Chapter 458 Back Again
Time flew by again, and just like that..... the year was almost coming to an end, as it was already the last week of November.
And currently making their way towards the Baymardian dock, were Landon and his gang.
The chilly air immediately caressed Landon's cheeks.... and the sounds of the people talking, exclaiming and laughing, quickly greeted Landon's ears.
Home Sweet Home!
Stepping onto Baymard, even though the soldiers didn't readily show it facially, they were secretly pleased and overly happy to be back home again.
Many of them missed their girlfriends, boyfriends, husbands, wives, children, parents, in-laws and other important people in their lives.
They had been out for close to 4 months, and even though they were very happy to serve their empire, help other people and do amazing missions.... they still got lonely once in a while out there when they thought of their loved ones.
For many of them, after reporting to the barracks.... as per the rules, those who went out on missions could get a 2-week or 1-week vacation if they wanted to.
So many of them quickly applied for their leave.
Of course, it would take a few days for it to be approved.
But nonetheless, the soldiers decided to quickly see their loved ones now and head on back to the barracks before nightfall.
And so many of them showed up to pick their children up from school, and even decided to surprise their wives or husbands who were working in public areas like the mall.
It was a touching moment for many of them.
Their families screamed in shock and hugged them tightly while crying from joy, and those around all clapped as well.
And by the end of their surprise visit, the soldiers all went back to the barracks again, as they had to wait for their leave to be approved before they went on vacation.
.
As for the Prisoners and Princes, when they had previously made their way out of the ship..... their entire bodies trembled from shock, as they observed the scenery before them.
They blinked and rubbed their eyes multiple times, as they felt that Baymard was unreal.
They all looked at Landon again as if trying to see through his soul..... but after looking for what seemed like ages, they still couldn't see past the dude.
Over the journey here, these prisoners..... especially the S-class ones, had all learnt that these Baymardians were mysterious and not to be messed with.
The S-class prisoners didn't even know how they had gotten this far.
In their minds, one moment they were in their Caronian prison cells, the next moment they were already tied up and far away from the Caronian Capital city.
In short, they didn't understand how they could pass out without anyone knocking them or injuring them.
This didn't make any sense at all!
But nonetheless, the S-class prisoners weren't too phased at all..... as they still looked like they wanted to cut down the innocent people that they spotted.
"Hahahhaha!
Do you think that this alone would scare me?
Like I promised... I will still tear you limb from limb so as to study you.
After all.... they don't call me the Doctor for nothing!"
"Ahh!
Look at all this food around me?
Just looking at the people below makes me salivate!
I wonder if the prison guards here will taste any better!"
"_"
.
As the S-class prisoners talked about how they were going to snatch up their next victims... Landon immediately contacted the Prison and informed them of how many prisoners they had at hand.
And after waiting for a while, several prisoner transport buses drive into the coastal region.
The prisoners were then boarded and shipped away.
Of course as for the S-class prisoners, after arriving at the prison, they were tranquillized again..... and by the time they woke up, they were now untied and freely locked up in their cells.
The cell was nothing they had ever seen before.
And honestly, they highly doubted that they would have a chance to escape to attack any of the guards.
Dammit!
They sat down and thought of how to overcome this problem.... but at the moment, nothing seemed to come to mind.
And for the first time, they truly felt trapped and imprisoned.
.
As for the Princes, they hadn't given Landon a moment's rest.... so he couldn't wait to send them off quickly.
"Hey!.... I'm talking to you!
Where are you taking us, and what do you want to do with us?"
"Yeah!
What do you want?
I know that you think that we're very handsome.
But just so you know, we don't swing that way at all!"
"I don't know what our evil sister has told you, but we like women!"
"Yeah, we like women!
So how can you be so shameless as to what us as your concubines?"
"_"
Landon looked at the trio speechlessly and couldn't help but facepalm himself.
Who the hell said anything about taking them in as concubines?
He too liked women alright?
And even if he liked men, why would he want to take in a group of parrots?
He wouldn't even have one night's sleep if he did.
"Gag them."
"Yes, your majesty!"
"Hmmmmmmmm!"
"Hmmmmmmmmmmmm!"
"Hmmmmmmmmmmm!"
Landon massaged his temples slightly and sighed faintly.
These princes were too exhausting to be around with.
Ever since they had left Ngum city, they had left these Princes gagged up.
And every time that he un-gagged them for mealtime, they would always spring up new hypotheses as to why they Landon had taken them away.
So Landon wasn't the least bit shocked by their new hypotheses on what they thought was going on.
Of course as requested by Adrian, the princes were immediately taken to the Caronian barracks in District B.
Since the Carona pays for the biweekly salaries for these Caronian soldiers training here.... the Princes would only get their first paycheck later on.
So Landon had immediately made sure that these spoiled princes had enough money that could last them till then.
For sure, Adrian had also sent down pocket money for them.... but he had instructed Landon to give the bare minimum monthly.
One had to know that they were Princes.... so even though they would get the same paycheck as those in their ranks, Adrian had kept a lot more money on the side for them as well.
But... Landon could only give them the money if it was an emergency, or if they had changed for the better.
And so with the Princes and Prisoners sorted out, Landon immediately made his way to the castle to freshen up.
.
Stepping into the castle, they quickly made his way into his room and didn't even bother to look for anyone.
Because by this time, both Lucy, mother Kim, Grace and mother Winnie would still be teaching in school.
And with Lucius and the rest out as well, Landon was the only one within the castle.
Everyone was busy, so he chose to see them later on tonight.
As for now, he decided to visit King Micheal again.
After close to 4 months.... the man's injuries should've been at least 90% healed by now.
So it was time to sign that contract!
