To be honest, although Chuck was somewhat prepared in his heart because of the message Lee Na-eun sent a night in advance, he completely didn't expect to encounter an unexpected sneak attack the moment he stepped into the cave.
And the kind clearly carrying killing intent at that.
Three simple wooden spears thrust towards his three vital points—head, heart, and crotch—from three different directions. The speed, it must be said, was quite fast.
If it were Chuck when he had just killed the python, or even just killed the wolf pack, he might have inevitably suffered some injuries. At least on this level, Chuck was quite approving of these three dark-skinned women.
But on other levels, they weren't good enough.
The first two of the three wooden spears were easily dodged by him. As for the third one thrusting at his crotch, with a slight downward press of his hand, he grasped the spear tip accurately and firmly in his hand.
Then, facing the terrified South American woman in front of him, giving her a taste of her own medicine, in the span of half a breath, he took a step forward, pushed off the ground with his calf. His powerful leg muscles instantly erupted with ultimate force, delivering a groin kick right between this South American woman's legs.
Thud.
With a muffled sound, the South American woman's eyes instantly widened massively, her pupils almost bulging out. Her tall and tight body actually shot straight up into the air for a full meter or more, and then she retched bleurgh.
Then, unable to even let out a scream, she fell to the ground like a ragdoll. Accompanied by a sound of water flowing and a salty, foul smell filling the air, the area between her legs was instantly soaked with foul-smelling urine.
And the two Black women on Chuck's left and right sides behind him, having thrust their long spears into thin air, and watching their companion being kicked flying helplessly, were dumbfounded and didn't even have time to react before that tall figure instantly closed in.
Thud, thud.
Two more scalp-tingling sounds rang out. The lower abdomens of the two Black women caved in like smashed cakes. Blood spurted from their mouths and noses as they flew backward, finally crashing to the ground, fresh blood gurgling from their mouths like a fountain.
"A sneak attack? Young people these days have no martial ethics."
Chuck frowned and complained twice, then stood up straight again and adjusted his slightly messy clothes.
In a flash of lightning, he had completely incapacitated the three people surrounding and attacking him. If Valentina saw this scene, her heart would inevitably take another hit.
Rolling his shoulders, Chuck then came to the sides of the three fallen people and checked them one by one.
The two Black women, apparently due to internal bleeding, after frantically vomiting blood, spasmed violently while frothing blood from their mouths in shock. After just a while, they stopped moving and completely stopped breathing.
And the remaining Mexican woman, who was forced by a kick from him, was relatively luckier. Besides losing continence on the spot and having the bones on her inner thighs shattered, she barely kept her dog life.
The only remaining South American woman, retaining a trace of consciousness, struggled on the ground. Chuck's figure was reflected in her blurred vision.
"Chinese... kung fu..."
After leaving this sentence, her eyes rolled back and she passed out completely.
Seeing this, Chuck raised his hand, looked at his bloodstained fist, and frowned slightly.
To be honest, when he struck just now, he didn't actually have the intent to kill. But even so, a casual counterattack still resulted in two dead and one severely injured.
Killing for the first time, Chuck's mood was much calmer than expected. There was no stress reaction like falling to his knees vomiting or trembling all over as seen on TV, but inevitably there was still a trace of discomfort.
Fortunately, this discomfort quickly disappeared.
Unlike Valentina back then, these three had shown obvious hostility towards Chuck without any reason when he stayed over previously. Just now, without any grudges or enmity, they suddenly launched a sneak attack on Chuck's vital points.
This kind of trash, keeping them around is only a restless factor, and they are Black to boot, dead is dead.
Stepping over that South American woman who only had one breath left, Chuck wasn't in a hurry to decide the fate of this last attacker. Instead, he looked around and surveyed the silent, empty cave.
Although he couldn't see a single person in his line of sight, his powerful perception quickly detected rustling sounds deep in the cave.
So he stepped quickly into the depths of the cave, and sure enough...
...
Ten minutes later.
"Ah!!!"
After untying everyone, amidst the tearful voices of gratitude from the women, Chuck walked out from deep within the cave together with them. However, upon seeing the three people lying on the ground and the blood all over the floor, a few people still uncontrollably let out terrified screams and fell to the ground.
"Mr. Chuck... they... are they already..."
Lee So-yeon, whose whole person was still in a daze from being betrayed and imprisoned by her companions, saw the bodies of the betrayers in the blink of an eye. The first emotion that surfaced in her heart wasn't relief.
But a bone-piercing chill.
This wasn't her first time facing the death of a companion, but it was her first time facing a companion dying in a struggle between people.
Not to mention, these were three people who originally held weapons, laid out a plan in advance, and held a numerical advantage. Yet they actually ended up like this in the end. Even though Lee So-yeon had long heard countless times about Chuck's extraordinariness from Tang Yumo's mouth, and had raised her expectations time and again in her heart, the power Chuck displayed before her now still made her tremble uncontrollably.
So much so that right now, looking at Chuck again, she could no longer maintain the same calmness and tranquility as before.
Only the fear of the weak towards the strong.
Regarding her inquiry, Chuck just nodded casually.
"If you want to kill, you must be prepared to be counter-killed. I believe they already had this realization in their hearts before they made a move on me. I also ask Miss Lee not to blame me for this."
"Of... of course not... thanks to Mr. Chuck for taking action."
Lee So-yeon responded with a trembling voice, unconsciously lowering her head. She walked forward quickly with her sister to check the condition of the three fallen people.
Chuck turned his head and looked behind him, instantly making the women, including Tang Yumo, gasp.
Similarly, these remaining women all had some expectations regarding Chuck's strength. But even so, killing two people so simply and cleanly, although they were both traitors, also made them feel a bit more awe towards Chuck.
Such a terrifyingly strong man, what if his temperament becomes cruel in the future...
Wouldn't the days waiting for them be hellish?
Fortunately, the concerns and worries in their hearts lessened considerably following Chuck's next sentence.
"No need to be nervous. I will only counterattack those who try to harm me. Otherwise, I will not raise a hand against women."
"Of course, unless someone specifically asks me to..."
While speaking, Chuck smiled, raised his hand, and made a motion of spanking a butt.
These words full of erotic suggestion combined with that familiarly lewd action made the women, just by looking at it, feel that he probably did similar things a lot normally. Thus, they all blushed.
Coupled with the lustful impression Chuck had long established in their hearts, the originally chilling atmosphere actually eased up slightly because of this somewhat lewd vibe.
"Elena is still alive!"
Right at this moment, Lee So-yeon's exclamation rang out from behind. The women paused, then came forward one after another to check.
Upon seeing that the Mexican woman named Elena had only passed out and still had a breath left, the atmosphere became heavy again.
"Then what... should we do now?"
"Should we help treat her injuries?"
"But they just wanted to harm everyone."
"How about asking Mr. Chuck's opinion?"
"But Mr. Chuck spared her life, it should mean he wants us to decide."
"Elena she... clearly wasn't like this before."
Surrounding the unconscious South American woman Elena, even the women of the Dedication Faction showed troubled expressions on their faces, discussing one after another.
Lee So-yeon squatted beside Elena, and after confirming she wasn't in immediate life-threatening danger for the time being, she suddenly felt her body lighten and plopped down on the ground.
Looking at Elena in a miserable state before her, her heart was equally hesitant.
Compared to the two Black companions who had completely stopped breathing—Tasha and Chloe—this companion from Mexico, Elena, although also a firm Stay-behind Faction member, her approach was the mildest among the three.
Originally, when they had just been coerced and bound, the other two Black companions named Tasha and Chloe intended to harden their hearts and tie up everyone, including the sisters, and even kill them directly. It was Elena who spoke up to dissuade them, buying the two sisters a chance to live.
Although Lee So-yeon knew she wanted to use her, to some extent, it also saved the sisters' lives.
But after all, she was a traitor who took the initiative to attack her companions. If they weren't decisive at this time, she could possibly become a hidden danger again in the future...
Thinking of this, Lee So-yeon hesitated again and again, ultimately unable to make a decision.
But just as she was planning to stagger up from the ground, wanting to seek Chuck's opinion...
Suddenly, Lee Na-eun, who had left her side at some unknown time, suddenly appeared from behind the circle of people.
She was seen holding a bloodstained wooden spear in her hand. With a stiff expression, she passed by Tang Yumo and Lee So-yeon, came in front of the unconscious Elena, and slowly raised the wooden spear.
"Ahhh!!!"
Then, under the astonished gazes of the surrounding women, with an expression of extreme terror, she screamed while fiercely stabbing the wooden spear in her hand into Elena's chest!
"Gurgle..."
With a squelch, the Mexican woman, who had already been kicked by Chuck until she only had half a life left, was solidly pierced through the chest like this. A large amount of fresh blood instantly poured out of her mouth, and within a few breaths, she completely stopped moving.
Blood slowly spread on the ground, and the smell of blood permeated the entire cave.
"Bleurgh—"
Seeing this scene, someone finally couldn't bear it. They staggered up one after another, rushed to the corner, supported themselves on the cave wall, and started vomiting. They threw up the precious food they had just eaten for lunch along with stomach acid completely.
Lee So-yeon stiffened rigidly in place, unable to believe it. Watching her sister leave the wooden spear in her hand in the dead Elena's chest just like that, kneeling on the ground with trembling legs, covering her face and letting out bursts of helpless crying, she only felt a tingle in the corner of her eyes.
So she immediately got up, stepped forward, hugged her sister's shoulders, and while comforting her in a low voice, shed tears of pain together with her sister.
Chuck, who had been standing on the inner side of the cave watching all this from beginning to end, looked at the women who were crying, vomiting, and terrified. He first shook his head helplessly, but finally his gaze gradually shifted to Lee Na-eun.
A trace of imperceptible surprise flashed in his eyes.
Before, his attention had always been on her sister Lee So-yeon. He didn't expect this Lee Na-eun to be truly unexpected.
Although she wasn't as good at leadership as her sister, her observation and judgment skills were superior. Not only did she predict the possible riot a night in advance, but even after making a judgment, she acted without dragging her feet, which could be called ruthless and decisive.
These two sisters, whether from appearance or personal qualities, could indeed be called a top-tier pair, possessing the qualifications to enter his harem.
And so, a riot that could be called an unprovoked disaster finally ended in a brutal manner.
Chuck originally wanted to use this to test the waters, to see if he could take this opportunity to directly annex all the people in this settlement. But after communicating briefly with Lee So-yeon, he helplessly realized that under the circumstances of this just happening, even if Lee So-yeon could adjust, the remaining women were in a dazed state after extreme terror...
It was very hard to make important decisions affecting their future lives at this time.
So Chuck, having no other choice, could only use a portion of the supplies he brought to conduct a simple trade with Lee So-yeon again, then took his leave and headed home.
However, although this meeting ended hastily because of the riot, Lee So-yeon, unlike before, personally escorted Chuck all the way to the jungle ramp where they used to meet.
Her eyes still bore the bloodshot traces left from crying. Lee So-yeon looked at Chuck with a gaze full of guilt and gratitude, and bowed deeply.
As the loose collar swayed slightly, the exquisite, snowy white collarbones and perfectly proportioned breasts inadvertently attracted Chuck's gaze, making his heart itch.
"Sorry, Mr. Chuck. Not only was my life saved by you, but I also made you make a wasted trip. I really don't know how I can ever repay you..."
Seeing this, Chuck stroked his chin.
Her attitude remained impeccable, but these words made Chuck somewhat dissatisfied.
Not knowing how to repay, saying it like this while bowing, could it be that she expects others to really not care about repayment?
Chuck was not a selfless person, and never intended to be polite with her from the beginning. Now that Lee So-yeon said this, he simply cut straight to the chase.
"If you don't know, then just let me sleep with you once."
"Sleep..."
Lee So-yeon, whose heart was originally full of guilt, upon hearing this sentence that completely didn't hide its lust, felt the corners of her lips twitch uncontrollably twice.
"At this point, we are no longer strangers. There are some things we don't need to keep hiding. It just so happens there are only the two of us here now."
As Chuck's words fell, a meaningful smile hung on his face. Holding the bamboo basket in his hand, he walked slowly forward, closing the distance between the two step by step.
Lee So-yeon's pupils subsequently trembled slightly, and her body instinctively leaned backward. Finally, Chuck stopped one step in front of her, bent down, and placed the bamboo basket full of bananas and wild fruits in front of her.
The smile on the corners of his lips finally carried a hint of mockery.
"Lee So-yeon, you don't really think that I've been doing 'trades' with you all this time for these worthless wild fruits and wild vegetables, do you?"
