Chapter 45: The Little Lass That Matured Early

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

With victory in his hands, Yang Ling recalled the Evil Eyes and Horned Bee Beasts. He instructed Casey to tie up the soldiers rolling on the ground. They placed Jaynowese, who had been covered with stingers until he looked like a porcupine, onto a stretcher. They were going to find a priest to treat his injuries, temporarily letting him live. This man was the leader of the troops. Yang Ling might be able to learn valuable information after interrogating him for a few days.

Yang Ling had easily achieved victory. At the same time, looking at the completely defeated Wind Troops, the surrounding troops and adventurers witnessing this battle all gasped, unable to collect themselves.

Shocking, it was too shocking.

The abilities of the Wind Troops were well known throughout the Banto Empire. They were powerful, with several Great Swordsmen and Great Spellcasters within their ranks. Even though they knew that the Wind Troops underestimated Yang Ling and were poorly prepared, no one expected them to crumble so easily under Yang Ling’s army of Magical Beasts.

Even though Yang Ling had quickly recalled his Horned Bee Beasts and Evil Eyes, several sharp-eyed troops and adventurers had noticed that his Magical Beasts were a little different from before. They understood that they had gained powerful abilities after they evolved.

An army of Magical Beasts that could evolve?

The troops and adventurers who understood why Yang Ling had obtained such an easy victory swallowed hard. The abilities of the massive Magical Beast army were already terrifying enough; if they could evolve continuously, then their abilities would be beyond imagination! Wild Horned Bee Beasts and Evil Eyes could not evolve easily. Under normal circumstances, there might not even be one lucky enough to evolve out of ten thousand. That was also the reason why they were regarded as useless Magical Beasts.

But the Horned Bee Beasts and Evil Eyes Yang Ling summoned had done it. Thousands of them had evolved at once!

The sharp-eyed troops and adventurers were immensely shocked. They knew that in a small town like Wissen Town, no one was Yang Ling’s rival.

Seeing Casey tie up all of the soldiers from the Wind Troops, Yang Ling summoned his Unicorn and stared coldly at the spectating troops and adventurers. “Wissen Town welcomes honest merchants and upright troops, but we do not tolerate evildoers who would commit all manner of atrocities. I request that you take heed. Otherwise, the Wind Troops are your example!”

Take heed?

Seeing Yang Ling leave on his Unicorn, then looking at Goode and the rest who were promoting the fight, the spectating troops and adventurers had an epiphany. They understood why Yang Ling had made a big deal out of this.

“Brothers, let us do fewer misdeeds in the future. Even if you are not afraid of death, don’t drag your brothers down with you!” Looking at the many heavily armored barbarians, thinking back to the cold gaze Yang Ling gave before leaving, a troop whispered a word of caution to his happy-go-lucky partners.

“Oh Yiblis, we did not cause trouble at his weapons shop or his Evening Primrose Bar. He is not a leader either, so what right does he have to interfere with what we do?” One of the happy-go-lucky troops felt that the way they were treated was a little unjust. But thinking about Yang Ling’s power, he did not dare speak loudly, only silently muttering under his breath.

“Hmph, there are more and more people entering Wissen Town, and the security is getting worse. It is about time someone stepped up and cared!” Seeing the happy-go-lucky troops still feeling a little irritated, a middle-aged troop shook his head and continued, “Mike, listen to your brother, and don’t go fooling around for the time being!”

“Yes, even the powerful Wind Troops are not their match, much less a small group like us!”

...

After a moment’s silence, the spectating troops and adventurers broke into whispers, all warning their dishonest partners. Be it larger teams of troops or wanderers who preferred to work alone, all of them had witnessed how the Wind Troops ended up. They were afraid that they would become the targets of Yang Ling’s army of Magical Beasts if they committed too many misdeeds.

After the crowd scattered, the black-robed elder and Maryse walked out from behind a giant rock. Originally, they were going to scout the Terras Forest and search for traces of where the Holy Dragon sealed the treasures. But they had coincidentally wandered across the show.

“Hehe, not bad! Killing one to warn the others, even boosting his prestige and obtaining respect! Unfortunately...” Seeing the troops and adventurers leaving the area, the black-robed elder shook his head.

“Unfortunately he is not a member of the Dark Association; otherwise, he would be nurtured with all of our resources!” Having followed her teacher for many years, Maryse understood what he meant. She had a thought. “Teacher, why not let me see if he is willing to join the association?”

“That’s fine, but you must act carefully. You must not be too reckless!” Seeing Maryse’s eyes darting back and forth, the black-robed elder understood what she meant. But Yang Ling was calm and sharp. He did not look like a noble who would only think using the lower half of his body.

In front of her teacher, Maryse agreed on the surface. But in her heart, she was secretly thinking about how she could get close to Yang Ling. With her improving Dark Temptation, she believed that Yang Ling would willingly grovel before her dress if she used a few tricks.

Far away, after letting out a sneeze, Yang Ling rubbed his nose, wondering who was thinking about him. Patting the Unicorn’s head, Yang Ling got it to slow down. Quickly, Goode caught up to him.

“Sir, what are we going to do with the captive Wind Troops?”

“Oh, what do you think?” Sitting atop his white Unicorn, Yang Ling looked silently at the sweating Goode.

Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Goode slowly said, “In my opinion, we have already achieved our motive of instilling fear. For the next step, we can send someone to inform the family of the captives that they are available in exchange for a large ransom!”

“Hehe, not bad! We can extort them!” Yang Ling smiled. He thought of an idea that could kill two birds with one stone, “But before we receive the ransom, we cannot let them live on for free. We shall get them to build an inn!”

As for the leader of the Wind Troops, Jaynowese, Yang Ling would naturally not spare him, since the man could bring him trouble in the future. But as for the ordinary troops, their actions did not warrant death. Of course, they could avoid death, but they couldn’t avoid punishment. Yang Ling had to punish them somehow. Clearly, using them as free labor was not a bad idea.

Furthermore, it was not a good idea for the troops and adventurers to freely set up tents outdoors without restraint. Since he had this many free laborers, Yang Ling might as well build a large inn. Not only would it be good for housing the foreign troops and adventurers, it would also allow him to exercise a greater amount of control over them. As long as he managed the place well, he might even be able to earn a substantial amount. It was three birds with one stone.

Build an inn?

After being shocked for a moment, Goode clapped in support. Wissen Town did not have many things, but it had many tall ancient trees and stones. As long as they had enough manpower, they could quickly build a massive inn.

Without any more delays, in order to pick the most suitable location, Yang Ling and Goode made a few rounds in the town. They finally decided on a piece of barren land not far away from the castle, about five golf courses in size. Even though it was incomparable to the massive Wissen Castle, it was much better than a small, rowdy inn.

Since he was going to build an inn, Yang Ling was going to spare no effort. Wissen Town was rich in resources and had a good climate. There would definitely be more and more people coming to Wissen Town. He need not have to worry about profits if he managed the inn well. Merely looking at how many tents were set up in the northwestern sector was proof of the human traffic in the town. After a comfortable inn was set up, who would be foolish enough to camp in the outdoors and become food for the mosquitoes?

After dealing with some important details, it was already late at night when Yang Ling returned to the castle. Even the servants had all gone to bed, much less Argus, Casey, and the rest of the warriors who had been toiling for the entire day. But what surprised Yang Ling was that Alice was still silently waiting for him under the orange light of an oil lamp.

“Sir Yang, here are some fish and meat, which are tender and tasty. Here are some dried lamb shanks as well...” Yang Ling had just sat down when Alice brought out plates of delicacies, as if she was performing magic. They were all dishes Yang Ling liked to eat.

After gulping down his food, he saw Alice silently looking at him. Yang Ling sighed and asked casually, “Alice, why haven’t you gone to bed when it’s so late at night?”

“I... I slept during the day. I am not tired!” Alice would blush every time she lied. Even she noticed that she was not being natural. How could she fool Yang Ling?

This little lass!

After shaking his head, Yang Ling did not say anything more. He relaxed as Alice waited on him, trying all of the delicacies on the table.

After Yang Ling was done with his dinner, Alice followed Yang Ling into his room. She tidied his bed, then quickly brought in a basin of warm water.

“Alice, are you not tired?” Seeing Alice working up a sweat, Yang Ling once again shook his head.

Massaging Yang Ling’s shoulders, Alice said softly, “Brother Yang, I am not tired. Waiting on you is the most enjoyable thing for me in a day!”

Enjoying Alice’s superb massage, Yang Ling relaxed entirely. He instinctively said, “Any lad a little lass like you marries will be very blissful. When that time comes, I’ll give you a big dowry!”

Give her a big dowry?

Hearing Yang Ling say this, Alice did not know why, but her mood soured a little. After pausing for a moment, she said with determination, “No, Brother Yang, I’ll not marry even if you kill me. I wish to be able to wait on you all my life. I do not want anything else. I am happy even if I have simple fare every day!”

Wait on me all her life?

Turning back to look at Alice and her red eyes, then looking at the perky bumps on her chest, Yang Ling had a bitter smile. Even though this lass was a beautiful young girl, she was not even fourteen. If he was living in the city he was before, he might have...
