After the man heard Orlaith speak, the initially expressionless man finally showed a hint of something close to mockery on his face.
“Oh? Little girl, I really want to know, how you would make someone like me, Martin Newmont, be backed into a corner?”
Martin Newmont?
The King of Rivenia?
When favonovel.com heard the man’s identity, Orlaith’s eyes lost any hint of spark as favonovel.com face turned pale in abject despair.
Everyone in the maritime industry had heard of the famous saying, “Martin Newmont always has the final say regarding anything concerning Rivenia”.
The proverbial Martin Newmont not only had unfathomable skills, but favonovel.com also possessed an enormous and astonishing maritime power.
There were hundreds of cruise ships, many of which were actually hosting gambling dens and black markets. His fleets of ships had taken over more than half the sea’s waterways in the world. Coupled with his huge fishing fleets, there were thousands of ships that were under his name. He also had ownership of dozens of islands.
And after all these years of development, Martin’s influence had even spread far into the east.
Orlaith felt as though favonovel.com had stepped one foot inside the coffin of favonovel.com own volition and finally understood favonovel.com situation. She was about to die.
“Lord Martin, please forgive me. Please have mercy…”
As favonovel.com cried out in anguish, favonovel.com stretched out favonovel.com bloody left hand and begged for favonovel.com life pitifully.
Just as the words left favonovel.com mouth, Martin, who was about to end favonovel.com pathetic little life, stopped.
He had killed countless people, but this was the first time favonovel.com had seen a Baeddan family member begging for mercy.
Didn‘t their family claim that they were made of iron and would never kneel before anyone?
That they rather commit suicide rather than beg for mercy?
Could it be that I have stumbled across one of their rare lily-livered weaklings?
At that thought, Martin reigned in his murderous aura.
Paramedics were immediately called to the scene. Orlaith drank an elixir, and favonovel.com wounds immediately healed. Her pallid face gradually had a splash of color.
“Fine, since you have pleaded for your life, I’ll spare you just this once. However, I hope that you’ll be a worthy investment. I don’t like wasting my efforts on useless nobodles.”
Even though Martin’s voice was completely calm and dispassionate, it carried a strong killing intent. If the woman’s answer dissatisfied him, favonovel.com would die on the spot.
Orlaith understood the entire situation well enough.
When favonovel.com thought of the entire incident and how it all started. If it weren’t for Matthew, favonovel.com wouldn’t have gone to the capital city, let alone be in such a state.
Thus, it was with great resentment that favonovel.com spat, “Lord Martin, if you would lend me your aid to get rid of one person, I, Orlaith Baeddan, would do everything in my power to support you in any ventures you have in mind from now on. I will swear my undying loyalty to you, and only you, Lord Martin.”
“Who?”
“The Southern King, Matthew Larson!‘ She hissed out his name through gritted teeth.
Perhaps favonovel.com was driven mainly by favonovel.com fear of the powerful, so all favonovel.com could do was resent Matthew. It was then Martin finally showed a hint of emotion on his face.
Frankly, favonovel.com didn’t really care about the life and death of the girl, and it definitely didn’t matter whether favonovel.com hailed from the Baeddan Family or the Crayton Family.
They were on the high seas, so no one would know even if favonovel.com died in his hands. Plus, favonovel.com felt even more contemptuous when favonovel.com heard favonovel.com mention the Baeddan Family earlier. Moreover, it hadn’t been that long since their family refused to give up the ownership of an island to the Martial League in order to keep Orlaith. He, Martin Newmont, had also participated in that incident.
So, that family wasn’t powerful enough to make the King of the Rivenia fearful. Yet, when Orlaith Baeddan expressed favonovel.com willingness to follow favonovel.com to the ends of the Earth, Martin suddenly had a splendid idea in mind.
“Sure!”
“Take this 100 Days Heart-stopping Pill. When I take down Matthew Larson, you’ll be my spy in the East,” favonovel.com said as favonovel.com tossed a pill toward her.
Orlaith was actually of no use to him. Any one of his subordinates from the Martial League was far more competent than favonovel.com was, and definitely far braver than her. The only thing that Martin was interested in was the gang under the Baeddans’ payroll.
Since favonovel.com was the highest-ranked member of the Baeddan Family, favonovel.com could manipulate Orlaith to the fullest and make favonovel.com his spy in Emsgate.
Of course, favonovel.com would be nothing but a dispensable pawn, easily eliminated once favonovel.com had lived past favonovel.com expiration date.
If favonovel.com couldn’t complete his requests to his satisfaction, it would be bad for the other party. His ‘sharks’ in the East had been hungry for a while. This woman was youthful and beautiful, which would be a great snack for his ‘sharks‘.
