Chapter 38 - Lie Tactics

Tim froze when he heard the voice that sounded behind him. he definitely knew who was behind him.it was Idah that was behind him.

'Shit I wasted too much time. I am F**ed up right now.' Tim cursed out.

He was just preparing some deadly thorns that he could use to help him in battle. He figured that the only thing that could help him out in the battle was to use the poison from the acidic spit that he could produce.

Thanks to him using Death Embrace on the Boss monster that he killed previously.

At the moment, he had four thorns that were fully wrapped in deadly toxins, and there were probably 4 men behind him he assumed, so he did not cancel out the idea of a sneak attack.

"I was not the one that killed your men." Tim said, trying to lie his way out of things.

He felt that if he moved anyhow, he could be beheaded because he could feel the powerful killing intent that was pressing on him.

"They chased me and I ran, then we ran into a rogue group. The group apparently knew your other leader, so a battle begun.

I was lucky to slip away, since I was no longer their target. It was thanks to the event that I survived.

When I heard the last unusual explosion, I then came to check out what was going on, hence you meeting me here." Tim lied flawlessly. In fact, he was really proud of his ability to tell lies.

It was something that he picked up during his days on Earth. The long office hours always made him tell lies to escape work or to take a break from work.

He never knew that such a skill would come in hand in a world that he had no idea about.

Idah's angry look seemed to soften up, when he heard Tim's made-up tale. The fact about the matter was that the story made sort of sense to Idah.

They had enemies, he could not deny that they had enemies in their slavery business. Aa lot of competitors are always after their lives, but the presence of Idah and Taz together always deterred their competitors from attacking them.

So it was not a surprise to hear that Taz ran into a competitor and they had a fierce battle resulting in Taz taking his own life. The story Tim gave was believable to Idah.

"I swear that I will have my revenge on those sons of bitches. Was it the Fall Gang that attacked Taz? They seem to be the only one to be strong enough to make Taz use a suicidal attack.

Only if I was not separated." Idah said, looking at Tim to confirm his suspicions.

But Tim in his minding was shocked at the moment. He never expected that Idah would buy into his bullshit story.

If he just played along with the web of lies that he started to spin up, he might just survive, so he decided to spin up more lies about the situation.

"I do not know the name of the group or gang, but I know that they took out, the weaker team members without wasting anytime. I was really lucky that I did not seem to be a threat to them." Tim replied, not trying to complicate himself any further.

He did not know anything about any gang, but what he could continuously do was feed Idah with just the right amount of information for Idah to cook up his own fake idea of what had previously happened."

"Argh It was the Fall Ganggg!" Idah yelled in anger, as he struck a nearby Tree with his sword. ZING

Tim the not need to see what happened, to know what was happening because all he heard was a sword swing and the next thing he heard was a tree crashing down.

'Oh great, he is even more pissed now. I still have to get out of this situation and save and those slaves. I mean those captured people.' Tim thought.

He could not still move anyhow, because he figured that he was directly in the line of sight of the other leader. Also he was holding sharp thorns that he intended to use for a sneak attack.

Nothing would end this battle quicker than a sneak attack on the 4 remaining gang members.

"They were still Apprentices, and Taz was a Mid Level 1 Star Mage. They probably had a 2 Star Mage or a 2 Star Sage for Taz to use the scroll on himself.

He was really at a disadvantage. I swear that I will have my revenge on the Fall Gang. They will not see the end of this year." Idah said, as he was going through a multitude of emotions at the moment because of Taz's death.

'Such a cry baby. Now I can confirm well that the other leader I faced, his name was a Taz. I will remember that name. he was the first video game looking boss monster that I ever faced.

The boss monster was not as strong and terrifying as this particular Taz.

He could have done wonders with me being his master. 2 Star ? Apprentice? Are those the power levels of this world? I thought they used levels like me, or maybe the levels access are limited to only the champions.

That sounds more plausible. Now I have to find a clean way to handle this mess.' Tim thought, his thoughts always happened at a terrifying speed, so what ever seemed like a long time in Tim's head space, was just mere seconds in the real life.

"But you are also responsible for Taz's death. You are fully at fault for his death. If you did not separate us, things would not have escalated to the current stage that we are in right now.

You must be an ally to the Fall Gang, maybe you are their Slave and I am going to put an end to your miserable life!" Idah shouted, as his killing intent multiplied.

"Fuck."
