Help! I don't want to NTR the protagonist!

Chapter 17 17. Reina



The baleful aura generated from the slaughter still hadn't faded from their bodies and the bright glowing eyes didn't do the two of them any favours either.

In the darkness surrounded by fire and blood, it made them look more like demonic spectres than warriors of justice.

After the remaining bandits were slaughtered, it didn't take long before the surviving captives were calmed down and brought back to order.

A few of them were a little red eyed after killing a few bandits but they soon came back to their senses.

They were all just regular people at the end of the day, it was only the immense hatred for the bandits and fear in their hearts that had turned them into lunatics for a couple of seconds. After the hatred had been satisfied and the bandits killed, the raging survivors even found themselves at a loss for what to do next.

After a few minutes, the group of survivors were all lined up in front of Lucius.

As he looked at their haggard and tired appearances Lucius couldn't help but feel a little pity for their predicament.

They were all women and children abducted by the bandits.

The unfortunate ones would be used as playthings by the bandits and the even more unlucky ones would be sold and traded as slaves to all sorts of places.

Lucius scanned the crowd. On the outside, it wasn't too strange. It was as if he was just watching the crowd of people but an experienced eye would easily find something was wrong.

Lucius's eyes didn't linger long but the gaze was too inquisitive as if he was trying to find every detail in the person he was looking at.

It was as Lucius was looking around that he locked onto someone.

It was a woman with hair as dark as blood.

Although it was rather difficult to make out her hair colour clearly.

Her hair was in an absolute mess and scruffily put together

Her figure was hunched over and weak and there was even dirt spread all over her face to further mess up her appearance.

With just one look, you wouldn't be wrong to guess that this was a helpless woman that had been humiliated and tortured by bandits, but the second Lucius laid eyes on this woman, a wicked smirk appeared on his face

'Found You.'

As if to confirm Lucius's thoughts he heard a sound go off in his head

Like Lucius had said before, being a bandit was a crafty profession. If you drop your guard and underestimate them, you could be caught off guard and swiftly killed on the spot!

This wasn't just some helpers lady, no, the one pretending to be a victim was actually the leader of this group of vicious mountain bandits!

As befitting of a villain the second she heard the desperate fighting of her subordinates, her first thought wasn't to join in and save them but to go and hide!

When she was alerted by the fighting outside her first thought was to sit by and asses the situations

After living as a mountain bandit for many years she had long since learned how to cut her losses.

If she stupidly ran out to fight and ran into a full Knight squad of the empire her end would be too tragic!

So with that, she pretended to be a captured woman.

If the enemies were too much, she would sneak out directly but if not, she would sneak attack them when their guard was at its lowest.

Even though he knew about it from the book, Lucius was still left speechless when he saw this 3rd class fighter shamelessly pretending to be a victim.

Such a scheming and vicious individual was definitely not a good person.

Even the original protagonist with all his hax and heightened senses was still left greatly injured by this vicious woman's attack.

Fortunately, Lucius had the foresight of further knowledge or if he was sneak attacked with the weak body he wouldn't even be able to resist and just die on the spot!

This was all just a small afterthought.

Despite finding the person he was looking for Lucius didn't make it obvious as his eyes quickly skipped over her as if he hadn't noticed anything special.

He just secretly called Camilla to his side and whispered,

"See the hunched woman with the red hair, she's a strong 3rd class fighter. I want her taken down, alive."

Camilla was a little shocked when she first heard Lucius's words

'How did the Young leader know that there was a 3rd class fighter hiding amongst the captives? He was weaker than her so his senses shouldn't have reached this level yet?'

But even though she was filled with questions, Camilla still knew restraint.

Lucius was the Leader and she was the assistant. He would reel information as he sees fit. If Lucius doesn't tell her then it's none of her business

She quickly shook the unnecessary thoughts out of her head and silently pulled out a set of poisoned needles from a holster on her thigh.

Before the red haired woman could even notice, a storm of poisoned needles was sent flying towards her!

"Kyahh!"

The woman let off a cry as dozens of poisoned needles sunk into her body

'What the hell is going on?' thought the lady

'Since when was I discovered'

The woman quickly realised that something went wrong and she had been exposed.

She cursed herself for being so careless but there was nothing else she could do at the moments

At this very same time, Camilla had turned into a shadow and was hurtling towards her at blinding speeds.
