willing to take jobs that no one else would take no matter the danger, I ended up being very well known which gave me enough influence to make deals with people with more money." (Marcos)
"That particular person is crazy, he's a pirate, but he's already conquered a fleet of dozens of ships." (Marcos)
"He takes pleasure in making others suffer, he enjoys showing people off while he steals everything important before killing in the most sadistic way possible." (Marcos)
"You said he conquered your pirate fleet, what do you mean by that?" (I)
"He is someone very strong, so it was easy for him to incapacitate a pirate ship and torture the pirate captain for two in front of the crew, after that the result was obvious, everyone swore loyalty to him, and the same was done with other pirate groups. " (Marcos)
"With that, he quickly built a reputation that filled those who hear his name with fear." (Marcos)
"He is also bolder than other pirates, he has attacked coastal villages, he has attacked official ships and boats of the Grimo Kingdom and many other crimes." (Marcos)
"His name is Ivan, but he's also known as the butcher." (Marcos)
"What's your race?" (I)
"He may act like a monster, but he still belongs to the Human race." (Marcos)
He has the same name as Ivan, but maybe it's just a common name, plus Marcos says he's strong, but Marcos' strength was only at Grade+A max.
Now that he's a Vampire he must be close to Grade +S, this Butcher guy must be below Grade SSS, there are many in my group who can fight him.
"You were talking about a plan, but what plan is that?" (I)
"To put it simply, he is planning to attack this city, one of the main trading cities in the Kingdom." (Marcos)
"He's been planning this for years from what I hear." (Marcos)
"Do you know his whole plan?" (I)
"No, I can only guess a few things since I made some deliveries for him." (Marcos)
"He has large stores of poison, swords, slaves, magic crystals and mage slaves." (Marcos)
"Also he has a fleet of ships, maybe he has an army of 3 or 4 thousand pirates and combat slaves." (Marcos)
I don't know what his plan is, but the only certainty is that he will attack this city, I have no attachment to this place, but maybe there is something I can gain from this.
"Do you know the date of the attack?" (I)
"Yes, I had to bribe one of the pirates to tell me so I could get away before the attack along with Carla." (Marcos)
"When they attack, they'll have to get off the boats, right?" (I)
"There's a big chance to bombard the city with magic cannons and spells if large scale first, but then they must leave the ships to attack." (Marcos)
"Just to clear up a doubt, where pirates keep their treasures." (I)
"Mostly inside their boats in well-guarded storage items or with the pirate leader himself." (Marcos)
"That's wonderful, I was afraid you'd say they buried their treasures." (I)
"Why would they do something so stupid?" (Marcos)
"A monster with a sensitivity to magic could find it, maybe even someone with strong senses could walk through and feel the treasure, it could even happen that in a fight it starts nearby and one of the missed hits reveals the treasure." (Marcos)
"The safest place is inside the boat where all the pirates have to defend the treasure." (Marcos)
"That will make things easier as we're going to steal these pirates as soon as they get off their boats." (I)
"I think you who know these pirates and this city will be the best person to help me plan this plan as you can clear up any doubts I have." (I)

Pov of an unknown pirate:
"NO PLEASE NO AHHHH!!!!!"
"Hahahahaha..." (butcher)
"That was fun, but it looks like I'll have a business to attend to now, so it's time to finish this." (butcher)
"I WANT TO LIVE, AT LEAST SAVE ME..."
"..."
When I entered the room I saw only blood and pieces of meat scattered all over the place, no matter how many times I come here, I will never get used to this place.
I still had the misfortune to arrive at the butcher's fun moment, he has spent the last two days torturing two pirates who sold our information to the dealer we normally use as a middleman to buy or sell what we need.
We tried to find the dealer, but he disappeared from that yesterday, the same goes for his boat and crew.
It looks like he ran away, but at least no one warned the soldiers of our plane as there was no movement from them.
As soon as I walked in to say that we weren't able to find Marcos the drug dealer, he rips their heads off with a smile on his face, then turns to me.
"Any news from Marcos?" (butcher)
"Unfortunately not." (!I)
"Looks like he fled along with his crew and boat." (I)
"Did he warn anyone?" (butcher)
"Not yet, looks like he's gone to town, but it must be to get supplies for the trip." (I)
"Then let's stick to our plan." (butcher)
"How are the preparations going?" (butcher)
"Everyone is ready, we just need to wait until the day for our men in town to finish their part." (I)
"Send someone to clean up later, it was fun while it lasted, but I ended up making a really big mess." (butcher)
"I'll call one of the slaves again." (I)
He's covered in blood, and smiles like he's just woken up in a good mood.
Sigh
"You two idiots." (I)
As soon as he left the room, I fetch some slaves who were horrified to have to clean this blood-covered room.
I hope the plan goes off without a hitch or I'll be the next to be ripped apart alive.
