Assassin's Chronicle - Chapter 464

Chapter 464: Old Business

The young men formed a circle around the two girls and the mages . Their attitude was clear . They would not submit easily .

Anfey turned to Ozzic and asked, "Is there anyone important above us?"

Ozzic shook his head .

"Alright," Anfey said . "Leave us . "

Ye glanced at Anfey, then left quietly with his men . He waved his hand and the mercenaries in his inspectorate began shoving the patrons out of the tavern as well .

"This is your last chance," Anfey said, raising his arm and summoning a raging storm of elements .

Even without the help of the ring, Anfey knew that the most powerful of the group should be the woman Ozzic had beaten . She was more powerful than Ozzic and was just pretending to be defeated . Even if he destroyed the tavern, she would still survive . He just needed to leave one person alive .

Anfey didn’t care if these people died or not . He founded an inspectorate because he needed a branch to keep the mercenaries in the city from violating the rules . Even though the inspectorate was new and its duties were still unclear, it was still very important and no one should disobey it .

The patrons clearly knew who Ye was and what kind of power he wielded, which was why Anfey was very angry . He could not allow Ye’s power to be questioned, because that would be an act of questioning his power .

Suddenly, a voice called out and Anfey stopped moving . "Wait!" a middle-aged man appeared and hurried over . "Wait . "

The young men all moved out of the middle-aged man’s way . "Put those away," the middle-aged man said . The young men looked at him, then reluctantly put their weapons away . The middle-aged man turned to Anfey and said, "What is it you need with them? We will cooperate . "

"Finally," Anfey said, "someone sensible . " He looked at the man while turning the ring in his hand .

"What did they do?" the middle-aged man asked carefully . "Did they… did they offend you, my lord?"

"They killed a hundred mercenaries and refused to cooperate with me," Ye said, walking over . "I need them to come with me . "

"We were attacked first," one of the girls argued .

The middle-aged man waved his hand and silenced her . He turned to Anfey and said, "I apologize, my lord . They are still young and too brash . Of course you can take them . " He turned to the young men and waved his hand . The young men sighed and began slowly moving towards Ye .

"And her," Anfey said, tossing a cup towards the woman who was sitting on the ground .

The woman’s body suddenly twisted, and she jumped to the side . The cup hit the floor and shattered .

"Of course," the man said, "of course . "

"And you?" Anfey said . "I need to search this place . "

The middle-aged man frowned . "I don’t recall breaking any laws, my lord," he said .

"You were hiding fugitives . "

The middle-aged man sighed . "I do not know when I have offended you, my lord . Do you enjoy ruining people’s lives?"

"Don’t act too innocent," Anfey said . "What would those dead mercenaries think?"

The man turned to the young men and said, "I’ve always said don’t be so brash . Don’t make a decision you will later regret . "

"Don’t try to do anything," Anfey said, shaking his head . "Rangers . "

"Rangers?" the middle-aged man repeated with a frown . "I don’t know what you’re talking about, my lord . "

"Don’t play the fool with me," Anfey said . "Treat others like you want to be treated . If you cannot do that, you have no right to talk about anything . "

"I am very confused, my lord," the man said . "I really have no idea what you’re talking about . "

"Let me tell you," Anfey said . "My wife’s name is Suzanna . After Trajan’s rebellion, she left Gruce with her younger sister . She had a treasure map with her, but she was attacked, and half of the map was stolen . "

The man watched Anfey calmly . His expression did not change at all . The young men behind him clearly were not good liars . As soon as they heard Suzanna’s name, they turned to each other and began muttering under their breath .

"The treasure map belonged to her teacher and was a secret . I don’t know how you found out about it, but I want to know . I know you’re not peaceful people because you also resort to violence . If Suzanna were not as powerful as she is, there will be not justice for her or her sister . "

Ye watched in shock . Suzanna had never ordered anyone and had no officers, but she was still very important and held an important spot in a lot of mercenaries’ heart . The mercenaries began getting very angry when they heard Anfey say that these people once attacked Suzanna .

"You have no right talking about justice," Anfey continued . "You only speak of it when you cannot fight your way out of a situation . You are part of the Church . I didn’t know anyone could be as despicable as you . I do not care what you say, but I will take you and those people with me today and I will search this place . "

The middle-aged man frowned . "You mistake me for someone else," he said . "I really have no idea what Rangers are . "

"You will know," Anfey said . "You either come with me or give me an excuse to kill all of you . "

"Fine," the middle-aged man said, shaking his head . "We will go, since you choose not to believe us . "

Ye waved his hand and the mercenaries hurried over, tying up the middle-aged men and the young men . They even tied up the girls as they brought them out of the tavern .
