Chapter 379 What is this? (2/2)

Matthew and the rest have already finished off the majority of the agents that were sent outside to deal with them. It was a long battle against powerful enemies, and of course, Matthew couldn't get out of it unscathed. He found the fight especially difficult when the person called Hektor appeared.

He couldn't understand it but even though Hektor was powerful, Matthew felt that throughout the fight Hektor was holding back. Even as Hektor was dying it felt like Hektor never went all out, and there were also those incomprehensible words he said in the end.

”It doesn't matter if I die, I am after all nothing more than a fake... Heheheh, in the end, I will always win. My revenge will finally come true... Are you watching Patricia!” As he screamed those final words Hektor died. Matthew was confused and didn't know what to make of that, but it didn't really matter to him since they won.

Matthew and the others went back to the position where they set up camp. When they arrived they were surprised to see a bloody Kyle. Even without eyes, Kyle's senses were amazing as he heard the people approaching him, he took out one of his rifles and pointed it at the direction he heard the sounds.

”Kyle!” When Kyle heard the familiar voice of Sora, he sighed in relief.

”What happened to you?” Viktor came closer and started to look at Kyle's condition.

”You know this and that, nothing much. Just fought a crazy lady that wanted my eyes and killed her. Unfortunately, she took my eyes, well I guess she can consider those a farewell gift.” Kyle said jokingly as he chuckled.

Leo who looked to be guarding Kyle's body jumped towards Matthew. ”Thanks, Leo for keeping an eye on him.” Matthew patted Leo's head as he whispered thanks to his cat.

”Sorry Kyle, I don't think you'll be able to see again... She wrecked it pretty good in there, she really did pluck out your eyes.”

When everyone heard what Sora said, there was a long silence.

”It's alright as long as I'm alive everything can be fixed. If I lost my eyesight then so be it, I have already accumulated enough wealth to live a life of luxury... When I get back I even plan to ask a girl I'm in love with to marry me.” Kyle despite his wounds, happily smiled as he thought of Sarah.

Hearing what Kyle said everyone happily congratulated him. Though the situation looked bleak, the others still found hope in this situation. This was the life of a mercenary, it was pretty normal.

”It's going to be a grand wedding right,” Luke spoke in excitement.

”Of course. Even if I won't be able to see it I want it to be the most spectacular wedding ever. I even plan to ask Michel to design and make the wedding dress as well as the dresses and suits for everyone else.” Kyle happily responded.

”Yeah, that's what I'm talking about! I can finally get a suit made by Michel. Even though I ask a hundred times she would never agree to make me a personal suit.” Sora couldn't help but smile at the news.

Matthew who was watching at the sidelines was a bit confused, these people were in the middle of enemy territory, but they were still acting like they were talking inside a bar. After a while, Matthew simply sighed, 'I guess this is how real mercs act.'
