The villain's side of the novel-Novel

Twenty days away from Iskar City, in the middle of one of the forests near the city, there was a great castle surrounded by high walls. In this majestic castle was one of the strongest mercenary organizations on the continent, the Northern Light Mercenaries, who were famous for their brutal strength and bloody way of dealing with the missions assigned to them.

The Arezo family who was leading this group of mercenaries, about a month ago, had received a little from one of the six ancient families, the Parada family the ruling family of the neighboring Iskar city.

Iskar City, in front of the inner gate of the Parada family mansion.

"Welcome to Iskar city, Mr. Arezo," Montaser, the butler of the Parada family, said in a respectful voice, looking at the guests before him.

Standing in front of Montaser are three men of strong appearance, a man of old age with a muscular body and short gray hair, and two young men who appear to be in their thirties, both with black hair, standing behind the old man.

"Montaser, it's been a long time, and you seem to have grown stronger again. Just how the hell can you become so strong at such an old age." The old man named Lester Arezo after noticing the aura that was surrounding Montaser, said in a serious voice and curious eyes.

"It seems like you haven't changed at all since we last met" Seeing Lester's undying actions, Montaser couldn't help but sigh inwardly and calmly answer.

"Haha, you don't seem to have changed much either, old man," Lester replied with a chuckle

"Are these your sons?" Trying to change the subject, Montaser said, pointing to the two young men who were standing behind Lester.

"Yes, they are my eldest sons, and they are the ones who now handle most of the family matters," Lester said with a small smile on his face, before pointing to the young man on the right and saying, "This is my first son, Jimmy."

"Mr. Montaser, it is an honor to meet a legend like you," the man named Jimmy said in a respectful voice, looking at Montaser.

"And this is my second son, Tom," Lester said, looking at the young man on the left.

"We've heard a lot from you, sir. It's an honor," Tom said politely. Montaser was a man famous all over the continent for his strength and accomplishments. It's only natural that any young warrior would want to meet such a legend who had reached a measure of strength that is hard to imagine.

"Thank you for the courtesy," Montaser said, before extending his hand toward the door in a gentlemanly manner and saying, "Welcome to the Parada Palace."

Thus, after entering the Mansion and the following Montaser, Lester and the two young men managed to reach one of the main reception rooms, where each of them had a sofa to sit around a small reception table filled with many types of appetizers and drinks.

"Please be comfortable, the head of the family will arrive soon," as for Montaser, After leaving these words behind, he left the room leaving the letter and the two young men alone.

(Not only did he not welcome our arrival, he even dared to make us wait alone. It seems that the Parada family is still as arrogant as ever.) The Arezo family is a powerful and feared family throughout the continent. Even the Three Kingdoms will receive them as special guests, but the Parada family who were the ones who asked for their presence, dared to make them wait like this, as if they were worthless, all these thoughts made Lester regret accepting the invitation.

In reality, the Parada family is famous for being a family of arrogant and heartless bastards who does not give any value to human life. And Lester, who had some connections with the Parada family in the past, is sure of this fact. All members of the Parada family are scary characters, the only thing they care about is themselves and their family power.

This is why, Lester hesitated a lot in accepting a family request to visit, but it is known that refusing the invitation of one of the six ancient families, even if it was the Parada family, which became the weakest of them, could not be without any consequences, for this reason, Lester had no choice but to accept the request of the Parada family and come to Iskar city. And knowing the Parada family's manners Lester was already expecting such treatment so he could only grit his teeth and wait patiently.

Open!

In fact, it didn't take long before the door opened and Montaser entered the room accompanied by a young man with a tall and strong physique with black hair and a calm expression. Seeing the young man approaching him, Lester and his sons stood up from their seats respectfully.

"Mr. Lester, thank you for accepting the invitation, and welcome to the Iskar city," said Fray, reaching out to shake Lester's hand politely

(So ​​this is the new Family head. He's indeed very young.) Looking at the young man's hand, Lester thought calmly before extending his hand as well, saying, "Thank you, for Mr. Parada."

" Come on, let's sit down, "Fray

----

"What!? You want us to become disciples to the Parada family?" As he and his two sons struggled to control their anger at the words they had just heard, Lester replied in a harsh voice.

"Yes, Mr. Elster, what you heard is correct. If Mr. Elster agrees to this offer, the Arezo family will have a lot of benefits, and we too will be happy to have a strong family like you under our wing," said Fray in a calm voice.

In fact, one of the most important steps of Fray's plan to deal with a five-star dungeon is to bring in an outside force to help, and he chose the Arezo family for a lot of reasons. Firstly, the Arezo Family is very powerful, their military power can be compared to even the largest powers on the continent, secondly, because they have been mercenaries for a long time, the members of this family have high experience in dealing with monsters and various dangers, and thirdly...

" Benefits!? What are these benefits!?? " Lester asked curiously, looking at Fray with an interested expression.

They are mercenaries and they can be bought
