Chapter 353: [Bonus ]Extortion

After hearing Angus's explanation, Jacob immediately releases his mana pressure towards the surroundings and increases the temperature of the surroundings.

"I suppose the Temple of Death has their own explanation." said Jacob.

Before Priest Saya could say anything, one of her subordinates voiced their own.

"It's a lie. He is lying. S-Sid is just trying to get rid of that monster kid, but suddenly that girl stops him." said the guard in a hurry while pointing at Jayna.

'Dumbass!!' thought Priest Saya while knowing the complicated matter.

"Ohh.. Did you know that she is actually the Fourth Princess, Jayna Heart?" asked Jacob as he increased his mana pressure.

"N-No.. I swear it is all on Sid. Sid is the one that did it on his own." said the guard in a hurry.

"Priest Saya, Is there anything else you want to say?" said Jacob while glaring at Saya.

"I truly apologize for my subordinate behavior. Please let me compensate for it." said Priest Saya.

"Good. Then, how about giving us all of your healing art, spells, and knowledge." intercepted Angus.

Everyone immediately looked at Angus.

"What?? It makes sense, right? They try to assassinate royalty, the future pillar of the Heart kingdom. They should be glad that I am not making them 'sing' right now." said Angus.

"T-This.." said Priest Saya.

"Oi… Priest Saya, let me ask you, what if your high priest or someone important in the Temple of Death gets assassinated? Are you going to let the preparator just 'mere' compensation." asked Angus coldly.

Priest Saya could only stay silent and couldn't answer Angus's question.

"Priest, you can't comply with this outrageous demand." said the guard.

"Why not?" asked Angus.

"This is complete extortion. A daylight robbery." rebuked the other guard.

"During my travel doing mission, I heard that the Temple of Death mission is to help the poor and cure the sickness. If you gave us your healing art knowledge, wouldn't it mean you could cure the sickness faster and better as more people know your art?" explained Angus.

"Or… that mission and preaching about goodness is just bullshit as you have a hidden ulterior motive?" added Angus.

"Nonsense. How dare you question our teaching and sacred mission?" replied the guard.

"Then, you shouldn't have a problem giving us your healing art knowledge? This is just a small compensation after you tried to assassinate our princess, no?" asked Angus.

"I.. I am sorry, young master Angus. I don't have enough authorization for such compensation." said Priest Saya.

"Then, talk to your superior. This is a huge matter. You attempted to assassinate a royalty here. How about you give us a reply until noon at twelve o'clock whether you agree to our demand or not? Is that okay with you, Your Majesty?" asked Angus while looking at the sky.

Suddenly, King Leon appeared in the sky with a smile.

"Yeah, I agree. Otebon!!" shouted King Leon.

Then, a muscular man filled with scar wearing armor with a burning spear emblem comes and arrives at King Leon's side.

"Yes, Your Majesty." said the Extermination squad leader.

"Pass my command. The moment the Temple of Death didn't give us satisfactory compensation. I want you to hunt down every single priest or people that are affiliated with them without any exception." said King Leon loudly.

"As you wish, Your Majesty." replied Otenbon respectfully.

"Good, you may be dismissed. I am looking forward to your reply, O Temple of Death." said King Leon while glancing at people from the Temple of Death before disappearing from the spot.

As soon as the King is gone, the people from the Temple of Death slump on the ground as they feel like they are just escaping from Death. The moment King Leon appears, they feel unimaginable pressure and make it hard for them even to breathe.

If it is not because of their intense mind training, they may have already gone crazy receiving full pressure from King Leon. 

After getting their bearings, "T-Then, please excuse us." said Priest Saya.

"Sure, let me again this noon. Make sure you practice your singing. I don't want you to break like this little shit just after singing a little bit." said Angus while stabbing Sid with a dagger made of flame.

However, there is no scream from Sid like before. If people look closely, they can see the light in Sid's eyes is gone. He is just like an empty husk without soul or consciousness. Seeing this, everyone knows that Sid is truly broken.

When someone receives tremendous pain over and over again, their mind starts to break down and shut itself in an attempt to protect themself. This makes the person either alive or dead. For the believer of the lady of death, this is the worst situation they want to enter into.

Just as they thought it was done, "Hmm… If I am not wrong, Master Valeron recently complained about the lack of living testing subjects. Well, it seems he will get a lot of test subjects after this." said Angus with a smile.

Seeing Angus's smile, they feel like seeing a devil waiting to devour their soul smiling at them. The group from the Temple of Death immediately fasten their speed and escape from the crazy young master in front of them.

"Haa.. You really are full of trouble. Just a month ago, I heard you almost exploded the whole Fortress. Now, this matters. Can't you just stop giving this old man more work." said Jacob.

"Hahaha… Don't worry, besides if they are truly not stupid, they will agree to our demand. If not, then let's just say we get a lot of stuff too from them." said Angus.

"Well, I hope so." replied Jacob, uncertainty.

"Father, are we so weak that we cannot even protect our loved one?" asked Angus in a serious tone.

Jacob is surprised at Angus' sudden question before smiling.

"Yeah, true. We are not so weak that we cannot even protect our loved ones. Don't worry, Angus. I will make sure the Temple of Death pays for this matter." said Jacob before flying away.

"Sure. Good luck out there." said Angus.

"Haa… You are really one kind of student, Angus." said the headmaster Antonio.

"Hahaha… I will take that as a compliment. Anyway, headmaster, could you please send this piece of shit to master Valeron? Just say he is a new test subject." said Angus while lifting Sid's disfigured body with mana effortlessly.

"Err.. S-Sure." said the Headmaster as he took Sid away.

"Angus!!" called Jayna while hugging him.

"There.. There.. Everything is fine. See, nothing is happening to me." said Angus with a caring smile while patting Jayna's head.

His expression is completely different than when he talks to the Temple of Death. No one believes that such a young man with a good smile was just torturing and extorting the Temple of Death a few minutes ago. At this moment, Millie strengthens herself and approaches Angus.

"Angus, I.. I.." said Millie.

"Millie." called Angus as he cut her sentence.

"I don't know what you experience during the mission or what connection you have with the Temple of Death. But, you need to remember your roots and think carefully next time. Actually, I don't even care if this happens to other people."

"But, they just touch my bottom line. They dare almost to harm my two treasured people in this world. What if I happen to be late or not here? Do you think you could stop this imbecile from hurting Jayna and Anna?"

"They should be glad that I don't start hunting down all that stupid member from Temple of Death now. Because that's what I will do regardless of whether they gave compensation or not."

"Still, I am not doing it for two reasons. First, too much work, Second you still need a good healing art teacher. So, next time you need to think wisely because I will not be as merciful as right now when it comes to Jayna and Anna matter." said Angus before dragging Jayna inside.

Seeing the matter already solved peacefully, Ian and Axel also leave Mia and Millie alone.

"Millie." called Mia.

"M-Mia, Did what I did wrong?" asked Millie.

"Stupid Millie!!" as Mia hit Millie's head.

"Ouch.." screamed Millie.

"It doesn't matter what you are doing is right or wrong. Just do what your heart believes without getting influenced by others. I am sure Angus also didn't care if you were still learning from the Temple of Death." said Mia.

"Ehh.. But.." said Millie.

"Millie, Angus is mad at you because you try to side with the outsider while they try to harm Lady Jayna and Anna. If someone dares to harm you and others try to protect him, I will also become mad." explained Mia.

"I don't know what kind of experience you get at the Temple of Death during your mission. But, I hope you will not forget your roots and friends like Angus said. Besides that, I will always cheer on you." added Mia.

"M-Mia. I-I am sorry. Huaa.." said Millie while hugging Mia and tearing up.

"There.. There… Don't be such a cry baby. You are already a full grown-up.." said Mia while patting Millie's head.
