Chapter 476 Waiting for Revenge
Ailin thought about returning to the Pros Empire and exposing Myserlo's crimes.
But he quickly rejected the idea.
While recuperating in Birita Town, he tried every possible way to gather information. By the time he recovered from his injuries, he had gathered almost all the information.
He learned that Myserlo had deliberately injured himself and faked a situation where a group of people were in distress in the Valley of the Wind, his brother died, and four of his squire knights were missing. Only he was seriously injured and was rescued by Colin Hunter, the captain of the Apocalypse Star.
In order to thank Colin Hunter for saving his life, he gave him a large amount of gold coins and commissioned him to build a luxurious coffin for his deceased brother.
After he was able to get out of bed and walk, he hired a group of people to escort his and his brother's coffins and took a ship back to the Pros Empire. Two months had passed since Ailin recovered from his injuries.
As for the Apocalypse Star Adventure Team, they enjoyed themselves for a week with a large amount of gold coins and left the town of Birita happily.
Ailin knew that Myserlo was treacherous and cunning, and must have made all the necessary preparations after returning to the Pros Empire. He had no evidence, his face was disfigured, his voice was mute, and he had no power, so he could not bring him down at all.
In addition, he was heavily in debt due to his injuries and had to stay in Birita Town to work and earn money to pay for his medical expenses.
Ailin, with his ugly disfigured face, was looking for a job but encountered obstacles at every turn until the former owner of Helena Tavern took a fancy to his brute strength and hired him as a porter.
The porter's salary is so meager that he needs to work for three years to pay off the expensive medical bills.
At that time, Ailin was disheartened and carried the goods numbly, day after day, without any hope.
One day, there was a disturbance in the tavern and all the thugs were knocked down. Ailin stepped forward and knocked down all the troublemakers with the sword in his hand.
At that moment, he rekindled the swordsman's soul.
He could no longer afford to be discouraged. The only way he could avenge his master was to improve his strength.
Afterwards, although Ailin remained silent, his attitude towards life completely changed.
He accepted the boss's invitation and became a thug and porter in the tavern. When he was not working, he practiced sword skills diligently, striving to become a great swordsman as soon as possible.
The thugs' wages were higher than those of the porters, and he soon paid off his debts.
The Valley of the Wind is an adventurer's paradise, and groups of demon hunters often venture here. In order to avoid being recognized by familiar people, Ailin shaved his head, wore a mask all day, wrapped his sword in cloth, and disguised himself as an unknown porter.
For twenty-seven years, Colin Hunter has taken Apocalypse Star on adventures in the Valley of the Wind many times.
The enemy reappeared, Ailin was filled with hatred and almost lost his mind and rushed forward to fight.
However, he forced himself to hold it back.
Colin Hunter was stronger than him, and he always went out with his teammates. Rushing forward alone would be tantamount to seeking death.
Ailin could only lie in wait and wait for his chance to strike.
After fifteen years, he was finally promoted from an intermediate swordsman to a senior swordsman.
With his strength greatly increased, he no longer swallowed his anger.
When the Star of Apocalypse appeared again in the town of Birita, he secretly followed the lone members and assassinated them silently.
After his teammate died, Colin Hunter launched a high-profile search for the murderer. After three days of fuss, he couldn't find any clues and the case was eventually dropped.
Over the next twelve years, members of Apocalypse Star died one after another unexpectedly, and now only Colin Hunter is left.
With almost a teammate dying every year, Colin Henling went from being furious at first to becoming numb later on.
If old teammates die, just replace them with new ones.
It's an adventure, so it's normal to lose teammates.
"...I'm now a low-level greatsword master, and I'm capable of fighting Colin Hunter!" Ailin looked at Hector with a sharp gaze, "Master, Colin Hunter is leading his team to the town again today!"
Kill Colin Hunter, and it's Myserlo's turn next.
Hector saw the hatred in his eyes, stood up, walked to him, stretched out his arms and hugged him tightly.
"Uncle Ailin—that's enough!" He closed his eyes and said firmly, "Leave the rest to me!"
Suddenly falling into the young man's broad arms, Ailin couldn't help but feel dazed.
The once young master has grown into a strong and reliable man.
"Yes, Uncle Ailin, leave Colin Hunter to us!" Shu Li listened attentively, receiving the telepathic magic from Kumandi. He raised his eyebrows and smiled brightly, "He's here."
Ailin:?
There was a knock on the door of the courtyard, and Shu Li actively went to open it.
Soon, the second team of Team Light came back carrying a big black bag.
Budno threw the big black bag to the ground and rubbed his shoulders. "Hiss, it's so heavy."
The others gathered around, and Hector kicked the big black bag, but the "thing" inside didn't move.
"Dead?" he asked in surprise.
"Not dead," Kumandi said. "He was drunk and passed out."
Siti took Nasha's hand and said to the crowd, "You guys take your time to interrogate her. We'll go change clothes first."
The dress was too tight and stained with wine, making it uncomfortable to wear. She couldn't wait to change back into her loose magic robe.
Seeing them awkwardly tugging at their skirts, Shu Li smiled and said, "Go!"
It's really hard for them tonight.
Siti and Nasha immediately went back to their own courtyard to change clothes.
Ailin finally came to his senses and looked at the room full of young magicians. He walked to the big black bag in confusion and started to untie the bag. When he saw Colin Hunter's sleeping face, his eyes widened in surprise.
"How did you... catch him?"
Colin Hunter was cautious, and as his teammates died one by one, he never stayed alone.
When Ailin was worrying about what to do, he never expected that several young magicians would easily kidnap Colin Hunter.
"Hey, it's easy to catch him!" Dizio curled his lips in disdain. "This guy is lustful. He fell for it after just a little temptation."
Ailin was stunned, remembering the two female magicians who had just said they were going to change clothes.
Shu Li hurriedly asked, "Nasha and Siti didn't suffer any loss, did they?"
Angel waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, no!"
Shu Li breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good."
Amanda asked curiously, "Tell me, how did you catch him?"
Kumandi took out his notebook, opened it to a certain page, and handed it to him: "Read it yourself!"
"Huh?" Amanda took the notebook and saw that it was full of drawings.
Shu Li leaned over to take a look.
Wow, it’s actually a sketch comic strip!
She is indeed a top student.
Simply put, the four goblins, Kumandi, Angel, Disio, and Budno, found the bar where Colin Hunter was and went in to drink.
They would wait until Colin Hunter was drunk before taking action.
Colin Hunter had a good alcohol tolerance and couldn't get drunk in a short time, so they ordered a table of snacks and ate and drank while waiting.
An hour later, Colin Hunter was tipsy.
Kumandi used magic to tell Nasha and Siti that it was time for them to perform.
Nasha and Siti, wearing heavy makeup and sexy clothes, walked into the pub in a charming manner. When they passed Colin Hunter's table, they cast a seductive glance at him.
Colin Hunter was so stunned that he couldn't take his eyes off them and looked at them with lustful eyes.
Nasha and Siti suppressed their nausea, sat down at a table near them, and asked the waiter for fruit wine.
Although Colin Hunter and his teammates were interested in both ladies, they sat back and did nothing.
Kumandi knew he was cautious and winked at Angel.
Angel stood up, holding a glass of wine, and walked gracefully to the table of Nasha and Siti, and politely asked if he could have a drink with him.
Siti acted surprised.
"Oh, of course, I like young and handsome magicians the best!"
She answered in a pretentious tone, raised her glass and clinked it with Angel's.
After drinking a glass of wine, Angel naturally stayed and sat down to chat and laugh with them, looking very happy.
Seeing this, Colin Hunter's eyes were blazing with jealousy.
However, no matter how jealous he was, he remained calm.
After the death of his old teammates on Apocalypse Star, he became suspicious and hadn't looked for a woman to love in Birita Town for a long time.
After all, when you're with a woman, you can't lead other teammates.
The town of Birita is too weird, he dare not be alone.
Kumandi kicked Budno, who was eating voraciously, under the table.
Budno puffed out his cheeks and looked up at Kumandi.
Kumandi shook his head slightly, indicating that it was time to act.
Budno quickly swallowed the food in his mouth, took out a clean handkerchief to wipe the corner of his mouth, picked up the wine glass, and walked to the next table.
"Hey, can I join in?"
Nasha looked at him critically for a moment, then raised the corners of her mouth into a charming smile. "Who could resist a magician as lovely as you?"
Budno sat down next to her and said with sparkling eyes, "No, no, no, I'm not cute. You're the cute one."
Nasha laughed out loud at his silly look.
"Huh? Did you order foie gras, too?" Budno said, pointing to the dishes on the table. "This tavern has delicious foie gras. We also have braised beef, peanuts, and grilled crucian carp..."
Foodies only have eyes for delicious food. Budno’s joining them greatly increases their appetite. The atmosphere at the table is relaxed and cheerful, making the two beautiful girls laugh continuously.
Colin Hunter was burning with jealousy and drank gloomily. Seeing this, his teammates at the same table encouraged him.
"Go ahead if you want! These two magicians are like weaklings, just send them away."
The half-drunk Colin Hunter ripped open his collar, feeling a conflict within himself.
Seeing that the time was right, Angel decided to take drastic measures.
"Beautiful ladies, may I have the honor of inviting you to spend the evening with me?"
Siti rolled her eyes, swirled her goblet, and flirted seductively. "There are two ladies here. Which one do you want to invite?"
Angel said with a smile, "I'm fine with either. If you don't mind...you two can come together."
"Bang--"
Colin Hunter could no longer sit still. He pounded the table and strode over.
"With your small body, can you satisfy two ladies at the same time?" He said mockingly, "Boy, your hair hasn't grown out yet, has it?"
Angel immediately showed an insulted expression and his face flushed. "You...you...are rude!"
Colin Hunter looked down upon weak magicians the most. He rolled up his sleeves, showing off his muscular body, raised his thick eyebrows, and asked in a pretentious tone, "Beautiful ladies, as long as you agree to date me, I promise to satisfy you."
Siti seemed startled. She exchanged glances with Nasha and looked at the burly swordsman with curiosity.
Nasha smiled and whispered into Siti's ear, her beautiful violet eyes full of affection.
Colin Hunter was so horny after being stared at that he threw a large bag of gold coins onto the table with a "whoosh" sound and said arrogantly, "I have money, lots of money, you can spend it as you like."
Prostitutes just want money.
The more beautiful a woman is, the more greedy she is. Colin Hunter, who often deals with women, has a deep understanding of this.
Angel finally reacted. He also threw out a large bag of gold coins and said angrily, "I... I have money too!"
As Angel's partner, Budno couldn't let his friend get frustrated, so he also threw down his heavy purse. "More than money? We have plenty of money!"
Siti exclaimed softly, "Oh!", her charming face full of joy.
Seeing this, Colin Hunter's teammates came over to help and threw money bags on the table.
Budno immediately called out to Kumandi and Desio.
Soon, the table was piled with money bags, which made Siti and Nasha very happy.
"Okay, stop arguing," Siti said coquettishly. "In the pub, we'll just follow the rules—a drinking contest! Whoever wins gets to go with us."
"Good idea!" Budno high-fived. "I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. Do you dare to challenge me in a drinking contest?"
Colin Hunter said disdainfully, "What are you afraid of? Come on!"
Budno rolled up his sleeves and shouted, "Come on! Waiter, bring the wine!"
So everyone put away their wallets and started drinking.
On the last page of the comic strip, all five members of the Demon Hunter Group were drunk, and Budno wiped his mouth with a reluctant look.
He really can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk.
"Then we carried drunk Colin Hunter over in a black bag."
