Mercenary Harem in Murim Novel

"Because both of them have brown hair. I feel like my character will be forgotten if I do nothing, so I joined the fight." Sherly answered with a bright smile, which caused the other two to frown.

"That’s ridiculous. How can your hair color be the reason for this commotion?"

Jessica couldn’t understand how her brain worked. She shook her head and looked at Leo. Her gaze screamed for help.

Not even the perfect secretary could babysit these girls. Leo smiled wryly as he approached them.

"If you care about hair color, just dye it. And Astrid, I told you to control your emotion, right? You could just ask for Coco to subdue the girl if she bit you."

Hearing his voice, the three girls looked back. Sherly smiled wryly and Astrid blushed in embarrassment. The Chief’s daughter didn’t know who he was, but she had a feeling that he was important.

"And you..."

Just as she noticed that Leo was important, he also noticed who she was immediately. She was someone important in the novel, someone who became a part of the main story.

"Your name is Lee Hae-In, right?"

Her real name was Lee Hae-In.

She was a Barbarian tribe Chief’s daughter and the protagonist’s future love interest. Her personality was wild and aggressive, and her talent in sword skills was above average.

Well, forget about above average. She could level a city if she was serious.

But, as a wild woman who grew up in a harsh environment, she was not a civilized person.

"What’s a barbarian Chief’s daughter doing here? Did you run away?"

Naturally, he already knew her reason, but that wasn’t the right way to ask.

"Runaway? HAHAHA! What a joke! I came to look for the man who dares to attack our tribe! And I am not a barbarian! I am a proud Barbarian Warrior, and you should address me as such!"

Her reaction was exactly as Leo had imagined.

Barbarians were known for their pride and their love for fighting. They were headstrong, and their customs and traditions were different from the rest of the world.

"Revenge, huh?" Leo mused, "But for someone who want to get revenge, you were pretty beat up. If not for my subordinate, aren’t you gonna die from your wounds?"

"Die? Don’t joke around! I won’t die that easily!" She glared at him.

"But your limbs were cut off." He cut her off and put his hand on her head, "Even now, you can’t even move. I thought a barbarian won’t let someone touch their head easily?"

"Shut up! You are just a coward who hides behind his power and trickery! You don’t deserve to speak!"

She growled and struggled against the thread, but her effort was futile.

Leo couldn’t help but admire her determination and spirit. And he had an idea.

"I know who killed your father."

At that moment, Lee Hae-In’s expression changed. She stopped struggling and stared at him with wide eyes. Her lips quivered, and she couldn’t say anything.

"His killer is within the Murim Alliance, and I plan to crush them. So, you can come with us, and we can take revenge together."

Leo didn’t expect her to agree.

However, it seemed that he had struck a chord within her. The flame of revenge ignited in her eyes, and her mouth slowly curved into a wicked grin.

"Ha-hahaha! Why should I join you? I can kill the person in the Murim Alliance myself! You can’t stop me!"

Lee Hae-In laughed madly, her face distorted with anger and excitement.

’This crazy bitch... Her personality is worse than the others.’

Leo wanted to shake his head, but he held it in. He stared at the Crazy Bitch coldly and pulled his hand away from her head.

"Then I guess you can die here. I was about to forgive you for attacking one of my people by making you my dog, but I don’t need a disobedient mutt."

He shrugged and turned away.

Sensing his seriousness, Sherly was already away from the scene. She also took Astrid with her and evacuated to the corner of the infirmary.

The Crazy Bitch wasn’t stupid. She could sense danger and knew that she shouldn’t mess with Leo. But, her pride as a Barbarian Chief’s daughter couldn’t allow her to bow down to a coward who hides behind his power and tricks.

Still... If she died, then who would take revenge for her father’s death?

As a Chief’s daughter, she was taught to hold onto her pride and never let it go. And, she wouldn’t let anyone tell her what to do.

But this time, it was time to throw away that useless pride. Pride wouldn’t let her to have revenge.

"Fine, fine, fine! I’ll be your dog, okay?! Just let me have revenge!" Experience more on empire

She shouted loudly, her eyes fixed on Leo’s back.

The Crazy Bitch had bowed down to someone else.

But, it was for her father’s sake.

"Good, good. Then, I will have you bark for me alright?"

Leo’s lips curved into a grin, and he turned back.

"Now, now. Be a good girl and apologize to Astrid. I don’t want my subordinates to get hurt unnecessarily."

"Apologize?!"

"Yes, say sorry to her."

Lee Hae-In’s face scrunched up, but she eventually sighed. She was stubborn, but she wasn’t stupid.

"Sorry, sorry, sorry! Now, please, just take me out of this weird place and let me get my revenge!"

"Not yet. There is still something we need to do."

Leo looked at Jessica, and the threads released.

"Firstly, we need to lay the groundwork. Jessica, it’s time to spend some money. We will upgrade the base, increase our recruitment, and start to make our influence known."

"Understood, Leader."

"Also, where is Chiaki? I need her help for something."

"She is in the infirmary’s basement, experimenting with Qi."

"Alright, then I will go to her. Sherly, you follow me. Astrid, you can train with the other mercenaries. The villagers have arrived, right? Make sure to maintain a good relationship with them."

"Yes, sir!"
