Chapter 107: " My subordinate." (2/2)
But raising them as guardian beasts in a way is grooming them as equals. They will be given all the resources to grow strong and they will help them in battle and safety of the cities.
That is why marquis is not willing to let them go. But when he saw the evil smile on Sam's face, he clearly lost all hope.
”Oh? But now he is my pet. So, you have to trouble yourself to get a replacement for the guardian beast.” Sam said with that evil smile and the he looked at the remaining two beasts in the zone where the remaining thirty or so students are battling and said.
”You might want to groom them properly. If not, someone might visit them at night and take them away. At least let them show some resistance, if they are too easy the thief might even laugh at you.”
Marquis almost puked blood at his sarcasm. Now, he became really worried that Sam might steal them.
At this moment, marquis' personal attendant came running. All the people present were surprised at his flustered state.
When the attendant saw that there are so many people, he whispered something to Marquis and the Principal. Both of them exchanged looks only to see each other's surprised expression.
Both the big-shots turned to look at Sam and immediately walked forwards towards the academy entrance.
Sam also felt that something big is happening and followed them along with his teammates and the ape.
When they reached the entrance, the scene shocked everyone.
Sam saw many familiar faces; they are all the lackeys of Zeke which he didn't deal with yet. He gave the task to Watt to deal with them in six months and this day happened to be the last day of the dead line.
And what is in front of him is the result of the task.
Watt is standing on top of the arch of the entrance.
And the sixteen lackeys, are hung upside down to the arch.
Their legs are tied up to a rope and the other end of the rope is tied to the arch itself.
All the lackeys are in a very bad shape. Their skin has been flayed at many spots and the worst thing is that there are numbers carved on their backs.
They have broken bones, stabs and mostly deep and long cuts. These long cuts might have been the result of his cards throwing.
Watt is standing straight with a proud expression. He folded his hands across his chest. His clothes are torn completely. His upper body is bare. His pants are torn at many places.
He has many cuts on his body. Many injuries, burn marks, bruises. He doesn't look like he is in a good state. But his face quite contrary to his physical state.
With that blood, cuts and bruises on his face, he still has an emotionless face and those eyes are still sharp.
When Watt saw Sam, he immediately jumped down.
Marquis and the Principal wore gloomy and dark impression. The guards who are supposed to be at the entrance, are unconscious and the guards who followed both of them are waiting for his orders.
When marquis made a gesture, the guards are about to make a move. At this moment.
*ROAAAAR*
The ape suddenly stepped forward and blocked all the guards with an angry expression. All the guards stopped in their tracks.
Marquis looked at Sam with a confused expression. But the latter didn't care and walked towards Watt. He didn't say anything and started healing him without a single word.
He fixed his wounds and bones and after everything is done, he looked at Marquis and said.
”My subordinate.” Then he pointed at the sixteen lackeys who are dripping blood to the ground and said.
”At least tell your son to pick better ones. My one and only subordinate is enough to take on these snobs. It is even embarrassing for me to fight with your son.”
Then only Marquis carefully looked at Watt. He is only at Level 2 Novice, but he took down even the Level 4 Novices. He didn't know how the fights went, but he really was shocked at one thought. Even if Sam's subordinate is like this, then how fearsome would Sam be.
Even though, he saw Sam fighting in the special branch, he never saw him go all out. To be exact, no fight has forced him to exert his prowess like Watt until now. Suddenly, he felt pity for his son.
At this moment, the remaining candidates which are only around twenty came out and walked towards the entrance with exhausted faces. Among them, Zeke was also present and when he saw his lackeys hung to arch at the entrance in their pathetic states, he felt his blood run cold.
He looked at his father and when he knew what happened, Sam and his group are already walking away.
Zeke suddenly felt his knees go weak. He is even more exhausted than when he was in special branch zone.
