As soon as Logan spoke the name, all the guards at the entrance took an offensive stand and pointed their weapons at the duo of the wolfkin and the mage.
“You dare speak our lord’s name out in the open?!” said the Leshen as he too pointed his halberd at them.
BOOM!
But the next second, an immensely heavy and chaotic black aura was released in the surrounding area and all of the guards were pushed down on the ground.
Forget kneeling, they all were so weak compared to this domineering and majestic aura that none of them could even lift their heads.
“My my.. Is that how you greet your customers? Pointing your weapons at them for absolutely no proper reason? So unprofessional.” a grim and solemn voice landed on their ears.
“I don’t like when someone tries to threaten me.” spoke Loki with an emotionless voice.
“And ignorant fools who don’t know their place deserve only one type of punishment.” said Loki as his eyes filled with bloodlust.
The next second, he waved his scepter and conjured a dozen of lightning and fire spells.
“Sir Loki, no!!” shouted Logan.
“Haha ha haha ha! Die you insects!” exclaimed Loki and attacked all the guards who couldn’t even muster the strength to move an inch.
Boom! Crack! Bang!
“Aaaaaa!!!”
“Mercy!!!”
“Help!!!”
Terrified and wailing screams of the guards who were just doing their job filled the surrounding area as the echoes of their pleas resounded in this abandoned section of the small city they were in.
Despite the wolfkin’s request.. Loki killed all the guards right at the entrance of their headquarters.
“You.. What have you done? Why did you kill them?” asked Logan as his footsteps staggered.
“My hands were itching..” said Loki in a mischievous tone.
[What the fuck is this guy’s problem?! How am I going to explain this to boss Odin?! He will kill me for sure!] cursed Logan.
He noticed one thing.. That the mage in front of him was an absolute psychopath who liked torturing and killing people for fun and took pleasure from it.
“Now lead me to this Odin you speak of.” commanded Loki.
Logan had no choice but to comply so he entered inside the barriers and soon, a scenery completely contradictory to the dilapidated building they saw previously came to be.
A large 3 stories building and hundreds of guards who were coming out of the main door were revealed to the duo.
“Wait! I know Lord Odin. He will settle the matters. Just take us to him.” said Logan as he held both of his hands up.
“Logan, what the hell!! We just saw this human kill our soldiers at the left entrance. Even if you’re my cousin, how am I going to explain this to lord Odin?” asked a blue wolfkin archer.
“Just take us there! This sir behind me doesn’t like waiting.” He said and signaled the leader of this small squad, his cousin, that this man wasn’t to be messed with.
—————-
At the highest floor and the innermost section of this warehouse-like building that was full of hundreds of people carrying things such as caskets and carts where bodies were covered under sheets and isolation barriers to prevent the smell from leaking out.. Sat a giant and burly middle-aged blue thrall.
This figure leaked an aura of a peak grandmaster brawler warrior who sat on a throne-like chair at the end of a highly decorated room. His blonde and wavy shoulder length hair, the upper half of the body thay was covered in lightweight armor and his ripped abs and muscly shoulders were easy to see.
And besides the chair of Odin, were two 2 meter tall hounds, one white while the other black.
An attendee opened the door and let the duo of Logan & Loki enter inside the main office.
A gray aura was released from this thrall as he stared at Loki with eyes filled with absolute anger.
But instead of cowering or trying to reason, Loki revealed his own dark aura filled with dominance in front of the thrall.
Putting everyone except the two of them in a frozen state.
“Who are you, and why did you kill my people?” asked the thrall, unaffected by the sudden reveal of a peak grandmaster as if he already sensed it when Loki was at the entrance.
“Eh.. Because they were being disrespectful.” spoke Loki in a casual tone as if he hadn’t killed people but some mosquitoes.
This even left the blue thrall named Odin speechless. This was the first time he saw someone kill people for so little.
“This better be worth it. This is the first time someone has challenged my authority on my turf. So tell me why have you come here? And why shouldn’t I kill you?” asked the tall and muscular thrall.
“Why else do you think? To do business. And as for the last part..” spoke Loki and gave a sadistic grin.
“You don’t have what it takes.”
[What the hell is wrong with this human?! Why is he trying to pick a fight instead of smoothening things out?] thought Logan.
If things went wrong, it would be his head for bringing this freak here.
“Huh.. Is that so? Well, let’s talk about this deal you propose. If it isn’t worth it, you might as well not leave out of here alive.” spoke Odin, his gaze targeted at the black mage.
Loki walked and sat on the sofa next to the blue thrall, acting carefree.
“I am called Loki. And I am in need of your services since Logan here says you can provide me with what I want.” said Loki.
“How many do you want?” asked Odin without wasting time on beating around the bush.
“15 thousand a week. And I want 5 thousand of them above intermediate and master rank. You can at least provide me that much,right?”
Gasp!
Even Odin gasped in surprise and asked Loki with a curious voice..
“And how much will you pay?”
“Given my current budget, how about… 50 million?” replied Loki.
The next second, despite their previous qualms, Odin replied quickly as soon as he heard the amount.
“Deal!!”
