Chapter 1625: Another contract
The very next day.
Muscle who was trying his best to rest his mind, didn't get a chance to do so, because the three remaining subordinates of the top six, graced him with their presence.
He was shocked and scared at the time. He was already scared since he knew if anyone connects the dots to him, his life would be turned upside down in just one day. But to think the three people who have power to do so will show up the next day the thought came to his mind, is something he cannot even wrap his head around.
He mustered all of his courage and went to greet them.
"Hello, why are you all here? That too all of you came at the same time?"
"You must have already heard about the situation. We were attacked and someone from an organization called DUSK did that.
From what young masters told us, it is the organization of a foe they made recently."
"I have heard about it."
"Well, the problem is, Dusk is probably the one that attacked the Saint and the Smith as well. Now all three of us are attacked. On the other hand, you were spared. Even though they visited you first.
This raised the suspicions of young master and of course we completely believe that they are not suspicions but rather the truth.
Why would a person who attacked five out of six people of the top six and leave you alone? That too, when he visited you earlier than us. That doesn't make any sense, does it?"
"Are you accusing me of colluding with him?"
"We are not accusing you; we are actually saying that you are colluding otherwise you will have an explanation for why he didn't attack you."
"Don't mind me for being stupid, but can you fucking explain, how am I supposed to know the thoughts of the person who didn't attack me?
Do you think I am a fucking mind reader or a seer? I don't know why he didn't attack me. Maybe its because I appeared less of a pussy than you three, that is why he attacked all three of you at the same time."
Muscle said calmly. His voice is not showing any anxiety that he is being consumed with and it is definitely not showing any anger. It is almost like he is done with all of these accusations.
"What the fuck did you just say to me now?"
One of the three flared up.
"Okay, I am going to tell you straight. The person who attacked your organization is named Sam.
He visited me, yes. He disguised himself as someone who wanted to gain some fame in arena and joined along with his friends. He kicked some serious ass, but that is all he did.
I invited him to join my team without knowing who he was, but rejected the offer. I only knew it was him after the young masters told me.
I told the story to young masters already and I just told you the same thing again. I don't give a shit if you guys believe me or not. But just know that I don't give a shit and also be careful when you accuse me of this next time. Because I might not be able to control myself.
I will beat the crap out of all three of you, even if I have to lose an arm and a leg."
With that he stormed off the room.
All three of them were dumbfounded and exchanged glances.
"Why is his reaction like this?"
One of the three asked in a confused tone. They expected a completely different reaction to be honest. Even if Muscle is completely innocent, they didn't expect him to be this strong and confident. After all, even a suspicion of young master is a dangerous thing for them.
But Muscle is so confident and calm that they didn't know how to react.
They would have believed it more if he was yelling and cursing, or shivering in fright. That would have been a very expected reaction. Now they don't even know how to react to this.
After some discussion though, they decided to stay back and investigate anyway. Even if they are doubting that Muscle might be really have any connections with Sam because of how confident he is, the young masters told them to investigate, so they might as well do it.
So, they decided to make themselves at home to the annoyance of Muscle.
"I don't think your bluff worked to the extent you wanted it to. I mean, it is a good bluff, but did you really think that would have kept them in check?" Sam asked Muscle who is currently chugging down wine."
"Of course, I know it wouldn't work. All I wanted to do is plant a seed of doubt in their minds. Now even they are doubting their earlier claims. In a way my bluff worked. Of course it would have been a lot better if they really fucked off.
But I don't think I can expect too much now, can I?"
"Yeah, that is understandable. So, what do you want to us to do? The way things are going, we are bound to be caught if we stay in the same place."
"Of course you are not staying here. I am going to smuggle you out of this place."
"Smuggle us out? No that is not happening. Once we are out of your estate we are no longer your guests, then you will get to kill us. We are not letting you do that?"
Philip hurriedly interjected.
"Whatever he said." Watt also chimed in.
"You guys are fucking kidding me right? Anyway, why are you guys butting in? Aren't you just some extras in this shit? Let him make the decision damn it.
I can't have you in my house no matter what. If you get caught, I am going to fucking die. Do you not understand that?"
Sam shrugged and said.
"I mean, they do have a valid point. There is a chance that you might kill us right after taking us out of your estate. We would prefer to stay here."
"How about this? I will write up another oath that I will not attack you no matter what after I leave you out of the estate. Just escape from here. Within the next few months, I will not touch a single strand of your hair if you don't come in contact with me.
How does that sound?"
"That doesn't sound like a bad deal? What do you guys say?" Sam asked his friends.
"If you are okay with it, then we are okay with it. But you better draft the contract properly. Otherwise he might find some loopholes."
"Like what? Like telling your location to the other three. After all, even though he said he wouldn't attack us, doesn't mean he cannot tell the details to someone who can attack us."
"That is a fair point, isn't it Muscle." Sam asked as if he is genuinely conflicted.
"You brats, can you just draft a contract and be done with it? I am fucking done with you guys."
"Come on, don't be like that. Treat us like your friends and be a bit more tolerant. We did bond over destroying a common enemy. We could be considered comrades in arms at least."
"No, we are not. We are definitely not. Asking your help and taking down Saint with that, is the biggest fucking mistake I have ever done.
If I just let Saint be and let him die a bit later all by himself, I would have had a much better life in the past few days.
I wouldn't have caught the attention of the young master. I wouldn't have been stuck with these fuckers coming to my home and keeping an eye on me.
I would have had some peace."
"Alright, alright. Don't be so hard on yourself. I will draft a contract and you can sign it."
"Do it quick. At the rate they are investigating, they will be here in a hour to search this place. I want you to leave within that hour."
"Alright. I am drafting it as fast as I can, can you not be so eager to throw us out?" Sam said as he started writing the contract.
When he was finally done, there were only thirty minutes of estimated time left.
"What do you think? I was very thorough with it."
Muscle basically skimmed through the contract and he was shocked.
"Why is it written in such a way? Why does it say that we are friends and shit?"
"Come on, I consider you a friend since you helped me leave a chink of the three young masters. Is it really that much of a bad thing?"
"Whatever. I will just fucking sign. Let me get that Gandharva."
"That would be great. Thank you."
Within a few moments, Muscle is back with Gandharva and they signed the contract with an oath.
