Chapter 62 – Mercenaries
Surprised once again by the child’s pushing force, Saxony broke out in sweat after washing.
He thought that it would be wrong if he just tried to receive it like this, and decided to switch from defense to offense.
The guy felt his momentum change, and he took a break again.
It was a perfect defensive stance. It was as if he was standing face to face with an impenetrable tower shield.
Spitting on the floor, Saxony used the method he usually uses when subduing young mercenaries.
That was aiming for the bottom.
There was nothing easier to kill than kids who had just started handling weapons. They react quickly to blades aimed at the face, chest, or abdomen, but are very weak against attacks aimed at the bottom.
Saxon swung his wooden sword from top to bottom, taking the top three strikes, he took two steps forward at him, and swung his sword straight down.
The guy moved his toes as if trying to avoid him.
Then, instead of striking the black earth, the tip of the wooden sword aimed at his ankle while drawing a curve.
Damn…!
The guy blocked the sword. Perhaps he was surprised, too, with sweat running down his brow.
Respond to this…?
Saxony admitted that these puppies weren’t rumbling around and playing sword fights like the neighborhood kids. But in the end, a kid was a kid.
Saxon put away his sword and circled around him.
As he held his posture, he looked at the eyes, the tips of his toes, and the tip of his sword as he wandered around.
The basics were solid.
Threatening him with a sense of danger, or trying to distract him by flicking the tip of his sword, to no avail.
“Hey… Who did you learn from? It’s quite…?”
When Saxony unknowingly spat out an admiring compliment, he seemed to be in a good mood.
In an instant, his chest opened.
The sword of Saxon, a veteran mercenary and veteran murderer who had already been in danger of dying by rolling on the battlefield many times, stabbed Ian’s stomach with a hook. I spit at the same time.
Fuck-!
Even though he was surprised by the sudden attack that made his eyes wide open, the guy who managed to block Saxon’s sword, was spit on his eyes and closed his eyes screaming ah.
It was as if the game was over there.
Saxony, who had moved forward with a hook, flinched as he tried to mercilessly strike the wooden sword at the man’s skull as he struggled with his arms.
He wasn’t surprised that he had almost killed someone without even knowing it. How many people he’s killed so far, you’d be surprised at just that…
Among the people he killed were a 3-year-old baby and a full-term pregnant woman.
Saxon was a veteran mercenary who was already good at killing. Because of his violent tendencies, he didn’t get many requests to appoint Saxon mercenaries, but he was sure of getting one job done.
Well killed, well buried.
The reason he stopped in surprise when he was about to smash the blonde haired kid’s head was the stinging feeling in the back of his neck.
He stopped his sword in mid-air and looked back involuntarily.
And he met the black eyes of a handsome kid looking at him.
He stood arrogantly with his arms crossed, glaring at the tip of Saxon’s sword. As if he would step out depending on where it was headed.
Swallowing his saliva, Saxon lowered the tip of his sword.
Then he closes his eyes and smiles.
Bad boy… The atmosphere was as if he had a dirty strategy and a kane.
“I-Ian…!”
The girl rushed to help the kid who had fallen to the floor while rubbing the eyes that had been hit by Saxon’s spittle.
And cowardly…! Swearing at him, he glared at him, but those golden eyes were so beautiful that Saxony swallowed once again, feeling a thirst that made the inside of his throat dry.
Mr. Beolryun looks so fucking ugly. Write it down…
“How is it? That guy.”
“Well, just like I said. Is it usable for my age? Just thinking about it makes me want to take him to my mercenary squad…”
His name was Ha Seo-joon or something like that…
After answering the guy’s question adequately, Saxony threw his wooden sword back at him.
Tak- The guy who took the wooden sword and put it on his waist.
The guy who shrugged his shoulders opened the way to the village.
“Thank you for coming to Dalian. It would have been of great help to him.”
Saxony wanted to swear at him, but it just lingered in his mouth. For some reason, I felt bad because I felt like I had volunteered for free.
This guy···. I don’t know what he was, but he wasn’t an ordinary kid.
For some reason, it looked like Kane’s plans would be disrupted. He fumbled for the dagger tucked into his waistband. Just kill them both here…?
However, I had no idea what kind of skills Seojun had.
Also, he had neither proper armor nor weapons.
At least, if I had at least one sword, I would have cut it right away… No. There’s no reason to ruin your plans. After all, if the bandit attacks, they’ll take care of themselves.
Saxony retrieved the hand he had brought close to the dagger, put it in his pocket, said it was a good fight—waving his other hand waving it, and walked down the road toward the village.
I could feel his gaze behind my back.
Either that or not, the face and body of a girl with light brown hair kept lingering in Saxony’s mind.
The thick lips chattering next to the blonde-haired kid, the flawless white nape of the neck, and the huge breasts that were not suitable for a young age…
My throat was sore. Wanted to have He didn’t want to pass it on to another cub.
Never···.

“What do you think I did wrong?”
To Seo-jun’s question, Ian, who was sitting cross-legged in his lotus position, hesitantly answered.
“Me, that. Excenter···. Shall?”
In a confident voice. Seojun is perfect for that! And put a balm on his forehead. Urg···! Ian frowned and grabbed his head. It was so painful that my bone was throbbing.
Lily flinched beside him, but didn’t move. It was because he had promised not to interfere with the practice unless he used excessive violence.
“Ouch… Bar, aren’t you careless?”
They were reviewing the duel with the man they had just had.
Seo-joon asked him why he was defeated, and Ian replied that he was careless. But when he said no, he couldn’t figure out what the correct answer was. Is it because you can’t avoid the droplets of saliva…?
Seojun sighed and said.
“It’s right to be vigilant.”
“Yes···? Then why stay up all night…!”
When Seo-jun raised his hand again, Ian quickly covered his forehead.
“What?”
“Ah, sin, sorry!”
Ian and Seojun quickly lowered their hands again and laughed.
“Your brother always said that, you bastard. I mean, say it with a bit more confidence. Yes?”
“Oh, come on, confidence. All right···.”
Seojun tapped Ian’s shoulder.
“You did well. It was a composition that you could win enough if it was purely swordsmanship. But fighting is not all. Were you embarrassed to spit in your eyes all of a sudden?”
“Yeah···! That, I didn’t expect that to happen at all…”
“The guys you’ll fight in the future will keep chivalry and won’t attack purely with swordsmanship. These guys will do anything to win. Spitting, headbutting, kicking, or pulling hair. And you have to keep in mind all kinds of bullshit, such as throwing sand or provoking parents. Because, you’re actually going to experience it. If you prepare in advance, you’ll feel a little bad and it’s over, but if you don’t know it and get hit, your eyes will turn around. Even my hands and feet are twisted. Then they will be what they want.”
After Seo-joon said that, he took out a canteen and took a sip of water.
He then sat on the back of a rock and looked at Lily next to him.
Why does Lily want to look at the one who is still? Why…? He asked through the shape of her mouth.
Seojun pointed at Lily with his chin and asked Ian.
“Okay, now that it’s like this, let’s make some assumptions. What if that mercenary takes Lily hostage? If you put a knife to Lily’s throat and threaten to kill her if she doesn’t surrender…?”
Stunned by Seo-jun’s question, the two – Ian and Lily looked at each other’s faces.
Ian twitched and pursed his lips before finally spitting out an answer.
“It looks like it will surrender.”
In response to Ian’s answer, Lily was in a good mood, but also put on a worried expression. What if that really happens…? Seemed to think.
Seo-joon snapped his fingers. He seemed to know that…
He even asked a question.
“Yeah, if you surrender, what do you think they will do? Huh? If that mercenary did it, what do you think he will do next?”
Ian, who was pondering, couldn’t bring himself to say what he had imagined, so he just shook his head saying he didn’t know.
Food – Seo-joon smiled and said.
“The mercenary will kill you with a single knife. Because? Leaving you alive would be dangerous. Then he will rape Lily mercilessly. Hey, Lily. Did you just see that bastard’s eyes?”
“…”
“Lily, Lily? What is that…”
When Lily didn’t answer her silence, Ian looked at her in surprise.
Lily had grown up with many of those glances from her men, so she was accustomed to the scrutiny and covetous gazes on her body, and she was sensitive. As much as her disgusted hair. So she knew very well. She could clearly feel the emotion in the man’s eyes.
Seojun asks again.
“How was it? His eyes.”
After a moment of silence, Lily replied.
“I was scared… More than those boys from Dejero who surrounded me then…”
Seo-joon shrugged his shoulders. Then he looked at Ian with a dumbfounded face.
“Now then, let’s answer again. Again, the same situation as before. What would you do if they took Lily hostage and ordered you to surrender…?”
At Seo-jun’s question, Ian, who had been thinking with his mouth shut, raised his eyes. This time, the eyes focused without trembling.
“I’m going to jump.”
“Why···? Lily must be in danger?”
“He’ll want Lily, and she’ll never kill her.”
At Ian’s answer, Seojun clapped his hands. With a satisfied smile.
He even got up from his seat.
“Today’s training ends here. Ian. Keep in mind. Living with a pretty wife is like living among thieves looking for treasure. You have to be strong and heartless to protect Lily. The moment you hesitate, the moment you show mercy to your enemies, think of losing Lily.”
“···Yeah!”
Ian replied in a loud voice.
Seo-jun laughed and tousled his hair. He then tore Lily’s hair beside him, and he walked first down the road.
Don’t touch my hair…! Really…!
Lily whimpered behind his back, quickly tidying up her hair, then stood up holding Ian’s outstretched hand.
It was time for everyone to go home.
