Chapter 74 No Compensation, Resignation
"I have elderly parents and young children to support. My entire family depends on me. If I die, they will all starve. Please have mercy on me."
"Me too, adults, please have mercy."
Merad and Esdeath's words were quite frightening, and the burly thugs were so frightened that they begged for mercy.
"Waaaaah..."
Even the burly leader of the pupa-like creatures on the ground was trying to make some noise, tears welling up in his eyes. He didn't want to be killed, and he didn't want to be taken out of the city to be fed to dangerous species.
"Ha, who can you thugs fool with your words?"
"Huh, so they were lying all along?"
"ah?!"
Nahashu looked over in surprise and discovered that there were still people in the group who believed it.
For example, Broly and Akame, who don't really like to use their brains.
"Brother, this is probably just an excuse they're using to beg for mercy."
Nahashu had no choice but to explain.
"Oh, they're just making excuses."
Broly and Akame suddenly realized what was going on.
"No, sir, I do have a daughter at home to raise."
"Me too, sir. I also have an elderly mother to take care of."
"Waaaaah, waaaah..."
The thugs on the ground hurriedly shouted, afraid that if they were too slow, they might be dealt with by these terrifying children.
That's what they said.
Akame looked at Nahash, who remained silent. The decision on how to handle this group should be left to Broly.
"Green, what do you think? If you want to get rid of these guys who have caused you so much trouble, then I'll help you take care of them."
Broly's fingertips glowed green. There might be some truth-tellers among them, but he didn't really care.
The priority is given to the wives and companions in the outer positions. If Green thinks they should be eliminated, then he will help eliminate these guys.
As for the solution, Broly decided to provide everyone with an energy bomb evaporation service, ensuring that no trace would be left except for fly ash.
Green was conflicted. These people were despicable; they had almost caused him and his parents' misfortune. But if they hadn't begged for mercy and said those things, Green certainly wouldn't have hesitated to kill them.
But these people begged for mercy, and among their pleas were parents and elderly people who needed care, and children who needed raising.
If we just resolve this issue, won't more children become orphans and more elderly people be left without support?
"I just want to give them a good beating so they'll stop bothering my parents and my family's bookstore."
Green ultimately chose not to finish off the person on the ground.
Broly respected his opinion and withdrew the anger from his fingertips.
A group of kids pulled the guy off the ground and beat him up again.
"From now on, don't cause any more trouble for Green or this bookstore, understand?"
After the fight was over, Broly and the others issued a warning.
"Yes, I understand!"
The thug, now completely swollen like a pig's head, responded fearfully, barely managing to support each other as they fled Cabrera Bookstore.
After hearing the exciting story about their son from his own mouth, Green's parents were very grateful to Broly and the others and insisted on hosting them.
However, Broly and the other children had already eaten when they arrived, so they did not accept the invitation from Green's parents to continue their hospitality.
Unable to refuse their kind invitation, each child took some books from the Green family's bookstore as payment.
Akame had a barbecue recipe book, Kurome had a dessert recipe book, and Mine seemed interested in firearms, so she picked up a basic mechanical tutorial book.
Esdeath didn't take it; she had no intention of sending Green home. Merard, the master and servant, were the same, and neither of them chose to take the book.
Broly, on the other hand, asked if there were any books on how to improve his wife's happiness level, and Fran Cabrera recommended a book specifically on women's psychology.
The book is good and thick, but there is a key problem: most of the people in the team are illiterate, including Broly himself.
Broly and his companions only discovered this after they brought the book back to the inn, unlike other cookbooks which included pictures and text.
Broly's psychology book is basically a big, incomprehensible book, relying on the information that comes to mind through permeation.
That night, Broly used the notebook as a pillow.
And you know what? A hard pillow and a big book are just the right size under your neck.
He slept very comfortably and had a wonderful dream where his happiness level skyrocketed.
. . . .
Tra was furious and sent a bunch of his men out to do some dirty work, but they came back looking disheveled and told him the mission had failed.
The Cabrera couple's failure wasn't due to any preparation, but rather to a bunch of little kids who weren't even waist-high to them.
They were defeated by a group of children and fled back like stray dogs.
"Master Travis, you have no idea, the children we face are like monsters. Even the one I easily snatched away with a sack has been completely transformed since he reappeared. He can still defeat me, he's a completely different person..."
"Enough! I don't want to hear any more of your excuses for your incompetence. Go back and get your bags. You bunch of incompetent fools are fired. I don't want to see you at the manor tomorrow!"
"Mr. Travis, you can't just abandon us like this. We've shed blood for you and risked our lives for you, and now we've been beaten to this state."
Someone said.
"Ha, when you were valuable, I would naturally pay you and hire you, but now you can't even beat a bunch of kids, what else do you want to say?"
The tall, thin man scoffed and pulled out a pistol from his waist.
"If anyone doesn't want to leave, I don't mind shooting them and letting them leave their life here."
Faced with the dark muzzle of a gun, the men, their faces bruised and swollen, had no choice but to slink away.
. . . .
"Damn Travis, what is he anyway?"
"If it weren't for his beautiful older sister hooking up with the Marquis, how would that guy be any different from us?"
"No, I can't swallow this."
"What are you trying to do? Don't be reckless. No matter what, that guy Trawei is able to get close to the Marquis by relying on his sister."
"I know, but Travis won't give up on that bookstore. He'll definitely go after it again."
While I can't do anything to Travis, I can tip off the Cabrera couple and make them fight.
"Great idea!"
"Damn it, they dared to make us pack our bags and leave. We have to make them suffer."
While a group of dismissed thugs were fuming and preparing to cause trouble for their former boss, Travis also sought out his sister that very night.
