Battle of Ascension

Chapter 294: Fair Trade

Iman Saputra's heart was beating furiously at the sight of the humanoid monkey in the front. At first, he had the confidence to face every monster after the drill over half a month. However, that confidence vanished when the humanoid monkey's information appeared in his eyes.

Mythical Grade Beastmen, the humanoid monkey in the front of him was Mythical Grade Beastmen. Mythical Grade, he only heard it from the Boss but never encountered one. Let alone Mythical Grade, he even never encountered Emperor Grade.

The highest grade he ever met was King Grade, the Territory King. But he never fought the King Grade Beast and only watched from the sideline.

However, now, Mythical Grade Beastmen was right in the front. Not only that, he even didn't have the confidence to fight the six humanoid monkeys. No, it was not he didn't have confidence, but he realized his team could not even win if he fought against one among the seven humanoid monkeys.

Grade: Legendary Beastmen

Level: 599

Skill: ???

-------------------

The six humanoid monkeys were Legendary Grade Beastmen. He and his team could not even fight equally against King Grade, but now there was Legendary Grade Beastmen. Not only one, but six Legendary Grade Beastmen, and one Mythical Grade Beastmen as the leader.

Seven Monikias were wearing nothing with 2 meters golden sticks in each their hand. Just as he wanted to shout at his friend to run. However, the seven Monikia acted first

Torin dashed at Iman Saputra while the other six spread, intending to surround the group.

Iman Saputra panicked, he wanted to send a message but a golden stick hit his head first before he could even send a message to the boss. The same with his friends, the six Legendary Monikia knocked them in less than 5 seconds. They were powerless before the seven Monikia.

"Take them to the village!" Torin ordered the six Monikias.

Shou! Shou! Shou! Shou! Shou! Shou! Shou!

The seven Monikias leaped to the tree after tree. Not long after, they reached the "village". It was no wonder Garuda's member and Randy could not find them because the one so-called village was on the topmost tree.

Yes, the village was on the topmost tree. There was a house made of wood on the topmost tree. Torin and the other six Monikias brought Iman Saputra and his team to a circular house which was the biggest house in the village.

Inside the circular house, there was a humanoid monkey, a bigger one compared to the others with silver fur and there was a horn-like crown on the top of the silver Monikia's head.

Entering the circular house, the six Monikia threw Iman Saputra and his team on the floor directly. After that, they knelt down at the silver Monikia.

"Chief, we have brought another ten humans back," Torin reported to the silver fur Monikia with his deep tone.

"Mnn," Silver Monikia nodded his head as he scanned the ten people on the grounds and looked back at Torin.

"How is it?" The Silver Monikia asked Torin in a lazy tone.

"They are so weak! We knocked them down less than 10 seconds," Torin reported truthfully, he was frowning, "Chief, why don't we directly attack them? Even though they win in the number, but they are weaker to use, much weaker. One villager at least could take five to ten humans,"

The Silver Monikia waved his hand lazily at Torin, "Did you forget? The human who almost killed Reon three days ago? That human almost killed him in one strike and Reon could not even react at that human's attack,"

"We could not underestimate them like that. Who now that human is stronger than us," Even though the Silver Monikia said so, he still had a nonchalant look, "Also, our purpose is not to become their enemy. You are not forgetting our purpose, right?"

Torin could only nod his head at the Silver Monikia's words, but he remembered something, "But we have chopped ten hands, I doubt this will end with peace,"

"It was a fair trade. They almost killed one of us and we just chopped their hands, we didn't take their life. So they won't be mad over this, right? After all, we just returned what they did to us,"

"All right, stop being fussy about this. You better make your next move, threaten them with these twenty humans, and drive them out from our Holy Island,"

The silver monikia seemed annoyed at Torin who was questioning him continuously. He waved his two right hands, dismissing Torin along with the other six Monikias from the circular house.

However, suddenly a shadowy figure came out from Torin's shadow. The shadowy figure stepped onto Torin's head till pasted to the floor. He struggled, but soon he sensed a cold object in his neck, even without looking Torin knew that cold object was a sword.

Torin stopped struggled, he felt the sword would pierce his neck if he kept struggling.

Meanwhile, the other six Monikias yelled a "nyia nyia nyia" sound, ringing throughout to the whole village like a bell.

"Hoho, look like we have a guest here," The Silver Monikia remained unperturbed despite his subordinate was under the shadowy figure foot. However, he squinted his eyes at the shadowy figure, scanning the shadowy figure from the toe to the head.

"Hehe, yeah. There's a guest comes to your village, but your village seems quite lacking in hospitality. How come your subordinates are yelling like this when there's guest comes to your village?"

Randy pointed his finger toward the six Monikias who were shouting like a crazy monkey. Yes, the shadowy figure was of course Randy. He actually followed Iman Saputra's group, even when the group met Torin and his team, Randy was watching them.

He wanted to help Iman Saputra's group at first, but he realized the Monikia was not killing them. So, he just followed them under the shadow until they reached the village.

The Silver Monikia waved his two right hands at the six Monikias and the six shut their mouth obediently.

"Hoho, sorry about that. After all, we never receive a guest in the past," The Silver Monikia let out another chuckle and turned his head at the six Monikias and ordered one with lazy tone, "Give our guest a seat!"

The Monikia who had received the order seemed to hesitate, but under the Silver Monikia's gaze he obediently came out from the circular house. After 3 minutes, the dark brown Monikia brought a chair inside.

"Mister" Silver Monikia had not finished his words, but Randy cut it off as he waved his hand Silver Monikia.

"My name is Randy Christian. I am the leader of the twenty people you kidnapped," Randy didn't sit at the chair, but calmly introduced himself as he pushed Torin's head further.

"So it's Randy. So, what is your purpose coming to my village? Oh, before that, could you release him," Silver Monikia was polite as he spoke.

"All right," Randy nodded his head. However

Swoosh!

Randy's swords moved, slashing at Torin's two hands directly.

Splash!

Red blood spurted from two hands and Torin screamed in pain with a "Nyia!!!!". Without delay, Randy kicked Torin and Torin flung toward the six Monikias.

The six Monikias immediately caught Torin. However, when they wanted to rush, confronting the human who just cut Torin's hand, The Silver Monikia stopped them.

Meanwhile, Randy was sitting at the chair, smiling at the Silver Monikia. But the Silver Monikia frowned at Randy, clearly displeased, but he didn't act and prevented his subordinates to attack Randy.

"You cut my men's hand, ten hands and I just cut two hands. So you still owe me eight hands. Ten hands for ten hands, it's a fair trade, right?"
