Pushover Extra Trains the Villainesses

Chapter 116: Sweet Business Method XV

The Predator members, disguised as workers, broke into the building. They succeeded in sneaking into the VIP room, pretending to be carriers. Their attire was indistinguishable.

Those staying in the best room in this inn were surely of executive level, even within the Beden Merchant Company. So there was no need to look for them as only those in the room was their target.

“Yes, but… the security is tighter than I thought.”

“Anyway, it’s because the leader attracted a lot of attention with the monstrous woman from before. If I can just get the timing right, I should be able to eliminated them all in an instant.”

“We just have to make no mistakes. I’ve faced situations worse than this before…”

“As long as we get rid of the escorts and capture the targets, the situation will be over. After that, all we have to do is use them as hostages and extract a large amount of money from the Beden Merchant Company…”

“Will it be alright? I heard that the owner of the Beden Merchant Company cares deeply for his people…”

Assuming everything would go smoothly, they calmly searched for opportunities. Then, suddenly, the three of them began to feel that someone was missing.

“…huh? Now… wait a minute…”

“M-Mino? Mino, where has she gone?”

From a certain point, the youngest member, Mino, had vanished. Feeling embarrassed, they urgently searched for her, but no matter how much they looked around, she was nowhere to be seen.

“She… you don’t think she’s already been caught and captured, do you?”

“Ah, no… that can’t be the case. If that were true, this place should have been in chaos trying to find us, but it doesn’t look like that at all.”

“Then where did she go? She had been following us all along.”

“Damn it… that damn younger sister…and older sister told me to keep an eye on her…”

Worrying about their comrades, they realized that each person’s strength was crucial; dealing with enemies of that size without Mino’s cooperation was impossible. Even so, it was too dangerous to leave the hiding place entirely to find a comrade. 

In the disrupted plan, dark clouds of despair began to hang over the hearts of the three.

At that moment…

“Um… over there!”

A familiar voice suddenly came from behind. The three of them hurriedly turned their heads in that direction. 

And there…

“Mino!”

“Thank God. Where have you been?”

The next moment, Mino appeared in front of them. The faces of the three began to show a deep sense of relief.

However..

“Hey? Mino, what are you doing? Come over here quickly.”

“I almost had a heart attack because of you. We don’t have time anymore, so we have to start right away.”

“….”

Mino did not respond to the words of her colleagues calling her. Doubts and strange anxiety began to emerge in the heads of the three.

“He..he!”

“Muh.. what?”

The next moment, the sword hilt was suddenly pointed at their necks. At this, embarrassment and despair bloomed on their faces simultaneously. 

And… looking at them like that, a smile filled with guilt slowly began to form on Mino’s lips.

“Mi.. Mino, you can’t..”

“You… you ba*tard!”

Incomprehensible and unacceptable, but… the current reality was clear. 

Looking at them like that, Mino spoke with tears in her eyes.

“Sorry…Big Sisters… I…really had to do this…”

With those words, Mino slowly presented a piece of paper. Inside was information about becoming a member of the Beden Merchant Company and Mino’s signature.

“This… this ba*tard…you betrayed us!”

“How… how can you…”

“Kuh…”

The three began to feel anger, betrayal, and deep sadness at the act of the youngest, who had sold out her sisters who was like family, even one who actually shared blood.

However…

“Um…but we don’t have to do this, do we? We can solve it with words…”

“Don’t speak such nonsense! Don’t you know? The feeling of trust is like poison to a merchant. They would never believe you, at least not until the papers are stamped. We need to treat it thoroughly just in case.”

“Yeah, but… we’ll see each other from now on. We have to consider the relationship to some extent…”

Loud voices came from Mino’s back. As they listened to the conversation between the young girl and the young woman, doubt began to creep into their faces.

The reason is that…

“What… what…”

“You… you…?”

“Yes? What…?”

Two figures appeared before them with the escorts. One was a woman with red hair they had never seen before. 

The other was a face all four of them recognized.

“You… you suggested scouting us…”

“Are you sure you’re the kid I saw in the Rhome? Yes… why are you here…!”

At that moment, a puzzle naturally began to fit together in the heads of the three. A member of the upper ranks trying to hire you for a large sum of money. A girl trading from Rhome to Benessa. 

The hint had already been given a long time ago.

Towards the members of the Predator who were looking at her like that, the girl…

A bright smile appeared on Yuria Sweets’ lips.

***

“So what happened? Those people…”

Robert asked cautiously.

In response, Yuria said with a smile on her face, “For now, their weapons are confiscated and they are locked up in a prison… to be precise, in a windowless basement. You’ll have to give me time to think.”

“Okay…”

While talking about such things, Robert began to think that this girl named Yuria might be more terrifying than he had thought. Even though so many things had happened, they were definitely the ‘enemy’ who tried to harm them. If Yuria had been unlucky enough not to recognize their faces and failed to persuade one of them, the situation could have caused a great scandal.

Nevertheless, instead of simply mobilizing adventurers and confronting them, Yuria held out a contract with the most unconventional conditions under Isolda’s permission. 

In a way, it could be regarded as a simple act of generosity… or an act of naivety. But if you considered the situation deeply, it was not so. 

The opponents were people with enough strength that even Ophelia had warned them in advance. If you clashed with such people, even if you won, you would suffer significant damage.

In the process, people like Robert and Isolda could be in danger. 

From Yuria’s point of view, even if she had no trust in the other party, she had no choice but to take a conciliatory stance. As long as they knew that their purpose was not out of resentment but for money, the possibility of accepting the contract was naturally high.

It was not intentional, but when they met in person, they already had a considerable liking for Yuria. Plus, thanks to the actions of the girl who had been persuaded, even their ability to fight their last battle had been completely erased.

Thus, as a result of luck and skill, Yuria succeeded in resolving this situation, which could have been a considerable crisis, without any major problems.

‘It looks like she’s simply nice at first glance, but it’s not the case at all. She can calmly analyze the situation every moment and decide what is best…’

An existence that was never swayed by emotions and could only consider profit. To think that a girl in her mid-teens, similar to himself, has this kind of quality that even adults couldn’t possess was making Robert feel a little awe as well as admiration.

‘I think I know a little bit… why am I always showing interest in this girl…’

While thinking about that, Robert started blushing slightly without even realizing it.

On the other hand, unaware of Robert’s thoughts, Yuria slightly hardened her expression. She contemplated the only remaining variable, which might require purging of them altogether.
