The Transmigrated Novelist

What could the poor guards say, and how could they answer!? They had been extremely tense and on edge tonight that they had immediately run after the sound of the window breaking, leaving their posts?

Or should they say that they hadn't thought that a dog would actually do something like this and attack the main door.

How were they supposed to know that even the dogs could actually activate the formation around the courtyard? But none of them dared to say even one of these words.

Why?

The answer was extremely simple, the first to actually speak any of those would end up in the target of anger and rage that their Master was going through at the moment.

As experienced guards, they could easily understand what was going to happen once one of them even breathed a word, so they could only remain totally silent.

This silence just managed to anger their Master even more though, as he couldn't believe that these bastards weren't saying anything.

"Have you all lost your tongues and mouths? Why the hell aren't you saying anything?

Speak!"

Finally a guard that couldn't bear it anymore, opened his mouth and said,

"Master someone broke the window with a tree branch, so we came to check upon the noise. In the meantime we didn't expect that dog to actually jump towards the house!"

"You damn good for nothings!"

Saying that, Boris was unable to control himself as he sent an attack towards the guards in front of him, by hurling a water slice magic spell towards them.

This was Boris's magic, he was a Rank 5 Water Mage, and one of the rare Rank 5 Masters of Badona City. It was this strength that actually gave him the courage to act again the Guild Master.

The poor guards could only try their best to protect their bodies and their heads against the attack. None of them was capable of fighting back, or to be more specific none of them dared to fight back.

Even though most of them survived, 6 guards died from that attack as their heads rolled on the ground, and their blood spilled from their necks.

It was quite the disturbing view, but Roy seemed to feel nothing as he watched from nearby. But his eyes weren't set on Boris, but his son.

Differently from his father, Mr. Knight was actually more composed and cooler as he was searching carefully through the area.

For a moment, Roy even felt that he had been seen through from that guy as their eyes seemed to cross, but he quickly threw that idea away as impossible.

Still, this didn't mean that he was going to continue staying around, not to mention that he had already dealt with what he wanted to do.

With his business finished here, he just carefully left the place without turning his head back. Really soon he was sure to hear another scream of anger from that place.

But it was still too early to return to his room though, so he thought that it would be better to visit another nice 'friend' of his in the Merchant Guilds quarters.

It was none other than 3rd Elder and his son. Even though he hadn't heard or seen much of these guys recently he was sure that they hadn't forgotten the grudge against him.

Even now these bastards were most probably trying to plot something that he didn't know about. The scariest enemy wasn't the one that attacked all the time like an idiot.

The scariest enemy was the one that didn't attack and stayed in the shadows, because you had no idea when they would actually attack.

Before, this father-son duo belonged to the first category, but now things had changed as for some reason they had entered the second category.

It would be better for himself to go and have a look at what were these guys thinking, otherwise they might obstruct his plans in the future.

With those thoughts in his mind, Roy quickly managed to go through an open window of their courtyard and enter inside.

For some reason his instincts were actually ringing to him, and he felt that there was something wrong that he didn't understand in this mess, but just what could it be?

After all, even entering Boris's courtyard he hadn't been discovered, could it be that this 3rd Elder had a way to find him out?

Something like this shouldn't be possible right? But even then he felt like he was overriding an important fact, one that he was unable to grasp.

With the thoughts of better taking 1000 thousand precautionary steps, than one false step he actually spread his 'sense area' to try and make sense of what was going on.

There were two things that he found out and made him curse at his stupidity and lack of attention.

First, the courtyard of the 3rd Elder was being surrounded from all the four sides from Boris's guards, and he was coming personally with Mr. Knight here tonight.

The second and the most important one was that he had compromised his camouflage and left prints of himself while coming here.

As a matter of fact, when he had actually entered the dog's house, he had unintentionally stepped on their food, which was bloodied bones and meat from Rank 1 beasts.

That unintentional action had actually made some of the blood stick to his feet, and then he had left signs of blood all the way.

It was his great luck that he had actually come to the 3rd Elders house, and not towards Alma's house otherwise his identity might have been revealed, or at least it would throw Alma under the bus.

Either way it was something that he didn't want to happen, so he couldn't help but praise himself, and thank Heaven for his great decision a while back.

Like this, he would be able to create a bit of conflict and distrust among the 3rd Elder and Boris. Their relationship shouldn't be that strong as it was, so with his help it was certainly going to crack.

Without losing time, he quickly used a water spell to clean himself and the traces he had picked up, and then made his way through the courtyard.

He had no idea for how long those guys outside were going to wait for, but since he was here he could try to fish for some information.

It didn't take him a long time to finally find traces of the targets he was seeking for, and the first one was none other than his first sparring partner in this place.

This guy seemed to have fully recovered and was enjoying himself with the beauties around him, which attracted Roy's attention.

But one close look at the sounds and moans of the women that were in bed with him, Roy could tell that the ladies were just faking it.

While he would love to actually try and put this guy a Green Hat right in front of his face, he didn't have the time for that. Furthermore, he wasn't the guy that he was searching for.

It took him another 5 minutes of searching around to finally hear sounds of the voice he was looking for, as it was none other than the 3rd Elder himself.

Differently from his son, the 3rd Elder didn't seem to be enjoying the pleasures of his carnal body and desires, as he was actually conversing with his wife.

"Husband is it true? Will Duke Eggins truly marry his 7th daughter to our son?"

"Yes, its true! As long as we help him take over the Sparrow Merchant Guild, he said that he will not only offer us nobility title, but even marry his 7th daughter to our son!"

"Accept! You should accept immediately husband! This is our son's good luck, how can a shitty merchant guild compare to our son's future!"

"I understand that as well, and I have the intention of tomorrow replying to his intentions and accept the deal.

It's just that our son is obsessed with Guild Master's daughter and killing that cripple!"

"Hmph~! That little sl*ut doesn't know what's good for herself! If she was smart enough she would have already selected my body!

Not only that, but she even went to take a bastard from the road and bring him as her man! She is looking for a good lesson!

Anyway, you don't have to worry about that, I will talk to our son and make him agree! It won't be late for him to take revenge once he becomes Duke Eggin's son-in-law!"

"Then I will entrust that issue to you! Just be careful to keep an eye on that bastard Boris and his people, they still think we are on their side!"

"Don't worry husband, I can't bear that bi*tchy wife of his putting airs in front of me, thinking that we are their servants, but I will do my best.

When everything is over I will make sure that she suffers everything with interests."

"As long as we win this gamble it doesn't matter what happens after!"

Roy couldn't have imagined that he would actually hear such juicy information. It looked like this 3rd Elder was trying to break free by himself.

Every man had a root of greed and ambition in himself, and this 3rd Elder was no different. But to think that he had found such a great backer.

What didn't make sense was why Duke Eggins would chose him, as after all he already had a pawn in the form of the Second Elder.

Something was wrong with this situation…
