Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival [WN] - Chapter 154.1

Black Leopard Batir

(What the hell is this little prick?!??)

Batir wondered. Who was this human woman who was not afraid to turn her blade against him? 

It all started with a request from the head of the Kirli Trading Company.

The four forces that govern this town may be in check with each other, but they were not enemies. As long as they lived in this town, a certain amount of compromise was necessary, and each of them had their own specialties.

Furthermore, they could not afford to show any openings to those who were aiming to use this town as a military base, such as the Khalfaan Empire and the Evil Race Nation of Dice.

In the midst of this delicate power relationship, the head of the Kirli Trading Company, who deals with medicines, asked me to capture a young alchemist woman and her escort.

The Kirli Trading Company employed people who specialized in rough work, but they were only capable of dealing with ordinary people, and at that point it was clear that the strength of the escort was bizarre even to an amateur watchdog’s eyes.

Although it was rare to see a real monster of Rank 5, there were more than a dozen Rank 4 fighters in this town with a population of about 50,000.

However, even if the opponent was Rank 5, a single person should be no match for the Munza Group, which was both an individual and a group. Even so, considering the damage that could be done, the head of the Kirli Trading Company agreed to the offer of 100 large gold coins.

Perhaps the women were worth more than a hundred large gold coins. It had always been a common practice of the Kirli Trading Company to kidnap skilled traveling alchemists and drugged them.

A young woman, a rare Mercenian woman with good looks, could easily be worth several dozen large gold coins.

In that case… I should just take them.

If the women were worth more than expected, he thought, he could take one of them as a hostage to make the alchemist make medicine, and if she was good-looking, he could sell her to the elders of the Kirli Trading Company, even if Batir himself and the head of the medicine department were to end up in disagreement for a while.

Besides, from the impression he got from the head of the medicine department, he had a grudge against the women who humiliated him, so as long as he did not let them go, his impression would not deteriorate too much.

The Munza Group provided the underworld’s armed forces, while the Kirli Trading Company provided food and other necessities of life. There was no way that a mere dispute between a young head and a watchman could lead to an all-out war between the two organizations.

Batir’s people captured one of the children whom the woman had healed with medicine and held her hostage for the women to pick up, but the woman, who appeared to be their escort, killed their men, broke their limbs, and stormed into the town head-on.

He thought it was foolish of her to defy the Munza Group in this town – she was a bold woman.

Still, after all, she was a naive woman who could not abandon the hostage. Or so Batir thought, but when he ordered his rank 2 and rank 3 men to beat her up and bring the woman to him, they were killed within seconds.

He immediately understood that she was dangerous. The Munza Group had its share of rabid dogs who have lost the edge of their rationality, but this woman, he realized, was a “mad warrior” even more dangerous than that.

There was a certain beauty in the way she dashed undaunted into a crowd of two hundred beastmen, ruthlessly and cold-blooded, killing her enemies without the slightest hesitation.

He was even impressed that a human woman, who could be considered still a child, could be so strong.

Batir wondered.

He wondered if he could do the same thing.
