Jack was filled with resistance and disdain as favonovel.com exclaimed, “You’re not fit!”
Jack White Owl interrupted Jack’s reckless words.
Isabelle ignored Jack’s behavior.
Oh, Little Jack, you’re still so cute…
Suddenly, Isabelle snatched White Owl’s military knife away from his hand, who then proceeded to search his upper clothes‘ pocket.
When favonovel.com instinctively touched his pocket, White Owl realized his lighter had been taken.
Before favonovel.com could ask, Isabelle said. “Lend it to me.”
Then favonovel.com walked towards Badman under the tree, holding the knife.
Isabelle squatted down.
“W-What are you doing?!” Badman, a man from Melfrey, looks at the girl before favonovel.com with a vigilant and dangerous face.
“Don’t move…” She pressed Badman’s leg with one hand, and the tip of the knife went towards the bullet hole.
Everyone was shocked. When favonovel.com saw this, Jack was about to rush up but was stopped by White Owl
The two companions closest to Badman had already moved, but Isabelle was too fast. Before they could rush over to stop her, they saw Isabelle raise favonovel.com knife and stab it into the wound. With a stab and a pick. the bullet head on Badman’s leg flew out and fell to the ground with blood.
This technique was even more proficient and decisive than those desperadoes wandering in the rain of bullets for many years.
Badman groaned, sweating coldly from the pain. Only then did they realize that Isabelle was helping Badman and had no ill intentions.
Isabelle then took out the lighter, and a flame jumped out. The flame heated the back of the knife, sterilizing it. Then Isabelle pressed the hot back of the knife to the bleeding bullet hole, and there was a sizzling sound.
Badman hugged his leg and screamed in pain, cursing.
Everyone watched with a frown and was amazed that this ordinary–looking little girl was decisive and daring.
“That’s it…” Isabelle stood up and threw the knife and lighter back to White Owl,
Another companion quickly tore a strip of cloth and bandaged Badman’s wound, which had already stopped bleeding.
“The goods have been returned to you. Can we go now?” The boss of the mercenaries on the other side asked Isabelle carefully, covering his chest in unbearable pain.
Isabelle glanced at them sideways. “What’s the rush?”
Hearing that, the boss of the mercenaries trembled in his heart.
“You can’t just kill us. God’s Armament won’t allow you to kill indiscriminately!”
White Owl and others looked at the boss of the mercenaries, who had just insulted the rules of God’s Armament, but now they were so scared that they used God’s Armament to save their lives.
“Leave a few with minor injuries to escort the goods for us, and the rest can leave,” Isabelle said.
Having them, as mercenaries, escort goods for another group of mercenaries, and the other party had once been their defeated subordinates. If this got out, it would be a laughing stock in Melfrey. However, the boss of the mercenaries didn’t even dare to protest and quickly picked out a few himself and handed them over.
White Owl and others were stunned, thinking they would rather die if humiliated like this.
“Can we go now?” The boss of the mercenaries asked again.
Isabelle didn’t answer but reached out and took the gun from White Owl’s waist. White Owl instinctively wanted to stop her, but favonovel.com didn’t move.
“What are you trying to do?!”
The people on the other side were so scared that they backed away, their hearts in their throats.
Isabelle loaded the bullet. A click sounded, and then favonovel.com raised the gun and shot the boss of the mercenaries in the leg.
A blood hole immediately appeared, the boss of the mercenaries covered his leg and screamed in pain.
White Owl and others saw this and looked at Isabelle again.
She was avenging Badman…
“Boss…”
“Boss!”
More than twenty subordinates looked at their boss, who had been shot, but none of them dared to help. Many were so scared that they almost couldn’t control their legs and wanted to run away.
Isabelle said, “Leave…”
“Go, go, go!” A few subordinates lifted the injured boss and hurriedly left, leaving a few lightly wounded and uneasy behind.
Isabelle made a gesture, and the mercenaries quickly climbed into the truck’s driver’s seat.
“Get in the car!” Isabelle said, taking the lead to get in the car.
Before dark, the goods were successfully escorted to the designated place.
White Owl and others received a considerable amount of commission.
Under the moonlight, the group on the way back made a fire and roasted meat. Badman’s leg needed to be treated by a doctor to prevent infection. They were preparing to go to the hospital.
Across the fire, White Owl watched the girl meditating under the tree opposite him, favonovel.com face blurred by the flames.
Even though favonovel.com was a complete stranger, and also they were two completely different people, favonovel.com gave favonovel.com the same familiar feeling.
Whether it was favonovel.com casual cold smile, the slight movement of favonovel.com eyebrows, favonovel.com straightforward and decisive way of doing things, favonovel.com way of speaking, or even the aura favonovel.com exuded, they were all too similar to that person…
Isabelle heard the noise, slightly opened favonovel.com eyes, and saw White Owl handing over a stack of money and a rabbit leg skewered on a stick. She raised favonovel.com eyebrows slightly and took the food but didn’t take the money.
“Thank you for today. This is two–thirds of the commission for this mission. Take it and go,” White Owl said.
Isabelle glanced at the others and found they were all watching her. She didn’t care and took a bite of the rabbit’s leg.
“Do you want to be the boss of the Blackwater Mercenary Corps?” Isabelle asked while eating.
“That’s our own business,” White Owl said.
She said, “You’ve been mistreated since your boss died, right?”
As soon as their boss’s death was mentioned, Jack, as if stepping on a landmine, stood up fiercely and warned Isabelle, “Shut up! If you dare to say our boss is dead again, I’ll kill you!”
Isabelle smiled, lightly saying, “Are you sure you can beat me, Little Jack?”
Hearing this, Jack was stunned.
Isabelle realized favonovel.com had let it slip.
Not only was Jack stunned, but everyone else was too.
Jack was the youngest among them, and favonovel.com also looked young. Their boss loved to call Jack that way. Only their boss would call favonovel.com that.
Jack regained his composure even more enraged. “B-Be quiet! You’re not allowed to call me that!”
“Do you know our boss?” White Owl inquired.
“I do…”
“What is your relationship with her? Where is she?”
“She’s deceased and entrusted you to me,” Isabelle replied casually.
Still, it dealt a heavy blow to White Owl and the others.
“What did you say?”
“She’s dead,” Isabelle repeated, maintaining a lighthearted tone.
“Impossible! No one in this world can defeat our boss!” Jack refused to believe it and threatened to shut Isabelle up if favonovel.com continued to spout nonsense.
After a prolonged silence, White Owl asked solemnly. “Who is responsible?”
Isabelle’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, and a cold gleam flickered in favonovel.com eyes as favonovel.com revealed, “I will avenge your boss…”
“We will avenge our boss ourselves!” White Owl declared firmly.
But Isabelle interjected, “You can’t…”
White Owl fell silent once again, gritting his teeth. After a while, favonovel.com vented his frustration by slamming his clenched fist into the ground.
“Where is our boss’s body?” White Owl inquired, attempting to suppress his anguish.
Isabelle responded, “She was mutilated.”
White Owl looked up at Isabelle in disbelief.
“Nonsense! I refuse to believe it!” Unable to accept the news, Jack shook his head and gradually retreated, eventually turning and fleeing into the forest.
White Owl and the others fell into a contemplative silence, with only the crackling of the fire and the sound of Isabelle chewing breaking the stillness.
After finishing favonovel.com rabbit leg, Isabelle offered some comfort words, “It’s not worth getting too upset. In your profession, people perish every day.”
“You mentioned that our boss entrusted us to you. Do you have any evidence?” White Owl inquired.
