The smile on Keithâs face became more evident. "Of course, Master Joao."
"As agreed, the commission for the Blade Wind Corps will be deducted entirely from the merchantsâ taxes."
Joao nodded. "As long as you know."
"One last thing, Leader Keith."
"During the upcoming period, I donât want to see the whole town thrown into chaos because of your arrival."
"They are the Free People, the workforce, and Frank Manor still needs them."
The smile on Keithâs face remained unchanged.
"Of course, Master Joao. I guarantee there wonât be any chaos!"
Joao gave a contemplative hum and ceased further words.
He sped up the horse beneath him.
Accompanied by a dozen soldiers clad in chain armor from Frank Manor, he headed towards the townâs exit ahead.
Mounted on his horse, Keith watched Joaoâs figure disappear into the distance, shouting loudly, "Master Joao, have a safe journey."
As Keith watched him depart.
A similarly thin young man drove his horse over to Keithâs side.
The young man asked somewhat puzzled, "Bro, are you just going to listen to Joao Frank like that?"
"Arenât we the Blade Wind Corps!"
Hearing the voice beside him, Keith withdrew his gaze from afar and looked over.
Keith spoke bluntly, "Of course, Wyatt."
"In front of the employer, we naturally have to act sincerely, to show our heartfelt dedication."
The young man, referred to as Wyatt, couldnât help but purse his lips.
Then.
The next second.
Keithâs voice rang out again.
"Did you see that young girl just now?"
Wyatt nodded with some confusion, "I saw her, is there a problem?"
Keith grinned, "Go find her quickly."
"Then, bring her to that three-story building. Iâll be in the room waiting for her!"
"Usually, I go in and out among those thick-waisted prostitutes."
"Today, I can finally enjoy a change in taste!"
Wyatt asked in puzzlement, "Bro, didnât you just promise Joao to ensure the townâs order?"
Keith couldnât care less, "Yeah, I did promise."
"But how does me liking a young girl relate to the townâs order?"
Wyattâs eyebrows shot up instantly, "Hehe, bro, I also just saw a very young girl, and Iâd like to..."
Keith waved his hand dismissively, "If you like her, then go for her!"
"Right now, this town is under the control of our Blade Wind Corps, canât we do whatever we want?"
Wyatt promptly replied, "Okay, bro."
"Iâll go find that young girl now."
"Iâm going right now..."
Watching Wyatt drive his horse back with a team of Mercenary Corps members.
Keithâs face was full of smiles.
Townâs order?
What does it have to do with him when heâs a registered bandit corps with loads of money in the Mercenary Corps?
In front of a powerful employer, naturally, he should be humble.
Now that Joao Frank has left the town with people.
He can certainly follow his desires!
Keith prodded his horse.
Moving ahead, he ordered the Mercenary Corps captain walking beside him.
"Arrange personnel to split into three shifts to guard the entire Morgan Townâs front and back exits."
"Outside the town, arrange a cavalry patrol team to prevent the townâs residents from sneaking away at night."
A man following behind him immediately responded, "Yes, Leader, Iâll make the arrangements now."
Keithâs voice continued.
"Arrange personnel into groups of three and enter every house in the town."
"Confiscate all their money and belongings from before."
"The town is too dangerous now, keeping them at home isnât safe."
"We must be responsible for them, so letâs have the Blade Wind Corps safeguard them!"
A smile appeared on another middle-aged manâs face, and he quickly responded, "Yes, Leader."
After arranging all matters to control the entirety of Morgan Town.
Keith arrived at the door of a three-story stone building just in time.
He dismounted and stood before the double doors.
Without needing Keith to speak, two mercenaries strode forward, lifting their right feet to kick hard at the door.
Crack.
After a crisp sound, the door bar behind the door snapped, and the wooden door was forcibly kicked open.
Inside the hall.
Several guard figures rushed up immediately.
They questioned loudly, "Who are you? This is the home of Seron Ram, the merchant!"
Hearing the guardsâ shouts, two mercenaries who had just entered the reception hall looked towards the door.
Keith stepped inside, his gaze shifting to behind several household guards.
There.
A middle-aged man in light yellow brocade robes was protectively shielding a young woman behind him, his face full of fear.
Keithâs gaze swept over the young woman, past the middle-aged man.
Upon seeing the womanâs curvy figure, his eyebrows shot up instantly.
"Isnât she a hundred, a thousand times better than that group of middle-aged women?"
Speaking as he went.
Keith stepped directly toward the middle-aged man and the young woman.
The middle-aged man and young woman naturally heard his words.
The middle-aged manâs face was full of anger, shouting, "What are you doing?"
"Stop him, make them get out of here!"
The five household guards looked solemn.
The guard captain among them extended his right hand, trying to block Keith.
The next second.
After a metallic scraping sound, blood splashed.
