Afraid?

Auster was really afraid.

Alex had chopped off one of Sean’s arms, and also killed Bruno. It did make sense if he said that he was here to kill him now.

“Alex, there is no feud between you and me. We have even fought the devil together. Why would you want to kill me? Even if your capabilities have risen, what difference would you have with the devil if you were to do something like that?” Auster said solemnly. He took half a step back so that the others could shield him.

Mag looked at Auster’s darting gaze and smiled. He really did not intend to kill Auster today. He just happened to meet him.

For all these years, Auster was the only one who dared to go up against the Roth Empire. Other than the fact that he was rather dumb, he could be considered ambitious.

Back when Alex was the general commanding the northwestern allied forces, he was already archenemies with Auster. Ever since Alex started becoming famous, the orcs had never been able to gain any advantage at the northwestern border, and thus Auster hated Alex to the core.

This was also mainly why Auster chose to forego the old grudges, and join hands with Josh to set Alex up during the assassination on that rainy night.

The ambush today was obviously targeted at Connie, but instead of Connie, Alex came. Auster didn’t know if he should consider it lucky or not.

The tension rose, and everyone looked nervously at Mag.

Although they had six 10th-tier powerhouses and tens of 8th-tier and 9th-tier powerhouses, while Mag was alone, this was exactly why they felt even more pressured.

Just yesterday, Mag alone broke through the joint attack of six 10th-tier powerhouses, and chopped off Sean’s arm.

Strength in numbers was just a joke in the face of absolute capabilities.

“I’ll spare your life today to give you a chance to join the peace talks,” Mag told Auster coldly.

Auster swallowed. He swallowed the curses that he wanted to hurl at Alex. Although Alex’s words and tone made him feel like his life was spared, he still felt a hint of joy amidst the anger.

“This is still the territory of the orcs,” Auster said sternly.

“Anywhere with my longsword is my territory,” Mag said calmly.

“Retreat!” Auster turned to leave. He got on his flying steed, and fled with the other orcs quickly.

He had to admit that he lost in terms of faking.

Mag watched the group of orcs disappear on the horizon before he flew towards the Falk Tribe on Ah Zi.

It was not that he could not kill Auster. Auster without an arm was comparable to Bruno, and would not even survive a single swing of Mag’s sword.

As for the six orcs, although they were 10th-tier powerhouses, they could not even come close to Sean’s six 10th-tier powerhouses who underwent focused combat training. As long as he was fast enough, they would not be much of an obstacle to him.

Mag had other plans for Auster’s pig brain.

Although Auster and the Roth Empire were in favor of the war, both parties had an unresolvable conflict, which meant that if war were to resume, the two parties would have to fight against each other.

Based on the saying “the enemy of my enemy is my friend,” Auster had a greater value alive than dead.

As long as Auster was still alive, the orc tribes at the northwestern border of the Roth Empire would stand firm against the Roth Empire to prevent its expansion.

If Auster were to die, it would be difficult to have a leader like him appear from the orc tribes again to unite everyone within a short period. Connie would not do it, either, and it would be a terrible scenario for the orcs.

Mag circled above the Falk Tribe, and after making sure that he could not detect Rex, he mumbled to himself, “Could Connie be the one behind the reins again this time?”

Auster and his gang had left, so the crisis of the assassination was adverted. Mag went straight back to Chaos City.

“Boss, what a coincidence! We’ve just reached Chaos City, and arrived at the restaurant for our meal.” Connie darted out from the side excitedly just as Mag walked into the restaurant.

“Where did you come from?” Mag looked at Connie, and Rex behind her, with a puzzled expression.

He did not see them on his way back just now.

“Hehe, we came from the tribe, of course. On top of that, I was the one who steered the big white bird to Chaos City today. I landed very accurately. Aren’t I impressive?” Connie asked proudly.

“That is impressive.” Mag nodded. If she had had even the slightest bit of sense of direction, she would not have been lost at her own doorstep.

Thinking about it that way made Mag pity Auster and the gang. They really had it tough to have met such a weird person, turning their ambush into a chance encounter.

“If it were not for the bird that knew the way, we would have probably been enjoying the sea breeze on the Demon Islands right now,” Rex said calmly.

Connie blushed, and said guiltily, “Master, I was the one who pointed it in the right direction!”

“Come on in. I happened to be out just now, and I haven’t eaten.” Mag opened the door to let them in.

“Boss, what were you out to do? Why did you take the day off?” Connie asked curiously while following him in.

“I went out to get some ingredients. I’m thinking of what new product I should launch.” Mag thought that since she had already avoided the assassination perfectly, there was no need to tell her about it. He wondered if this was considered a form of superpower for an assassin. After closing the door, Mag looked at Connie and Rex, and asked, “What would you like to have?”

“We still have to go to the city lord’s castle for the meeting. Let’s have something simpler.” Connie smiled innocently, and said, “Why don’t we have 100 skewers of mutton kebab and 10 skewers of roasted pig’s eyes?”

“Is it a bad time to make… ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’?” Rex mumbled.

Mag glanced at Rex’s thick hair. Could it be that he wanted one more to ensure that his hair stayed thick?

However, speaking of which, this pair of master and disciple was a perfect match.

“No problem for the skewers, but the ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ really can’t be made now. Why don’t you guys stay for a few more days after the meeting, and come over again for it either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?” Mag said with a smile.

“Alright.” Rex nodded. “We’ll come tomorrow.”

Mag went upstairs to get changed before going to the kitchen to start cooking.

Come to think of it, ever since he left in the morning, he had not had the time to even eat lunch, and only had a cup of water in between.

“Boss, do you know that the peace talks will start tomorrow?” Connie asked as she stood by the kitchen door, swallowing her saliva while watching Mag grill the skewers.

“Mm-hmm. I’ve heard.” Mag nodded.

“I am an important person attending the meeting,” Connie said with a pat on her chest.

Mag glanced at her. This little orc-eared lady who had been just a timid lady already had the aura of a queen.

Of course, one would only feel that if Connie were to stay quiet.

Moreover, she had already participated in matters that could affect the situation on the continent. Such a change in her was something Mag did not expect.

He merely brought this orc-eared lady home on his way.

“In that case, you’ll have to do well.” Mag smiled and passed her a handful of mutton kebabs, which were just done.

“Mm-hmm. Of course.” Connie received the mutton kebabs, and bit into one of them. Immediately, she smiled with satisfaction..
