Lord of the Truth

Chapter 266 Threat

”Is that a threat?” Robin furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing this

”What do you say, Mr. Robin? How dare this humble thing to threaten the Third Heavenʼs Chosen? I am nothing but a servant to you and at your disposal... that is of course if you are on our side.” Orzonʼs smile disappeared here and then looked at Japan seriously, ”Your loyalty is still questionable, Mr. Robin...”

”Are you mad? I wasnʼt with you in the first place to accuse me of treason.” Robin said annoyed, Orzonʼs hints were very clear!

Orzon turned to look at Robin, smiling, ”That is true, the first time we knew your truth was today, but I hope you understand the current situation, if you are on our side we need proof after you took one of our prime enemies as your disciple, and if your loyalty is to the giants we naturally wonʼt allow The third heavenʼs chosen to be also on the side of the giants...

Please understand my situation here, You donʼt think I will let you two go without guarantees, right?”

Robin clenched his first tightly, that was really a problem... He couldnʼt simply kill Jabba and he couldnʼt stay here for years until he gained the trust of those people, especially if their strength isnʼt good enough to support his mission!

When Orzon saw this he sighed, ”At least tell me more about yourself, where you are from, what exactly do you want for your future, what strange energy system do you use...?”

”Sorry, Iʼm not ready to open up and chat with someone threatening to kill me!!” Robin replied sarcastically, telling him everything from the start? No way!

”...I know you are probably not from this world in the first place but you have fallen into this dilemma now and you have to find a way to solve it.” Orzon was silent for a few seconds and then said.

”Ahahaha” Jabba laughed out loud when he heard this and looked at Robin, teasing him, but said nothing.

”What are you laughing at, you idiot?! donʼt you see what you got us into? What a deputy chief of peacekeepers!” Robin yelled at Jabba

how could someone who specializes in security be so deceived?! Those peacekeepers are nothing but clowns!!

”Donʼt worry, they have no guarantee that they can bring me down even with all their men, if you fight with me and summon the demons we have outside, it will be another story!” Jabba spoke, looking at Robin, as if the situation around him did not concern him

”demons!?” Orzon narrowed his eyes and then said, ”You can try if you like, but the thought of killing the Third Heavenʼs Chosen is still painful to me, I peg you to think again and donʼt push me onto this.”

Robin entered into a long silence, the situation is not as easy as Jabba is trying to show, he is definitely trying to scare Orzon to soften his words towards them, but if the three of them really start a fight here, the results will be bad, to say the least.

Secondly, the big battle might attract a lot of attention and end up with the actual annihilation of the humans in the lands of the Lightning tribe because of him...

And this would happen only because the chief was trying to protect him from Jabba? No no, they canʼt be blamed either... Not after what happened to Laurie

ʼWhat should I do...ʼ Robin thought, Orzon also didnʼt say a word and remained silent to see the decision of the person sitting in front of him.

Then Robin widened his eyes as if he remembered something and looked at Orzon, ”I canʼt kill Jabba, he accepted me as his master so I have to protect him, also I will need him on my mission here.”

”Sigh~ what a loss.” Orzon let out a long sigh, looking ready to stand up and attack

”But I have a solution that will satisfy everyone!” Robin hurriedly added

”Oh..” The old man settled himself again with a puzzled look on his face, like a drowning man who found a straw to hang on, ”What could that be?”

”I want to pulverize these resources first.” Robin said and began to draw the shapes of a few plants on the ground. He had already become almost an expert in the language of this world, but naming some things he hadnʼt heard yet was a pain, as their name on his home planet might not be the same as here...

Then, after he finished, he said, ”I also want a metal tablet about this size... I know itʼs going to be hard for you to put together but we can wait until you--”

”Arkis, come here.”

A call from Old Orzon interrupted Robinʼs words, then a middle-aged man from the people standing around the tent entered and bowed a little, ” order me, chief.”

”Go collect Autumn Nihari Straw, Warm Ice Lotus, and---” The old man continued after a few names and then continued, ”And bring all of them here, quickly!”

Then he looked back at Robin, who was still stunned, ”All these things are scattered all around the settlement, in a couple of hours your orders will be here.”

Robinʼs astonishment increased when he heard this, at first he thought that *terrorist groups* must have these resources after all the illegal stuff they are doing and that Orzon would communicate with them to collect these resources... but the resources are *scattered all around the settlement*?!

These items the Burton family failed to collect and they needed the Bradley familyʼs help to buy them!!

Is it because of the energy density of the planet? If this level of resource is so common to this degree then what are the scarce resources here? How will it be? What kind of Runes could he use those resources to create?!

A smile began to appear on Robinʼs face and his eyes wandered, the crazy smile on his face scarred Orzon witless

When he looked at Jabba as if asking for answers, Jabba laughed and shrugged, ”Haha donʼt look at me, I havenʼt known for a long enough to  know what he is thinking.”

Robin remained in his state, and Jabba and Orzon were in complete silence for about an hour, then Arkis came back and passed the needed resources to Orzon, only then did Robin move and started burning some and grinding the others... He seemed to be making something.

His usage of the Major Heavenly Law of Fire was like magic that captivated the three bystanders

Arkis was surprised by what was happening inside the tent, but he bowed as they walked out again

But Orzon held his hand, ”You can wait here... help Mr. Robin if he wants anything.”

”Yes, chief.” The middle-aged man nodded and went to bring the plants to Robinʼs side and extend a helping hand as soon as he was asked.

After about another hour...

Robin raised the small metal tablet and spoke with a smile, ”Okay, time to test his confidence.. do you have a suspect in a major crime and you want him to die if he was the real criminal?”
