303 I Said So (2/2)

Jason was somewhat disappointed, and he said unhappily, ”When you said you were going to give him gold, he still didn't let up?”

”Rather, he seemed angrier.” Torrey smiled bitterly.

Jason thought for a moment and said, ”Since you didn't succeed, the compensation will be the same as it was.”

”Sir, please give us another chance.” Torrey stood up abruptly. ”Your terms are too harsh. It will cost us everything we have.”

”At least it's better than not being alive, isn't it?”

Torrey's teeth were chattering, but he absolutely didn't dare to retort a single word.

”You're lucky I'm the one who came here.” Jason stood up and smirked. ”If it was that reckless Hawk, it wouldn't be over until half of you were dead.”

Jason took out a white handkerchief, wiped his hands, then threw it in Torrey's face and turned to leave.

The greatly humiliated Torrey's eyes were bloodshot, but he still didn't dare to say another word.

Jason and the other player headed out of the manor.

The player following Jason said, ”Looks like Roland isn't falling for it. He won't join forces with the other minor nobles, so what's next?”

”If Roland dared to join forces with those nobles for the sake of profit, then we could upload this to the forum and discredit him,” Jason said with great annoyance. ”I just didn't think that Roland wouldn't fall for a down payment of three hundred gold coins and a monthly flow of fifty gold coins. If he's not a glutton for this, then what is he a glutton for? Beauty? We can only put this matter aside for now. Let's clean up these nobles and merchants who took our money, and then we'll clean up Roland when we get the chance.”

The player on the side clicked his tongue. ”That Roland brat is too lucky.”

After taking two steps, just outside the entrance to Torrey's manor, Jason suddenly stopped, then stared ahead. ”Looks like it wasn't luck.”

The player next to Jason froze for a moment and looked ahead, then noticed two people slowly walking out of the dark roadside grove in front of him. He saw that it was Roland and Andonara, who was wearing the Queen's crown.

Jason stared at Roland and wondered if he could sophisticate his way out of this.

But that was when two magic spiders sprang up behind him and swept quickly past him. They scuttled under Roland's legs and up his robes, then paused on Roland's shoulders.

Under the faint moonlight, the two magic spiders shone light blue.

It was as if Jason saw both of the magic spiders laughing at him.

There was no possibility of playing dumb.

Roland stared at the other party and said slowly, ”It seems like Silver Wings is coming to screw me over, right?”

Jason didn't say anything.

”Let's see, what's in it for you to ruin my reputation?” Roland's smile under the dark moonlight held the grimness of a villainous boss, mainly because his eyes were just too calm and had a weird coldness to them in spite of the smile. ”Force me to leave Delpon, or force me to delete my account and start over? Or even force me to leave the game? Then you can have exclusive control of Delpon, including taxes.”

Jason's bland expression loosened a bit.

Roland shook his head. ”Even taking away the only benefit that was previously promised to me, it seems that Silver Wings's financial chain has reached the verge of collapse.”

”So what if you know? What are you going to do? Kill me a few times?” Jason said with a smile.

”From now on, you Silver Wings guild members, except for the docks, don't take another step inside of Delpon, or I'll kill you when I see you.” After a pause, Roland tilted his head up slightly, his eyebrows raised. Even though he was about the same height as Jason, this expression and gesture made him look as though he was looking down on the other side from above. ”I said so.”
