Chapter 587 Victory At Las

"Sigh... Little cousins, I was so bored in that vehicle... So I decided to see you all instead.

Hm... These peanuts are so good.

Eh... Do any of you want any?"

(*^*)

The glares that both Connor and Eli gave William, was enough to send anyone to an early grave.

Peanuts?

They were talking about betrayal here, and this bastard dared to talk about peanuts?

Dude!

Learn how to read a room, alright?

Connor placed his right hand on his chest as if trying to control his heart rate.

How hateful!

He looked at the traitor before him and couldn’t help but wonder if the guy had something loose in his head..... Or else, how could the bastard prefer this sort of idiot as a leader?

Landon looked at William and smiled wryly... Why was this dude so shameless?

Of course, Landon himself didn’t know that he was in fact the king of shamelessness.

William chewed his peanuts without a care in the world and calmly walked towards Zarius and Nicodemus.

"Sorry to have watched you suffer earlier on, young master!" They said respectfully.

William saved his hands as if telling them that it was a small matter.

"Eh?

Why are you all still hung up on that?

Aren’t I fine now?"

Eli and Connor looked at the traitors before finally gazing at William once more.

"Tell us one thing.

If these people are your men, then why didn’t they inform you about tonight’s attack?" Eli asked curiously.

"Hm?... Well, I guess they didn’t know as well right?" William said while facing his men too.

"Answering to the young master, this one had tried to get out information about why we were preparing for war.

But this one had made a terrible mistake and thought that his highness Eli would be taking the men to the Capital instead... Since word came in that Alec Barn was away.

With the way his highness Eli Barn spoke about killing Alec and seizing the throne, this one thought that the men were preparing to form the Capital and seize the throne while Alec was away.

That was why this one sent you a message detailing the plans to seize the Capital instead." Zarius said apologetically.

"Young master, this one had no idea that we were marching towards the base.

This one knows that his highness Connor had secretly made this base here, so as to watch his highness Eli and find an opportunity to take him down.

Recently, his highness Connor had gotten the help of an expert.

So he doesn’t share his plans out with us anymore.

Hence this one had assumed that we were marching out the deal with Eli Barn instead.

Young master, I sincerely apologize for my mistake.

Please punish me later on as you dim fit." Nicodemus said.

.

Hearing their explanations, Eli and Connor were taken aback.

They were angry, confused and curious as well.

Looking at their faces, it was clear that they had a thousand and one questions to ask.

So William decided to summarize all he knew for them.

"Cousins, in a nutshell.... when you all were still 12 years old, my family sent these men to your sides.

Of course at that time, they were first your attendants and bodyguards, since none of you were 15 yet.

So within this time, they built their credentials by gaining your trust.

Of course, we also gave them fake wives who were spies as well.

Bottom line, whenever they left to travel back to their ’village’ for vacations.... they were typically coming over to our base instead.

Cousins... They are what the Baymardians would refer to as ’Undercover Agents.’

So they have always been on our sides... And that was probably the reason why it was so hard for you to catch me and my family.

And to be honest, even if little cousin here didn’t come and save me... After I’m captured, men in your camps would’ve also freed me later on too.

So, I wasn’t worried from the onset.

Well, that’d all I have to say for now... So let’s round all this up, shall we?

I’m really hungry." William said while holding and holding his belly.

He was actually really hungry.

After battling for so long.... please!

His belly had begun rumbling!

Connor and Eli, on the other hand, felt like beating the bastard to death.

.

And so, with everything said and done... It didn’t even take up to 30 minutes, before the battle to finally be over.

Eli, Connor and the rest of their Captains and aides were locked up....and the rest of their men were either dead, heavily injured or surrounded by the Baymardians soldiers instead.

Of course, the next thing that Landon did, was to clear the entrance to the main building... As well as clear up the entrance to the secret tunnel too.

It took over 4 hours for them to do this.

And after that... William, Landon and some of the soldiers went out to look for William’s people.

After exiting the underground tunnel that led to the forest, William led the men to another underground shelter camp.

For sure, they had dealt with some ferocious beasts on their way to the shelter.

And funny enough, they had also been attacked by William’s men too... Who had initially mistaken them for Eli’s men instead.

When everyone heard that the crisis was finally over, they hugged each other merrily and made their way back into their base again.

Mona and Oden who didn’t even know that their son had stayed back, quickly thanked Landon when they heard the tale of how the battle went.

They smack William’s head and made him swear never to do that again.

"Hurry up and thank your cousin, you unfilial son!"

Many who had witnessed the scene, were so shocked that they didn’t even know how to react.

This was their fierce leader?

Who knew that he would be like a little kid before his parents and uncles?

Of course those who were William’s teachers growing up, only chuckled as they were quite used to seeing such scenes.

Even if one grew up, they would never stop being their parents’ child.

Landon couldn’t help but look around awkwardly, as he watched William interact with his parents.

He was glad to know that he wasn’t the only one who was treated like this too... Because mother Kim and Lucius were quite a handful as well.

And so, that day, the captured prisoners were sent to the dungeons... And the medics quickly treated all injured men, be it from the enemy side or not.

Of course, several people gathered the dead bodies all around and piled them up into 2: Does and Comrades.

Everyone knew that keeping their enemy’s ashes of dead bodies on the base would be bad luck... So why would they want to do that?

.

They cleared the place and also started fixing the broken entrances within the main building as well.

So with everything properly taken care of... It was time for Landon to finally get down to business.
