“Hey, who are you calling a patsy?” Ada immediately complained about being called out as patsy by Anna.
“Earlier, I couldn’t help but notice your grin when I said Southern watch was planning to recruit Untaintable Legend. Let me guess the reason behind your grin, you couldn’t be more obvious, Untaintable legend showed her willingness to join your mercenary group if you were to recruit Wyatt into your mercenary group. Am I right?” Anna deduced.
“How did you know?” Aba exclaimed. Her reaction only made Anna more sure about her speculation.
“…” Anna shook her head at Aba. Hasn’t she narrated how she was able to reach such a conclusion?
“Anna, what do you mean by Aba is the perfect patsy?” I brought Anna’s attention back to the topic.
“Demigod Windsor belongs to the neutral faction. Even in the neutral faction, he is in a unique position because of his unique ability. This special ability of his puts him in a position where everyone requires his services to a certain degree. Therefore he is on good terms with a lot of people and a lot of them owe him a big time.
This special ability is the reason why Demigod Windsor can afford a prodigal daughter like her. If it was any other regular demigod they would denounce such an ignorant brat as their daughter by now.
For example, take her mercenary group, which has 23 semi-demigods and 103 card emperors. Do you know how much it costs to feed and nurture all of them for half a year? Demigod Windsor has no background or ancestry wealth to depend on. He can make the ends meet by selling his services to various families.
Despite the thousands of resources wasted on the members of her mercenary group, their loyalty does not lie with Demigod Windsor or this shorty. They just enjoy the benefits with zero obligation.
And she can not see all this even though it is happening right in front of her eyes. By the time she sees the fault in her ways, Demigod Windsor would have lost more than half of his life savings. Nurturing a card emperor or Semi-demigod doesn’t come cheap.
This is what makes her a perfect patsy. Untaintable Legend or anyone else can see that Wolf Fang Mercenary is the place where you can get abundant resources to grow and a reputed demigods protection with zero obligation.
If it is some other organization they would have gotten the worth of the resources they spent on them. And never let them leave their organization without consequences to pay for.” Anna explained why she called Aba a perfect patsy. Wolf Fang mercenary group was like heaven for Vagabond mercenaries compared to the offers provided by other families and clans.
“I see if I were to be admitted to the Morning Star university as a member of the wolf fang mercenary group. Fewer people will dare to mess with me for my humble background because now I have latched on to a demigod’s thigh. And the best thing is in return for the help provided by wolf fang mercenary I have zero obligations towards them. I can leave whenever I want. But I won’t because I don’t want to miss out on the resources handed out by wolf fang mercenaries to its members. How convenient.” Hearing Anna’s explanation about the circumstances of the wolf fang mercenary group I was convinced that Untaintable Legend was looking out for me.
“You two shut up! I don’t mind if you try to insult me but I won’t tolerate it if you dare to undermine the members of my mercenary group who are more loyal than you think. Don’t you dare underestimate us.” Aba could no longer tolerate Anna and I undermining her mercenary group which she built from the ground up and argued that they were more than what meets the eye.
“Yeah, right.” Anna scoffed at Aba’s remark. But I felt a naive but powerful conviction backing her words. Therefore I decided to check Clown Mask’s memories and see if there is any mention of Aba.
Soon I found mention of Aba and her wolf fang mercenary in the clown mask’s memory but going through it I couldn’t help but cuss, “Holy shit!”
“Have you got mad? Why are you cussing out of nowhere?” Ada barked at me feeling I cussed at her.
The reason I cussed out aloud was because of what I witnessed in the alternative future stored in Clown Mask’s memories. Aba, the little petite schoolgirl in front of me would be the face of the new government after the three mischiefs destroy the old government to get their way.
Aba would single-handedly rebuild the government in her image to take on the Supreme leader who had claimed the central region as his domain. According to Clown Mask’s memories, Aba would face all three mischiefs head-on.
Whether Aba and her new government won or lost against the three mischiefs was not clear as that was the end of Clown Mask’s memories as she was killed by that time.
I couldn’t believe that the little girl in front of me who would burst out with anger whenever addressed as short or little would become the hope of humanity against the three mischiefs. Considering that it is far ahead in the future Aba must have gone through a lot to become a hero leading the masses against evil. Especially seeing how her Wolf Fang mercenary group was an epic fail and waste of money. Yes, in the alternative future the machinery members of Aba’s Wolf Fang Mercenary turned their backs on her when they were needed the most.
But seeing how Aba built and led the new government It can be seen that she must have learned a lot from her failure with the Wolf Fang Mercenary group. It seems that the ordeal with the wolf fang mercenary is going to be the trigger point for Aba to embark on her heroic future.
