Chapter 262: Need to become stronger

She slowly opened her eyes as she smelled the smoke and felt the heat on her foot…. It was one of her sneakers. It was on fire!

“Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!” Rebecca screamed as she struggled and realized that she was tied up and hanging over a campfire!

She had no time to think as she used her other foot to take off the flaming sneaker and then kicked it away… This was a white dragon sneaker damn it! It cost her a fortune!

But damn, that was close! She always wanted to look hot, but not that hot!

Now where was she… she began to look around as she swung her burnt foot away from the flames which were three feet below her. Her shoelace must have caught fire by accident.

Was she captured by some cannibals? Was she about to be cooked and eaten?

She wondered as she surveyed the clearing around her and spotted the two girls who were sitting to the side chatting and giggling.

Weren't those two girls the ones who were with that twin, the ones who hurried to help Victor? Right, Victor? Where was that paycheck? His head was her way to riches!

She looked around using the rope that bound her to make a full rotation. There was no one else in sight!

“You Two!” she yelled… making the girl look at her coldly.

“So you woke up slut!” one of them said as they walked toward her.

“How dare you try and hurt the young master!” the other one spat.

“Ahh…. Why am I hanging?” she asked. She knew the answer though.

“The young master said that your flesh is very tender, it would be a waste to kill you.” the first one said.

“We will use you as a living food supply, we will only cut the parts we need to eat!” the other one replied while trying hard to contain her laughter… Victor had told them to frighten her a little and they were more than happy to follow their new young master’s command

Truth be told, the two girls were really miserable all their life. Both of them were orphans who were ‘lucky’ to get to be ‘chosen’ to be disciples for a 9th-grade sect called the Raging Flint Sect, which in fact was just a beggars sect that collected orphans to try an 80% death-chance awakening artifact on, then used them to 'work' for the sect!

So the two of them, like all their brothers and sisters, had two choices, either leave the sect and fend for themselves or go out and search for resources and then bring them to their sect master.

As poor girls without a background, they knew better than to try to survive alone, so they began to go on ‘Missions’ to ‘Acquire’ resources. That's how they ended up getting scammed into this dungeon where they lived a life worse than hell!

Thankfully they were pretty enough that those men didn’t eat them, but kept them as pets!

One day ago, they managed to escape from the base they were kept at, thanks to the twins, but due to their lack of supplies, they were captured pretty quickly by a more dangerous group!

They heard rumors that the stoic men didn’t leave any survivors!

They thought that this was their end, but two hours ago, they were blown away by the charming prince…. No, by the young master Victor von Weise who not only saved them but also killed no less than 50 evil players with ease!!

The girls should have been terrified by his bloody actions, but seemingly living on the edge for five months had changed their perceptions! The look of Victor cracking those men’s crotches with a mace was unforgettable. He looked dashing!

After that, young master Victor took them to this secured area where he gave them only two choices!

To become his maids and serve him forever or to become his maids and serve him for eternity!

They, as young girls who didn’t know any better, chose the first choice with some reservations as they feared their sect master. But after Victor explained that he was an heir of one of the five families, they were blown away once again, surrendering immediately before signing the contracts he presented them without thinking!

Their sleazy old sect master would wet his pants if he realized whom they would be working for!

Now, after Victor left to finish off the guy who hurt his maid, they finally felt that something was wrong!

THEY HAVE JUST SOLD THEMSELVES INTO SERVITUDE!

Why did they do that? They had no idea…. After confronting each other they realized that Victor must have used some kind of skill on them. But weren’t System Contracts only applicable if signed with free will?

They had no idea, but after some thinking, they realized that this was much better for them. They have seen Victor kill many players after all, and he could have chosen to silence them forever instead of subduing them!

Although they were just a little annoyed that he ticked them, serving Victor was not bad at all… After all, in their sect, they were no more than servants to the sect master and the elders. At least here they will have a salary…. A huge f*cking salary, and the opportunity to get the protection of a grand family like the Von Weise.

And to top it off, they would be able to serve that handsome young master…. Just thinking about his dashing smile made them ‘drool’!

“Ehhhhhh…” Rebbeca shivered as she saw the two girls who eyed her with dreamy eyes and smile with drool seeping from their mouths. Was this really her end?

…

“Catch those b*tches!” the burly man said as he walked in a strange way… One of his legs was missing, so he was using a makeshift crutch to move around!

That red-haired b*tch was the one who blew up his leg.

Thankfully, one of his men saw her sneaking around and reported to him, so despite having some difficulty walking, he took 20 players with him and was to the moment pursuing the escaping girls throughout the garden. This place had many dangers and dead ends, but getting stuck and having to live here for the last two years, those men knew this place like the backs of their hands.

“Boss, we cornered them, those b*tches ran to a dead end. It’s the plantation!!” One man whom he sent ahead as a scout returned, “If we closed that stone gate they would have no place to go!”

“Oh…” The boss then started heading toward the plantation as he considered his options… He was a very cautious man by nature.

What if this was a trap? Impossible, the girls didn’t have their rings or any weapons. He saw their frightened faces and those can’t be facked!

“B…Boss… what if this place had skeletons?” A young man that had recently joined them interrupted the boss’s thoughts just as they reached the location, earning himself a slap on the back of his head.

“Don’t worry, the skeleton hates this place … It’s very muddy! It had evil plants before, but five months ago, all of the groups worked together to burn it down… ” the boss said as he surveyed the location. ”Do you know those two girls? They should have come in with you!” the boss asked the young man.

“They are in the other class in the academy… I heard that they are some kind of maids…” the young man was not sure. He only got to survive here because the boss was his distant cousin's son-in-law’s second uncle's son-in-law.

“Useless things!” the boss cursed as he moved forward toward the door then began to sniff the area for any abnormalities. There was none! Only the smell of two frightened girls.

He looked at an old veteran who was one of his assistants. “Keep the noob with here you, the two of you will stay outside and guard the gate, the rest will follow me… I haven’t eaten Twins in a long time…” He said with a murderous look. This time he will not let them escape.

“Boss, but we want to eat too… “ the young man who was ordered to stay outside complained.

“Shut up, I will save you a thigh or an arm!... You have to earn your food here! We will go round up the other runaway sluts later!” The boss said, winking to the veteran, then licking his lips before entering the plantation.

The boss nodded and then walked inside the plantation.

Perhaps this place was once some princess’s private garden, but it was now his hunting ground.

Although he was very annoyed because the girls ran. The feeling of being a hunter made him feel alive, it made him feel young again… Maybe some action every once in a while was not bad! Perhaps he would try playing with him a little before eating them!

The two who were ordered to stay outside used all of their strength to close the Stonegate and then stood guards outside it. They could hear the jeers of the others from the inside and that made them very disturbed.

“Stay vigilant!” the Veteran said as he secretly checked the young man's figure. Not bad! The boss was right not to kill him with the others.

“I will!” the young man replied, totally unaware of his companion’s thoughts, “Why didn’t the boss leave more men to guard outside?” he asked.

“The place inside is like a maze, he wants to finish this quickly!” the veteran replied. Not revealing that the boss who feared for his life wanted all of his men with him in case an ambush awaited them there.

“Oh…” the young man said, then sighed. That’s when he spotted something. A very pretty girl was walking toward them with an injured shoulder and stomach… She was bleeding heavily as she screamed for help then fell to the ground behind a big tree.

The two men looked at each other.

“Be careful! I will go check!” the veteran warned, “Watch my back!”

“I understand!” the young man replied as he started to survey the surroundings with a bow and arrow ready to be launched. The middle-aged veteran carefully headed to the girl and then stood there stunned. Can such a pretty girl exist?

“Old man!.... What’s wrong?” the young man asked, waking the veteran from his trance.

“Ahhh…. It’s a girl. She is badly injured….” the veteran replied as he swallowed… he really wanted this girl, he never wanted anything more in his life!

He banged dozens of men in his lifetime. This was his first time feeling like this over a girl!

Too bad he didn’t have any life left to explore this new ‘feeling’ as he failed to realize that there was a dagger piercing through his throat.

…

The young man, who was pouting, made sure that there were no other enemies around then turned back to look at his partner who had already pounced on that girl behind a tree.

“That bastard acted all high and mighty, but in the end, he couldn’t even hold himself!“ he cursed as he ran toward his partner. He wanted some of her too!

He carefully approached while being extra vigilant. His friend was busy raping that poor girl who was struggling hard… Soon he was close enough to see her face.

“Damn, this girl is pretty!“

That was also his last thought as he failed to notice the thin thread that was stretched across the three trees beside him. It was being slowly tightened around his neck.

He watched as the girl stopped struggling then pushed the old man’s corpse away before rolling to the side, pulling the threads, and decapitating the poor guy who could still not understand how such a pretty girl existed.

After hearing the headless corpse hit the ground, Lily slowly stood up, dusted her clothes, and then put her veil back on… Damn vermin! How dare they look at her like that? Only her young master could do that!

She slowly approached them and then used her mace that was meant to crush the skeleton to crush the two corpse’s balls into oblivion.

She sighed.

Why was she so weak? If she was stronger she could have helped the young master more.

Rather than using traps, she would have been able to watch those scream in pain before she killed them … Damn it! She should train harder!

Thankfully those idiots only left two men outside. She was prepared to deal with four at the same time. But her preparations were unnecessary.

Hopefully, the young master and the twins would not take long inside. Her role at the moment was just to secure the gate from the outside and wait!

“Monster! HELP!” a man came flying over the plantation walls moments later startling Lily, who just watched him hit the invisible barrier and then bounce back in.

The young master was right!

When she asked him why he had to use all of those expensive barrier talismans when setting this trap up, he told her that she must always be 200% prepared when facing players! One can never know what kind of skills his enemies had.
