Earth's Greatest Magus Chapter 1539 Greed

Later that day, when they finally regathered at the camp, the Blue Moon wolves were surprised to find that Ery and his Twilight Fang pack had caught a mber of the bandits, a magus level one at that.

Looking at the restrained captive under Morgana's care. Ashi of the Blue Moon had his mouth wide open for a few monts before he asked, "Evan, h-how? Where did you find him?!"

With a faint smile, Ery said, "We were lucky to find him traveling by himself. I'm guessing that he was on his way to their hideout!"

"Good! Evan, good job!" saying those words, Ashi walked up to the man and said, "Tell why you are here! And where is your leader hiding? Where is Tidur the Chain Breaker?!"

The restrained man scoffed before saying, "I will tell you where he is as long as you let go!"

The Blue Moon chief slightly narrowed his eyes when he heard that. "No, no. That's not how it works, pal. You will take there first, and then I will let you go!"

"No! No! I know this area is surrounded. Do you think I'm stupid?! If I lead you there, you will never let go!"

The man that Ery and the others had 'captured' was Frostmind. Naturally, all the restraint that was on his body was a necessary part of their plan to trick the Blue Moon pack.

As he watched the man's performance, Ery had to give him so credit for displaying such believable acts.

Seeing that the discussion was going nowhere, Ashi eventually gave up on trying to make it work. He took out the communication stone and looked at Ery as he said, "I'm going to report this."

The communication stone was the one used for the operation and connected to the other group; it could only be activated by the Corvin pack leader.

Upon hearing those words, the captive man imdiately beca agitated and said, "Don't!! Please don't!! I will tell you! I'm here to take the treasure we are hiding! Our treasure trove! Let go and I will share it with you!!"

The sudden ntion of the word 'treasure' seed to be working as Ashi imdiately held back from activating the communication stone. Reporting this matter to the superiors would likely an losing the wealth for themselves.

Seeing the man's hesitation, Ery quickly followed with the plan and said "Chief Ashi, I am the one who captured him, you will have to share it with !!'

Ery was surprised that the man was easily convinced, even without proof of the treasure's existence.his greed for the bandits' pile of treasure was enough to make the chief of Blue Moon set his mission aside.

He looked at Ery and said "I have seven in my group and you only four, whatever we find, we will split it 80:20"

Ery inwardly smiled when Ashi turned to Frostmind and told him he agreed to the deal. It seed that the Blue Moon chief fully committed to the idea, as the two packs quickly followed the now partially shackled Frostmind to where the 'treasure' was.

With the first part of the plan a success, Ery secretly sent a signal through the tiny familiar belonging to Annara that was attached to his shoulder.

"It's a go"

Minutes laters, dozens miles away, suddenly the communication stone hanging from Ashi's waist glowed. A mont later, soone's voice sounded in the air.

"We have spotted the rebel leader! He is running to the south!"

It was clearly a report from one of the groups, requesting for reinforcent. This quickly made Ashi stop in his tracks, hesitation obviously showing on his face.

Noticing this, Frostmind imdiately said, "What are you waiting for? We are so close,"

pαndα---noνɐ1,сoМ Of course, Ery quickly played his part by saying, "Chief Ashi, I am sure not everyone needs to go, soone still needs to cover this area, what if you let follow this treasure trove bullshit while you help the operation?"

Finally the Blue moon chief shows his real face saying "Trusting you with the treasure? No, I am not that stupid! We will go together"

"Chief Ashi there are other group near this area, I am afraid it doesn't justify all of us staying"

Those words quickly made Chief Ashi reach for the communication stone and told the others that he would volunteer guarding the area, convincing the other packs to freely make their way over to where the rebel leader was.

Staring at Frostmind, Ashi said, "Hurry now, show where it is!"

Following Frostmind's lead, the two groups headed towards one of the rock cliffs that was in the middle of the forest, and as soon as they drew closer, the Blue Moon chief's face changed when he sensed nurous energy signatures coming out one of the caves, dozens of them.

"This is not a treasure trove!, this is their hideout!" exclaid Ashi in disbelief.

However, before he could activate his communication stone, Ery had already sneaked up on him, cutting off the arm that was reaching for the stone. Blood splattered in the air as the Blue Moon mbers were shocked by the unexpected developnt.

"AARGHH!! What the fuck are you doing?!! Kill them all!!"

Ashi shouted loudly, ordering his Blue Moon pack to attack Ery. Unfortunately for him, the red-haired girl of Twilight Fang had already prepared her powerful spell [Hell Fla]. The surging wave of blazing fla rushed like a tsunami and effectively stopped the Blue Moon mbers' advance, burning two of their saint level mbers into charred corpses.

At the sa ti, Tatyana and Andrei attacked the other Blue Moon mbers who were still distracted by the destructive spell, dealing with the latter with ease and even overpowering them.

"You!! You have been hiding your power!!"

"It's too late to realize now!"

Realizing their precarious situation, Ashi quickly sounded the order to retreat, but not only reinforcent poured from the mouth of the cave, Ery had also released Frostmind's restraints.

In just a matter of minutes, the entire Blue Moon pack was incapacitated, leaving their chief standing last. His face was pale as he looked at Ery, realizing that he was the mastermind of all this.

'Why!? Evan, why are you doing this?!"

Ery calmly said, "Because you are a scum.. And worst of all, you are Corvin scum!"

"You will not get away with this!! They will know what you did to us!"

At that attempted threat, Ery smiled wickedly as he said "They will know? How exactly?"

Looking into the man's eyes, Ery continued, "It was your voice, your ssage that was heard by the others. For all they know, it's either you betrayed them or you fought the rebels bravely and died. As for and my pack, we were never here!"

"Damn you, Evan!!"

"You even cursed the wrong na"

Not willing to take any chances, Ery rcilessly killed the man, He then turned to Frostmind and said, "Quickly take the refugees away before they capture your leader."
