Chapter 164: Dealing With Some Mobs
-----
After having a nice meal we moved outside of the house only to find that there was a group of four shady-looking ugly ice giant guys wearing leather clothes and whose faces were covered in scars. All of them were Rank 1 Initial Stage.
"Oi! You lot are finally back. You've been missing for over two weeks! You owe us almost a month of tax for occupying our master's territory! If it wasn't for us your miserable hut would have gotten robbed long ago!" said the smallest of the group, he had a seemingly rat-like face, with a big tooth sprouting out of his front jaw. His eyes seemed to be filled with greed.
He looked at me and then at Benladann, he clearly didn't recognize us.
"Huh? Who are those?" he asked.
"Boss, that girl's hot!" said one the biggest and also the fattest ice giant of the group, who was bald.
"Boss, can we keep her? Shouldn't be hard to just grab her," said another idiot.
"Well, maybe… But oi! Are you listening? Where's the money? Bring anything you got to pay! Oh! Maybe you're finally willing to sell your daughters, old Gaston?" chuckled the little rat-faced ice giant.
I stared blankly at the idiots as I spoke to Gaston.
"Who are these clowns?"
"Ah… These guys came to this area of the town around a year ago when a criminal organization started to expand around here. They ask us for taxes for living in their territory, as they give us "protection"… But we were already here before them, so it is not really their territory…" sighed Gaston.
"I see. Well, you lot don't live here anymore so it doesn't matter if they keep the house, right?" I asked.
"Yeah, we already took out all our belongings," said Gaston, as they were carrying a large sack with a lot of their stuff.
The four ice giants slowly walked towards us as Gaston spoke to the rat-faced guy.
"Sorry Geto, but we are leaving today, we are moving out of the city," said Gaston.
"Hah?! Well, do whatever the fuck you want but you gotta pay for all these days you were not here! So, where's the money? You want me to sell your wife as a whore?" asked the son of a bitch.
"What?! Stop saying such disgusting stuff! We are leaving, you can keep the house, that should be paid for itself, right?" asked Gaston rather angrily.
"What did ya say?! That shitty pile of wood doesn't amount to any value!" said Geto.
"Yeah if you ain't paying you're being a criminal…"
"And criminals become criminal slaves!"
"Yeah, so we are allowed to enslave you and sell you out."
What kind of fucked up logic is that?
"But we don't have money! Let us go!" said Gaston.
"No way we are. And even less with all the cuties, you got," said Geto.
He and his entire group quickly unsheathed their weapons, mostly daggers as big as swords. I guess they were daggers for ice giants.
"Leave these clowns to me," I sighed.
"My lord…"
I walked in front of the four clowns as I glanced at their eyes, my long silvery-white hair began to flutter by the cold wind coming from the left.
"Leave now," I said.
"And who's this idiot?"
"Is he a friend of Geto?"
"Do you think you can fight us or something, shithead?"
"It's common sense, four against one, you're out of commission! Let's gang on him!"
Geto rushed towards me while leading the other three taller thugs, all three of them raised their daggers, while one of them conjured a small icicle spear.
"With you lot, I only require waving my hands," I said.
And so I did, a swipe of my hand was enough to produce strong enough winds to push all four of them into the ground.
CLAAASH!
"UAAAGGH…!"
He thugs cried in pain as they hit the floor.
"On your knees, maggots," I said, as I continued to push the winds over their bodies, they were so weak they were left paralyzed.
I could easily fire a Photon Bullet into their heads and kill them instantly now…
"W-Who are you?!"
"Is this wind magic?!"
"Y-You don't know who you are starting a fight against!"
"Our boss is gonna fuck you up!"
"Stop barking, mongrels, do you have a death wish?" I asked as all four of them felt my fear-inducing aura, making them piss themselves.
"Gyyyeegh…!"
In the end, all four of them were so terrified by this Skill's power they fell unconscious out of fear.
Well… that was something.
"T-They fell unconscious?!" asked Gaston in surprise.
"To suppress these ants I don't even need to move an inch," I sighed.
"A-Amazing… This is the power of our Lord!" said Dregeann.
I decided to call Benladann.
"Benladann, come here," I said.
"Eh? Ah! Okay…"
She was still in a daze, everything happened way too fast.
"These four idiots are perfect for your new spell. Why don't you try them out?" I asked.
Indeed, Benladann got a new spell through the last week of training her magic. After a lot of stuff, she suddenly got braver with the mold, she started to fear it less and even allowed it to crawl over her hands a bit. With that, she managed to learn a new spell where she makes a telepathic connection with a mass of mold and inserts it inside a living being, effectively parasitizing someone.
She tried this out with monsters, and it even worked in weak wolves, although stronger than that and it proved to be harder. What she can do is pretty simple, she can mind controlling the host she parasitizes with mold, so it is perfect to make spies.
"I see… Alright!"
Benladann quickly generated four masses of slimy black ooze and sent them crawling into the ears of the unconscious Ice Giants, the mold quickly reached their brain and began to parasitize it, expanding its roots through it all…
Just a few seconds after that, Benladann's eyes flashed with crimson-red colors, as her left eye turned red. This was the effect of using this spell. It seems that she somehow takes into the characteristics of… Miranda.
