Chapter 273: Scheme (1/2)
Aquas Bar, one of the most famous bars in the city. It was located in the core region of the city, a high-end bar that not all people could enter.
In the private room of Aquas Bar, the four Templar Knights gathered. Even though they were in the bar, none of the knights had drinks. There was no fancy light, but it was just a dimmed room.
The sixth Templar Knight, Jake had his head slumped on the table. A light snore filled the private room. Ben, the third Templar Knight had his usual straight face.
”Where is he? He is a minute late already,” Hardy complained while yawning. He was bored already from waiting.
Not long after his complaint, the door of the room opened. A figure with a black hood entered the room. The figure closed the door and sat across the four Templar Knights.
”How is it?” Reus asked out the figure.
”I already told Roman where they are about, and I hear that he almost sent all his knights out to capture them, all six Grand Royal Knights lead the attack,” the figure replied.
”Woah!? Almost all his knights? What does he want from our target? This makes me curious,” Hardy was surprised when he heard the figure's words.
”His goal is clear, he wants the Supreme Blessing. That slick old man wants to trade our target with the blessing for sure,” Reus immediately guessed Roman Waskin's thought immediately.
Jake, who had been sleeping, raised his head. Even though he just woke up from his sleep, his eyes were clear open, ”Should we eradicate those knights? They are taking the church too easy, or should we raid Roman's residence directly now?” His voice was calm but his face made a sinister smile.
Ben also opened his eyes, ”We can do that,” he nodded while glancing toward Reus. Their head was Reus, all plans made by him. Even Ben, the strongest among them, listened to Reus.
”We don't need to do that, the plan is simple. We let them fight while we reap the benefit. If they can capture the man, that must be with a big price, we can easily take the man back from them. Just tell Roman that his knights are killed by the man when that happens,” Reus shrugged.
”If our target can kill all the knights that are less likely to happen, we can capture the man. He should be exhausted by that time, six Grand Royal Knights and hundreds of Royal Knights,” the fifth Templar Knight continued explaining his plan.
”If this is so easy, then why does the Saintess call all of us?” Hardy questioned Reus, ”You better don't underestimate the Goddesses' order, Reus!”
”Then do you think our target can kill all the Royal Knights by himself? From the information, his party members are not that strong, the only trouble is the man. You don't think he can kill all the Royal Knight by himself, right?” Reus questioned back at Hardy. The fourth Templar Knight fell into a deep silence, that was something hard to believe.
”Let's stop the pointless argument,” Jake stood up and glanced at Hardy while yawning, ”If you are worried too much, we can watch them from afar.”
”Let's do that,” The third Templar Knight stood up and without saying any words, he headed out of the room. Hardy and Jake followed Ben outside too.
Reus let out a sigh, he had no choice but to follow his comrades. He threw a bag of Emerald coins onto the table, ”10 Emerald Coins!”
”It's my pleasure working with you, call me anytime if you need something,” the figure with the hood took the bag as Reus waved his hand back.
