Manta left them some instructions, and everyone was astounded.
No one thought that a gentle and elegant person like Manta would kill his fellow guild member.
“Manta, isn’t this a little unethical? He’s a fellow guild member!”
“Our usual tasks are killing bandits or disobedient practitioners. It’s a little far-fetched to kill someone of our own.”
Some people were curious and expressed their opinions. No one had taken up this task so far, maybe still pondering over it.
In fact, everyone knew that in-fighting was commonplace. However, they were unwilling to take the blame for Manta. If it were a personal grudge, killing the other party was simply taking revenge. Doing it for Manta would be a stretch.
“Stop your pretentious act. Have you not killed anyone before? You were imprisoned here because you harmed your fellow guild members.”
Manta felt so angry at their righteous act that his whole body shook. These shameless people dared to point fingers at him, taking the moral high ground.
The man next to Manta smirked. “Hehe, we can complete this mission, of course. However, we need to charge extra for killing a fellow guild member. How about changing the one-day freedom to two days? I’ll take the mission right away!”
Manta felt exasperated. This was their true objective.
“No problem, two days it is. It’s your turn to take the mission, huh?” Manta looked at the person who spoke, a man named Byron.
Byron was one of the youngest people around. He was imprisoned in Jewel Hill because favonovel.com harmed his fellow guild members over a woman.
Manta was lucky that the mission fell on Byron’s shoulders.
“Hehe, that‘s right. I’m so happy that it’s my turn this time. I can get two days of freedom for killing a loser.”
In the past, they could only move around freely in the guild, but after some bargaining later, they could even wander around Imperial City. Others looked at Byron with envy. They looked forward to such an opportunity too.
However, they had to take turns in accepting missions. They could only watch helplessly if they did not have the luck.
“Say, why don’t you give us more tasks like this in the future? It’s too easy to get two days of freedom for killing a loser!”
“I can kill as many of such losers as long as I get the chance to go out and have fun. It‘s been a long time since I could relax.”
“That’s right, my Mary must be tired of waiting for me. I want to jump the queue and take on a mission!”
Everyone chattered enthusiastically. The captives were a mix of young and old people, but it was always the old people who would cause trouble every time they went to Imperial City.
