Chapter 846: What Am I Doing?

Pov of a Thief:

I stayed away, my role was already over, and my men were around the shed to ward off onlookers and prevent anyone wanting to escape later.

I stand in a dark corner ready to hide my presence as best I can when it all starts.UppTodated from y brother has his usual guards, and combat slaves he spent most of his money buying.

Soon I get a signal from my men and wave to my brother that they are here.

In a short time, a group of 17 people and two large carts pulled by Golems in the form of Centaurs enter the front of the shed, one of the 17 people riding a Galloping Lizard approaches my brother.

Even from this distance, I can hear everything perfectly since I am responsible not only for the robberies but also for collecting information.

"Charles my friend, I hope you have the money because it's been a long journey and I have your merchandise." (Wendel)

"First let me see, if they are of poor quality I will lower the payment." (Brother)

"Men! Show our partner here your order." (Wendel)

I see fifty women and children getting down from the wagons, all are Beastmen from different tribes, and their clothes have been torn to show that they are not badly injured and are healthy.

"As you can see, the best quality, on top of that, there won't be anyone looking for these people, I made sure not to leave any loose ends." (Wendel)

"Are there any virgins? Anyone with combat training?" (Brother)

"5 of them are from the same Adventurer group, they are classified as Iron Grade, I lost 1 of my men because of them, there are also 8 with Grade +S strength." (Wendel)

"You are 1 day late on schedule." (Brother)

"We had to take a detour, some people have been persistent lately." (Wendel)

"Now that's enough bullshit, show me the money." (Wendel)

"Here." (Brother)

My brother tosses the briefcase to Wendel who is the leader of the Red Storm, he catches it with a big smile as he opens it and sees the pile of silver coins.

"(The time has come.)" (I)

"Always a pleasure doing business Cough" (Wendel)

I see a blur that I imagine is my Father reaching Wendel before the 2 disappear, my father must have used the combat isolation curse, with that only one of the two will come back alive.

Next day, morning:

I spent the night at the central base recovering from my wounds.

During the night I had another strange dream, this time I was walking lost in a dark place, there was a child's hand pulling me forward more and more, for some reason I couldn't say no.

I don't even know what exactly happened in the dream, it was all so confusing and strange, my mind only cleared when I woke up, but I was feeling weaker than yesterday.

"But what's going on?" (I)

"(My mind blanked twice yesterday, this has never happened before.)" (I)

"(Everything's fine, now it's all over.)"

"Yes, now everything..." (I)

In the room where I was being treated I realized that many people were missing, I look around where I see a mirror that reflects my image full of bandages, but what caught my attention was the necklace around my neck.

"That necklace..." (I)

I look at my reflection realizing it's the same necklace I stole two days ago, but I don't remember putting it on today, nor do I remember seeing it until I looked in a mirror.

"Since when?" (I)

I look down finally seeing the necklace and try to take it off but I can't, it seems stuck around my neck.

"(Is this necklace cursed!?)" (I)

"(I don't think I need to fake that voice anymore.)"

"(Communicating like this is much easier than talking.)" (Children's Voice)

The voice that was just like mine in my mind that I thought was my thoughts gradually becomes more childish and emotionless resembling a child.

This revelation made me realize that I started listening to the voice after picking up this necklace, but why didn't I realize this before?

"..." (I)

I wanted to say something but I couldn't, I tried to move but I couldn't either, it was like I had no control over my own body.

"(You can't speak, it would be bad if someone noticed, after all, we still have things to do, right master?)" (Children's voice)

"(It ends today.)" (Male Voice)
