The Bored Immortal

Pobi and Pubo felt that their Boss was simply pretending to be a hostage just as a test to see if they were loyal to him or not and whether they would try to save him.

The fact that Brono might really be in trouble didn't really settle in their minds since even if the strongest weapon was handed over to a rabbitman, there was no way their boss could get overpowered. They just refused to believe that.

So they glanced at each other, creating an understanding with each other that this was their opportunity to show their boss how useful they could be to him.

By thinking that, they reached their hands towards a firebomb in the shape of a ball, they had saved up in case they ran out of arrows.

Brono was someone with a sharp eye and saw that the twins Pobi and Pubo were up to something, and Brono, knowing them, realized what they were going to do, making him shout hysterically, "You IDIOTS! DON'T!"

"You two!!" Verona was also taken aback by his shout and tried to grab their hands to stop them from throwing those bombs.

However, it was too late, and for better or worse, the twins were extremely fast and nimble, especially in throwing the firebomb right beside where Brono was standing.

The Sirens who were trapped in the water tanks eagerly watched on, hoping for this scumbag to die.

Viktor immediately reacted as he pushed Brono toward the bomb and grabbed Seraphina's wrist as he jumped to the side while holding her.

"AAAH!!! NO!"

*BOOM!*

A small explosion resounded in the region, right near the border of the odic circle, which was keeping the area within, hidden from anyone outside.

But because of the explosion, the odic circle broke apart, and now anybody could see what was going on as clear as day.

However, right now, Verona and the twins are concerned about their boss after seeing him being flung toward where they threw the bomb.

They had never felt so flabbergasted and confused since what they imagined in their mind was for Brono to quickly grab Azu and use him as a shield against the bomb but not the other way around.

Azu didn't even bother to use Brono as a shield but simply flung him to die like a useless pound of flesh.

"Ughh…cough…cough…you brainless motherfuckers…" A heavy pain-filled groan came from within the small ball of smoke where the firebomb had exploded.

"Brono!"

"Boss!"

Verona and the twins were ecstatic to see that their boss indeed survived, but when the air cleared up, they gulped when they saw a half-charred figure of Brono stumbling out.

His hair and skin were burned to a crisp here and there. If it were not for the fact that he used his precious life-saving treasure in the form of a ring on his finger, he would have surely been left in bits and pieces.

Still, even after using that, he still suffered some injuries, both externally and internally.

His eyes were bloodshot, feeling incensed, and one could even feel fumes coming off his head.

But other than being angry at Azu for throwing him to his death, he was angry at these two idiots in front of him who threw not one but two friggin firebombs at him. The bombs were not even ordinary but mixed with some powerful explosive powder those two had acquired during one of their exploits.

"B-Boss…h-how did this happen…" Pobi asked timidly, whereas Pubo didn't dare to meet Brono's eyes since he literally looked like some wild animal right now.

"Fuck off! I will deal with you two later. Now, give me the best healing potion we got!" Brono barked as he wiped the trick of blood flowing down his lips.

Verona snorted as she said, "What healing potion? Didn't we give it all away along with our goodies to those two cunning bunnies? We had never lost such a fortune. Wait till I get my hands on them. They can't run forever."

"We have to go after them now! If we don't get back our things, especially that flute, all our heads will roll!" Brono said as fear flashed across his eyes, making Verona's expression a bit unsightly.

"Tsk, tsk, no need to trouble yourself. We are not going anywhere," A smug voice sounded from the side as a tall, handsome man stepped in from within the darkness.

Who could it be other than Viktor?

Brono immediately put up his guard and took out a small knife from inside his boot. He didn't have any other weapons after giving it all away, but something was better than nothing, especially when dealing with this rabbitman who was not ordinary at all.

"Fool! You might have taken Brono hostage by surprising him using your silly tricks. But there is no way you can take all four of us on. You should have run away with your wife while you had the chance, even if that wouldn't really save you from us. But now I will make sure to disciple you as my slave while your wife will be…hehe…" Verona said as she picked up her staff from the ground and licked it.

The twins also picked up their bow and arrow with determined eyes, wanting to use this opportunity to get back into the good books of their boss. They were also angry at Azu for tricking them into almost killing their boss even though it was their fault.

Brono didn't know why but the bad feeling he was having just only seemed to increase the longer he looked at this mysterious rabbitman.

Viktor shook his head and said with a look of contempt, "How are you going to discipline me when you all are going to end up dead?"

Azu's words were calm, but they sent a chill down the backs of all four, making them really wonder if they were standing before a rabbitman or the herald of death.
