Chapter 485: Counterattack (Part 1)

With his strength, he could rush over in the shortest time possible.

"I see. Thank you, General Lin. It’s fortunate that you arrived in time," Amalia nodded.

Albert Lin waved his hand and turned his sharp gaze towards Ángel Solana, "Is he one of the witnesses?"

"Yes, Josu Urrutikoetxea is already dead, but having him is enough," Amalia replied.

Before they came to find them, she had even prepared herself for the possibility that both of them might die.

Unexpectedly, they managed to keep Ángel Solana alive, giving them even more confidence.

Albert Lin pondered, "If Raithwall Yoder knows that Ángel Solana is in our hands, he’ll definitely be on guard."

Amalia had thought the same thing, "That’s why I want them to think that Ángel Solana is already dead. Although we killed the people sent by the Yoder family, we didn’t succeed in saving the two of them."

"That’s a good plan, but relying solely on a fake corpse might not enough to fool them," Albert Lin remarked.

"That’s why we need the help of the people from Mercenary Market. With their support, even without preparing a fake corpse, we might still succeed."

Amalia had already figured it out.

Albert Lin looked at her in surprise.

It was impressive that she could come up with all this in such a short time.

He then smiled, "Well said, ’Three men make a tiger, rumor can kill people.’ Since you’re so confident, go ahead and tell me your plan. If there’s anything you need my help with, just say the word."

"How can we make them believe?" Albert Lin asked, recognizing it as the biggest challenge.

Amalia smiled and looked at Ernesto.

Ernesto understood immediately and patted his chest, "Leave it to me. I’ve been around here for so many years; I know how what to do."

"Alright then, we’ll leave it to you. Let us know if you have any news. General Lin and I will take Ángel Solana away for now," Amalia said.

Ernesto nodded his head and casually disappeared into another alley.

Amalia then explained Ernesto’s identity to General Lin.

Knowing that Ernesto was trustworthy, Albert Lin felt reassured.

The local snakes in Mercenary Market were indeed more useful than they were.

Amalia and Varela Yoder had made quite a commotion with their battle.

It didn’t take long for the news of their battle to reach Raithwall Yoder’s ears.

Hearing that Amalia had allegedly killed all three of them, Raithwall Yoder reacted with rage and disbelief, which was quite unusual for him.

"Master, both Varela Yoder and the others were very strong. How could Amalia have the ability to killed all three of them? Could it be it was a trap set by her?" the steward couldn’t believe it.

"Besides this explanation, nothing else makes sense. It’s impossible that Amalia really killed them," Raithwall Yoder said vehemently, hurling a piece of inkstone at them in anger.

Some of the ink splattered onto their bodies.

"Stop wasting time speculating and go find out whether Josu Urrutikoetxea and Ángel Solana are alive or dead, and if they’ve fallen into Amalia’s hands!" he roared.

Both of them quickly complied, not daring to provoke Raithwall Yoder’s wrath any further, and hastily left the study room.

By evening, the investigation reports were laid out before Raithwall Yoder.

The information was presented exactly as Amalia had instructed.

Ernesto was very efficient; within just an hour or two, the news was spread that Ángel Solana had disappeared in the aftermath of a battle between powerful spiritual cultivators.

The reports even included some "testimonies" that were worded convincingly, making it seem like the events were genuine.

Even Raithwall Yoder hadn’t anticipated that in places like Mercenary Market, where mercenaries congregated, there were plenty of people who would spread rumors.

The more false the news, the more believable it became.

"Father, do you think we need to do anything more? The person who could testify against Kenny Lin is already dead. Isn’t he doomed now?" Hernan Yoder asked cautiously.

Raithwall Yoder snorted, tossing the reports back onto his desk, "You fools. Do you really think that only Eduardo Norierga’s two accomplices can testify? Eduardo Norierga’s family members are still alive, and now they’re probably in the Lin family’s hands."

"What should we do then? If they’re convinced by the Lin family to testify, Kenny Lin will be vindicated and might come after us again," Hernan Yoder said worriedly.

"Who told you that Eduardo Norierga’s family members’s words must be true?" Raithwall Yoder sneered.

Hernan Yoder was momentarily stunned, then delighted, "Father, you’re right. I understand now. I’ll take care of it right away."

Even if Eduardo Norierga’s family members fell into the hands of the Lin family, what did it matter?

When the public believed that they had been coerced into giving their reluctant, incriminating testimony, who would believe that Kenny Lin was innocent?

By then, he would be even more suspicious and couldn’t clear his name.

In the Mercenary market, there were no secrets about the battle.

Within two days, Amalia’s achievements had spread far and wide.

Everyone eventually learned that Raithwall Yoder’s attempt to ambush her had backfired spectacularly.

He had sent three top spiritual cultivators to kill Amalia, but instead, he lost all three of them.

Varela Yoder, known as Raithwall Yoder’s notorious enforcer, had a reputation for handling many of Raithwall Yoder’s underhanded dealings.

Over the years, Varela Yoder had covertly eliminated thousands of the Yoder family’s rivals or enemies, often he even wiping out the entire families with ruthless efficiency.

Many people wished for the deaths of Raithwall Yoder and Varela Yoder, they’re working tirelessly and facing numerous life-threatening situations to grow strong enough to one day exact their revenge.

Now, their goal was half achieved.

Although they hadn’t delivered the killing blow themselves and missed some of the satisfaction, the death of an enemy was still worth celebrating.

In order to thank Amalia for killing Varela Yoder and his brothers, in various forums there’s an influx of new users that made comments on the article about Kenny Lin, leading to fierce arguments with the Yoder family’s supporters.
