Chapter 386: Benefactor
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As a level-16 Bandit, Reggie’s reaction was astonishingly fast. No sooner had the voice been heard than he brandished the dagger at his waist and sliced the thick fabric of the tent as though it was paper. The tent fell in a heap, and at the same time he retreated quickly, diving into the shadows of the mountains…
“Bloody hell, this guy is more than he seems indeed…” Reggie pressed himself into the mountain behind him and blended into the dark around him. Nobody would notice that there was someone hidden in the darkness if they did not take a closer look. This was a skill every Bandit had to know, and a high-ranking bandit like Reggie had long perfected this skill of his.
But even a high-ranking Bandit like Reggie could not help breaking into a cold sweat as he hid in the dark. Never in his dreams had he thought that someone could hide their abilities so well.
Reggie knew better than anyone else how powerful his companions were. They were the three most powerful Bandits in the whole Aminya City besides him! Even an opponent a few levels higher than them would not be able to hold their ground if the three of them struck at once, or else Reggie would not have let Marko lead them into the tent…
But Reggie knew he was wrong now…
The people in the tent were much more powerful than he had imagined. Marko and the rest had probably been subdued almost as soon as they had entered the tent. They had not even been able to let out a warning call. Reggie knew that the targets were way more than he could handle alone.
The good thing was, he managed to get out…
Lin Li did not interrupt Reggie at all, and merely listened from the side quietly.
According to Reggie, Granger was merely at level-8 when he’d arrived in Aminya, but for some reason, he got to know a benefactor from the Malfa Family, and his journey had been incredible smooth sailing from then on. That benefactor had led him into the Malfa Family, made him an official member, and arranged for him to learn from a high-ranking Warrior. Hence, Granger jumped from level-8 to level-14 in a few short years, being only a step away from becoming a true high-ranking Warrior.
“What benefactor?” Lin Li was suspicious. He had met Granger a few times, and even though the latter seemed quite smart, he was nowhere near talented, and his personality was even worse. Lin Li knew from the way he had led the Crimson Python to Black Clouds Town that he was a greedy man who supported those in power. Such a person could never achieve anything great in life, and any benefactor who had their eye on him was definitely not looking to groom a talent…
Hence, Lin Li was very curious as to what this benefactor’s motive was.
“I don’t know, either. I’ve merely heard this from others, but the benefactor seems to be a Legendary mage…”
