Chapter 131: Hostages
“I only came to know of this by accident; the clothes we wore had wolf fur mixed into them.” The fact that his clothes were made of a special material had escaped all of our eyes until the bandit guide pointed it out. Now that he mentioned it, everything finally clicked. No wonder the wolves didn’t attack them and even …
Chapter 130: The Wolf’s Fang’s Bastille
Even with the matter of the potions settled for now, we still had a lot to do. After that major defeat, the defenses of Dawson’s stronghold was sure to be at its weakest. With that in mind, George suggested that we form a punitive expedition and finish Dawson off once and for all seeing as this was the best opportunity …
Chapter 129: Cleaning Up
By the time Io, George and Eddison came back with the pursuit team, the clean up work was just about finished.

Chapter 126: The Difference between a Devil and a Devil
Ignoring the girls’ opposition, I reached for my silver mask and took it off, dropping it to the ground with a dramatic clang. With his goal accomplished, Dohby no longer had any interest in killing the hostages but instead turned his attention onto my obscured face. “Raise your head and take off that hood!” He yelled impatiently. Now that we …
Chapter 125: Interrogation of the Soul
Without wasting anymore words, George and Dawson began their battle in a corner. Dawson’s greatsword was at least two meters long, while in comparison, George’s blade was laughably small. Right from the start, this difference in weapon size put him at a severe disadvantage. With their roughly similar strength, Dawson was able to suppress him, while George couldn’t do a …
Chapter 124: A Broken Alliance
One shall not be judged for the iniquity of another; sounded pretty good, but reality was never that merciful. After all, while movies were just works of fiction, they had to have certain limits as well. The good guys always win and the evildoers always lose. Another example would be the ghost films in China: if those films actually had …
Chapter 123: Treachery
Standing at the front of the bandit horde were two towering men; who by the looks of it were probably the two bandit chiefs, Dawson and Dohby.
