The Reincarnation of the Tough Empress Being a Neglected Wife
Eps. 118

They had been several hours walking and because it was noon Alex decided that they should take a break to fill their stomachs for a while.

"Jleb's son." Violetta suddenly threw a dagger that she carried a few centi past the head of a soldier.

"Don't just be busy underestimating someone you have to focus more on the circumstances around so as not to bother others" said Violetta as she took back her dagger that was successfully stuck in the head of a snake.

The soldier was stunned to see what Violetta was doing. He was indeed unaware of the existence of the snake that was ready to attack him from the tree branch behind him.

Fortunately, the beautiful woman who always secretly he and his partner underestimated even though only through a look of disdain and sneer in the heart was swift to attack the snake.

"Stop looking at my wife. "Alex's stern rebuke made the soldier come to his surprise.

"Ma sorry captain" said the soldier.

"Te te rima ka the madam." He stuttered again and was a bit awkward.

"It's no big deal" Violetta said as she ate the bread Alex handed her.

"We should continue the journey because it will be very dangerous if we have not arrived at the next post by evening" said Alex.

In the middle of the journey Alex and Violetta looked at each other and nodded as if to code each other. Finally Alex gave a warning by raising his palm and then put the index finger in front of his lips so that they all stopped stepping and did not make any sound.

It turned out that the two of them were aware of the presence of some people who had no idea who was inside the forest.

"Find a place to hide" Alex said slowly.

Violetta peeked towards the sound of that person's footsteps and went back into hiding.

"They're armed." Her speech.

"Are they part of the soldiers on guard?" ask one of the soldiers.

"This is not the guard area of the headquarters. There were also no reports that there would be guards outside." said Alex.

"It looks like they're after someone" said one of them after seeing the people's gestures.

"You guys stay where you are" Alex said, settling around their hideout toward the men.

"You mustn't leave." prevent one of the soldiers from seeing Violetta about to step away.

"You guys stay here I have to help Alex" said Violetta .

"Don't be rash and be a burden." chirped one of the soldiers.

"Stop looking down on people and follow the orders of your superiors. I'm not a soldier so that order doesn't mean anything to me." Violetta said and left the soldiers.

Because of Alex's orders, they can't do anything even if they want to. That's the rule they have to follow. All orders of superiors must not be disputed.

Alex was surprised to see Violetta was already preparing to attack one of the people they were intai who was a bit away from his partner.

"Why don't you just stay somewhere safe, baby?" muttered the young man with a worried look.

"Bug..." Violetta hit the man's nape and immediately grabbed his body so as not to cause a falling sound.

"Faithful." said Violetta as she wiped the sweat off her forehead.

He managed to tightly bind the person's body and close his mouth so as not to cause a sound when conscious.

This body is very weak. Just handling one person I'm already quite tired." murmured Violetta .

"At least we have 1 person to be used as a source of information" he muttered again while staring at the person who was still unconscious.

In his place Alex has managed to subvert some people in almost the same way as Violetta. To remove a separate member.

"Wait a minute." exclaimed one of those people who was left 5 out of the previous 12 people.

"What's the boss? " ask one of the members.

"Didn't you feel like we're getting fewer?" ask the person called the boss.

"True as well." said the members and they all started to look around warily.

"Is there an attack from the enemy or is there a beast?" say one of them.

"Stay alert and don't be scattered. Looks like we're being targeted right now" said the boss.

"Has our target been aware of our whereabouts and counterattacked us boss?" ask members.

"It seems we have to use firearms to deal with them" whispered Alex as he arrived near Violetta while handing a gun to Violetta .

"Yes they are quite vigilant now" said Violetta upon seeing the men taking refuge behind a large tree.

"Dor's... Akh...." Violetta shot and managed to hit the arm of one of her opponents.

"Dor Dor dor." Shootouts were inevitable between them.

After quite a while finally the group of people ran out of bullets. Violetta and Alex are the same. Of the 5 people only 3 left including the boss because 2 of them managed Violetta and Alex to fall with bullets.

"Heh, beautiful girl, how can you get lost in the woods, do you need a friend?" the boss said he saw Violetta coming out of hiding.

"Silver...." Violetta unceremoniously kicked the man to the ground.

"Basin' brazen." said the boss annoyed.

"What are you waiting for? Attack them." exclaimed the boss as Alex stood next to Violetta while his men were still dumbfounded to see a cute girl attacking their boss.

Violetta's body posture and face shape without makeup does look like a teenage girl.

They all fought with their bare hands. In a short time 3 people were successfully subverted by the two of them.

"It looks like they're not from the group of people who attacked us before" Alex said.

"Yes, they are too weak when compared to the people before. "saut Violetta .

"We'll know after asking them" Alex said.

The new soldiers who had come out of hiding were only able to gawk. They saw Violetta's actions from where they were hiding.

They are actually quite capable of overcoming the group. But, because Alex suspects they are the same Professional group as the ones who previously dealt with his group, Alex is hesitant to allow a new member who has never fought for real with that enemy to come forward.

"Not enough time to get to the next post. We better find a suitable place to rest and interrogate them. "break up Alex.

They finally set up a tent inside the forest after finding a flat surface that was wide enough to set up a tent.

As for the 4 people they caught, they were already securely tied to the tree trunk near their tent.

"Have they opened their voices?" alex asked one of the soldiers he gave the task of finding information from the 4 people.

"They are still silent captains." said the soldier.

"Let me try." said Violetta .
