Chapter 44: Self Hypnotized!

I calmed my mind and raging heart after a while. I was trying to be cool-headed after hearing the possibility of their location.

'First is to check the abandoned mine situation before organizing a strategy to deal with all of the bandits without letting one escaped'

[Chali, is there an abandoned map layout provided by the information in that paper?]

[Master, There is no such thing... the information isn't that detailed, it's just mainly shown how the bandit operates as well as the information about the area whereas already pillaged by them. 

But it seems there's slight information about the abandoned mine entrance and its exit. but the problem is, we don't know if the bandit is stupid enough to not changed the layout of the map and didn't reorganize the abandoned mines to make alternatives escape...]

'It's quite tricky... the information suspected the bandit is the people from Baltimore Empire who disguise themselves as bandits. it's not possible for the Baltimore empire to send their army to disguise as bandits, from the way these peoples did things like slaughtering innocent people, I'm sure they would never let the army do it since it can make them get a criminal job, more importantly, by doing this thing they would tarnish their reputation...'

'But that's didn't mean they wouldn't do something behind the scene, and I almost certain they would send someone to observe this group of criminals, and that someone wouldn't be some foolish person. the probability that they changed the layout of the abandoned mine is pretty high...'

gruuuuu~

While I thinking deeply about how to deal with this situation flawlessly, suddenly, I heard Chali rumbling stomach beside me.

After turning my head toward her, I could see her face redden in embarrassment but somehow, she's trying to act calm and veiling it by making a serious face. 

'If you were hungry, you can just say it to me, you know? this Chali sometimes could really act cute~, anyway, we're already walked for a long time until the sky dark, as we seem forgot to fill our stomach along the way, it couldn't be helped if she became hungry. Come to think of it, I can feel my stomach quite empty now...'

'It'll be better to fill our stomach first to make sure we can be running the operation smoothly later!

I really craved some fried chickens! let's buy it! maybe we can try another fast-food chain, I'm quite tired with KF*C now... come to think of it, the Joliib*ee one is quite delicious!'

After considering things inside my head, I decided to order two buckets of fried chickens and two big size colas with my Online Shopping skill.

After getting my ordered food from Online Shopng, I gave one bucket and big cola to the embarrassed Chali

[Fill our stomach first, it will be dangerous if we lost concentration because of hunger in the middle of our operation and made a fatal mistake while at it after all...]

Chali nodded her head excitedly and started eating her fried chickens in delight!

'It seems she really loves fried chicken'

Purrrrrr~

'Oh Sable? what? Do you want some? it couldn't be helped~'

I ordered 3 buckets for sable to eat since he started drooling with a cute face after seeing Chali eating her fried chickens happily.

After doing these things, I grabbed myself fried chickens and took a bite of it as savor it slowly, the crispiness and the well balanced seasoned white meats arouse my appetite greatly as it satisfied my taste bud as well as satiated my hunger.

nom nom nom

sluurp~

I enjoyed my dinner slowly while thinking about some strategy along the time. For some reason, I felt like I was a psychopath who eating fried chicken while thinking about how to slaughter and eradicated some bandits at the same times.... 

'as expected, I slowly changed after coming to this world without me realizing it...'

nom nom nom~

I continued my dinner while looking at Sable devouring his meal in delight.....

'Sable.....

.

.

Wyverns!!!'

[Yes!! how could I forgot about them!!]

[Master?]

Chali looked at me with fried chicken in her hand, I could see some grease staining on her hand that still holding the fried chicken messily. 

'this woman... let's ignore that for now!'

[Chali I had an idea! we can use the wyverns to observe the abandoned mine condition from the sky! we don't have to worry about the escaping bandits since the wyverns will catch anyone who tries to escape!]

[Ah?! it's a great idea!! I forgot that master has an army of wyverns~]

[Should we wait for midnight before started to subjugate them?]

[Master... maybe it's the safest choice, but, I'm slightly worried about the remaining villagers that still in the bandit's hands... I think we should try to rescue them, the sooner the better~]

[No, This may sound cold-blooded, but I think my first priority is safety->

Before I finished my sentences, Chali suddenly interjected me by speaking out her opinion

[There's a high probability that they took some women and children to sell them as a slave->

[say no more! let's finish the meal and started taking action after that!]

gnuununununu....

I cut Chali's sentences hurriedly after hearing "Women".

'It's not that I want to grow my harem!! I concern about the innocent children!! yes!

..guh okay.. I will be honest with you guys, I reacted because of the prospect of MILF in there! you guys satisfied now?! but still the fact that I'm worried about the children is there too!!'

'Anyway, it's not like we charged recklessly either. Since we both have a stealth skill, the ambush will become easier for sure~'

[Huhuhu~ as expected of master~]

'What's with that smug face? are you Pek*or*a?!!'

I ignored Chali's smug face and finished eating my meal faster.

After that, I teleport myself back to my hidden base and hurriedly organize my 24 wyverns before teleporting them back to Chali's location.

Upon teleporting there, the 24 wyverns excitedly flapping their wings after seeing Sable. I silenced them before giving them my commands to observe the Rocky area from a high altitude. 

I told them to catch any people that suddenly appear in the area. I didn't ask them to kill, because I wasn't sure that all being that escape would be the bandit, what happened if somehow, the one who escaped was the hostage? 

In the end, I didn't want to take the risk and commanded the Wyverns to catch them to be safe.

After dealing with the Wyverns, I activated my Illusive Barrier to surround my body and asked Chali to activated her Absolute Stealth skill before heading toward the mine entrance direction

[Let's go!]

[Um!]

We moved stealthily while checking the surrounding area cautiously. After a while, we spotted the bandits that guarding the entrance. 

They wore a worn-out leather armor while drinking some boozes.

'It seems they were quite sloppy...'

I control my barrier to just shown my hand and give Chali a signal to finish them off together.

We approached the two bandits that guard the entrance sloppily and silently slit their throat stealthily as we cover their mouth to reduce the noise of their groan and scream.

For some reason, I couldn't stop my trembling hand while doing it. 

As this is my first murder in my life, the heavy feeling that I felt while slitting their throat made my hands sweat a lot! 

After thinking for a while, I tried to stabilize myself while remembering the children's corpses in the destroyed village, I tried to manipulate my brain and hypnotize myself by thinking of myself as the children's corpses father.

Without knowing, my hand stopped trembling and tears suddenly appeared from my eyes as I could feel it made my cheeks wet.

If you guys asking why I know about this method, I learned it when dating a woman who going to psychological school before. She told me how to manipulate our brain by keep thinking something suggestively and imagine ourselves as someone in some condition.

She said, if I doing it right, I could easily control my mood and emotion. She once told me that in some countries high school, they always did this method, that's hypnotized their student before the national exams by showing them a video and shoving them with suggestive and motivating speech to raise their motivation to study better, annually.

Even though she's cheating on me and date somebody else behind my back in the end, but now, I really grateful for her to teach me this method.

To begin with, I really didn't want to use this method as it reminded me about the bitter memories, but there was people's life at stake right now, so it couldn't be helped...

Suddenly, a wave of deep anger and painful feeling growing inside my heart. I kept imagining the children's corpses and this feeling became stronger and stronger! Before long, my sense of guilt disappeared completely as it's covered by deep sadness and anger.

Maybe it's because I ended up imagining the children's corpse as my children with Chali. 

'It seems I'm going too far'

As I have this though, At the same time, I could feel the temperature around me dropped instantly!

With the dropping surrounding temperature, my mind gradually dominated by strong killing intents towards these bandits!!

After a few moments, my consciousness slightly fading and all my sight dyed in redness. I could feel a strong bloodlust creeping my entire body and tried to dominate me. But, in the end, I hold myself strongly and barely leaving some reasoning in my mind after controlling my emotion better.

Upon calming my emotion better, I give Chali a signal before we both entering the bandit lair together cautiously.

As I started stealthily slaughter the bandit inside the abandoned mine with Chali, I didn't realize the dark sky outside became darker and rain started to pour down heavily with the deeper I entered the bandit lair.... 

The smell of blood became stronger as a small groaning reverberated from time to time inside the abandoned mine, made someone who heard it shiver and felt a chill ran throughout their body.....
