Chapter 1738 Nether Visits I

"Please! Spare us we will never do it again!" The bandits stated as one could see that they had bruises on their faces.

"They say that, but they have yet to repent. Heal them up and beat them again." Peridot stated as she looked at the bandits.

"Is she the rumored dragon lady!?" One of the bandits exclaimed as there was an urban legend among the bandits.

"What is this rumored dragon lady? You can see that she is human." Adrian stated as he actually wanted to know of the juicy details.

"Spill it or else we will do what she told us to do." Levin Cloud stated.

"Its is just an urban legend going around as a past time to scare bandits. You see there was a story about a dragon lady that terrorizes bandit groups in each location. She would extort information from them through great methods of torture.

One of the stories even mentioned that she has the elements under her command. One story said that she ate the bandits that she did not like because they look ugly. One of the stories is also about her being the shadow leader of all the bandit groups that she attacked which is why they no longer harm innocent civilians." The bandits stated in order as Adrian and Levin Cloud suddenly burst out laughing.

The story was incredibly accurate to what Peridot has told them about her scuffles with bandit groups. The two boys could be seen almost down on the floor wheezing for air due to the stories. Peridot, on the other hand, could be seen getting red due to embarrassment and it became bigger when she also saw Frey trying to hold her laugh.

"It seems that a lot of you no longer wants to live today. Maybe, I shall feed you to that dragon lady along with these two dorks." Peridot stated as she glared at Adrian and Levin Cloud.

"Please! We did not even do anything bad. We just ask toll fees from passerby to ensure their protection. We did not kill anybody which is why we are not getting killed off by the army located in this region." One of the bandits stated.

"We thought that you two are from noble families trying to take the bodies of the two beautiful women. We were just scaring you and not really going to kill you. We would never attempt to kill anyone here unless we have a death wish." Another bandit chimed in.

"I guess they are telling the truth." Frey stated as she looked at the bandits with her eyes that can discern truth from deception.

"Also, they might look like bandits, but they actually have very clean souls. I was actually surprised when they said that they were bandits because they do not look like it." Adrian stated as he could see the state of the souls before they get judged. He managed to earn this by increasing the mastery of his evil eye with continuous use in the underworld.

"So, you are telling me that there have been young masters that have become frisky in the woods before?" Peridot asked.

"There are actually a lot of them that did this before. We caught them one time and surrendered them to their parents. We got rewarded from doing that which is why we are always patrolling these woods near our mountain hideout." Another bandit stated. nOVe.lB(In

"Makes sense if it is profitable. That would be a better option than taking hostages and they even earn merit." Adrian stated.

"Fine. You can let them go but they should lead us to the Imperial Family of Yamato." Peridot stated.

"Uhmm... did you say the Imperial Family of Yamato?" One of the bandits asked as they suddenly froze.

"Yes. That is the place we are headed when all of you suddenly came in barging at us." Peridot stated.

"Anything but that please!" The bandits stated as they suddenly tried to kneel.

"Why are you like that? I thought that you guys are accepted by the army which is why they are not exterminating you." Peridot stated.

"Just because they are turning a blind eye on us does not mean that we are not going to be punished. Also, the people of that house are incredibly fierce that even our boss had to be respectful to them." The bandit stated as there was suddenly movement in the distance.

"This is where you guys were. I thought that you were attacked by a wild animal. Unhand them or else you will be buried here in this mountain!" The bandit boss stated with utmost confident as he was also with the other bandits.

"Boss! Do not do anything! Be civil!" The bandits that were tied up stated but all the other bandits started to charge at Adrian and the others with their bodies in an attempt to subdue them,

The bandit boss and the other bandits were confident that they can take on four kids. They might have defeated a few of them via surprise attack which they are led to believe. They believed that they will be able to capture these young individuals even in they are a bit skilled, but things do not always go your way.

A few seconds later, all of the bandits were now hanging upside down with bruises in their faces. Adrian did not even have to work that hard as Sirius was hiding in his shadow. Sirius just tangled all of them up which made them unable to move while Levin Cloud commanded the trees to hang all of the bandits upside down.

"Why did you not warn us?" The bandit boss stated as he hanged upside down.

"We tried boss. We are really sorry." The bandit group that was captured first stated.

"Back to the discussion, can you lead us to the Imperial Family of Yamato household? If you agree then we will not harm you... any further. We will set all of you free. I promise that upon the gods that I serve or else I will get their punishment." Adrian stated as he made a vow to make sure that they mean business.

"If you are going to keep your word then set my men free first. I can lead you to the clearing where the land of Yamato is at." The bandit boss stated.

"Boss! No! We will do it." The bandits stated.

"Idiots. You guys will only get captured by soldiers since you cannot run fast. I can at least runaway since I am already used to it. Also, the matriarch of the Imperial House of Yamato already has a deal with me that we will not bother each other. It seems that these people are travelers that have business with them. Am I right?" The bandit boss stated.

"We do not have something important to discuss with someone from that household. You can release them now, Levin Cloud." Adrian stated.

"Aw! I was having fun making them swing." Levin Cloud stated as he was spinning the bandit next to him.

"Let them down and also heal them. Also, I will not hesitate to kill you if you lead us to a trap. I can make this whole mountain disappear if I want to." Adrian stated with a smile that made the bandit boss shiver down to his toes.

"I will promise to lead you. I promise on the lives of my men and I." The bandit boss stated as he was let down by Levin Cloud along with the other bandits.

"Lead the way then." Adrian stated as they followed the bandit boss.

The bandit boss stayed true to his word and Adrian to his. When they were sent to the clearing, the group could see the signage of the Land of Yamato. Adrian let him go and they bid their farewells, but the bandit boss did warn them about something in the Imperial House of Yamato.

"There is a special guardian in that house so I would not make trouble if I were you. All those that attacked that house were all killed by the people there which is why it is the most feared house in these lands. Thank you for keeping your word." The bandit boss stated.

"When we need you again, you must make sure that all of you will be available." Peridot stated.

"I hope that will not happen again in the future. I hope for the best for you, but we should not meet again." The bandit boss stated as he turned tail and ran.

"This place is indeed different. I can already feel a presence looking at us." Frey stated as the others also felt it.

"That must be the house god that Yumeko told me. They may be called a house god, but they are something like beast spirits that want to become divine beasts and they are bound to the place they are protecting. The one that is observing us must be the house god." Adrian stated.
