Chapter 625: Helping them (1/2)
Dharkan slowly dropped to his knees. If not for the fact that the room is small and Sam didn't want to cause any ruckus, he would have slammed their heads to the ground the minute they made their move.
He looked at Dharkan coldly as he placed the restriction back on Night Charm.
He didn't even stop her bleeding much less heal her. But if he kept it like that and restricted the cultivation, then she would bleed to death.
”Sam, at least heal her.”
Dharkan said slowly, but Sam kicked him in the face, before saying.
”You better think about how you are going to stay alive, before thinking about her. Do you think it is that easy breaking your word with me?”
Sam said as he sat on the chair and looked at both of them coldly.
”I don't have any other choice. If you don't die, people will know I didn't kill her. Then I would have myriad of troubles.”
Sam became angrier and wanted to smash his head into pulp. But he controlled the urge and said coldly.
”I don't give a fuck about what choice you have. I want the Abyss grass by month. Until then, don't even think about getting to meet her. If the grass is not in my hands by the end of the month, you and she both would wish she is dead.
Generally, I don't like threatening others using someone as a hostage, much less using the fact that the hostage is a woman. You should know what kind of possibilities await her if you don't keep your word.”
”YOU DARE?”
Sam snorted and said.
”Don't even think I would touch someone else's woman, I am not that filthy. But I can pay for someone else to do that dirty work. Anyway, judging from your reactions, I could just handover her to another noble from the Andhera Nation and they would definitely give the grass to me. Even though it might not be possible to be a fair exchange, I think me paying them with something extra apart from her is easy.
She must have committed a lot of crimes in your nation to be like this. So, you better be prepared.”
Sam stood up and was about to leave with her, But Dharkand jumped and held his legs as he looked at Sam with watery eyes.
”Sam, please don't do this. I promise I will keep my word. I will get the Abyss grass for you. I will get you as much as you want. Just leave her alone. Just let her go back to the sect.”
”Do you think I am soft persimmon you could squeeze as you like?”
Sam really wanted to kill both of these people. He really wished that Chatur was nearby and he could contact some other Yaksha right this instant and cut a deal with them. He has half-a-mind to yell in the castle and call out some people that might come out and meet him.
As if reading his thoughts, Dharkan said.
”Just give me a chance to explain, after that you can do as you wish. Please, just give me a chance to explain myself and redeem myself.”
”And why would I do that?”
”I don't have anything on me that could convince you, even my word might worth less than dirt for you because of what I did. Please, but just give me a chance.”
He started doing kowtows as he pleased Sam.
Sam looked at Night Charm who is weeping as she looked at Dharkan, he sighed and made her sit on the floor before saying.
”You have ten minutes.”
He sat on the chair and listened to them as he spoke.
It is actually a simple love story that became complicated because of the difference in statuses and the proud Night Charm who has enough of the oppression couldn't take it anymore and retaliated.
The thing is Night Charm is a daughter of some low-level noble within the capital. Generally, there is no way both of them would have enough contact due to this difference and the only reason they had a chance was due to Night Charm's talent.
She was enrolled into the Royal academy that only specializes in teaching high-class nobles and Royal scions, but she was enrolled due to her Shadow body constitution. An elder of the academy who is the most fearsome assassin of the entire kingdom took her in as a disciple.
